How to Save Money at Jesup Veterinary 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.

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.

We have been taking our Persian cats to Shelly for the past, at least 15-20+ years. Her & her staff have always been so caring, kind & helpful every time we’ve come in. Knowing us & our kitties by name when we come in. Prices are so reasonable as well. She saved one of our cat’s lives, & I will forever be grateful for the extra years I was able to spend with him because of her.

Would definitely give zero stars if I could! Worst customer service I’ve ever come across at a veterinarian clinic!! I used to work at Horizon Veterinary Clinic and the doctor and staff were so compassionate towards ALL animals and the humans as well. This clinic has no compassion whatsoever and I nor anyone I know will NEVER visit this place again. Jesup needs to do better!! If you love your animals look elsewhere!

Jesup Vet clinic is one of the best around! Dr.Reid truly cares about all your animals and knows their name right when you walk in the door. She saved one of my cats this past week after he got hit by a car. If it wasn’t for her he wouldn’t be here. No matter a big problem or something routine your animal is checked over throughly. Thank you to all the amazing staff at Jesup Vet Clinic! I am so thankful for you.

Have taken all my pets there for years. Our German shorthair was having intestinal issues we did everything they asked and switched food to their recommendation and several more appointments we decided to get a 2nd opinion from another vet which figured issue out first go around. The time came for our dogs shots we called to get appointment and they said since we were no longer their patient they wouldn’t do them. Today or dog had accident in the woods and needed stitches and since it was emergency we called beings they are 4 miles away and again rejected. Im not sure why they are so mad snout us getting a 2nd opinion but how distasteful. I would recommend picking any other vet in the state before recommending this joke of a place.
