How to Save Money at VCA Forney Animal 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.

called to make an appointment due to regular vet closing down and having their phone number down as a new clinic that will take care of us. receptionist was very rude and said they don’t have the records when i wasn’t even asking about that and had a very ugly tone when simply just wanting to make an appointment for my puppy’s check up. i suggest they get someone nicer to answer the phones

In June 2023 I adopted a beautiful 8 week old kitten from a local shelter. This kitten is an extremely loved and well cared for family member. Upon referral, I brought my beloved furbaby to the VCA Forney Animal hospital for routine care and enjoyed phenomenal experiences with Dr. Chambliss and Shelly at the front desk. So much so, that I enlisted the care of my adopted puppy to them in Dec 2023. Upon learning Dr. Chambliss resigned recently, I was disappointed but willing to continue services with the VCA Forney Animal Hospital. I am disheartened to regret this choice. I visited the hospital today for a routine vaccine appointment for my now 1+ year old cat with one of the new doctors who I had never met before. To note, my cat, who is up to date with all shots, is nervous around new people but never bites. Today while waiting for the doctor to come into the room, I made the mistake of letting my cat roam about instead of keeping her in the carrier. When the doctor entered, my cat hissed from the other side of the room. The doctor then immediately picked up a towel, grabbed my cat and held her down by the neck. This occurred extremely fast and without words. The doctor never introduced herself or attempted explaining what she was doing as she did it. As this felt intense, I asked if I could hold the cat and help. She then responded in a loud voice expressed with a rude attitude “I have years of experience with animals and I know when one is going to bite and even if your cat doesn’t have rabies, you are not going to like it if we provoke her to bite us and she is forcefully taken by the state and quarantined. And if you don’t like this, you can go somewhere else.” WOW. What an unnecessary intensity, lack of compassion, customer service and professionalism. To have never met a provider who I should have faith in, immediately threaten my cat and me, is something I’ve never experienced until today. I will not return to this hospital or trust in the care of wherever this doctor works.

Money, hungry money, hungry money hungry disappointment with my recent interaction with this office. I called more the ones to inquire about my dog's potential pregnancy Considering my initial call was seeking guidance on whatever I should do and was advised to bring her in for an appointment. However, I was surprised to be charged the full amount for a visit There was no exam all there was just She needs to come back in 45 days to be assessed That information could’ve been expressed to me over the phone and I would’ve made the appointment at a later date I feel this situation could have been handled differently 1. Lack of clear communication about charges 2. Lack of transparency on phone conversation before

But so are all the doctors and staff here. They always call and check on are dogs after any procedure and send postcards and email reminders when shots are due.
