How to Save Money at Liberty Falls 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.

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.

I just found Liberty Falls and am glad I did! My cat had been a patient of Nebel Street hospital since she joined our family six years ago. This past fall I could not get an appointment to have her nails clipped because they said it took 2 technicians and they no longer offered that service unless it was with a regular sick visit or annual appointment. Liberty Falls will clip her nails once she is an established patient. I took her last week and found the doctors and staff to be caring, kind and knowledgeable. They - like most vets during Covid - have you wait in the car. There was not a long wait - and I thought the pricing was fair and the report from the doctor was detailed. I would recommend this practice.

Our experience with the Liberty Falls Veterinary Clinic has been superb so far. We brought our dog, Loki, for her first health check up with Dr. Geldon. About a half hour after handing Loki over we received a detailed report from Dr. Geldon over the phone together with recommendations for medication and tips on feeding, exercise, and so on. When Loki came out, she seemed just as happy as when she had gone in! Clearly, for her, it was a pleasant experience. A few days later, Dr. Geldon called to give us the results of the various lab tests and walked us through their implications. All in all, we were very pleased with the efficiency of the clinic and the extra diligence and empathy shown by Dr. Geldon. We highly recommend the Liberty Fall Veterinary Clinic to anyone seeking treatment for their pet in or near the Bethesda/Potomac area.

A wonderful place that is reasonably priced. We were consistently happy with the service and the way we were treated. Our Beagle mix almost died of pneumonia but thanks to the loving care she received at Liberty Falls, she survived!

Wonderful experience. Very attentive. During a recent series of back-to-back health issues, we discussed concerns, tests, results, most likely culprit(s), and follow up. Excessive tests weren’t pushed. All in all, our pup is back to her normal, hyperactive self!

I wish I could offer some sort of criticism, but I cannot. Thank you so much for everything- from the safety protocols in place during intake/return, to detailed explanations and problem solving on behalf of my dog, to solving the issue, as much as it can be solved with a progressive disease. I owe you all a debt of gratitude.
