How to Save Money at Zillah 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.

Dr Sam is far and away the best Vet I have ever had. She keeps our boys in tip top shape, and they genuinely love her. I would recommend Dr Sam vehemently to anyone that wants the same loving and professional medical care for their pets as they would for any family member. You won't regret it.

Dr. Sammi is honesty one of the best vets I’ve worked with, I’ve been a licensed breeder for over 15yrs an have worked closely with a number of vets over the years an out of all vets in Washington an some in Oregen she is the Best, she always takes her time an really explain anything I have questions about, does a very thorough job checking each an everyone of my puppies, I have always been able to be seen anytime I’ve needed it, not only that but by far the most reasonable prices compared to any vet around!! Dr. Sammi treats all my fur babies as if they are her own a they truly love her.

A month and a half ago I took my english bull dog in. She said he had pnuemonia and a miss shaped heart. Two weeks go by no improvement. He was declining very fast I had to take him to the animal hospital in tri cities. He did not have pneumonia or a mishaped heart. He had a severe ear infection in both ears. With all the medicine and help from our new vet in the end he could not walk or eat . Today I had to put my boy down. 6 weeks ago if she checked his ears, he could have had a better chance. His name is duke.

Wow, best vet EVER!!!! (can I give 6 stars?) My dog Cash was having an issue the day before I was supposed to leave for a week and she was able to squeeze him in last minute to look at him. That may not seem like a thing but based on how many people were in the waiting room, and cars in the parking lot, she obviously had a lot of appointments that day so her willingness to find 10 minutes is greatly appreciated! To make it more amazing, her obvious love and passion for helping animals was so so evident. Her calming nature towards Cash was amazing!! Even though she was swamped, Dr. Sam was super friendly and compassionate to Cash and myself. Most other vets (or people) would have let their hectic day show in being gruff or impatient, neither she nor her office manager Theresa allowed one ounce of anything other than "we got you." Upon talking to her during the examination I found out she is the only Vet in her practice. Seriously?!?! I don't know how she does it all while keeping the welcoming and helping demeanor!! I highly recommend Dr. Sam! I just wish there were more Vets like her!!!

I took our 8 year old Chihuahua to see Dr. Sam. He hasn’t been to the vet in a very long time. I was so nervous, but the Dr. and the assistant were so nice and patient. They listened to my concerns, and answered my questions. The lady at the front desk was friendly :) I can tell they love their job and love the animals. Thank you Zillah vet clinic! Our fur baby will be a patient there from now on
