How to Save Money at Rosemead 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.

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.

I have been coming here whenever my cats have health concerns. The most recent experience was not great. I walked-in at 9 am because my cat has discharge in one of her eyes. I was told that the wait could be from 30 minutes to 3 hours. They told me that I can return at 2:30pm if my cat was not being seen until 12 pm. I asked to see if I can wait at the waiting room because it was too hot to wait outside. However, staff said that I cannot wait in the waiting room. The heat was a bit unbearable, and I am sure that it was difficult on my fur baby. After 3 hours wait in the heat, my cat was able to get some medical attention. The vet’s bed side manner was decent. It was not as bad how the review described. Price was decent.

I was very disappointed in this animal hospital. I had a very wild feral cat Rosemead Animal Control picked up for me. I wanted to pay for the cat so others who needed to use the funding established by Rosemead would be available. I wanted to pay for 1 day of boarding, so the wild cat could rest after surgery. Rosemead Animal Hospital charged me three days board, because the animal control dropped the cat off on Sunday. They said they charged me the rate they would charge Rosemead...end of story it cost me over a $100.00 to get a wild cat neutered because I care...if I went with the trap and release program it would have cost me NOTHING! I have not seen the released feral again!

I really enjoy the staff here. Everyone is really friendly, including the vet! Over time I started to notice that some times they can’t take walk ins and it’s getting longer to schedule appointments. But that just goes to show you everyone else likes this place too. Parking lot is a little small (I think there’s room in the back) and it’s a small office but they’re great I promise! Also much cheaper than other offices so win win!!

The front desk is extremely bad. They would not even open an account for animals by advance. I hope I have never visited here for cheaper price. Is that the reason they hire mean people working at front desk would be cheaper? Waste my cat and my time
