How to Save Money at Reilly Mark 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.

He diagnosed my cat, Albert, right away and it has definitely made him better! He is very kind and professional. He answered any questions or concerns that I might have had. The service there is affirdable and not a price gouging clinic like some places are. I highly recommend taking your pet there I will continue to do so.

This place is so good to animal parents and their fur babies. I will never go anywhere else. They know how to be there for you through the rough times and give some of the best customer service I have ever witnessed. I am thankful to be a customer and that my pets are patients. Photos of our fur babies he has treated. One of which he completely saved her life for fractions of the expected cost.

Very knowledgeable and compassionate. The staff have all been great to us and the Dr. is very clear and upfront about everything he does and makes sure you understand all of your options. They have recently helped us though a hard time with our elderly cats final days and we could not have asked for better support. We have taken our cats here for years and will continue to do so for any future pets too.

I would give ZERO stars if I could! The first thing I noticed the office was very warm and stuffy. This doctor couldn't even do a blood draw or know when to stop if it wasn't working. The doctor tried to draw blood from my 10 week old kitten (I understand this can be difficult) but he started digging around with the needle still in the kittens leg to try and get "a little more blood". He tried twice to draw blood and the 2nd time he litterly dug around trying to get more blood. I couldn't believe it! What doctor does that?! The Vet Tech had to tell him to stop! I had a bad feeling when I noticed his hands trembling as he went to draw the blood. He needlessly caused significant pain to this poor kitten. I will never go back.

Dawn sounds like she hates her life every time I’ve called. Very rude
