How to Save on Veterinary Costs at St. Marys Animal 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.

I haven't taken my furbabies here yet. However, I stopped in one day to check this place out. We are new to the area, and I've had trouble finding the right veterinarian care for my furbabies. I won't take my babies to just anyone! The young lady at the front desk was so pleasant, cheerful, and helpful that I knew I was in the right place. I have appointments starting in the first part of August. My furbabies and I can't wait to meet the rest of the staff!

I’ve been going to St. Mary’s Animal Clinic for about 5 years. They always treat me and my dogs very well, you can tell they truly care about the animals. I feel like all of my concerns about my dogs are taken seriously and they always give plenty of options for treatments and will follow up to make sure it’s helping. My only complaint is that they can book up fast! So sometimes I have to use another vet when they can’t see him soon enough, but it makes sense that would happen since this vet office is so great. I would highly recommend St Mary’s to anyone! Thanks for taking such good care of my pets!

Staff is very helpful and the Vets are so good with the animals. They take the time to explain everything you need to know to have a happy healthy pet. I trust them completely with my Cooper and Riley

I am so upset that Dr. Benitez was let go from this practice!! I have been coming to St. Mary's Animal Clinic for quite a while and Dr. Benitez had always taken fabulous care of all my fur babies. He would get on the floor each and everytime I brought my dogs in. He always made sure my babies had what they needed, called in the evening to check in on them, texted to see how they were doing after surgery and even checked in with me after I had to have surgery due to a dog bite. I was there last week with a follow up to a neuter surgery and kennel cough. My dog started to have issues over the weekend and I called this morning to see if I could get him in today. I was told that Dr. B was no longer there and that the office manager was upset that I was allowed to carry a balance of less than $100.00. I've always paid my bills to them but Dr. B was so gracious to make sure that my animals weren't in pain and were taken care of. I've spent several thousand dollars over the past few months there and now the new office manager wants to make a stink about $96.00. If this is the way they are going to do business now then I definitely won't be back and will be looking for someplace new to take care of my fur babies. I've also requested all of my records for my 5 cats and 4 dogs. I will definitely miss the incredible office staff, minus the management. My fur babieswill also miss coming there because they felt so much at home. It's really a sad time for everyone who loved Dr. Benitez and the staff.

Super friendly staff in a clean environment . It was quiet and the time I had my appointment, there was no one else in the waiting room so it made my puppy’s first visit a calm and quick visit for his shots.
