How to Save Money at Southeast 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.

Dr. Justin cared for a our dog Bear years ago while at another practice and had a great experience. We were thrilled to see he has his own practice and have recently brought our two new pups for their routine care. Staff has been super friendly and amazing with our puppies. Highly recommend Southeast Animal Hospital!

I can't say enough how much I appreciate Southeast animal hospital, Dr. N and and all of his staff. We are caring for 2 cats that are in renal failure. And I just don't know that we can handle it without these people. I am so incredibly glad that we found you guys when we did. Thank you to Dr. N for having the patience, time and consideration for humans as well as their furry loved ones!

After relocating back to the Northeast following 20 yrs in Texas, I was struggling to find a new veterinarian for my 5 animals. Most places were booked up for weeks or just didn't feel right. When one of my cats started displaying signs of diabetes, I was very worried about finding a place to get her seen. Luckily I received a referral to Southeast Animal Hospital from a family member. I can honestly say that it was the best thing to happen for us. Not only was it the most friendly and welcoming office I have ever been to, but the ease of scheduling without a long wait definitely reduced my anxiety. Dr N and his staff has been very helpful, responsive and accommodating. They truly listen to your concerns and don't try to over recommend treatments but tailor their advice to your specific pet's needs. It has been the best experience I have had to date with vet care. They truly go the extra mile to ensure that you and your pets receive the attention and treatment they need.
