How to Save Money at Companion Animal 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.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting 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. Colburn is a superb veterinarian, in my opinion. She focuses 100 percent on your pet, analyzes with data but also has a keen intuition as well. The best vet in the desert, if you ask me. Staff is friendly, kind and efficient. Highly recommend.

I took my dog there as an emergency to be seen because he wasn’t acting himself and he had developed two large masses on his chest. The receptionist Ally was so warm and kind and she helped us get an appointment as quickly as possible, and the vet techs took him and took care of him right away until the Doctor arrived. And Dr. Robinson was so amazing!! From the way she explained everything with complete honesty to me, and the way she took care of and had her techs take care of Richard... I am truly appreciative. They stayed almost 3 hours after closing when his abscess ruptured, just to make sure he was treated and safe to be taken home. I am so grateful to everyone who was there that night!! I apologize, but I do not remember the techs that were helping my dog, or the incredible sweet receptionist who stayed late as well and never seemed irritated or upset with me that they had to work overtime.. just truly wanted to help. I can’t say enough great things about Companion Animal Clinic!! I will always refer them to anyone I know. And you can’t beat their prices, because they are EXTREMELY AFFORDABLE!!! I have never been to a vet clinic that was so affordable, and I’m truly appreciative of that as well! I just love them, and my dog, Richard loves them all too!! 🥰 Attached is a picture of my dog after his treatment that night! 😁

The Doctor is very knowledgeable, friendly and thorough. The tech was very nice. The front staff were all nice too. I had a very short wait time in a pleasant waiting room. And most importantly, they took great care of my cat, George.

The most behavior savvy, proactive treatment, and communicative clinic in a several hour radius. My animals LOVE the staff so do I and my family. It's always immaculate and the staff are amazing. The vets are A+++! I adore this clinic and I highly recomend.

Apparently a dog in severe pain isn't an emergency and they are booked out a month. One vet no staff. Rude receptionist who hates her life. Shut this place down. This place and vca is all we have out here! Rediculous!
