How to Save Money at VCA Spring Creek 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.

We are visiting Yellowstone, and our dog got some kind of eye issue. We drove 2 hours back to Jackson Wy, and this was the only vet that would/could fit us in. The manager, nurse and Dr were all great to deal with. Very nice and helpful. Highly recommend.

My family and I were traveling through Yellowstone in the grand Tetons. As we came into Jackson, my oldest boy collapsed. And upon inspection, his tongue was blue, and he was not very coherent. Luckily, we were close to this VCA. We rushed him there and they took him in immediately. They put him in an oxygen tank in hopes that it was just elevation, sickness. After x-rays and further evaluation, it was determined that he had fluid around his heart. Unfortunately, I do not remember many of the staff that assisted us because of my emotional state. But the doctor was very informative and never once suggested putting him to sleep. He let us make the final decision and accommodated us in whatever we decided.. Unfortunately, in the end, I lost my boy that day. I cannot think the staff enough for trying their hardest to save him and accommodating us at such short notice. They were all very compassionate and understanding of our situation. They even coordinated his cremation in shipped him back to us while keeping constant communication. They followed up with a condolences card, which was very nice. Rest in peace, my best friend and son. I will see you again.

My husband and I are traveling in a motorhome with our 11 yr old shih tzu mix dog. He needed vet attention and Spring Creek worked him in the same day I called. Dr Freeman, the vet tech and all the front office staff were absolutely wonderful. Very caring and did everything to make us feel welcome and at ease. Dr. was working on a difficult cat case when we arrived but the vet tech kept us informed and came in and played with my dog while waiting.I also thought their prices quite reasonable. Highly recommend this animal hospital and all their staff.

I was super nervous about boarding my dog here because I basically never leave him behind, but Yellowstone isn’t dog friendly and everywhere else in Jackson had insanely high prices. I’m SO happy I chose this place! They sent me a bunch of pictures throughout his stay and I can tell he was super happy and comfortable while he was there :)
