How to Save Money at Olive 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.

Dr Shelly has taken care of our sweet Boomer since he was little and suffered from separation anxiety. We are so grateful for her as she was able to help him. Recently after 14 years of life we had to make the hard decision to say goodbye to him. Dr Shelly and her staff was right there with us through it all. We will never forget you and you will always be part of our family. Please if you need a vet we highly recommend Olive Animal Hospital. You will not regret it.

From the moment we walked in, they were so welcoming! The rooms were spacious, clean and felt homey—with an adorable personalized welcome sign for our pup! The technician and vet were both so kind, helpful and friendly too. They even meet him where our pup was comfortable and sat on the floor to do the exam. If you’re looking for a new vet, we recommend them! 🐾

They stayed open late to help our puppy, we were not established clients. They did everything they could for Jack & gave us the best quality of care. This is a wonderful clinic who has the pet’s best interest at the top of their priority. Highly recommend!!

We adopted a rescue dog. Along with the rescue came a complimentary vet exam within 5 days of adopting. So we tried them out! We are so pleased we did! They did a great check up on our new member of our family. We plan to add our other pups to this Animal Clinic as well. We were that impressed!

Just took my Great Pyrenees to her first visit at Olive. She's a very gentle giant but tends to be a big chicken and a spaz when it comes to the vet. All of the folks at Olive were patient, caring, and welcoming. We were in-and-out in less than an hour with "big chicken" being taken care of, and she's now a happy girl again! I've been searching for a regular vet for my 3 furry kids for a long time and have finally found one in Oliver!!! I'd rate them 10-stars if I could.
