How to Save Money at Banfield Dublin East

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.

Amazing staff, friendly and just warm people. They answer any questions and concerns, while treating you and your pet as if they were family. I transferred from the Fremont Banfield, the difference is night and day.

People like to dunk on Banfield all the time, but I've had nothing but good experiences so far. Pricing is fair, and while it's not inexpensive, it's standard for petcare. All the staff are very friendly and give you reminders the day prior to your appointment.

I was so thankful of this staff and facility that I shed a tear or 2 driving home with my dog who had just been spayed. As a new dog owner I didn't know how nervous I'd be taking her in but Lexi (who's normally working in the back) is so wonderful, volunteered to work up front to let a co-worker have the day off and I would've never know till she told me. Every individual on their team that I spoke and interacted with were amazing and there was no confusion about what I was paying for and they were very accommodating throughout the whole process. Loved this place. Highly recommend!! #give lexiaraise

Nice set of VA's and RVT at this location. They went above and beyond for me and my late companion Ms.Juicy. I appreciate 🙏 Dr. Peace and Carmen for providing a safe space for me and my family to process our decision for Juicy. They even allowed me and my wife to pay what we could at the time and gave me a week to get the money I needed to cremate Ms. Juicy (PRIVATELY). Thank you all for your kindness and support. I still luv Banfield even though I'm know longer working for the company, I can truly say they are one of the best Animal Hospitals. Xoxo
