How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Lakewood Pet Vet
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.

What a refreshing, wonderful experience we had here after trying a few other vets the last couple of years in the area. Everyone was friendly and professional and the prices were very fair. My dog was treated quickly and recovered nicely from her injury. Very happy with Lakewood Pet Vet! I will be bringing all of my pets here from now on.

The staff is so friendly, loving, very caring and patient!! I felt so bad when my dog decided to "mark his territory" on one of the plants,and they were quick to get it cleaned up for me! (Thanks alot, Ozzy... Grrr haha!) I highly recommend anyone to this office. Thank you sooo much for your excellent work and customer service!! ❤️ You guys are awesome. P. S. Message me for a individual/family/group life insurance policy, or if you'd be interested in an extra income. 😁 We need people like you all, and also looking forward to helping you, your family, and possibly your company/co-workers with coverage. 🤗

I had the pleasure of working with the Lakewood Pet Vet team during the last few years of my senior pup’s life. After a previous clinic immediately suggested to euthanize my boy, I decided to try Lakewood Pet Vet due to the positive reviews regarding their senior pet care. Due to the nature of caring for an older pet, along with the need for more frequent visits, my pup was cared for by multiple doctors on staff including Dr. Julissa and Dr. Lisa. All of the staff were so kind and attentive during his visits. They gave in depth detail over his medical conditions and provided me multiple options to help care for him and keep him comfortable in his old age. When the time finally came to say goodbye, the whole staff was so patient and empathetic during this difficult time. I could not imagine going through this process with any other clinic. Thank you so much to the Lakewood Pet Vet team for your wonderful care.
