How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Cambrian Animal Hospital
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.

We started taking our two min-pins to Cambrian Animal Hospital a few years back. They've always given excellent care. This past year we had to make the difficult decision to put down our older (15 yrs.) dog down. He stopped eating and just got so thin. I made the appointment and took him in. The staff was so caring and nice during the appointment. I couldn't enter due to COVID but they came to the car, made sure I was able to say goodbye and spoke to me after the procedure. A few days later my family received a very thoughtful sympathy card from the staff. They also took care of the cremation and I was able to pick up the ashes about a month later. When I picked up the ashes once again the staff was sympathetic and kind. They offered sympathy and were just very caring. I appreciated all their kindness.

I brought my 8 week old mini long-haired dachshund in for a health assessment. I was very pleased with the Covid-19 compliant office procedures and fluid communication even though I couldn't go into the office with my pup. I was impressed with Dr. Saito. She was familiar with the breed as she has one at home. She spent a long time discussing different aspects of care and answered all my questions in depth. It was a great first visit and I look forward to developing a long term relationship with them. The prices were moderate for the area. They will quote vaccination fees and other services over the phone. Very user friendly. Two weeks later I find myself totally satisfied with our second visit (puppy shots). Doctor Saito spent considerable time talking with us about puppy behavior and offering advice. There was no rush to move on to end our conversation.

The folks here clearly all care a great deal for animals. Both veterinarians are patient, very pleasant, and kind -- & more than willing to explain things to you as well, which I appreciate. The hospital is small, but everything is clean and spotless. They have a boarding facility next door, in the same building, though I've never used it so I can't really say anything about it. About the only thing I consider a downside is that the hospital is not computerized - all the records are handwritten and hand-filed. However, I feel the excellent care makes up for that.

I have never been without a dog in my life and in 45 years I have never really cared for any of the Vets my parents used or that I used until I came across Dr. Kestler 8 years ago. I went to him after I adopted my boy due to the fact he was one of the Vets on the list that offered a free exam for newly adopted animals and his practice is around the corner from my house. Truly a great find! He is very patient, great with my fur babies, answers all my questions, and even teaches me preventative care for them. When any of my babies are under the weather he doesn't automatically jump into all the expensive tests, etc. like so many Vets do (I have some bad experiences with Vets that have done that). He takes his time and tries to eliminate the small things first before he starts recommending anything more expensive and/or intrusive. So far, he has always been able to pin down what the problem is without having to go into the more costly treatments. Although, I would drop all the money I could if it meant making my babies better when something was wrong. It's just nice to know he isn't going to do unnecessary things just to get my money. I trust him completely with all of them (2 dogs and 2 cats). I highly recommend Dr. Kestler. In fact I now have my mom and sister both taking their fur babies to him.

Dr. Kessler is a great vet and person. I've taken my pets there for many years and he's dealt with emergencies along the way too. He's not the kind to make money off of people's misfortunes, and I trust him completely. Highly recommended!
