How to Save Money at Rowell Debra DVM
Schedule Regular Vet Visits
One of the best ways to save on vet bills is to prevent expensive health issues before they develop. By scheduling regular wellness checkups, your vet can detect health issues early, helping you to avoid costly treatments and surgeries down the road.
Price Shop for Pet Prescriptions
Oftentimes our fur babies are prescribed human drugs off-label. Your vet is apt to charge more for these medications than you would pay at your local pharmacy. In fact, big-box or chain pharmacies can offer steep discounts. So it’s best to price shop.
Pet Insurance
Most pet insurance providers will pay between 80% and 90% of the vet bill. You can even get coverage for routine care and things like vaccinations and dental cleanings. If you do the math, you’ll most likely find that pet insurance makes financial sense in the long run as well as gives you peace of mind.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting to Know Your New Vet: Essential Questions to Ask
Choosing a new veterinarian is an important decision for any pet owner. You want to find someone who is competent, compassionate, and a good fit for you and your fur baby. To help you get the most out of your first appointment, here's a list of essential questions to ask your new vet:
Tell me about your experience with [pet type].
Different vets have different areas of specialization. Some are experts with cats, some dogs, some pocket pets, and some horses. Knowing that your vet has vast experience treating your specific type of pet can bring you peace of mind.
How do you handle emergencies?
You must know what to do in case of a pet medical emergency. Inquire what after-hours policy the clinic has, whether they have on-site emergency care available, and if they have a relationship with any nearby emergency animal hospitals.
How do you communicate with pet owners?
Good communication is key to building a trusting relationship with your vet. Ask how they prefer to communicate (phone calls, emails, online portal) and how often you can expect to hear from them.
Are there any breed-specific health concerns I should be aware of?
Some breeds are predisposed to certain health conditions. Knowing what to watch out for can help you catch problems early and get your pet the treatment they need.
Do you have any questions for me about my pet?
This is a great question to ask because the answer will show that the vet is interested in getting to know your pet as an individual and is willing to listen to your concerns.
Bonus question: Can I take a tour of your facility?
Getting a feel for the clinic's environment can help you and your pet feel more comfortable during your visits. Remember, you’re not just looking for a veterinarian, you’re looking for a partnership. Do not be afraid to ask these questions and any others you can think of. Any vet worth their salt will be happy to answer them. Because the more informed you are, the better equipped you'll be to make decisions about your pet's care! And that should be every vet’s top priority.

Cat Care Hospital Inc. A few days ago, my mother (who is elderly and uses a walker) had an appointment at this facility to have her cat neutered. Upon her arrival, she managed to get her walker and her cat to the steps where someone must have seen her. A lady (employee) came out and retrieved the cat and went back inside. The steps, even though were few, were too steep for her to climb, having had past knee and hip surgeries, but she had already noticed a handicap ramp when she arrived, so she assumed she could go in that way. After going all that way, she was met by the lady only to be told she couldn't come in that door because her walker was too wide and it wouldn't fit between the cages, etc. The lady then went and got the clipboard with forms to fill out and handed them out to her to fill out. That morning, it was cold and windy, and she was left outside to fill out those forms. I'm completely in disbelief and very disappointed that my mother was left outside in the cold because she was unable to get to the front entrance. I can only imagine that someone in a wheelchair will have the same treatment. This ramp is useless to the disabled, elderly or anyone who can't climb those steps. Code violation? I'm pretty sure, I'll find out.

Needed my kittens seen, so I googled for a vet open near me... this clinic is listed as being open until 7pm. One of the kittens was crying when I went in. Here was my entire conversation with the receptionist, verbatim: Her: I hear some kittens I'm not going to be able to help. (This is the greeting I got) Me: I'm sorry?... Her: I can't help. The vet's not in. Me: Are you closed? I googled this clinic and it says you're open until 7. Her: Just because it says we're open until 7 doesn't mean the vet is here til 7, she left at 5. Me: Oookay. Customer service much? Here's some advice from a fellow cat person. If your vet leaves at 5 then list your clinic as closing at 5 if you can't help anyone. If your hours are wrong or you can't help a potential client, apologize and suggest a nearby place that is still open. This exchange screams to me "I don't care about your business." Your loss.
