How to Save Money at VCA Animal Hospitals Urgent Care - Cedar Park

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.

First time going to VCA Cedar Park and I was blown away. My Vets office was about to close when of course my dog needed some attention. They recommended VCA Cedar Park. I called and they were able to get us in withing 15 minutes! The process was super easy, the office was very clean and the staff was very friendly. As soon as we were walked into our room, Dr Davis came in 5 minutes later. She did great with my little man. I'll definitely be going back!!

I'm just going to be honest here. This is my first time dealing with a pet hospital, or anything related to pets since this is my first dog, but I am no stranger to businesses overall. The way VCA follows up and actually cares about their customers is unmatched and something all businesses should strive to accomplish. You can feel the care from every member as soon as you walk through the door, and the follow up is remarkable. You have gained a life long customer, and will recommend you to everyone that asks. Thank you all for making our Luna feel safe, cared for, and healthy!

Wow, we had such a great experience. Last minute on a Saturday needing to take my dog in for a potential abscess. Our regular VCA vet was about to close but recommended the VCA urgent care clinics. One good thing to know is there’s no additional charge for these clinic visits being “urgent care” facilities. We chose to go to the Cedar Park location, and the whole process could not have been more efficient. You reserve a spot on a “waiting list” online, Which shows you the different locations and waiting times for each. I got a text a few minutes later saying it was our turn soon so go ahead and make your way to the facility. Once we did, we were met by friendly staff and escorted to a room by Jodie who was super friendly and efficient throughout. Dr. Swanson came in to see us, she was great! Super friendly, knowledgeable. Straight, to the point for what we needed. Recommended the least invasive option for treatment. Got medication we needed and we were out the door, all in less than 30 to 45 minutes. This place is brand new and very very clean. I am truly amazed at how smooth and efficient this whole process was. What a great idea VCA! And thank you for not charging more just because it’s “urgent care” clinic! Thank you to the wonderful staff members here who helped us as well!

Vca was great. They assisted us in our dire need situation and explained all of our options to us. The doctor and assistant were very nice and supportive. My husband and I greatly appreciated their assistance with our fur baby.

My dog was limping, and I couldn't get in to see my regular vet, so I brought him to VCA. They were so sweet and treated my pup like he was their own. Unfortunately, they discovered that he had bone cancer. Of course, I fell apart, but they were so supportive and helped me through the initial shock. I'm so grateful for Dr. Scibilia, Marlene, and Britney. If your dog or cat need urgent care, this is the place to go!
