How to Save Money at Animal Emergency Center of Tulsa

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.

We had to take my best buddy in this past Saturday night/early Sunday morning. I hadn’t ever been there, and we didn’t know where else to go. From the minute we walked through the door we were treated with so much compassion and kindness. We had to make the hardest decision to let my guy go be free of pain and suffering. I was a mess and they loved us right through it. I never felt rushed making the decision, and was given as much time as I needed with my Ringo as he passed and after. They were thoughtful with their words and I truly believe they treated him with respect and care all the way through, as well as us. Since he has been gone they have reached out by phone with encouragement and caring words. Today I came home to a card from them- inside was my sweet Ringo’s paw prints. I ugly cried. But I am forever grateful to all of them for being such amazing compassionate humans who have helped me so much during a very difficult time. I can not thank them enough, I can not say enough good things about them. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

My poor, sweet girl Poppy was so sick with stomach issues that no one could identify. She refused to eat for 6 days and was in very obvious pain. I had taken her to two other vets before we came here. While those vets had done blood tests on Poppy, they couldn’t find any wrong. Dr. Klupper took a special look at her file and noticed her pancreas levels were slightly elevated. She decided to specifically test Poppy for pancreatitis and it came up positive. I was shocked none of the other vets had done that! Poppy did need to go on a feeding tube but from there they were able to treat her. This dog is my entire heart and I was so scared for her but she’s made a full recovery, thank god!! I’m not sure if she would have if we didn’t bring her here. They also have a great set up where you can visit your hospitalized pet at anytime. Thank you so much, especially to Dr. Klupper, for saving my sweet pup!

The Doctors and staff here were amazing. We were on vacation in broken bow when our labradoodle got extremely sick. It was on a Saturday and no vet was available in the area. We drove 3 1/2 hours to tulsa on a recommendation. First stop was the animal urgent care to get stabilized then we were off to here. The staff met us at the front door and quickly took Noodle to work on her. We thought she was going to die due to how dehydrated she was but they had her turned around by 10am the next morning. We are forever grateful for their quick work. Thank you

One year ago today I took my cat in for a urinary blockage, and I seen a review exactly like experience I went through. My beautiful cat Ezekiel had a urinary blockage and so I took him in and when I got there they told me it was going to be $2000 have him there before the weekend comes up because at the time they weren’t open 24/7. I understand that ER visits are more expensive but in a time of need and my cats life on the line that is a very selfish price to make people pay. I love my cat with everything I have and so I paid for it. Things were going great for him and he was getting better. But right before the weekend came they called and told me his got worse and way worse than he was when he came in. His kidneys were spiking, went from normal levels to almost tripping in a couple hours, and the best option was to put him down. Before I made a decision I wanted to get a second opinion. And so I took him to another vet to get him checked out. And when I did they were looking at the notes and they seen that they clapped his catheter and left it clapped almost a day until I picked him up. He is doing perfect now and is a very happy guy now. I do NOT recommend this place if your animals has urinary traction problem.
