How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Mountain Lake Family Vet

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

What a peaceful, inviting and extremely clean office. We had a Sunday appointment which is amazing since we work during the week. Kayla was very calm and the intake was not stressful for my cat Piper. We followed Dr Krantz to this office after she cared for our two dogs. They loved her and didn’t realize they were at the vet! My cat is a rescue, so is very stressed in any new experiences. I gave her gabapentin 3.5 hours before and she is less stressed but the office is quiet and like I said peaceful. We also brought my son’s cat. A rescue. Dr Kranz immediately saw a broken tooth in the back of his mouth that is dangling. We had nails clipped and shots updated to prepare for grooming. She is very chill with my pets which I appreciate.

When all else failed, when no vet in the city could find the time to take care of a puppy desperately in need because “we weren’t a client” Mountain Lake stepped up. The staff is incredible. From the front desk to the doctor. Absolutely amazing. I will be transferring all of my pets here with a smile on my face. Thanks for helping save Leo.

Dr. Kranz is awesome! She used to be at Animal Hosp of Falcon. I tracked her down...she opened her own clinic in Monument. My Cavalier needs a special kind of surgery and she knows what needs to be done. Plus they will be doing my pups teeth cleaning so she doesn't need to be put under twice. Highly recommended!

Dr.Krantz has taken care of my dog and my cat ‘KITTY’, both of which lived happy very long lives due to great help of the great veterinary care of her. I want to say thanks to her and her staff! I look forward to my return. I highly recommend the expert care and true respect and love I have experienced.

MLFV is one of those types of vet clinics where you can tell right off the bat that the doctors and staff care more about your animal than they do about the profits earned from your visit. Very caring and thoughtful on all fronts. It has been a long time since I have taken my dogs to a clinic that treated me like a human as well as treated my dogs like the four legged, quasi-humans that they really are. The best in Monument. Hard stop.
