How to Save Money at Animal Hospital of Roslyn
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.

The Animal Hospital of Roslyn has been such a blessing for me and my family. Dr. Vic and Dr. Jackie are so knowledgeable and compassionate. From the moment you enter you can be sure the professional and loving staff will keep your pets in good hands. A few weeks ago my baby Layla was sick and both Doctors made sure to run all tests necessary as quickly as possible to diagnose her, comfort her and give her the best care she could have received. Layla was so fast in recovering! Words cannot express my gratitude. The sincere care, recommendations and follow ups they give went above and beyond my expectations and I really appreciate it. Our pets are part of our family and they understand that, they treat them like family! Thank you for all you do and for making a wonderful difference in their lives. I highly recommend the Animal Hospital of Roslyn, Dr. Vic and Dr. Jackie for your pets!

I’ve been taking my cat Lucy to Dr. Vic for years. From the moment we walked in the door of the Animal Hospital of Roslyn, the staff at the front desk was so helpful and welcoming. Once we met with Dr. Vic, he made me and Lucy feel so comfortable, as he worked with us to give her the best care. Recently, we got to see Dr. Jackie, who stepped right in to help diagnose Lucy with some of the issues she was having. As a pet owner you want your vet to care about your pets as much as you do, and I’ve definitely found that here. Any pets I have in the future will only be taken care of by Dr. Vic and Dr. Jackie after my experience here.

My experience with Dr. Jackie at Animal Hospital of Roslyn made my anticipation of helping my best friend stress free. I was in search of a new vet as mine had moved and I found Dr. Jackie. She gave my dog a thorough exam, better than I ever had before and her patience and kindness were a complement to her expert knowledge of veterinary care. I would recommend Dr. Jackie as she is knowledgeable, kind, and listens to the needs of the family being treated.

Dr. Vic has been my cats' vets for years. He is always patient, kind, knowledgeable, thorough and professional. Recently, one of my cats became ill with an aggressive bone marrow cancer and had to be relieved of his suffering. Dr. Vic was wonderfully supportive and caring. I am so grateful to have him and Dr. Jackie to care for my cats.The vet techs and the office staff are also excellent. I highly recommend this practice.

I’ve been going to the Animal Hospital of Roslyn for years but recently visited when my senior dog was diagnosed with pancreatitis. Dr. Vic, Dr. Jackie and the staff 100% saved her life. I was stressed, sobbing actually, and had no idea what to do and the staff there made sure my dog was not only taken care of ASAP, but all my concerns were heard clearly. They eased my anxiety knowing my pup had a team of experts taking care of her. After following all of Dr. Vic and Dr. Jackie’s instructions tailored to my dog specifically, my girl has never looked better! Lovely animal hospital and staff
