How to Save Money at UrgentVet

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.

My sweet 6 month old Athena cut herself on a piece of metal. We took her to our vet, but it was late in the day so they sent us to Urgent Vet. Everybody at Urgent Vet was very caring and loving and saw Athena right away. We were very impressed with the price as well because an emergency hospital would’ve been a lot more. Very thankful they helped us with our baby girl.

Tonight my little puppy took a big fall 🥺🥺 when I tell you it was soooo fast and easy to check in and have her seen it was unreal! Pricing was great! People were great!! Even after we found out nothing was wrong, they were still trying to reassure this over worried baby dog mom!! If I should ever need them again I will return!!! The facility was so clean you couldn't smell or tell animals had been in there. I would definitely use their services again💕💕💕 I thank them and Chloe thanks them💜💜💜💜

Finally an urgent pet clinic that truly treats with urgency. My anxiety level was through the roof when we got there however, after the consult and treatment I was extremely hopeful about my boys prognosis. Thanks so much to the team for their hard work and level of empathy shown. My baby is still resting however he ate today which is a step in the right direction just like the Doctor hoped would happen.

A 10 they were amazing,comprehensive and understandable with everything. They were helpful and looked out for my dog frenchie 🙏🏻😃 yes not going to lie but it’s a bit pricey but the doctor tried to help us out with what was best to do for my fur baby and we were so appreciative for everything that they did for my frenchie to be okay. Especially a vet tech named Angel ,oh she was amazing and very sweet for all the help and support as well.
