How to Save Money at Concord 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.

We have been going to Concord Animal Hospital for years. Recently we had to put our 15 year old very sick dog to sleep. Dr. Milady was with us every step of the way from treatments to counseling and finally putting our minds at ease knowing that it was the right thing to do. Dr. Milady Is a very busy man but he took the time to send us a very personalized note of condolences. We can’t tell you how much that meant to us. We know he wrote it personally since he has detailed memories only he knew. We highly recommend Dr. Milady and Concord Animal hospital.

I’m not a client of Concord Animal Hospital yet but looking for a new vet after being treated very poorly where I used to take my four legged babies. The person who answered the phone was very kind and had more sympathy in that two minutes phone call than where I had gone for 10 plus years. Those are the kinds of humans I want around and taking care of my babies. Thank you.

We've been going to this office for over 5 years now and we love it! The people seem to genuinely love animals and care about people and their pets here. Most of them have been friendly and helpful. Our dogs see Dr. Malady. He is very kind, compassionate, honest, informative, and thorough. I recently took my mom's dog for a more urgent issue and seen a different doctor. I really liked her too. I highly recommend Concord Animal Hospital!

My family used to bring our animals here when I was little and now I bring my own pets here, even though I no longer live right around the corner. You won’t find more caring, compassionate doctors. Dr. Malady is fantastic!
