How to Save Money at Lawndale 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.

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.

This is the best vet. I recently had to put my cat down, and Lawndale Vet was so incredibly sensitive and understanding and supportive throughout the whole process. It was very emotional for me and they handled the situation with so much grace and professionalism. They offered to make paw prints of her paws, which I said absolutely to, and today I received them in the mail, with a sympathy card and a little note from every employee at the vet with the most kind, loving messages. It made me cry. I am truly touched. I am so happy to have found them to help my sweet baby thrive when she was still here, and help us through the goodbyes. Thank you, Lawndale Vet, so much.

It is always a positive experience when I bring my pup here. Most recently, she was actually excited when we pulled into the parking lot. She knew she was going to see her "friends" inside. Dr. J (and all the staff) has always provided excellent care for my dog, from surgery to regular checkups and routine stuff that comes up. Even though we moved an hour away, and have more convenient options, we still use Lawndale Veterinary because of the consistency of care.

My family have taken our pets to Lawndale for routine care, sick visits and boarding since we moved to Greensboro in the late ‘70s and we’ve never had a negative experience. All of the doctors stay up-to-date on the latest developments in their fields/specialties and they never hesitate to go above and beyond to get the best possible outcome for their patients. The techs are all kind and compassionate, and the front desk staff are always super friendly, helpful and understanding—and that means everything when you’re there with a pet in crisis. I can’t compare Lawndale Veterinary Hospital to any other vets in town because I’ve never felt the need to go anywhere else. Everyone at Lawndale has always been wonderful to my family and our pets. If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would. Plus, they have really cool art in their office.

Paws down, the best vet clinic in Greensboro. The doctors, receptionist, and vet techs are polite, happy, and competent. I have very picky pets who like no one, and Lawndale Vet has won them over. Their fees for services are also affordable and if in a pinch, they are willing to work with you. I have been working with them for almost 2 decades and will continue to do so as long as I have pets.

Absolutely the best veterinary I've ever been to. Everyone is super friendly, helpful,and loves all animals. They actually care about any animal you bring in,and don't care all about the money. I will go to this vet as long as I live because I will always have animals.
