How to Save Money at V.E.T. Care 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.

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.

My dog developed arthritis at a young age due to a past trauma. Despite doing everything I can she has been more painful recently since we have a new dog in the house. I brought her in today to start laser therapy since my regular vet doesn’t offer this service. The staff was very kind and welcoming and the doctor gave me a lot of good information. Cricket appreciates you guys!

The staff here have shown that they genuinely care about my animal's health and well being. They're all very friendly and professional. They actually make it much more affordable than other vets I've visited in the area as well.

They fit me in when I called same day! Kind,efficient,knew how to handle what my pet needed done! Explained in detail so I completely understood what was going on! They were gentle with my 12 yr old Pomeranian and that makes it worth choosing V.E.T. Dr.Gibbs

I have nothing but good things to say about V.E.T Care hospital. Great experiences with regular visits for my best friend Torque. And a flawless neuter procedure done by Dr.Gibbs. I was and am very picky about who I trust with Torque and V.E.T checked all the boxes. Not only did the procedure go great but he recovered quickly and we even received follow up phone calls to make sure he was doing good. Dr.Gibbs was very informative and answered all my questions regarding the procedure and after care. 10 of 10 would recommend. We are glad to have a trustworthy vet that we know we can rely on moving forward, it’s a relief knowing he is in good hands with Dr.Gibbs and the staff at V.E.T.
