How to Save Money at Noe 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.

Unbelievably friendly and helpful. I'm very picky about my vet and, after moving, I was concerned I wouldn't find a new, great vet. Thankfully Noe Animal Hospital opened and I couldn't be happier. They're so attentive, helpful, clear, and genuinely care about their patients. The facilities are super nice too. Strong strong STRONG recommend.

My rescue pup Charlie has been a patient of Dr. Gopisetty and Lead Nurse Devon for a few years now. It was very exciting to see that the Dr. was opening a new practice with Dr. Goodrich. Dr. Gopisetty and Lead Nurse Devon take the time to work with my fearful dog. There is straightforward communication between everyone. They are both very kind and patient. It is apparent that they care about their work and the well-being of the pets they see. There is definitely a trusting relationship there. For these reasons, I will happily drive from the peninsula to come to this clinic. The clinic is modern and clean. The prices are fair. Allow some time for street parking depending on your appointment time. Highly recommend!

I’ve been bringing both of my dogs here since they opened and have received great care. The team is proactive at reaching out to let me know when my dogs need vaccine boosters/check-ups and they’re also really good at fitting me in for more urgent care when needed. The service has been phenomenal and unlike anywhere else that I’ve taken my dogs. I’m really happy this animal hospital came to Noe!

I highly recommend Noe Animal Hospital if you're looking for a vet. We began taking our dog there for his neuter procedure shortly after it opened, and we have been thrilled with the care has received ever since. The entire staff clearly cares about their work, and we've received personalized and informative care every time we have needed it. Another plus is that our dog is thrilled every time we go inside!

We are so thankful for Noe Valley Hospital and could probably credit them for saving our 2.5 year old dog's life! Noe Valley Hospital is actually our 3rd vet. Neither of the previous 2 vets noticed our dog's severe heart murmur during his intake exam. Noe Animal Hospital caught it and worked closely with us, staying involved through the entire process. We are so thankful for their thoroughness, knowledge, and insight. Not to mention, our dog loves Noe Valley Hospital and tries to drag us their every time we are walking down 24th street (they give out treats!). We highly recommend them!
