How to Save Money at Wellness 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.

Dr. Nina is a outstanding veterinarian. She has been our vet for over 10 years. She has had to operate on our dogs, including an emergency surgery. She has been with us though our dogs heart surgery, lung surgery and been with us though our dogs cancer. We can't ask for a more up to date, qualified, and all around caring vet. We recommend Dr. Nina to all our friends and family, we totally trust her.

I can’t say enough good! Dr Nina and her staff are nothing short of amazing. Dr Nina has so much patience and goes above and beyond to do what she can to help your fur baby! I will be forever thankful for walking through those doors! She did everything she could to help our Sophie. Unfortunately we just lost our Sophie girl and Dr Nina and her staff were so kind and made the process as comfortable as that process can be.

My family is so happy to have found Dr. Nina! Our 13-year-old cat never liked going to the Veterinarian's office until now! Dr. Nina is so sweet, kind and caring and it showed with my cats behavior. He was calm and cooperative which was shocking. Dr. Nina is definitely cat and mother approved! Thank you!

Highly recommend Dr Luna and her team!

We rescued a pup that needed immediate attention. Blair was able to get us worked in quickly, with next day appointment availability. Dr.Nina and here assistant were attentive to our immediate needs but also worked to put together a longterm treatment plan for our sweet girl. Happy to call Wellness Animal Hospital our home for vet care and cannot recommend them enough!
