How to Save on Veterinary Costs at OcuVet

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.

I can’t say enough good things about this practice!!! They did an amazing job in fixing Augie’s cherry eye, and beyond that the staff was some of the best I’ve ever worked with. Dr Lanuza, Angie and Desiree were kind, thoughtful and patient with all my questions. They continued to check up on me and I trusted them so much! Augie loved them all and ran through the door each visit for hugs. Wish I could make them my general care vets. Thank you so much to the whole team!!

What a great staff! I Was very impressed with how the doctor treated my dog during his exam… Very kind and gentle the whole way through as well as being extremely informative and explaining everything he was doing. It was Halloween… I was extremely surprised with the little goodie bag that they personalized for my dog! I would highly recommend OcuVet!

Wonderful surgeon! Dr. Marchione fixed my dog's lower eyelid entropion and my dog is so much happier. He's no longer squinting and blinking and eyes watering and there was no scarring or anything. All the techs and front desk staff were friendly and everyone took plenty of time to explain the options, surgery, and after care.

I came in for my dogs scratched eyes, he needed a diamond burr procedure. We took him to another place and they said it would be 5k for both of his eyes. We decided to go with a different doctor. A friend recommended us to OcuVet. As soon as we walked in we felt the warmth of all the staff, and on top of that they told us he didn’t need both eyes done just one! We felt relief that he only needed to do one eye. The procedure only took less than 30 minutes, he is now doing much better. Thank you OcuVet for helping our baby get better! Couldn’t recommend you guys enough!!

I brought my 7 year old French bulldog for a comprehensive evaluation with Dr. Lanuza. And wow, was I impressed. Unfortunately Ive had many dogs throughout my life all with different health issues, so I’m very particular when it comes to my pup’s health. Earlier this year my dog started having eye issues and I took her to a different vet. Coming to see Dr. Lanuza was a completely different experience. He was so thorough and extremely quick. He took his time to fully explain the procedure to me and I feel very comfortable to have him work on my dog. His staff is amazing too. They all work so well together. And my dog is not the easiest to work on, but they handled her so well. I was very amazed. And they have pretty affordable pricing. All of this to say, I had a great experience from the moment I called to schedule the appointment to the moment I left my appointment. It’s very nice to see a vet team that is skilled and cares about the animals. Thank you.
