How to Save Money at Town & Country Animal Clinic

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.

Very profession, welcoming, empathetic and easy to work with. Her dog had surgery there and we were absolutely 100% pleased with the encounter from start to finish. While she was there we had an emergency and staff worked with us to make sure that she was cared for and we were comfortable until we could get there to pick her up. She was up and running around within a few hours like nothing had ever happened. I was really Worried because she is very timid, but she was not traumatized in the least. They have to be exceptional to get those kind of results

I have been taking my pets there for many years and would not go to any other Vet. Just moved to Wyoming County and will still take my pets there. Very compassionate and caring which is important to me.

Dr. Leach is the absolute best! She's been there for our best and worst days. She's kind, compassionate and truly listens to your concerns no matter how minor. Thank you for taking such good care of our babies! We're blessed to have found her!

The staff at Town & Country were able to remove all but four of my nine year old cat’s teeth—WNY has very few clinics with qualified veterinarians—but there were several complications, including a persistent infection that she has been on medication for for over more than six months now. I was disappointed that when I originally called to let them know I thought something was wrong after surgery, they blew me off, telling me it was nothing. I should have pressed the matter, but believed they knew what they were talking about. I’m giving them four stars because my little tuxedo cat looks like she’ll come out the other side of this no worse for the ware. It would have been five stars, but because they wouldn’t let me come in with her when I thought she had a fever, my husband had to fly back from Oregon when the house-sitter noticed she had suddenly stopped eating even though we left almost a moth after her surgery. All in all, they did a good job, and now I know to push more when I think something’s wrong.

Great place it is a specialist so it is quite expensive...However, I am beyond impressed with the service, the caring, and the quality of veterinary medicine provided by the doctor and staff. He actually told us that it will be unnecessary to perform the procedure unless in the future there are problems. It is nice to know that the people you entrust your pets (my baby) too are not going to perform expensive procedures that are unecessary just to make money. If I could give him 10 stars I would.
