How to Save Money at Quality Pet Care
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.

Dr. Quick and his staff are always very caring and professional. They take their time with the animals and listen to the owners. I’ve never had a bad experience with them.

Took a stray cat in to see if it was chipped and to get it tested- the vet couldn’t have been more uninterested. They did all the necessary tests and shots but never mentioned anything about the cat’s obvious physical conditions (having eye problems and urinary problems). They may be fine for checkups and boosters but if you’re a first time animal parent or have an emergency I would go elsewhere

Dr. Quick and all his staff are wonderful, caring, professional, polite with great hearts in what they do for my furbabies. Will always recommend his vet services to anyone who asks me.

Just used Dr. Quick for the first time for a second opinion. He is thorough, explains things as he does them, answered all of my questions and gave my cat a much better chance. I cannot say enough good things about this experience. Totally satisfied, wish I could give him 6 stars!!

If i could give them zero i would. someone else said in the reviews if you care about your pet take them somewhere else and i completely agree with that. im not sure if i left a review before but i wanted to make sure this is out there. i brought my dog there in spring 2022 because she was limping a little. brought her here and after spending almost $1000 she left with a limp much worse because the way the dr handled her was way to aggressive after a week we had to bring her to a different vet because lack of trust here. she is also completely terrified of the vet now where before she was just a bit timid. she shakes, pants, paces, hides under chairs and tries to break out windows all while drooling everywhere now. quality pet care caused so much trauma mentally and physically to my sweet old pit. not to mention she went there for at the time the entirety of her probably ab 7 years years life with him as her vet. the establishment truly went down after the vet tech Rachel left which i believe was the only person who truly cared for animals there. he didn't even remember her the last time we went in and knew none of her medical history even though they had it in their files. they also wouldn't transfer my dogs vaccinations or any records they have for her to her new vet. im not even going to get into the dog i had going here in 2021 who ultimately had to be put down. i also emailed them about the issue initially probably a week after it happened and never got a reply.
