How to Save Money at Tuolumne Veterinary 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.

Oh my sweet old Hazel, I miss you so much. These guys really handled one of the hardest moments in life with grace and dignity, so much love and respect. Thank you for being there for me and Hazel as we walked her over that rainbow bridge 💜

I cannot adequately convey how thankful I am to Dr. Rubinstein and entire staff for the care my beloved bull Terrier Snuggles has kindly received over the last two weeks. They managed to work her in quickly for severe anemia, which was treated immediately,the bleeding tumor was removed. It's like a miracle to me, as she had to be carried in, but was able to walk out the next morning. Snuggles is still on the road to recovery, but so much better and I'm incredibly grateful to have her a little longer. Morgan is great and conveys genuine love and concern for your pet. Also thanks to Jason and Sarah and Doctor for being so diplomatic and patient with us while explaining our options. Very pleased, thank you so much, Karen

So thankful we tried this vet out!!! We are helicopter pet owners and they made our dogs care go so smoothly and eased our anxiety even with how many tests that had to be done. The staff is incredibly friendly, supportive and so helpful in every way. We left feeling like our fur baby now belongs to a family- whereas when we went to mono way vet the care was only about the money. Overall best experience we have had, and will continue to give them our service

I have a lot of animals. I've been coming to this Vet for seven years now and was moved enough to write a review. It's a scary thing when an animal, you love is suffering end it also takes some degree of trust to find someone to take care of them. This vet has pulled us out of so many scrapes that i just wanted To show our appreciation for their professional work and Obvious passion for what they do, both Allen, and the people that work for him. I would never go anywhere else and thank you
