How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Masson Veterinary Hospital

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.

They are kind, compassionate, patient. And have been able to see some urgent care issues quickly. I really appreciate the whole staff. They make a great team. Small, "family style" as I call it. Good communication. Always welcoming, and the vets have a good bedside manner with the patients and owners.

The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making my pets feel comfortable during their visits. The veterinarians demonstrated a high level of expertise and provided thorough explanations of the treatments and procedures. The facility was clean and well-maintained, creating a safe environment.

I took my dog in today because this vet stopped approving her skin allergy medication because they said they wanted to do a blood test. This prevented my dog from getting the medication she needed and turned a small rash into the picture seen below and over $600 in charges. I paid for a check up in addition to many other things and was told the vet was too busy to speak with me (even though I was the only customer at the end of my visit). I've never been to a vet where I wasn't allowed to see the vet. When I paid, I requested to have the blood test results sent to me. The receptionist looked uneasy and then later met me at my car to tell me my dog needed to go back in because they never did a blood test although I paid for one. I feel that I was taken advantage of. The support staff was friendly and kind but that can't make up for a vet who refuses to speak with paying customers and their sick pets. I would never badmouth a business in trying times like these. I'm sharing because this experience was way out of the norm and people really should find a vet elsewhere.

I’ve been taking our two dogs to Dr. Tais for almost four years. She is knowledgeable, kind and our girls LOVE her! She’s done dental cleanings for both dogs including teeth extractions, spayed our younger dog, and helped our senior dog with a heart condition. I appreciate that Dr. Tais explains possible options, her findings, and that she always welcomes my questions. I wouldn’t take our girls to anyone else. Since Dr. Tais has joined Masson, I’ve been very pleased with how quickly we can get an appointment and with the Masson team. They all show so much love to every fur baby I’ve seen them interact with!

Dr. Tais Perpetuo has been my fur baby's vet for nearly 12 years! From the week I adopted him to the senior statesman he has blossomed into. She's seen him through Parvo virus, manage, broken nails, cracked tooth and overall general maintenance. She's knowledgeable, compassion and provides her patients with information to assist in decisions about their pets.
