How to Save Money at Ridgeville Animal Hospital

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.

Getting 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've been taking all of my pets here for over three decades, from ferrets, skunks, and reptiles, to wolves and dogs. The staff is amazing, very friendly, compassionate, and knowledgeable, and they give amazing care to your animals. Prices are always reasonable, and they always give the best advice for whatever your pet requires. I've been to nearly every animal clinic in the area, and there are only a few I trust, but Ridgeville is certainly at the top of my list. Highly recommend.

We came here for a second opinion regarding dental treatment for two of our cats. The staff was all very nice and welcoming. We were put into a room and our cats were allowed to get out of the carriers and walk around. Our big boy wanted to comfort his shy sister. They were so good with the cats, and did the exams and treatments in front of us, which I appreciated. It seems a lot of places are taking the animals to another room for the exam and then bringing them back. It turns out that Fred wasn't as bad as the other vet had said, but Gilly needs more treatment. The vet, Dr Cross, sat with us with a book to show the anatomy and what was happening with the teeth, and as a visual learner, this was fantastic. They came back with an estimate and their prices are very reasonable. They are both scheduled for surgery, very quickly. I was impressed that we didn't have to wait so long and that they could both come in together. I highly recommend this practice.

My experiences here have always been positive. All of the employees are respectful, helpful, and friendly. The docs take time with the pets and explain everything so well. They've gone above and beyond with some of the requests we've had with our pets and I appreciate them so much! Highly recommend!!

These folks always take spectacular care of our furry family members. They are friendly and very welcoming. The new renovations are very nice. The prices seem reasonable for the quality of service, and I would trust them with all my animals currently.
