How to Save Money at Plum Street Pet 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.

Dr. Bob cared for my college dog when I was living on a college budget. He was kind then and prices reasonable. That was 1992. Since then he has cared for all of our animals since (2 more dogs and a cat). His care has always been excellent. 2 of the 3 dogs lived well into their teens, with the clock still ticking on dog #3 (Sherman). I'm grateful people like him are in the world, it makes it feel like a little better place. All members of The Forbes Family and pets love and appreciate Dr. Bob.

After 2 botched surgeries on my cat at another vet. I took him to Plum St with Leigh and Doc. In 3 days time my cats wound site looked amazing. Infections were gone and He was comfortable and they gave me regular updates on how he was doing. These people are angels and I couldn't recommend them enough. 10/10 from the time we dropped him off to pickup.

My family is so grateful for this amazing team of passionate people who love what they do and who they serve. Dr. Bob and Leanne are both amazing, truly feel like family to our family. They have healed things that other veterinarians had not been able to figure out (by identifying a random ingredient usually not listed on the nutritional facts labels of the premium food we had been using and sure enough years of having extreme allergy like issues went away). They have also been there for us helping make some of the most difficult decisions we’ve had to make as a family and they always lead us through this unlike a patient and more like a part of our family. We owe them so much and will always be thankful and grateful for the extraordinary one of a kind care and compassion they have given my family and all of our animals. We drive across the city to see them and would drive much further if we had to. They are a family to our family, Long Live The Plum Street Pet.

Love them! Affordable and so good with my pets. I've taken both my cats and dogs, they never overly stress them and everyone stays very calm even for shots and mouth inspections. Would recommend to anyone.
