How to Save Money at UrgentVet - Crestview
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.

Thank you Tessa and Devon. We came for our dog having UTI symptoms, we were seen very very quickly really no wait. We were shown to a room and following the initial information portion the doctor saw us within just a couple minutes.We were very pleased with how quickly everything was handled, we even got a urinalysis completed right there in less than ten minutes. Everyone was very professional and they even had bottled waters, a Keurig and snacks in the lobby. Thank you very much to the team at UrgentVet.

Ursula Sieklucki and the vet tech that help my dog and I today were so amazing!! They were so gentle and caring.I really appreciated how thoughtful and patient they were me and my many questions.They explained everything in detail and were super thorough. I noticed my dog acting funny late last night/early morning and I was able to make an appointment 30 mins before i walked in.I personally feel it was rather affordable for a walk-in vet visit.They also emailed very detailed instructions on how to administer his medicine and also very detailed information about what exactly he was diagnosed with and possible ‘whys’….I really can’t say enough good things about this place and their staff, highly recommend.

We took our Stormy girl to Urgent Vet after picking her up from a stay at a pet hotel. We noticed she couldn't open her eye and it was slightly swollen. The staff at the clinic were extremely friendly and took very good care of our baby. We were in and out rather quickly and they were upfront about the treatment costs and provided a written estimate beforehand. Stormy was such a good patient that she even got a Certificate of Bravery ☺️ She was diagnosed with a corneal ulcer and was given medication and is on the road to recovery!

From the moment I called to ask if they were open until he checked us out, Jonathan was kind, caring, helpful and very knowledgeable. Dr. Sieklucki took the best care of our cat Gómez after we realized he had a quarter-sized puncture wound on his chest, we're thinking a run in with a raccoon. Thanks to UrgentVet Gómez is home and healing well.

I took my cat Leo here last weekend and he was warmly welcomed by the staff and Dr. Sieklucki. The whole team took such good care of him and gave him lots of treats to keep him comfortable during his work up. The staff kindly followed up with me the next day to check on him. Leo is feeling so much better now! I highly recommend this place if you’re looking for exceptional care for your pet!!
