How to Save Money at My Pets Wellness — Daytona Beach (Dogtona Beach)

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.

A shout out to the amazing staff Dr Marie, Dr Jason, Tracie, Shannon and Maddie at My pet wellness in the Ormond and Daytona offices! Wonderful and super sweet from beginning to end! My dogs were treated with lots of love! Very thorough with their exams and communicated clearly so I could understand! Dr Marie found a mass “out of no where”…on my dog..! Thank you for being so good at what you do! ❤️

My little Lulu, a teacup chihuahua is having a tough few weeks. The support, love and compassion that Tracie, Carrie and Dr. Jason gave us both was more than I could have asked for. I would recommend My Pet Wellness to everyone I know and anyone in need of care for their Fur Babies. Not only did they give her the best treatment available but they did it with all the love as if she was their own. Thank you team, I appreciate each of you and can’t begin to show my gratitude. All my best!!

I brought my pet in kind of emergently with a pretty angry looking, allergic reaction to paws and chin area. I had one vet at my normal spot that I trusted, of course, was sick until Friday and the other I didn’t trust at all, so I chose this spot and they were wonderful! The staff was very kind and not afraid to really get in and examine, the areas that needed to be examined (my dog looks a little scary, but he’s really a big baby). I was really impressed with Shannon’s advise (as she had similar issues with her dog as well). I will definitely return for the check up and they may just have themselves a new client! Thanks guys for all your help with this issue so quickly. Tan

This was my first visit with My Pets Wellness and I must say I was pleasantly surprised and very impressed! I got to see Dr. Valerie and she proceeded to give my baby the absolute most thorough exam I have ever seen. I’m saying she checked Faith out from the rooter to the tooter. Not missing a single inch. Not only is Dr Valerie a terrific and caring vet but she’s backed up by an amazing staff as well as 2 or 3 more vets. I’m not really sure which. My Pets Wellness has definitely earned a grateful and relieved patron. They are knowledgeable as you’d expect and they also add that personal touch. You can’t go wrong with this team!!

Dr Ashby is an amazing dr. I love her so much! She has taken care of my pups for many years. She helped me through one of the hardest things a dog mom has to do (if you know what I mean 🌈 ) her tech was also very sweet and empathetic during that visit.. I received the sweetest card from them as well. 🥺 Very clean facility. Staff were friendly. Easy to make an appointment. Everyone was very nice. Dr Ashby is a very talented, and I trust her medical decisions and opinions. Overall I like this facility, one of the best I’ve found in the Daytona, ormond area.
