How to Save Money at Rolling Hills Veterinary 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.

I don't normally leave bad reviews but our experience with this clinic has been horrible to say the least. In 3 years I hadn't met the Vet until the day we had to put our sweet girl Kita down. They made this experience twice as bad as it already was. We made an appointment knowing that it was surgery day and they would see us before regular appointments at 2. We showed up for the appointment and the Vet was still in surgery which we could understand. We waited about an hour. They could have called us to let us know she was running behind. I asked why they didn't call us i was told we don't do that. When it was actually time when we entered the clinic the staff asked us 3 times when would we want to pay. I thought this was extremely inconsiderate. Our hearts were already broken with having to do this.

Just know you cannot go in with your pet to their appointment. You still have to stay in your car. I don't have a problem with it, but some may abd need to be premature for that.

Rolling Hills Veterinary Clinic, Smock PA mutilated our cat when ear tipping as a permanent marker indicating was spayed. They cut half her ear off. When trying to discuss situation they rudely and argumentatively stated "well that's what you signed for". No I signed for a snip, not half the ear to be cut off. What they did was inhumane, they scarred my pet for life. I pray her internal organs were treated more skillfully and professionally during her surgery.

We were looking for a veterinarian to get shots for our two litters of Jack Russell Terrier’s. One mom had 6, the other mom had 3 so, we had 9 puppies that needed shots. We called all around the area, some wanted $200.00 to $400.00 plus office visit!! My husband called Rolling Hills Veterinarian and they said it would be $192.00 with the office visit and I told him make the appointment now!! We will be getting all of our fur babies shots there from now on!! Yes, we did find home’s for 6 of the puppies and we kept 3 of them. Great Veterinarian, Great People who work there ☺️

Tanya is a wonderful vet who ACTUALLY cares about the animals and not about lining her pockets. She is very good with the pets and treats them with love and respect. This is rare in this field. Her prices are very reasonable. I run an animal rescue so I have dealt with dozens of vets in my day, she by far is the best. My only real complaint is her staff. They change frequently. I believe they are mostly interns which is awesome that Tanya gives them this opportunity. However, 98% of them are extremely rude and on a power Trip. They tend to have this attitude that they are better than you and your very presence is bothering them. It is very tempting to want to smack the attitude right out of them, especially when you are there with a sick pet and they are talking about your furry child like it's a stack of unwanted encyclopedias. Extremely not Kool. But Tanya makes up for it. I recommend her to everyone.
