How to Save Money at Perry Animal Hospital
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.

I absolutely love all the vet techs, the receptionists and especially Dr Messex. They have always made me feel like my boy is so special that he gets the royal treatment there. They always listen to my concerns and have been very honest and straightforward with me about his whole treatment process. I hate that their prices are high but the service is next level!

We have been going to Perry Animal Hospital for over 20 years. Dr. Burnham, Mrs. Sheryl and staff have always treated our fur children with lots of love and compassion. We highly recommend Perry Animal Hospital for all your animals needs.

I can’t even begin to describe how amazing these guys are! They’re patient, understanding, professional & treat your babies like their own! I have two dogs, one is reactive which makes the process of going to the vet very difficult for both him & me but these guys honestly made it all so easy & they were very accommodating! We will keep coming back for as long as you’ll have us!

I have taken all my animals to Dr. Burnham and his staff for over a decade. They care and love our pets like we do. I would not trust anyone else with my fur babies needs. Doc is always willing to take whatever time to answer any of my questions.

I went to Perry for my dog's annual check up and DhppvAdult, Bordetella( K-9 Cough) and Rabies Annual. The staff was very helpful last week scheduling him and when I arrived the paperwork was waiting. Kyle the Vet assistant was knowledgeable and professional getting him ready for the shots and bloodwork. The visit did not stress my little man out! Thanks for a smooth visit. Not sure Winston will agree!
