Applause, Applause for Healthy Paws!

I couldn't say enough good things about Healthy Paws. My sweet little two year old Boston Terrier was diagnosed with a detached retina in one eye, leaving him blind in that eye. The vet said that it was likely that his other would do the same. I brought him to an ophthalmologist who suggested that I make a quick decision to move forward with an expensive laser eye surgery to help the other retina to remain intact. I figured since James Dean was newly insured, Healthy Paws would never consider reimbursing me for this procedure. Regardless, I had to move forward to save James Dean's vision. I sent in the claim form because I figured I had nothing to lose (and a deductible to meet). To my surprise I received the check for reimbursement in the mail only a few short days later. James Dean is recovering quickly and I feel a sense of security for his future with the support of Healthy Paws. They don't let you forget how much they care either. They check in on him frequently. I know I did what's best for both James Dean and myself by choosing Healthy Paws. If you are considering pet insurance, do not hesitate to make Healthy Paws your provider of choice!

Unbelievably Fast Processing Time!

Our Standard Poodle, Roxy, had surgery on Monday at about 1 pm. I brought her home, along with the receipts for $785, at 5:30 pm that same day. At 6:00 pm I scanned in the receipts and emailed them to Healthy Paws. At 9:00 pm I got a reply email, with the processed claim, showing that we would get a check for $700.20!!! The check arrived in my mailbox that Friday. Wow - I think this is top notch service. I have been recommending Healthy Paws to everybody-they are the real deal.

Healthy Paws-Excellence Found

I took out a policy on a labrador retriever puppy in June of 2011. About six months later he was diagnosed with Entropian Lower Eyelids. I had to take him into the Opthamoligist 4 times for re-tacking procedures and finally the time came for surgery. Over a six months period I filed multiple claims and each one was paid withing 3 to five days. The folks at Healthy Paws are excellent and very knowledgable folks and try to look for ways not to pay, In fact they advised me on some other things I had not submitted to them and they paid them as well.

Fast, caring service

My basset hound Duke suddenly was acting like he didn't feel well and was in pain, pacing and restlessness. My first thought was bloat so I gave him a gas-x. He seemed to feel some better and lay down but later during the night he was acting in pain again. The next day I took him to the vet. His stomach was so tight the vet couldn't even feel his organs for an exam. He had an xray and bloodwork; the xray came back okay but the bloodwork showed pancreatitus. Duke was put on pain meds and sent home with orders for me to watch him. He was very quiet and I could tell he didn't feel well when he wasn't stealing anything (the boy is a thief). But a couple days later, Duke was feeling much better and back to stealing things and playing with his sister Gracie. I submitted a claim for reimbursement. This was the first; I've only had Duke since December. The vet gave me his records and the only trouble I had was sending the 36 pages but when I called Healthy Paws, I got great advice on how to do it and they even were going to hold on the line while I sent it to make sure it went through but my phone hung up on me. I did it on my own as instructed and received an email the next morning that it was received and it would take up to 10 days but by the time I got home from work and checked my email there was another email that my claim had been processed. I was given a detail of what was covered and the amount I would receive. Within 3 days I received my check. And then to my

Simply the BEST...!!!

To the wise shopper reading reviews: The bottom line: Choosing Healthy Paws insurance is the BEST financial decision I ever made. They are fast processing claims and answering questions, and their website makes everything so easy. I actually tried insurance through 2 other companies, but cancelled when I discovered Healthy Paws superior coverage and reviews. I'm so glad I found Healthy Paws, and I hope I've helped you do the same. It's a purchase you hope you never use, but should that time come, you'll be glad you chose Healthy Paws as your partner.
