How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Fosters 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

Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

I adopted a precious kitten from them. Everyone was so happy for "Busy", my kitty, to be getting a forever home. It was a bitter sweet moment for the staff. They were all so attached that there were a few tears, but happy all the same. The staff did a wonderful job of socializing this precious baby. I appreciate them all very much. Dr. Canant and his staff are great and very loving towards all their client's pets. You can't go wrong by using them for your veterinary needs.

A really great first visit. They were very busy but always calm and polite. Terry at the front desk is amazing. She takes so much time with each pet mommy or daddy. The staff was very gentle with my boys; remarkably stress free considering they were two rambunctious young kitties. Dr. Canant explained every procedure to me and was absolutely charming. I've not had pets for a couple of years, and I feel very comfortable devoting the care of my new babies to Fosters Veterinary Clinic.

My wife and I always take our two dogs there for their annual checkups and shots. They are always great with the dogs and everyone there are very friendly and smiling. So I highly recommend then for all your pets needs.

We were sad a while ago to show up to our Vet appointment and find Dr. (Bullard) Carden was no longer there. She is an excellent vet and helped three of our cats through multiple issues: FIV, FELV, pododermatitis, gingivitis, and numerous abscesses. We were glad to catch up with her to see how she is and where she went (my husband just ran into her at the Home Depot parking lot in Hoover). Her new customers are very lucky to have her.
