How to Save Money at All Valley Pet 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've been coming here for years. Sometimes, they are hard to get ahold of. The phone will ring and ring and nobody will pick up or you'll be placed on hold for a while but once there everyone is nice and helpful. It just seems like phones aren't their priority. Every time we go, my pets get lots of love. While my cats hate it, my mom's dog, whom I take as well, loves it 🤣

We have gone to this vet for years and years, back when Dr Vale was vet. Although the front desk atmosphere just isn’t the same, the staff is still very friendly and helpful. There was confusion with my appointment and they still got me in when I arrived, as my communication from them was for the time I arrived. The care from the vet was top notch. Pleasantly surprised that they still offer a puppy program, as a vet we have gone to recently offers a version of it, but nothing like theirs. It is very cost friendly and they also offer the vaccine clinic still. Again, It isn’t the same as when Dr Vale ran the show, I’m sure nothing ever will be, but I’m still very pleased with our most recent experience! Most importantly, our puppy Basil was happy, they gave her lots of treats, told her she was a good girl and the floors and tables were very clean and even had a blanket on it for her.

I'm an OTR truck driver i was around the area on a weekend about 3 weeks ago when i noticed my cat had an ingrown claw that got infected. They were able to trim it, gave her an antibiotic shot and bandaged it. They did an amazing job, and fortunately they were one of the only vets open that Sunday. I did have to come back in the following Monday cause she was able to shake the bandage off but once they reapplied it, it stayed on until it healed. Waiting times weren't bad, decently priced. And the receptionist on Monday was kinda cute 😅

I had a great experience at All Valley Pet Hospital. I suspected my dog got a foxtail stuck in her nose. They were able to get me in for a same day appointment and removed the foxtail very quickly. The staff was also very nice and helpful. Thank you!

I took my dog as an emergency she was having possible sezuires, and I was thankful how fast and quickly everyone attended to her. I especially appreciated Nicole's extra loving hands for my roxy girl. Thank you, All Valley Pet!
