How to Save Money at Woodley Gardens Veterinary Care

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.

To be honest, this was the best experience my family has had with a veterinarian practice. (Of course my pup had a great experience too which says a lot!). From the scheduling process, to the appointment itself and follow-up, everything has been great. We came from a different practice, Woodley Gardens made the transition so easy with obtaining all of my dogs prior records from multiple practices which made everything so much easier. My dog has inflammatory bowel disease and is under very specific care and a special diet because of this. Dr. Lowenthal has already been an amazing help with continuing care for my dog's disease and also helping us maintain communication with our dog's internist. I highly recommend this practice!

The veterinarian is the most important human being in my pets lives. I had to change veterinarian in the middle of COVID, which was not an easy task and they welcome me with my wild four-legged children. All the staff, front desk, vet techs are all amazing, professional, efficient, responsive to any request, and then Dr. Storm... He is the most amazing diagnostician I have ever met, and I met a few veterinarians along the way, a long way! He cares, he is patient, always takes the time to explain what's happening in one of my dogs or my last cat standing. He was the one to put my 14 year old lab to sleep last May. He is on top of everything. I said this for someone else, but I am going to say it for him as well. I do hope that every four-legged kid has a Dr. Storm in their lives.

This vet deserves all the hype! I am VERY picky about where I take my cat. I don't want to go anywhere that has any valid bad reviews. So, basically only five stars will do for my cat. I came here transferring out of a town and it was so seamless! I was able to set it up online, but did have to do a follow up phone call as I was a first time patient, which I understand. They were readily available by phone and easy and quick to set up an appointment. I drove from DC and had an appointment with Dr Nichols. She was wonderful! She gave me time to address my concerns, listening to me, and truly cared about my cat as more than just a number. I felt valued and heard here and will be coming here for a long time! DEFINITELY worth the drive from DC and it was affordable as well, but still great quality.

The doctors and staff are especially appreciative of the urgency felt by families in caring for our furry family members. Compassion and patience is definitely offered along with the staff’s expert clinical skills. A great big thank you to WoodleyGardrens Vet Care for instilling confidence as we continue to nurture our canine family !

Been going here somewhere on 8 years on and off with moving. Took fantastic care of my bulldog, was always pleasant and knowledgeable, and the dog would be happy walking in. When we moved and came back to the area, we returned to their care and was very happy to be able to go back. Everyone and every pet is different, but I would recommend with no reservations giving here a try for your veterinary needs!
