How to Save Money at Lambertville 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.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting 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.

Everyone there gave awful energy because my corgi is a corgi and they think she behaved terribly but they just don’t know how to cooperate with corgi temperament. Fortunately I was only there for a brief stint and went once before moving. They wanted me to buy a muzzle and come in with a muzzle next time!! My other vets have always been great with her! They also prefer to take the dog away from my sight. Wouldn’t trust that because clearly they don’t know how to cooperate with my dog. I would never go back. I’m sure some people appreciate them more than I do and they at least did some basics right.

Lambertville animal hospital is, like so many veterinarians, primarily focused on their profits over the well-being of our pets and with NO concern for the client whatsoever. They represent the elitist attitude of the you need us more than we need you model of doing business. In June of last year, I made the mistake of choosing this location for no other reason than... location. I spent hundreds of dollars for a bladder infection in my girl Luna, caused by a possible bladder stone just to get an antibiotic prescription and hundreds for a special diet that did nothing. Western medicine is well known for the 'treat the symptom not the cause' approach and refusing to consider any approach that might be holistic. Office visits pills tests surgeries that is your choice at Lambertville animal hospital, and we all know the insane cost IN THIS COUNTRY of going to a vet. This approach ensures the vet will reap the maximum $ amount possible as the first concern. When I asked for a refill for the antibiotic, I was told the office visit testing nonsense was the only choice if I wanted antibiotics for her minor bladder infection. At that point I had already decided to move on to a new vet as Lambertville Vet hospital was not working. I informed them I was giving Luna a supplement to break up any bladder stone. The response was arrogant and pointless telling me the supplement will never work (LOL)_ and that Luna needs surgery when she does not... in fact, the STONE BREAKER is working it is clear the stone is dissolving as she tries to pee less often and for less time. For $30 the result thus far is far beyond the results of the hundreds spent at Lambertville Animal Hospital. I decided to write this review today as I received another dose of Lambertville animal hospital arrogance today when they sent me CERTIFIED MAIL saying they would no longer help my dog! SHAME ON YOU for your arrogance and belief that we even need your pay through the nose approach to helping our beloved pets!

I have been taking my dogs here since Dr.'s Jess and Andrew took over the practice from the previous owners. They are great and have always shown a genuine concerns for our pets. We just had to put our beloved rescue Zoe to sleep. Having to euthanize your pet is an excruciating ordeal, but Dr. Andrew and the staff were very compassionate about it and assured us we were doing the right thing to end her suffering. They understand that your pets are family. I think it's also important to point out that no vet or doctor can perform miracles. The main thing is that they are compassionate and thorough in their diagnostics and care, and I can say confidently that they are both at Lambertville Animal Hospital.
