How to Save Money at Byers Peak Vet Clinic Inc

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.

Shauna has been taking care of my dogs and horse for 40 years. The extra effort, care and compassion for difficult moments is from the heart. We always made good decisions for the benefit of the animal. One night Shauna and Matt did emergency surgery at 1 am to help Moji the laberneses and pulled through to good recovery. I'd see her for my injuries if we could. A great vet and person. Tell her Hi from Winter Park Jack

Living in a small town can pose a challenge when looking for quality care at a reasonable price, so I was very pleased to find this vet clinic. My 8y/o dog needed a checkup and teeth cleaning and they did an amazing job taking care of him. For being such a small team, they are so efficient and the doctor is very knowledgeable and really cares to answer any questions thoroughly. She did an amazing job cleaning his teeth; I see a huge difference in his breath. Overall, I’m so happy with the care my dog received, will definitely keep taking him here.

Might be the BEST vet experience I have ever had! My 6yr old lab was suddenly very ill (vomit and limping). I was in WP for a mini get-away and not sure what to do- our vet is over 2 hours away! This office was booked solid (it was the day before a LONG holiday weekend) and there were limited office hours left in the day- Eddie (my pup) and I were lucky enough that Dr. Shauna Omlie is such a compassionate AND knowledgeable professional! She and her lovely staff fit us in for a full evaluation even though the schedule was packed! I left with peace of mind and some new discoveries about Eddie's health that had not been mentioned by our vet at home- Dr. Omlie made sure I saw x-rays and really understood the blood work. I wish Dr. Omlie had offices in the Denver/ Boulder area!! I can not thank you all enough for your empathy, care and expertise! This is one happy pup momma! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Absolutely amazing experience here from start to finish. They will definitely be our vet from now on. Diox did so good even with doing nails and blood test and two vaccines and he usually freaks out at vet offices but stayed pretty mellow here. Thank y'all so so much for making sure our lil one is up to date with everything and in good health!!

The only place I will take my service dog Pennee. The Dr Shauna and all the staff are the best, I have no doubt that they care about my dog, they care about me and my relationship with my service dog. For me being disabled my dog is very special to me and I feel that from the staff. They are not just animals they are family.
