How to Save Money at Seacliff Animal 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.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting 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.

Seacliff Animal Hospital is the most womderful, caring, healing place. Dr. Meredith is so skilled, and so intuitive. She stabilized the diabetes of my special needs 14 yo Bichon Frise, and her kindness, and generosity -- and the concern of her staff -- made me know Seacliff Animal Hospital loved and valued my dog as much as I did. Kayleigh, Amanda, Elena, and the rest of Dr. Meredith's Staff weregenuinely caring. Dr. Meredith has a beautiful soul. Thank you for everything! Amy Lumet

I have been to so many different vets and I’m so thankful I landed on Dr. Jennifer Dietz. She is so knowledgeable and very caring towards the pets and owners! She takes the time to listens to you and gives excellent service. She is and has taken care of my many animals and we are so grateful. The staff is excellent as well.

The waiting room and exam room are clean and all staff are warm and welcoming. I have taken my dog and cat here and they treated both of them with great care and listened to my concerns. My dog has extreme anxiety when going to the vet and they took their time to help create a positive experience. If you are looking for someone who treats your fur baby with care, take them to Seacliff.

This review is way overdue. Dr. Ledesma has taken care of three of our animals over the past few years, we’ve followed her from her previous hospital. Most recently she’s cared for our cat, Tulip. Dr. Ledesma is always so caring, professional, and is always very clear regarding the plan of care that she’s sees best for our animals. I always know that our animals are getting the best care when she sees them. Though the trips to the vet are never any animals favorite (fair enough), they always get the treatment and support they need to be on the road to recovery. Thank you Dr. Ledesma for the wonderful care you provide, we all appreciate you and the work you do. -Tulip and her parents
