How to Save Money at Sag Harbor Veterinary 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.

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.

I never give a review, but felt compelled to do so here. I love Dr. Browning, but I would feel horrible to go back to his offices after I was scolded by his administrative staff for having to cancel an appointment and then hung up on. I called yesterday morning needing to move my afternoon appointment. Before I could ask to reschedule, the person who answered the phone told me that there would be a $50 late cancellation charge. I asked if I could reschedule the appointment, and if so, would I still be charged? I could have even made it to their office later in the day, but this person cut me off mid-sentence to tell me it is their policy and they would charge $50. I acknowledged this fee and again asked if I can reschedule. This person let me know that they could not fill my appointment slot and they would lose money, and she was complaining that she is the only person in the office that day, didn't have the time to fill it, and would (again) charge me $50. Finally, after asking a thrid time, she told me there was an opening the next day, I booked the time and said I was sorry that she was having a bad day. That must have come off in the wrong way. This person then berated me telling me that its policy, that she was not having a bad day, and then hung up on me. I am only trying to get my dog to see Dr. Browning- she has an infection. So I don't have any confirmation this appointment was booked and literally was charged $50 as soon as I hung up. Arranging and changes to the schedule is nothing new. I should not feel ashamed and then hung up on as a customer. I love Dr. Browning but it should not resort to this. I feel so bad and won't be there for my (confirmed?) appointment. Sorry.

Dr Browning and his staff are the best, truly blessed I have them in my team for 15 + years. Dani is the best as well 🙃

Great and friendly place. I brought in 3 hard cases, two cases were for dogs, and the other was a cat. They would not give up on a very difficult skin condition on one dog and figured it out where others gave up. So now I only go here.
