How to Save Money at Animal Doctor

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 came here for grooming services while working in Kansas over an eight month period. And the dogs couldn’t have been happier! I loved that They got groomed on a monthly basis and they loved everything about their experience. Thank you so much for letting us come here while we were working in Kansas. Definitely deserve more than five stars, I know you treated my dogs like they were your own while in your care and cleaned them up nicely after our months in the field. Highly recommend.

Trucker Friendly... We were having a hard time finding a vet that would see us because we are truckers and can only make it in on certain days of the month. I was kind of having a melt down about it all because I thought my dog was in pain. Turns out she's just itchy. But it was a real worry for me. This place listened to me and understood my concerns and frustrations. They made a spot for me at the time that I would be rolling in. My dog is both blind and deaf from birth and they were amazing with her. Most people don't understand how to handle blind/deaf dogs. Even some vets don't understand. But these people knew exactly what they were doing with her. They were absolutely loving with her. We had such a great experience here and we feel so much more comfortable now that we feel like we found a vet that we can trust with our Daisy. And people that can handle our corky selves as well. Grateful this place is so close to home.

I swear, I am in no way affiliated with Animal Doctor except as a new doggie patient for my three small dogs. They are extremely happy because they are now healthier and I am ecstatic because the prices are extremely reasonable and I know we found an animal clinic that will also take care of their immediate health needs. Great staff and awesome doctors, thank you again! You have customers and patient(s) for life!

Stay away! I had been going here for years. They used to be really good. They're absolute trash now. The vet didn't even bother to show up for my dogs' appointments, one of which was having his first visit as a senior dog. The vet let two incompetent vet techs conduct my appointments. They hurt both of my dogs. One giving a vaccine and the other during a blood draw. It's been 3 months and my dog has a permanent limp for whatever they did to him trying to do a simple blood draw. They have done the one thing they swore to never do - brought harm to an animal. DO NOT GO TO THIS VET CLINIC, OR ANY OF THEIR OTHER CLINICS!
