How to Save Money at Cheektowaga Veterinary 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.

We absolutely love, Dr. Sue and staff at Cheektowaga Veterinary Hospital. We have all four of our cats seen for their annual check ups along with blood work for our seniors. The front desk staff is always friendly and helpful and we’ve never had trouble getting in for an urgent appointment when needed. Highly recommend for veterinary care in Erie County.

Dr. Murnan is simply the best. She's thorough, wonderful with my pet, and has a great bedside manner. I don't know Dr. Sue quite as well, but I've never had anything but positive experiences with her, as well. I'm getting to know the office staff pretty well as we're there all the time for a chronic condition, everyone has been great. Love the girls at the front desk!

We recently adopted a new pet and were referred to this vet, called and left a message on 2 different days last week. Over the course of the week we were noticing our pet was having some issues but didn't think it prompted an emergency visit. We called again over the weekend and left another message stating we really wanted our pet to be seen ASAP and 4 days later and still no phone call. I will never do business with a place that cannot return a call in 10 days.

I've been to other vets in the area..... None compare to Dr Sue and her staff. Very knowledgeable, up to date, pleasant to talk to and a wealth of information. I've never heard them say "I don't know".I know my fur baby is in capable and caring hands.

I have been coming to Cheektowaga Veterinary for over 15 years. That should say it all but as always the staff and how they treat you and your pet goes above and beyond. I truly appreciate Dr.Sue and the whole team for the extraordinary care they have provided my pets over the years.
