How to Save Money at Colonial Animal Hospital
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.

I am a long-standing customer of Colonial animal hospital and I am a huge fan. My veterinarian is as important as my primary care doctor and I feel blessed to have found Dr Rob Martin and his entire staff. I have received great care for my many pets and even when I had very sick animals the Dr and staff were empathetic and treated me and my pet like family. I have referred many of my friends and neighbors to Colonial Animal & they too are all very happy to have piece of mind with the care of their fur babies!

Dr Martin and his staff including Laurie and Madison have gone beyond to ensure the well being of our senior dachshund Rio Moon. They know their stuff! Dr Martin takes a in-depth approach at evaluating your pets condition and does it so compassionately. I’ve had many senior rescue dogs and many vets never have I been treated and educated about my baby’s condition as I have with Colonial. I trust them completely and would recommend them to everyone. Thanks a million.

Great experience! Our cat had an eye injury and we were able to get an appointment the same-day, which we were so grateful for. Pricing was very reasonable and straight forward. Everyone we spoke with was so friendly, helpful and knowledge. Dr Martin was absolutely great. They even checked in with us the next day to check in on our pet and make sure she was doing better. We live very close, so we'll definitely be back for any of our animal health needs. Definitely recommending to friends and family!
