How to Save Money at Wisser Lauren
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.

5 stars across the board. Dr. Lauren was recommended to me for a spay surgery. She responded quickly after I submitted my form on the website. She explained everything very clearly, shared her background with me and gave me an opportunity to ask questions of her. I traveled from Rochester, NY and it’s a short drive to her practice. Her prices are what initially brought me to her, veterinarians in the Rochester are are asking 3x to almost 4x times as much for the exact same services!! On procedure day, Dr. Lauren treated us with a smile, detailed information and another opportunity to ask questions-I knew my kitten was in good hands. I had the same great interaction at pick up. Clear take home instructions. The kitten was not overly groggy post procedure which made after care easier. Do yourself a favor and call Dr. Lauren Wisser when looking for veterinary care, you will be very happy that you did.

We called earlier this week to see if we could have our dog, an old boy on his last legs who had taken a turn for the worse, euthanized at home. We got everything set up, answered all of the questions, got a time set for today. (We ended up getting a confusing email about a different time for the appointment but didn’t question it and prepared ourselves since the times were close anyway). This morning, the day of the euthanasia, my mother got a call from the vet, who apparently fired the receptionist who spoke with us out of the blue, then told us she needed to charge extra for bloodwork, which is… understandable but why wasn’t that mentioned earlier? Then upon finding out that my mother isn’t vaccinated despite a negative COVID test this week told us we would have to have all of this done OUTSIDE regardless of PPE and precautions. In the freezing weather we would have to set our arthritic, dying dog in the cold for her to do bloodwork and tests and then euthanize him which would take time when the sole purpose of him being here is for him to be comfortable in his remaining time. My mother even offered for me, fully vaccinated, masked, to handle things and have this done in the doorway of our home while my mother stayed away so our poor boy could at least be a LITTLE comfortable and a little bit warmer. Nope. That wasn’t allowed either. I entirely understand anxieties about COVID-19, but given the endless miscommunication and refusal to work with any of us, especially with all else considered? Horrible conduct. Our boy deserves better than that. Glad we decided to cancel for his sake, even though I don’t agree with how my mother handled the cancellation, better to scramble to find someone else last minute who would treat our dog well than let our boy go through more.

I highly recommend Lauren. She was able to see us with only an hours notice, she was very cautious about COVID safety, and she was very calm, kind, professional, and understanding even with my hysteric family.
