How to Save on Veterinary Costs at High Plains Veterinary Hospital

Preventive care

Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.

Compare prescription pricing

Some pet medications prescribed at veterinary clinics may also be available through local or online pharmacies. It can be helpful to compare pricing when appropriate to reduce ongoing medication costs.

Consider pet insurance

The whole staff was very professional and helpful from being to end. I had to put my baby Joules down. She had cancer in her nose and it was affecting her ability to breathe. Although this was a devastating event for my family. This clinic made sure Joules went with dignity. I was given Joules' ashes in a very timely manner in an amazing decorative urn and we received a clay impression of her paw print. A few days later we received a handwritten letter from all providers who were hands-on with us expressing their condolences and how lucky Joules was to have a family like us. This is the place to take your loved ones to get the best care.

I brought my cat, Prime Minister Winston Purchill, here after moving to Colorado Springs. They found a broken tooth in my baby. They were able to fit him in for surgery soon after. They took such good care of my cat. They explained the costs very well. They also called a few days later to check on him as courtesy. I am glad to have chosen this vet. I will also be bringing my other cat, President Theodore Meowsevelt! Thank you, High Plains :)

I have been going to see this vet for a long time now and am so very impressed with this vet office, in particular Dr. Bizzul. I had a 15 year old pit bull Nala that was a treasured member of my family and Dr. Bizzul always treated her with such care and kindness and never pushed us to pay for expensive procedures for her that would not add much to her quality of life. We ended up having to put her down early this month because her quality of life was poor and it was time. Dr. Bizzul was incredibly kind and so patient with us and helped us work through that whole process. Losing my sweet Nala was the hardest thing I have ever been through and the team at High Plains made this awful and sad process easier. I will never be able to thank Dr. Bizzul enough for her gentleness and compassion at the worst moment of my life, and if you choose to bring your animals here, you will be in good hands.

Normally, your pets hate going to the vet. However, when you have staff that is kind, loving, and always willing to give you a treat, it tends to be their favorite place. This place is exceedingly friendly, gentle, and professional! They always explain the procedures, medications, and help you when you need them. I've taken Lily here for years and have always received the best service and care- definitely recommended!

My husband and I were in search of a new veterinarian that still showed the true love and care for animals since our last vet at Crossroads animal hospital, was completely checked out. Dr. Moore and the FULL staff exceeded all of our expectations!!! I wish I could name everyone from the front desk, vet techs, and more. Just trust me everyone at this office cares deeply on giving excellent care not only to your family pets but to us the owners!! My 12 year old yorkie who was completely put on the back burner at our last vet, was thoroughly taken care of through out her extensive dental surgery. The first time I’ve ever seen a vet go the extra mile to make sure we have the longest time with her and that she has the fullest life left!! I can’t thank you all enough on how you have made our family feel. We feel truly blessed to be apart of this amazing veterinarian hospital family now. All three of our dogs have had their annuals for 2023 at the last awful place, but after this wonderful experience with our yorkie we don’t even mind spending the extra money to get a much better and THOROUGH proper check up again with High Plains!! They too are already scheduled for new annuals with Dr. Moore for 2023 and we couldn’t feel happier to know they will get the proper check up they deserve now!!! We highly highly recommend High Plains Veterinary Hospital!!
