How to Save Money at Central 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.

Best Animal Hospital in Fayetteville. Their level of kindness with me and my fur babies has me so grateful for them. I could not imagine a better group of people. They have gone above and beyond for me at a time in my life where I had no choice but to leave my pets. The ladies in the kennel are the best. Thank you Lea!!! You will never know how grateful I am that you helped me. I love you all!!!!

This place is absolutely amazing. They took care of our cat. Made sure we understood her treatment plan. The prices are affordable and they care about your pet. Can not say enough good things.

I take my two dogs there, well did. About two weeks ago I had to take Hazel for a prob with her ear. Hazel is jumpy and excitable. The tech took an ear swab but evidently did not do it correctly so Hazel has to have it done again. The new vet, wanted to examine her and wanted the tech to hold her. When the tech took her off the table, she dropped my dog on her back. No one asked to examine her because she fell. Hazel had hurt her him at the doggy park and she was fine then and I did tell them about it. You would think they would have checked her before I left. I was kinda in shock. Hazel will never go in there again. The last doctor was amazing. This one not so much. The tech should not be allowed to pick up dogs.

They have been awesome with my corgi, Luther and my cattledog mix, Major. Prices are fair compared to previous vets we have been to. This vet doesn't do unnecessary tests and you can tell Dr. Chavis really cares.
