How to Save Money at Advanced Pet Care of Clear Lake
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.

My beautiful boy Rudy took his last breath this week after battling terminal cancer. It was difficult, but euthanasia was the only humane option I could decide on to end his suffering. Advanced got us in at the last minute. Even though I was half an hour late arriving, the staff appeared to do a very thorough job reading his cancer diagnosis from another vet and examining him. They did not charge me for the exam or for arriving late. I only have a few questions/concerns. After the exam, they took him to the back for a few minutes to sedate him, before bringing him out and escorting us to the euthanasia room. I would have prefered for him to remain by me the entire time. Regarding his ashes: The options were that I could pay extra to receive them, or they get labeled and stored indefinitely. I would like to have them back in a few weeks when I get my next paycheck. Thank you for being there for Rudy and for Joey a few months earlier, (and us) when the time had come to stop their suffering. We miss them terribly, and I'm crying now writing this review. May both these beautiful boys be united in Heaven, full of peace, joy, and surrounded by love for eternity. God Bless you boys. You Are Loved 😇🙏✝️ Mama

Dr. Rush saved our girl's life. She had a collapsed lung that presented like kennel cough, but Dr. Rush realized something was off. Thankfully, an xray was taken, and we received a quick diagnosis and were off to the specialist. I cannot thank her enough.

Love Dr. Rush and her staff. She is incredibly knowledgeable and always has your pets’ best interest in mind. She saved my soul dog a couple of times and I will be forever grateful to her.

Dr Rush and her staff are absolutely amazing, caring and personable. We have a brood of 3 large dogs and everytime we come in our dogs are seen with attention and respect despite the madess that we bring. Last year we had to put down our 16 year old terrier and Dr Rush and her staff were so empathetic and kind during the entire painful process. I highly recommend Advanced Pet Care and we will be customers for as long as we have pets!

They are very nice and caring towards my cats and give you options for payment. They even helped me carry my giant cat(lol) to the car as I have two cats and came by myself. They go above and beyond. I really like them.
