How to Save Money at Uptown Veterinary 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.

Dr. Miller is... simply the best veterinarian I've ever met. I'm such an animal lover...I foster and help get animals away from bad situations and shelters and into loving homes. I TRUST DR. MILLER WITH MY 100% with these fury loves of my life. Never have i ever, felt that way. She took such good care of my cat after it was attacked by a dog i was rescuing, I wanted to leave her with Dr. Miller to ensure the best possible care for her. Dr. Miller and i communicated every day for 2 maybe even three weeks. She insisted on daily reports and I was relieved for the help and reassurance. HER HEART IS IN SAVING LIVES of our oh so precious animals. Everything about her and her office and the people she works with says, we actually care about everything concerning your animal. i am recommending her, and the people she works with, to all animal lovers!

Words can't say how well Dr. Miller and her staff treated my beloved Dante from the time he was a puppy until the day I had to say goodbye. I'm not ready to get another dog yet but you can be sure that when that day comes, I will choose her practice again.

Dr. Miller has been fantastic for me and my pets. Her and her staff provide a friendly, clean and informative environment. They have always taken the time to walk me through my options and to explain everything they are doing. After a few bad experiences with other vets, I am thrilled to have found Dr. Miller. She has done the best for me and all of my pets and she has always gone above and beyond to be caring and to listen to my worries.
