How to Save Money at Bingle Vet Katy
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.

Love Dr Vaughn and all the staff. So thorough so caring and professional. They squeeze you in for unexpected emergencies I cannot say enough good things. I appreciate them and am so glad they are here in Katy. They take care of all of my dogs and whenever I need a quick visit for a mishap they are right there. They also have boarding too which is also wonderful. And also do the low cost clinic at pets supplies plus which I am thankful for with my group. Thank you Bingle!!

These people are angels on earth! Our cat was limping and later on we foundd his foot was bloody and he seemed to be in pain. I called SEVERAL other emergency vet clinics, all of them referred me to "blue pearl "clinic. I called the BP clinics and was told the wait was between 3 to 4 hours. Luckily, as a last resort I tried Bingle Vet Katy. Wow. Taneka answered the phone, listened to my situation and scheduled an appointment for our cat Malvin with the hour. I actually got there half an hour early, and they saw us almost immediately. Amy came to the car and did a preliminary exam. Shortly after we were called in. Although my cat was distressed in the car and carrier, as soon as he was examined in the waiting room he immediately calmed down. He was first prepped by Katy and then Dr. Ellender examined and gave us the diagnosis and plan forward. Malvin somehow was reassured by her and he got comfortable with her quickly. We were in an out in a little more than one hour. All the staff were kind, nurturing and knew their stuff!!! I highly recommend this vet office and their staff. We are new back to the states after 10 years abroad in The Netherlands where pet care is fantastic. Truthfully i was worried about getting the same care for our pets here, I needn't have worried as Bingle Vet exceeded all my expectations! I would highly recommend and will return for all our pet health needs. Thank you Taneka, Amy, Katy and Dr. Ellender!!!!!!

I just recently started taking my fur baby, love the low cost clinic offered occasionally at pet supplies plus! When there’s no clinics coming up, I come into the office. Always had a great experience, really show they care about your pets, some vet offices I visited lately, the staff can be so cold, but here it was warm welcoming and understanding. Dr. Lauren E. Ellender and the assistant I saw on my last visit with the other day were so amazing and caring with my Luna. Great experience and definitely great staff!

Service has been great but they marked up there prices way to high. For annual, vacancies, flea meds and allergies issues high side was $949 low side $549 and $85 for just the visit. After 6 years I had to walk away to more reasonable vet.
