How to Save Money at Oak Hill Animal Hospital
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 Baby was on his third day of being sick. He was so sick that we have no clue how he even made it. We took him to Oak Hill animal hospital were they diagnosed him with Parvo and worms a very serious case of worms at that because he has been dewormed regularly. He had lost so much weight and in three days was so weak and was barely fighting for his life and not a lot of people thought he was gonna make it, at one point I honestly think he gave in I began to cry and beg God to give me some more time with my baby boy, that I think of as my own child. I just needed him to hang on for five more hours till I get him to the vet and at that exact time! He got up, walked to the kitchen and took a drink of water and Continued to drink. He came back in my room and laid down for the few hours we had to wait for them to open. Soon as they opened, I took him in. They said he they wanted to keep him for three or four days they were going to do the best they can for him when I tell you, I picked him up four days later and he had gone back to his normal ways, so happy wagging his tail. His s weight was back he even had more hair in the spots. He would scratch off from itching himself from his dry skin. When I tell you, it was like picking up a brand new dog that never was sick. I mean the words that are coming out of my mouth it was a true miracle, so I have to thank the good Lord above number one and then Oak Hill animal Hospital because without them, my baby boy would not be alive today. So if anyone wants some recommendations on where to go it would be my best advice for you to go to Oak Hill Animal Hospital. Not to mention that I can’t put a price on my baby but I know everyone don’t have it like that because I know I didn’t and by that I mean all them unnecessary extra charges that a lot of vets will do. The lady didn’t try to extort my love for my baby they weren’t no money hungry individuals who played on your heartstrings to get your money. They are definitely very affordable, depending on the severity of the case, of course.

One of my two cats is very antisocial. She always does so well with the vets here! They’re so patient and quick about giving her the vaccinations she needs! Highly recommend this place!! 😻

This animal hospital charged us $300 deposi t for seeing our cat. After the fact they kept our cat and said he would have a 30% chance of living but he died over night. Then the animal hospital called and said I am sorry but your cat died last night,and they said we owe you some money back. When my wife went to get our cats body they charged us $94 more dollars. This place is a uncaring money making scammer place!! And a lawyer is getting involved.
