How to Save Money at Veterinary Technician Services,LLC
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 cat was diagnosed with cancer in his jaw and needed fluids as part of his care. I searched the Internet and found David and what a blessing that has been. My cat is not easy, but David's calm and compassionate demeanor put me at ease and won over my stubborn kitty enough to allow for treatment. It is not easy knowing that your furry pet will not recover and the best you can hope for is to give them a few good days. With David's help we were fortunate enough to achieve many good days. David is punctual, flexible, caring, kind, compassionate and his love for animals is reflected in his work.

I had to leave my boys (Cooper, a special-needs English bulldog, and Guy, an Old English bulldog with lymphoma) for the first time since Guy had gone into remission after chemotherapy last May for a trip to Montreal. I was a nervous wreck, so I called our critical care vet and oncologist at AVC. They were quick to recommend Dave and I am forever grateful. My dogs are very much my children and they are HIGH MAINTENANCE! I trust Dave with their lives. He is so competent and so caring. He has worked with us above and beyond to accommodate our time needs and financial budget. And he doesn't think I'm crazy for having him send several photos of the boys every day when we are gone :). It is such a relief to know that I can travel and carry on a normal life and know that my babies are safe, clean, happy, healthy, and in the best hands should an emergency happen. I don't know what we would do otherwise as Guy cannot receive vaccination updates due to the chemo and Cooper is too fragile to be boarded. And they absolutely love Dave! I really cannot recommend VTS's services enough!

I can't get any help with my poor sick best friend, it's like covid sucked the humanity right out of everyone that could offer help to those who don't have the inflated cost of anything in the world anymore!
