How to Save Money at Allen Veterinary Clinic
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.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting 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.

Dr. Allen and staff are wonderful, he has been our vet for 30 years, it saddens me to see him retire. Wish this beautiful couple a Blessed retirement and a Hugh Thanks for all our fur babies he cared for. God Bless

Reliable veterinary service but I don't believe they are taking new clients. They've been around for at least 20 years and have had lifelong relationships with customers. Dr. Allen is a nice fellow and seems to know what he's doing; we'll keep taking our animals there as long as they're serving the community.

I've known Dr. Allen and his wife for almost 20 years, and he's been my vet for that entire time. He's the best vet around and my furbabies are always at ease with him. Very compassionate and makes a donation and sends a sympathy card when one has to go wait at the Rainbow Bridge.

Dr. Allen recently spayed our 4 month old yellow lab, Sarah, that we got for our two boys. A few days later, she had a reaction to the sutures. Dr. Allen met us at his office and worked until midnight on her, even taking her back into surgery. We found out while in the waiting room that he was taking off for two weeks. Not only did he schedule to meet us at his office every few days of his vacation, he also made sure that we have every possible contact number in case we need him. He is a great Dr. and a great person. We love Dr. Allen.
