How to Save Money at Tustin Legacy 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.

I just started bringing my dog and cat to TLAH in February, and I’m really glad I did! My dog Honey Bear saw Dr. Hayek, and my cat Sketchers saw Dr. Cruz-gsell. Both vets were knowledgeable and kind, and they took the time to answer my questions/concerns I had about my babies, they didn’t try to rush through the appt. I admit that I can be an over paranoid fur mama, so I am grateful for finding this vet office with such caring vets, vet techs, and front desk reps! The girls at the front desk have been super sweet the few times I have been there so far! I’d also like to mention Aurelia (I believe that’s her name, I had to look at the TLAH website) made a great 1st impression when I went to TLAH for the 1st time! She was the vet tech for Honey Bear’s appt, and she gave off this positive energy that made me feel like she genuinely cares and is excited about her job and what she does! Overall, so far I am impressed with both the quality of care and customer service I had received at TLAH and would highly recommend them!

I’ve been hesitant in changing my vet since moving to the OC 3 years ago. But traveling 80 miles back to the previous Vet was no longer sustainable. So happy I found this hospital! I was very grateful for the doctor and staff for taking great care of my dog. I appreciate the doctor giving me all the details and cost options to treat my dog’s issue. Everyone exceeded my expectations! And love the option that I was able to check my dog in and the doctor would to see her as soon as she was able to (because they were booked and I needed to have my dog be seen asap). Would highly recommend and trust this hospital to take care of your pet!

Great place with a quiet, calm, pet-centered atmosphere. The staff don’t rush you through. The doctor and techs spend a lot of time discussing any concerns and plans to address them. The doctor was focused on the needs of our cat and sensitive to how he was dealing with the visit. 10 out of 10.

Our beloved puppy, Phoebe went to surgery. The hospital doctor kept in touch with us from beginning to end. Patiently explain every detail. Phoebe's operation was very successful. Especially after the operation, the nurse Liv in the hospital inquired and follow up by phone for phoebe. Those make us feel very relieved.

Great staff, they always answer every question and treat your doggy kid as one of their own! We’re moving to another city but I’m sure my Mia will miss them very much.
