How to Save Money at Snook Veterinary Clinic
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.

Absolutely the best care and service. Dr. Marsha is extremely accommodating which is important since I have 6 dogs. She’s currently caring for my senior Lab who has cancer. The treatment plan she recommended is not only working but has caused a 180 in his condition. She’s given me and my best friend more time together. Thank you!!

I have been using Dr. Stein with Snook Vet Clinic for over 10 years. I am very pleased with her care and concern with my fur kids over the years. She is always there to answer a question or discuss a concern. She has seen us through births, general care and maintenance and deaths. She has been wonderful every time. She is very straight forward with her diagnosis and recommendations and explains options clearly and helps you to make the best decisions on the situation. Being a vet is not just her job, you can tell it is her passion and that she loves all types of critters. I highly recommend her as a veterinarian.

Dr. Stein is absolutely amazing! She definitely goes above and beyond any expectation. On a Sunday afternoon, our Penni showed signs of a UTI (she has chronic UTIs). We were leaving very early the next morning for a week-long trip. Our son was taking Penni with him to care for her for the week. I texted Dr. Stein to see if I could possibly meet her at the office and get an antibiotic. She responded within minutes that she was at the deer lease, but she would call something in for Penni! (She also patiently waited on hold with the pharmacy for way too long!) Within an hour and a half, we had medications for Penni and she and my son were on their way. Dr. Stein's committment and care for our fur baby is extraordinary!
