How to Save Money at Neighborhood Pet 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.

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’ve been bringing my two dogs and two cats here since they were all first adopted. Dr. Montz has taken such good care of all of them and is always so patient with all of my questions and concerns. You can tell that the entire staff here are fellow animal lovers as their empathy and compassion for your fur kids is absolutely apparent. I recently had to have TPLO surgery for one of my dogs and I was so anxious. Neighborhood Pet Clinic and their board certified surgeon took amazing care of him and he’s now home recovering quickly. One of the vet technicians, Tara, stayed with him overnight at the clinic right after the surgery and made sure to update me on his well-being. She even sent me a pic of my baby to set my mind at ease 🐾☺️. The front office staff here offer some of the best customer service I’ve encountered. They’re always accommodating and understanding. Special shout-out to Dove who is continually professional and supportive whenever I call or come in for an appointment. Thank you, Neighborhood Pet Clinic! Love- Atticus, Harper, Dune, and Fiver 🐶🐶🐱🐱❤️

We discovered this place as it is so close to our house and our cats don’t exactly love long car rides. Scheduling appointments is a breeze. Usually need to book a week or two out but not a huge issue for standard check ups. They’re always willing to accommodate otherwise. The woman at the front desk is always so sweet and funny. I love having to chat with her when I come in or over the phone. She’s very thorough and kind. All the nurses have been attentive as well. Never had any issues on the couple visits I’ve had with our two cats. Dr Larry Montz is such a great vet too. This last time we went, we were late because we had issues getting our cat into her carrier. He was talking to a dog parent on the phone and being very patient with all of her questions then took the time to be just as thorough with our visit. Always eager to answer questions and address concerns. Other vets will try to make a sales pitch the entire checkup and I never felt that way with Larry. He truly has the animals’ best interests in mind and same goes for the loving families. I would recommend this vet to anyone!

I can’t say enough good things about this veterinarian office. They listened to me about my concerns with my cats health issues with compassion when other vets dismissed me. They price fairly and don’t charge an arm and a leg for necessary medical care. They went above and beyond when it was my cats time to cross the rainbow bridge. They got me in immediately and created a safe and comfortable space for us to say our goodbyes, they approached me and my cat with such love and empathy. I cannot recommend this place enough to anyone who’s looking for a compassionate, honest, caring pet clinic. Thank you neighborhood pet clinic for everything. ❤️

Great small animal practice. Friendly front desk staff, knowledgeable vet techs, and Dr. Montz himself is top-notch. They are always kind and understanding, empathetic in sad times, and always available to see our fur babies.

The office manger is really really rude. Have had multiple encounters with her where she is completely unprofessional with how she has talked with us. Never had a problem with the doctor until recently as well when he wasn’t listening to me when I was trying to explain what was going on with on of our dogs and just talked over me. I highly recommend going to a different veterinary office where they have doctors/staff that actually cares to listen to what you have to say. Doesn’t even deserve one star.
