How to Save Money at Finan 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.

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.

We’ve been taking our pets to Finan for 2 and a half years since my dog was a new puppy. The full staff is extremely kind, willing to answer any questions, and compassionate. My dog has to be seen often, and appointments are never a problem. They’re very accommodating, and I’m glad we found them!

My dog has been going to Finan Animal Hospital for 5 years. No problem is too big or too small. ALL staff (from the front desk, shout out Merlin, nurses, vet techs, support staff) treat each animal and their owners with the utmost compassion and respect. I wish our human healthcare system could do the same. HIGHLY recommend!!

The new facility is icing on the cake and has such a calming quality which gives clients the impetus to continue the kind, positive, and calming approach with their companions throughout their lives. Kudos to Dr. April Finan.

I’ve been taking my dog to Finan Animal Hospital for almost 8 years now. The staff is friendly and all of their doctors are extremely knowledgeable and you can tell they truly care about your animals. Coming into the clinic I feel as if we are apart of their family. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone looking for a vet. Dooby and I can’t wait to come back for his next visit 🐾

Can’t say enough at Finan! From the front desk,CVT’s, and of course the doctors. Dr. Sagan Leaisure my doctor has been taking care of my fur family for years. I love her, full of compassion, kindness, and takes care of my pets as if they were her own. I trust her 100 percent and the staff always makes a call back to see how your dog or cat is doing. I highly recommend Finan and did I mention that all the veterinarians are awesome as well!
