How to Save Money at Vet to You

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.

We are so grateful to have found Vet to You. Dr. Gilchrist and his assistant are pure gems and our dog absolutely loves them. Dr. Gilchrist is extremely knowledgeable, caring, thorough, and honest. You can tell he has a true passion for his work. He takes plenty of time to answer your questions and explain things, and we fully trust his recommendations. Plus, having your vet visit your home where your pet is comfortable and relaxed vs. taking them to a vet office or hospital is much more enjoyable and beneficial. Better yet, Vet to You’s prices are super fair and a tremendous value.

Vet To You has been amazing! Dr. G. called me after hours right before his vacation to give me tips on how to save my cat with CKD, severe constipation, dehydration, anorexia, heart murmur, and anemia. I tried dozens of foods, wet and dry and she wouldn't eat anything. Dr G. told me about the only food that she will eat the first time we talked. I have continued to try new foods, and she won't eat anything else. He was able to get to us several days later, and she loved him. She isn't typically a fan of most men, but felt so comfortable when he sat next to her on the couch and examined her. He checks in on her even when I don't have a current appointment scheduled. This is SO much better than the vet's office, has comparable prices, and is so worth the travel fee for the comfort of my elderly pet, who gets severe anxiety going to the vet's office.

Dr. Gilchrist and his staff are extremely courteous, responsive, and professional. My dog, a four year old rescue pit, had a growth on her side which continued to grow over a three week time span. Through a recommendation, I called Dr. Gilchrist and scheduled an appointment. Upon arrival, he and his associate, Alex, were kind and attentive to my concerns towards my pups situation. After a discussion, he gathered his opinion and recommended an ointment to which he believed would help. He was confident, but was also looking out for my pocket, considering a culture of the growth would have been more expensive. After a few weeks of consistent treatment, the growth has gone away, and her hair around the area has started to grow back. I recommend Dr. Gilchrist and his team to anyone with a beloved pet who wants and needs an honest/straightforward opinion. He is now our go to vet for our family pets!

Several months ago I had contacted Gilchrist in hopes that he would be able to arrange a visit for my extremely sick dog . He did not offer any time to meet or have him come to my home which was my hope. My dog had gone several days without eating and he suggested to me to get him a "McDonald's" hamburger. This to my understanding is totally wrong to give a dog that has suspected pancreatitis. I had already had X-rays done and he offered to look them over and get back to me, which he did not. I was ready and willing to pay for his services but he completely blew me off. Very sad and unprofessional . Do not recommend.
