How to Save Money at Dr. Moody Foy Harley 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.

Had to put my 13yo kitty (Chrissy) down. Drs & all the girls very compassionate. But yes the wait is long. Prices reasonable. Thank you to everyone for your comfort.

I found a kitten at 5-weeks at the ranch; she had a sinus infection. They gave her meds and cleared everything up. The help, kindness, and attention given was above and beyond.

There was a little bit of a wait, but mostly my fault, as another commenter mentioned that this office is "known for its high volume service to the local community, and that it's best to get there early." I didn't heed the warning to my detriment, next time I'll be early. Other than that, I had a great experience. My tech was friendly and knowledgeable. And what she didn't know, she was honest about, but quickly got an answer from veteran staff. That's enough to win me as a customer for life, even if the wait IS kinda long, ya never know who you might strike up a conversation with. Being a new Corpus resident, I've learned to appreciate the wait. Novel idea, huh? That waiting thing...

I have been coming here since 2006 on my resent adopted fur babies. Great service, and prices. The wait time during this COVID time has increased, yet the good service and care towards my fur baby is not compromised.

Can't thank this Vet office enough for the care and attention my furbabies receive all the time. All of the doctors I have seen there are attentive, take the time to listen and ask questions to get a better picture of what's going on with the patient. Always provide an estimate before proceeding and they have very reasonable rates. Walk in bases is convenient but also has its complications. Get there at 8 AM to get a spot.
