How to Save Money at Ambassador 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.

Augie has been a client there for over ten years and we couldn't imagine going anywhere else! They are kind, compassionate, thorough, and knowledgeable. Also considerate of cost and provide estimates for services during the visits.

I understand COVID-19 and the need for clinics to have curbside pickup. Dr. King who used to work at Ambassador, also had an understanding for elderly and certain case by case and the need for owners to be with their Animals. Dr. King is gone now, they are not telling me the how or why, or where she went. Yes, we survived the stress of my 16 yr old blind, and ill kitty that is terrified of the Vet. Stress is real, the times are full of stress, just give me more information and not misinformation and I might handle it better. I

Revenue driven practice. Not what it used to be. It's gone downhill since new ownership. I don't find them to be proactive. Follow up is practically non existent. Prices are higher than expected. Abrasive at times in communicating with customers.

I’ve been going to Ambassadors for a little over 5 years. They have always taken good care of our pups. When one of my dogs had passed, they sent me a card, signed by all of the employees there, saying their condolences. I now take my dog Ruby there. She has been in training for dog and human aggression because she’s a rescue. They have always been helpful, understanding, loving and patient. They always greet her and ask her how her training has been. But Anna, a vet tech, has always been super loving with Ruby. She is the first person to kiss, go up to and let someone pet her! She used to have to be sedated and muzzled but now, with Anna’s help, she doesn’t need any of that. Anna sits on the floor with her, no matter how long it takes to make Ruby feel comfortable. Just an outpour of love and understanding. I will forever go here and recommend anyone here.💛
