How to Save Money at Greentown 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.

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 added a new member to our family, her name is Mia, we adopted her March 5 from a family in Indianapolis. Our sweet boy Mickie got extremely sick about a week after Mia came home, come to find out it could have been caused by Giardia from the new pup. Mickie tested negative but Mia came back with three parasites, I should have quarantined, my daughter's pitties were also introduced to her, they were tested and thank goodness they were negative. We have come to Greentown hospital for 15 years and have been very happy with their services. I did call and speak with the front desk and had some questions and requested that a certain person to give me a call back. I have had no phone call and even sent a letter through their website and have not heard a word. At this point I am concerned, I will do whatever it takes to keep my furbabies safe and healthy, this should always be first with the veterinarians as well, it is also their job to make sure everything has been answered and taken care of especially if their is more than one loved one involved. I will EDIT this after I call them and discuss the situation as I absolutely love this vet hospital, then again there is other vets around that can handle situations differently and show more concern than I was shown.

The entire staff at Greentown Animal Hospital is upbeat, caring and welcomes the most challenging patients with the utmost compassion. Dr.Pence provides the best individual treatment available for her patients. Our 15 1/2 year old dachshund/terrier mix with diabetes, heart issues and arthritis went from walks in a stroller to trotting like a puppy again.

I highly recommend the GAH! My cat had to have surgery that included an overnight stay. They kept me fully informed every step of the way and even sent me a pic of him the next morning! I was able to go to work yet still know he was doing well. Thank you GAH!
