How to Save Money at Paducah Veterinary Clinic

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.

Our pup needed immediate attention after being a run in with a vehicle. Dr. Everett took outstanding care of our dog. He was friendly and professional. The clinic was very clean and the staff were helpful and so kind.

We love Dr. Everett. He is genuine in his care for animals, and he is always real about expectations, options, fees, etc. Gotta appreciate an honest, empathetic vet with a sense of humor. He's the best!

Dr. Everett and the ladies are super nice. They get you in right away. Their price is very reasonable. They love pitbulls too! My first visit was with my blue nose and they got me in same day. Even though my brat peed on everything, they welcomed him with open arms. I called again about my cat and... again... same day. Right away gave me antibiotics for his abscess after a full and prompt look over. I half expected a hefty bill. Walked out gladly paying $78 and happy cat. I highly recommend this vet. It's hard to find a good one. I won't go anywhere else anymore.

We've used Dr. E and staff for 11 years now to care for three poodles we've owned, one that passed of natural old age and the two we currently have. Our pets are our children, and we have swveral thousand invested in them. I highly trust this clinic. -- Also I don't know how the one negative reviewer can make a leap from accident to sociopath, there are only caring people there, and competent by my standards. I wonder if you have the right place, because you said their number is listed incorrectly... it is not, nor has it been for the last 10+ years I've looked it up.

Dr. E has always been very kind and caring with all my animals since I started bringing them there in early 2015. My chihuahuas and my lab absolutely love Dr. E and the staff. They are just really good people!! I highly recommend them!
