How to Save on Veterinary Costs at South Park Veterinary Clinic

Preventive care

Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.

Compare prescription pricing

Some pet medications prescribed at veterinary clinics may also be available through local or online pharmacies. It can be helpful to compare pricing when appropriate to reduce ongoing medication costs.

Consider pet insurance

My grandmother and I took her chihuahua to South Park vet and the veterinarian was so wonderful taking care of Ruby. My rambunctious son was with us and she got him a coloring book while she was in the room with us. She let him look through her telescope and it made my heart so happy. She is such a sweet woman and knows so much about animals and their well-being!

My new shelter cat is terrified of carriers and kennels. Tried twice today to take her to vet for her free wellness exam, even purchased a different carrier. These folks were extremely understanding and even said give her another week to settle in. I AM IMPRESSED!

WARNING! Took my dog in for teeth cleaning and one tooth extraction and they pulled a total of 10 teeth without my approval. I take my 9 year old Pekapoo to get his teeth cleaned every six months. He was just at this vet at the end of August 2022. I took him in for an abscessed tooth a few weeks ago and was told his upper right molar was abscessed and needed to be pulled. I took him in March 23, 2023 to have his teeth cleaned and have the abscessed molar pulled. I called to see if he could be picked up and was told I couldn't pick him up until the following day. I was getting only little bits of information before they finally told me they pulled 10 of his teeth. These 9 additional teeth weren't mentioned in August 2022 or a few weeks prior when I took him for the abscess. This vet pulled 9 additional good teeth and I never got a phone call prior to this happening because I would've never given them permission to do this. I spoke with another vet & they confirmed that if these teeth were bad, they should've seen that they were bad back in August. Not to mentioned this is terrible business practice to do anything to someone else's pet without first getting their permission.

It is so REFRESHING to walk into a Veterinary Clinic & be greeted with happy, smiling faces!!! Diane is especially helpful and friendly! I was referred here by one of their clients who stated that they were kind, caring professionals. I found this to be 100% accurate! This facility is VERY clean & inviting. I am so grateful to be treated in a respectful manner. My sweet baby is very happy here, too!!!
