How to Save Money at Dr. Jordan Baker, 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.

The office staff was great! Friendly and had everything our doggies needed ready for pickup! They also have two locations in Warrick county and open on Saturdays which is a plus!

Very nice staff, took good care of my Dog Simon who was due for his Rabies shot. Also a nagging flea problem that I discussed with Dr. Elisha Perrin who set me up with a flea medicine that I had been chasing with no luck. Already, after a couple days he is so much better and happy. THANKS to all of you !

Told us our Westie would not last more than a week or so and that was more than a year and a half ago! They sold us on very expressive treatments that didn't work. Had to take her elsewhere where the problem was a simple fix. Would not recommend unless you have money to blow on experimenting on your pet! They put my wife and I through emotional and financial hell!! Total rip off!!

I was the driver for my daughter-in-law. She and my son have a little dog(9yrs). "Sugar" started a cough yesterday around noon. She got progressively worse throughout the night. We called our vet as soon as they opened. Without going into detail they said that they couldn't see her till Monday. So my d-i-l called 3 or 4 more vets in our area getting the same answer - not today. After talking with my niece, made a call to Warrick Co. Veterinary and got an appointment for 10 AM. My daughter-in-law was very impressed with their whole office. "Sugar" has a pretty severe upper respiratory infection. Waiting for 2 more days would not have been helpful! She was taken care of by Dr. John Baker. D-i-l said he was so kind and personable. He told her that their office always sees "sick" patients! Needless to say, Dr. John is Sugar's new Dr.
