How to Save Money at Raintree Veterinary Center
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.

I cannot say enough good things about Raintree veterinary. We have several challenging dogs and they have handled them with such care and such compassion. Yesterday we brought our beloved Franny in to crossover the bridge and the love and tenderness that was showing not only to us but to our beloved Franny is just beyond words. Thank you for making a tough time a little more bearable.

Raintree is the best experience I've ever had at a vet! Cannot believe how caring, compassionate, and FAIR they are. They went above & beyond to save me money for tests I asked them to do on my cats. Explained everything. My cats were new here, and the doctor actually read all about one of my cat's ER medical history that I was concerned about. A friend of mine recommended them, and Raintree saved her THOUSANDS of dollars on a surgery they planned, but they decided to run a test first, and found the kidney stones had broken up and the dog DIDN'T need surgery after all. They could've just DONE the surgery, but they verified first, and it wasn't necessary after all. Wonderful people. I'll be moving from the area soon, I wish I could take Raintree with me!

I’ve had a lot of Dogs in my life and have had met some great Veterinarians along the way. We feel fortunate to have found Raintree . The staff and Dr. Dan are very kind and you know how much they care for you and your 4 legged family members. Now if only we could find a Family Physician with the caring this staff has. If you have a pet that needs care or a health check do not hesitate to give Raintree a call.

I've been taking my dogs 3+ to see Dr. Dan Brown for a bit over a year now and the care we have received from him and Georgette has been exceptional! He is always willing to accommodate the needs of my dogs to create a safe learning space for everyone, never pushes my dogs over threshold and is always game for making care plans to help address our goals and needs. As a professional dog trainer he also takes time to help make sure I am educated about different steps in exams and vaccines. I have never had a vet so excited to work with me to make sure I share knowledge with my clients so everyone can benefit from the experience.

My golden retriever had to have leg surgery (which was successful) and now she runs like the wind! All post recovery visits were no charge and considered part of the original surgery treatment. Dr. Dan at Raintree watched her recover over several months to make sure she was healing correctly and fully healed, before setting her free. Plus, the day of her leg surgery they were able to spay her at the same time and gave me a multiple surgery discount and also a senior discount (me)! A positive experience for both my dog and me and I would definitely recommend Raintree Veterinary Center!! Now she is a happy healthy girl again! Well, she was always happy, part of being a golden I guess?
