How to Save Money at Ludlow Jeanne C 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.

Absolutely unbelievable care and compassion from Dr. Jeanne. She took great care of our beloved cat Rita. When it was Rita's time to go to heaven, Dr. Jeanne made the process so peaceful and came so quickly despite being out all day on a Saturday. Our little angel is in a better place because of her loving support.

OMG what an awesome experience. I have a very scared shy cat who needed care. Dr Ludlow was so calm and obviously so experienced. I’m an ED nurse and I could tell that this vet knew her stuff. And the gentle way she cared for my cat - the time she took making sure my Callie was kept reassured and calm throughout. And thoroughly checked everything! I wish I could give her 20 stars! Thank you Dr Ludlow!

Dr. Ludlow has been seeing my cats for at least 10 years now. She is really great with them even though they are not always thrilled with her…. She’s proactive about their care and at the same time always looking at the expense of care. I recently had to have my cat put to sleep. I was very upset at losing her. Dr. Ludlow was so gentle and really made the whole experience better.

If possible, I would give 0 stars. I hate to write a negative review. But, it's very necessary at this point. Dr. Ludlow made the experience of putting our dog down very uneasy, horrific, and uncomfortable. We were unable to grieve properly because she was "out of sorts" from the moment she arrived. Needless to say, she did take on our dog as a "new client" during a global pandemic (which was her choice)... I do give credit for that one piece. But, not only did she take longer to put our dog down because she could not find a vein, she also lied about when she dropped our dog to be cremated. I called the crematory service myself and they did not receive our dog until the day after when we were told she was dropped off the same day. I had a really hard time understanding if our dog was actually "passed" because the experience was so OFF. Communicating with her was also really rough as she was extremely condescending in her tone... perhaps because she knew she lied about simple things (like mentioned above). Lastly, she was so unorganized and didn't even get the # of paw prints we wanted correctly... which was very disturbing and sad that one of us could not receive a paw print as a memory. I don't know if this is a one-off experience but I can tell you I would NEVER recommend her for an at-home vet, especially Euthanasia. Please do your research.

This woman seems SO NICE. She only does cats, but honestly, I called her to find a vet for a dog... and she actually called me back, couldn't help me but tried her best and suggested other places. Better bet if I ever had a cat.. she'd be the one I called! Thank you again, you've very sweet. If you're reading this and wonder if it is false- please contact me. it's 100% accurate. Thank you!
