How to Save on Veterinary Costs at La Cumbre Animal 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

La Cumbre Animal Hospital has proved over the past few years to be extremely reliable for our two dogs. The front desk is always kind and the care that we have received has been incredible.Dr Holmes is very impressive , so loving and always gives superior advice. Fairly recently we had an emergency with our golden retriever and they helped us right in the middle of the floor at the front office, it was scary. They were so calm and quick and I was crying hysterically. I’m happy to report our golden is happy and well now. I still owe them flowers. Thank you to all the incredible doctors and staff at La Cumbre. Your love and care is far superior always!

Dr. deHaas is an amazing vet. She’s kind, calm, well informed, communicative, and handles my puppy very well. Her stable, steady energy allows my pup to feel safe. He’s more cooperative with her than other vets he’s experienced in the past. We will definitely continue to see Dr. deHaas. La Cumbre Animal hospital has great vet techs and staff as well. I recommend.

I love LCAH. My 16yr old plus pup is totally in love with Dr. Bev. Been seeing her forever . The staff is friendly and efficient..always giving the respect and honoring when your animal is in crisis…(Am I the only helicopter mom here?) I don’t think you could work there if you weren’t a person of compassion. And check out their new offices..so beautiful. Any of the DVMs with the group will give your fur baby the attention and love they deserve. Sadly we lost Bobo August 17th. As always, LCAH treated him and us with much compassion and care. We welcomed our new little Ms. Maizie in September and of course brought her to the most loving place in town for her care and well being. She was a hit! I cannot thank them enough for their dedication and care.
