How to Save Money at Abby Pet Hospital

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.

Forever grateful for this pet hospital. 2 years ago our German Shepherd, Bailey, was diagnosed parvo & they saved her life. They were so kind & informative during her stay. The veterinarian & the techs on call would text us with updates even during the weekend. Fast forward 2 years later we got our corgi, Yogi, so we of course had to bring him to Abby pet hospital for all his puppy care & needs. We take both our dogs here for their annual, vaccinations, wellness check ups, etc! We have been seeing Dr. Benjamin for the past 2 years with Bailey. She is now Yogi’s doctor & we are so happy. We love Abby Pet Hospital!

They are great with my dog & cat. The ER visit to vaccination was a pleasant experience under the circumstances. Several vets on staff so plenty of opportunities to get a time that fits our schedule, which is a little nuts.

The team was very compassionate and Dr Slater was very patient with us as we were trying to come to grips of the news on our dog. She checked on us and made sure to answer any and all questions we had and even made suggestions on what we could do to make our dog comfortable. They priced checked medication for us, gave us alternate options. They went that extra mile so we could make the best decision for our furry family member. They treated our dog with the same love and respect we would have given him. They understood our pain and gave us all the time we needed to come grip with the news. Never once giving us the impression they didn’t care about our family member. So grateful for Dr Slater and her team.

I just love this vet! Thank you for caring for my girl! Got her X-rays done timely and although you guys were busy, Dr. Collins was thorough and helpful! I was able to get a diagnosis for my cat Olive and she was prescribed appropriate meds to get her feelin better and get her asthma under control! She is already doing and feeling SO much better! Thank you for all you do to help our furry friends!!

I had a very sick kitten who needed emergent care. I contacted Abbey pet Hospital, utilizing their emergency triage system on the Internet. The system worked very efficiently, allowing me to interact directly with the staff to ensure that my animal was seen quickly. The doctor and the staff took great care of my kitten, including emergency surgery. I was able to take her home in the evening with great discharge instructions understanding what I needed to do to care for her during the night and in her recovery. Thank you so much to everyone for the great care you gave my kitten. Thank you for everything you do, and for all the care that you give the people and their animals.
