How to Save Money at Falcon Valley 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.

Falcon Valley takes such good care of our pups! It’s clear they are passionate about animals and they are both personal & professional. We love seeing them be excited to see our dogs because they remember them!

Brought my cat here for 11 years. They did well with yearly vaccinations and check ups. The vets show up quick to get you out without wasting too much time. They’re only getting bigger and better with their services, do recommend.

They are so amazing! I took my doggie to get groom and dewormed. The little fellow got a whole new makeover. Absolutely love their work. check out the before and after pictures. He's a very shy dog and a big cry baby but he felt so at ease with them. He also loved it, his attitude shows it. He went from sleepy all day to playful and ready for walks all day. I truly trust them with my fur babies. 10/10 recommend!!!

We've been taking our dogs there for several years and I'm overall pleased. Yesterday our dog collapsed and we took him in and he had emergency surgery to save his life. One of the techs spent time with him before surgery which I greatly appreciated given he was dying. After the surgery we got updates and photos of him texted to us which were again appreciated. They treat your pet like it's their own which is invaluable. Are they a bit more expense than some vets? sure Am I rich? no Do you get what you pay for? yes Is it worth it for quality care of a family member? Definitely

When we first started going to Falcon Valley, I had such a great experience with the vet that we saw. He was so friendly, very knowledgeable and super helpful. We have two dogs and live right down the street so I was thankful to have what I thought was such a great place so close. In the last two years, every trip (really since our initial visit) has become less pleasant. In all of our trips, I have NEVER seen the same vet twice-- the vet from our first visit has never reappeared. It feels like nothing is done in the best interest of your pets--it's all about what extra protocol or test can be done to add more to the cost of your bill, and there’s a lack of transparency with it all that really started to bother me. I had become skeptical and frustrated over the course of our last several visits at just how impersonal every trip seemed, but continued to come (the ladies at the front desk have always been kind, but no one else there knows or recognizes your dog). This summer I called for our yearly exam/vaccinations and just asked for a ballpark of the cost per pet, more out of curiosity because each time we come it seems to be more expensive. I have two healthy young dogs and was told it would be around $500 for each dog at their yearly visit. I started making calls to other vets, and sure enough my suspicions about the pricing and the additional procedures that are tacked on were correct. I found another vet nearby and the yearly visit (with very comprehensive vacs- including pro-heart12) for BOTH dogs was $400 vs. the almost $1000 I was going to pay at Falcon Valley. Money aside, this vet is small, personal attention is paid, and he actually knows your animal. I suggest you do your research before spending your money here. Don't worry- they'll never notice your gone- they sure haven't missed us!
