How to Save Money at Animal Hospital in Fairfield

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.

Ive been bringing chewy here since he was a puppy and every time it’s been a great experience. Recently he had this GI situation and I was so anxious and stressed about it but the girls here were so sweet gentle and supportive with him it took all my worries away. Also the Dr is great he listened to all my concerns and addressed every single one and made sure I left with no unanswered questions. Within a week my baby was 100% better after his medications. I recommend to all my friends and family to bring their fur babies here as well. thanks guys

We have been so grateful for Animal Hospital of Fairfield. We recently needed treatment for our new dog (had taken our previous dog there) who had a floppy ear infection and kennel cough. She is barely one year old. They got her in quickly, and diagnosed her quickly. She weighs 62 lbs and is one year old and very active.. They were excellent in being able to handle her without increasing her excitement. Dr Kumar took the time to show X-ray and lab test results, and thoroughly explained home treatments. We are 5 days into that 10 days of treatment and she is doing very well. The staff is so kind and knowledgeable and doesn’t mind repeating answers to questions! If they don’t know an answer, they get one quickly. They and the whole office is so calm and compassionate. That is so helpful for us as well as our animals.

Very great staff. They were very helpful with my pug. They would let me know step by step everything that they were going to do. My pug seemed calm and she seemed to enjoy the experience too.
