How to Save Money at Dr. Mark Gigliotti DVM
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.

They killed my dog too. I paid for the extra testing to be sure that he could handle the anesthesia and still received a call that my puppy had "expired." I can't believe this so-called vet is still practicing. DO NOT take your animal here!

I had the worst experiance of my life I would never recomend anyone to this animal hospital!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I took my dog here for bladder stone surgery and a torn acl .they botched my dogs bladder surgery and did not do the acl surgery and nearly killed my dog.the following day we picked our dog up and Dr.Mark Gigliotti drug our dog out on a blanket and coacst him to stand and when he did his disper slipped off and blood was running down his leg and my husband asked if he was bleeding internally he said no thats normal for the procedure that was done and the bleeding should stop in a few days.later that day the dr. called me to check on my dogs progress i told him he was not doing well later that evening i called him to express my concern for the amount of blood my dog was loosing and that when he urinated it looked to me like he was peeing from two places and he said thats strange and i told him that he looked half dead.he told me to look at my dogs gums and i told him they where white he said i needed to take him to an emergency hospital right away so i took him to northveiw animal hospital they said that what Dr.Mark Gigliotti did to my dog was a little extreme they cleaned him up and sent us home we then went back to Amherst animal hospital and they said he needs a blood transfusion and they dont do those they reffered us to another hospital who told us that they did a really bad job on your dog and he needs mofe than a blood transfusion he needs exploritory surgery to find the bleeding and stop it.Its a mirical he even survivedI think that Dr.Mark Gigliotti is really a butcher pising as a vet and the other vet there she dresses like she is going to have lunch at tiffany's not work in a vet office heaven forbid if she got blood or pee or dog hair on her dress my dog was bleeding to death and she wanted to know where the diapers where that they gave me the other day.we asked her why or where was the bleeding coming from she said im not really sure i said well aint it your job to know anyhow if you reslly care about your pet do not go to amherst animal hospital!
