How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Palo Verde Pet 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.

A few days ago, I took my 6 year old puggle in for a nail trim. He is always hesitant with other people. The tech was so caring and gentle and patient. He even allowed her to pick him up- unusual for him. She did a terrific job with him. My wait time was only a few minutes. The person at the front desk was quick and friendly as always. We have been going there since they opened. I’ve never had a negative experience.

I've had two visits with this Palo Verde Pet Clinic. I find their prices are severely high like $2,200 the $3300 for a dog dental. I paid $425 total at a different vet with pre-screening. My second appointment was booked for anal glands and in the note I put I needed the nails and anals done. When I was there I told the girls that's what I needed done. I get home with the dog and I noticed his nails have not been cut! I don't believe I'm ever going back. The place definitely does not deserve business for the quality they give and the pricing structure they have! The place is a joke!

Out of all the clinics I have visited and experienced, Palo Verde is by far the best. The staff, techs, and veterinarian are so kind and amazing. Everything here runs so effectively and made the whole experience here amazing. My cat also had a great time here, and loved all the attention he got. I can't wait to come back here again with my cat. I recommend this place to everyone living in Yuma and those passing by. By far one of the best veterinary clinic in the area.

The clnic experience is professional, thorough and clean. A bit pricey but we are used to going to Mexico for our vet services. Now our dog is older so in need of a higher level of care. Our chief complaint is the pharmacy. It lost a prescription order. Then finally sent it, but not to our current address. We travel between two places and the pharmacy doesn't seem equipped to handle our specific needs. It didn't refund our expedited shipping costs on the meds they "lost in the warehouse." Thankfully the clinic gave us some meds until we can have the mis-delivered ones sent to us.

Very nice, helpful & direct with all three of my dogs' health care. The small animal care is exceptional. The small ones are 16 & 22 lbs with my largest pup at 125 lbs & still growing. They treat him like the baby he is & are always happy to see us.
