How to Save Money at Cumberland Animal Clinic

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.

Getting 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 take all 3 of my cats here and they are so great! We have an older cat who has to get blood work every 6 months and the techs do it in the exam room so I can stay with her. We were just there yesterday and they were so patient and sweet with her. I email them questions all the time and they are always so quick to answer me or send over a copy of something when I ask. Great customer service and they treat my babies like they would their own!

My usual vet was short staffed, so I was sent here to do routine dental work for my 11 year old schnauzer. They were super awesome in adjusting my dropoff time for the "surgery" since they were an hour away. They were very thorough with the cleaning and oral health check while she was under and very communicative about the process and costs (average) before and during the cleaning. The pickup went well and I'm overall happy with the results.

Dr. Ramos and the staff are super nice and they made sure my dog Fendi felt welcomed and comfortable on our first visit. I did not like our old vet so I'm very happy to find Cumberland Animal Clinic. She made sure to answer all my questions and provided excellent customer service. Would def recommend you bring your pup here.

Absolutely love the veterinarian. I had been taking my dogs here for the last yet. After some miscommunication over medication. I was told to take my business elsewhere after speaking with fustration about my pet. I emailed and got no response. I was denied access to speak with the vet after having an phone altercation with front desk lady after they told me some misinformation. No apology, no sense of care. This was about my pet and she took this matter personal. This place is a great place just has a bad apple. Thank you to all the people that were great to my pup. It’s not a great feeling to be dismissed as a customer. I really hope you were honest with the staff about that conversation. Listen to people when they tell you who they are. This clinic wasn’t the one for us may be the clinic for you. You loose my trust once I don’t trust you to handle my animals ever again

They have taken care of my pets here for now almost 7 years, the service from the front office to the Vets has always been great, even though we have had a couple of different Vets, The office is great and clean. They do not push services on you for your pets and explain your options in detail. Thank you!
