How to Save Money at Reagan Equine

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.

Dr. Reagan is skilled with routine horse care and common ailments. When it comes to something less common, good luck. I wonder how many other clients had leg injuries or dealt with proud flesh (also known as granulation tissue) to find themselves spending an abhorrent amount of money with zero results and maybe even had to put their horse down because of her lack of knowledge or care to consult with other vets. While under her care, I didn't know any better and she seemed so helpful and responsive to updates via text, etc. I trusted her. Thank goodness I had to relocate mid-care and therefore sought a new vet who actually educated me and saved my horse's life. My new vet educated me on just how WRONG Dr. Reagan was on literally every decision related to my horse's care. The last visit I had with her before the move she said (with 4 witnesses present) that "no, his wound is not infected" and treated his unsoundness as if it was related to his hoof without doing a proper evaluation because she left her test kit at the clinic, even though she was sent a video prior to her arrival. I reached out to Dr. Reagan in hopes to receive a refund on the services rendered, as she clearly did not know what she was doing, and instead she ignored me and decided customer service satisfaction wasn't important, I guess because I moved. I post this because I hope anyone else dealing with a more complex ailment or less common one does NOT take their horse to Dr. Reagan. I spent thousands of dollars under her care with ZERO results while my new vet healed my horse, received in a worse condition because of the infection she ignored, for less than $400 and in half the time. Had she been willing to actually have a conversation with me and discuss refund options with me, I would never post this as it would show she can recognize error and grow from mistakes (everyone makes them!) But she clearly was not interested in making things right. I wonder how many others she's made thousands of dollars off of purely due to lack of knowledge and client's not knowing any better like me. Don't use her for convenience in the Wilmington area, go elsewhere.

Great team of vets! Knowledgeable, caring, come when scheduled, great office staff, and really care about your horses. Have had great experiences with them, both with routine care and some really tough cases. Highly recommend!

Dr. Reagan is one of the most talented and caring veterinarians I have ever met. She comes every day with a love-filled passion and drive for people and horses that is truely remarkable. It is rare to find that in ANY industry. The stars on a google rating will never be able to accurately describe what Dr. Reagan and her team mean to so many owners and patients, but if they could I wish I could give them an entire solar system.

This is a wonderful place to take your horse for vet care. Ginger, the veterinarian, is a great vet. She is personable and professional. Her staff are all very knowledgeable and friendly. The facility is a beautiful place. I HIGHLY recommend this veterinary facility. If I could give it ten stars I would.
