How to Save Money at Hillcrest 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.

Getting 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 really missed seeing Dr Owen since we said goodbye to our kitty Fiona two years ago. When I arrived today with our new kitties she was so happy to see us. She’s a kind and sensible person who gives great advice. The kitties liked her too!

I'd been looking for a new vet to take Dukie to, because honestly, I didn't think my old one showed any emotion towards animals. I asked around for recommendations and Hillcrest overwhelmingly came up from from friends and people I know. 100% THE RIGHT CHOICE!! We loved it there. Everything - location, friendliness and professionalism of the staff, facilities and more. You could tell people worked there because they really care about animals and pets. I had a great vet in Alaska, and this place could possibly be even better. We were just in for regular annual stuff and to get updated on vaccines and everything was awesome from check in to check out. Franci (Dr Kenney) was absolutely fantastic as was the vet tech (sorry I can't remember her name). I'll recommend them to anyone who is looking for compassionate care for their furry friends. And as a bonus, even with shots, some preventive testing, and a year supply of Nexgard, I felt the bill came up to a good less than I expected. Thank you, Hillcrest Veterinary Clinic!!

I found an severely injured puppy and brought her here for a chip scan out of convenience because it’s so close to my house. They were so sweet and compassionate and I ended up bringing her here for treatment and everyone remembered her every single time we came back. She basically got a welcoming committee. Her surgery (leg amputation) went really well and she’s made a perfect recovery. I’ve had great experiences with the staff and veterinarians here.
