Spine Surgery Due to Disc Pressing on Back Nerve

Our Beagle had spinal surgery on 5/2/2023 due to her discs pressing up against the nerve causing her tremendous pain. The vet recommended she be put down due to her extreme pain (8 years old) if after the MRI was completed (where the problem could be determined) if it couldn't be corrected. Fortunately, surgery was an option and affording it was possible due to my having pet insurance with Healthy Paws. They reimbursed my claim within one week of surgery through Direct Deposit. When given the choice of being able to save our dog through surgery vs. having to put her down due to cost, that would have been difficult to handle. She is coming along great and it makes me grateful to see her and spend time with her each day so she can live the rest of her normal life comfortably and happily. Thank you!

Excellent experience with Healthy Paws

We selected Healthy Paws because they are highly recommended and we haven’t been disappointed. The app makes submitting claims super easy and claim approval/payment is very prompt (days not months). They are extremely responsive and even checked to see how our dog was recovering from his surgery. Can’t say enough good about them.

Quick Reimbursement

We are very happy with how quickly we are reimbursed when we file a claim. We had different insurance before Healthy Paws and they would drag their feet for weeks requiring us to contact them several times before resolving.

Consistently there for us when we need it

We've been Healthy Paws customers for over five years. When we were first looking for pet insurance we found Healthy Paws to have the best/most consitent reviews. That information proved to be true as over the years we've submitted several claims: from dental cleanings, to emergency vet visits, to most recently an expensive to treat autoimmune condition our pup was diagnosed with. As our dog gets older, proper vet care becomes increasingly important, frequent, and therefore expensive. We have full confidence that we can take great care of our baby because we have Healthy Paws. Filling claims is always super easy and convinient through their mobile app. I have found that over the years it's best if you can submit doctor's notes along with the invoice to reduce any back and forth and claim's time to completion.
