How to Save Money at Creedmoor Road 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.

Creedmoor Road Animal Hospital has been a home away from home for my Bichpoo. She goes to day care there as well as being a patient,too. I feel very comfortable with Cleo being there. I enjoy the front desk girls, Sophia, Hannah and Sofie. My Cleo thinks they are her other family. They are very welcoming and willing to help with any issue. I trust them as well as the doctors and other staff. I highly recommend CRAH.

This place and Dr. Jimenez are OUTSTANDING. The entire staff is so friendly, compassionate, and you can tell they really love animals. Our dog had a dental cleaning and extraction today and we were blown away by the caliber of care she received as well as how communicative Dr Jimenez was. They took excellent care of our girl and we are transferring care for all of our babies (a whole hoard lol) to here. Fees for the services provided were more than reasonable and we are just so impressed. If you’re in North Raleigh (or anywhere really) looking for a vet- this is the spot!

Brought our golden retriever Birdie for the first time today and are very impressed. The front desk staff is cheerful, personable, and efficient. Check in was quick and we were seen in a timely manner. Dr. Peace conducted the entire exam while on the floor with Birdie, who was a bit nervous. We both appreciated it tremendously! He was kind, patient, and thorough- everything you could ask for in a vet. The entire staff made our experience easy and enjoyable. We are so glad to have Creedmoor Road Animal Hospital so close to our home!

I was very happy when I found CRAH. My dog had been struggling with an eye issue and the vet she was seeing just kept giving antibiotics despite no improvement after 3 wks. Dr Jimenez found the problem and treated effectively. Dr. Jimenez also found the splenic tumor that helped me to know what was happening to my sweet girl and have the information I needed to make the best decision for her. I am so thankful and would recommend CRAH if you’re looking for a veterinarian. Unfortunately, two girls in the front office were so cold and unfriendly when I picked up my dogs cremains…the girl literally sat the bag on the counter and went back to her computer without saying a word. It was just rude and cold and didn’t sit right with me. I never saw these two girls before, the entire staff has always been wonderful, but this one moment was enough to put me off of returning when I’m ready to welcome a new dog.

(2022) UPDATE to my review: My old pup passed in a respectful fashion courtesy of Dr Peace, who has since provided amazing care in conjunction with Dr Jimenez to my young dog and my sister’s dog. I cannot say enough about the care provided here to dogs with all kinds of conditions and walks of life. I would trust all the doctors here - Jimenez, Peace, Jordan, and Ragle - as well as the technical staff with the care of any of my pets, including and especially in critical situations. One of my pets had a unique poisoning and Dr Jimenez researched for hours to give him the best care possible and got him back to health in half the time of the cases she found. Everyone here is awesome, friendly, and does the most they can do with the pets that come in. On top of that, all of my pets have LOVED coming in to see everyone! The fear-free methods used here make vet visits fun & cheerful instead of scary, for both pets and owners. (2021) Brought my old pup to see Dr Jimenez and was amazed by the consideration she gave to his care as a geriatric dog. Other veterinarians insist on treatment that is too stressful for an older dog and she carefully considered pros and cons to each treatment option. The staff - front desk, technical, kennel - is incredible and kind.
