How to Save Money at Townsgate 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.

Dr. K and his staff are the most caring and loving to my 3 fur babies! We are always welcomed with friendly service and a smile! They took such great care with my 13 year old pup! He needed major dental work and with him being a senior dog I was really nervous but they all made me feel at ease! Thank you for all you do for our precious fur babies! I would not trust anyone else!

After many experiences with various vets, I was so frustrated feeling that all the vets care about is money and no true compassion for my animals. After doing lots of research online, I found Dr. Kiumarsi. That was over 6 years ago and I have not gone to another vet since. Dr. K truly cares about the animals and their owners. He takes the time to thoroughly explain everything to the pet parents and never makes you feel rushed during the appointments. I always ask a million questions and he is so patient and knowledgeable with his answers. He will never try to add on extra tests and does everything he can to save pet parents money as much as possible. Also, the staff, Stephanie and V are absolutely fantastic. So welcoming, warm, and knowledgeable. I am so grateful to have found this vet! It is such a professional, warm, and organized practice. If you live in the Westlake Village / Thousand Oaks area you 100000% should bring your pet here!

Oustanding vet! Dr. K is very professional and great when examining our dog. Him and his staff, especially Stephanie and V, are extremely welcoming and kind. They were able to accommodate us with an appointment so easily and quickly. He also gives great advice for how to care for your pets and is thorough.
