How to Save Money at Ohana Veterinary Clinic

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.

Front office is a disaster. Doctors are great but the mismanagement of the scheduling and record keeping is not worth the trouble of continuing my pet's care at this clinic. It's a given that most vet clinics are run like a mill, but when the front office is so disorganized that they can't even find your scheduled appointments, it's just unnecessary to deal with the poor customer service. 😑

Some of the most caring doctors, techs and office workers you will find anywhere. They really care about the animals. My little Trouper is living proof of that dedication and love. I found her with a massive gash in her abdomen that had been there for several weeks, I honestly didn't think she would make it to even be able to have the surgery. But they didn't quit on her and at I got the call at 9:30pm that she had made it through surgery. Still in serious condition but she was a fighter and so was everyone at Ohana! It took 6 weeks but she finally healed and was able to come home. The first 2 pictures shows her when she got brought in and the next picture was taken just over a month later, hard to believe it's the same cat! They are amazing!

I have been taking my precious pets to Ohana veterinarian for over 14 years. I would never think of taking my precious pet anywhere else. They have always taken care of my babies with love. I had 2 Akita and Jindu mix. Trojan had a bad skin condition they worked tirelessly to help resolve his issues and treated him with so much love and care. His sister Akeena always had issues with her ears. Again they worked tirelessly to resolve her issues and treated her with the up most love. When unfortunately Trojan and Akeena passed away I received a beautiful bouquet of flowers from Ohana Veterinary knowing they acknowledged that my precious babies passed really meant the world to me. Now I have a pug and chihuahua mix his name is Dude. When I received Dude from the shelter I knew exactly where I would be taking him for all his medical needs and that is Ohana Veterinary. They make Dude and I feel like family. They are very knowledgeable in everything they do. The staff and doctors are exceptional. I highly recommend them.

Nice people who work there but way too pricey for a spay/neuter. $60 mandatory check up, $90 bloodwork, plus $600 to $700 for the procedure. Probably not including the medication either. So we’re looking at almost $1000 for everything. No thank you!
