How to Save on Veterinary Costs at DeBary Animal Clinic

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

I foster dogs and have taken a number of them to DAC. In one instance, the dog needed to go to an eye specialist. Dr. Richie even contacted them so they could work together in order for the dog to get the best care. I've NEVER had a vet do that. There have been times that I needed to get a foster or one of my own dogs in right away. Maybe it was just luck, but I was able to get them in. When Dr. Richie or Dr. Sam talk to you, they talk slowly so it's easier to "soak it all in." I only wish we could get a discount for the rescue. Otherwise, I'm very happy with the service and care my dogs get.

17 year old Doberman in pain with urinary tract infection. Called to get her in ASAP and was told they can't take her for 2 days because they have to have tests done on her. We just had numerous tests done at their clinic a month prior and $500. No need for more tests! She was given medication for this and we just needed more meds. All about the money.! We went elsewhere. Next morning

Very kind and compassionate staff and veterinarians. Dr. Sam is always explaining things well. The fact everything is bundled can be frustrating, but overall we're happy to have a caring vet so close to home.

We will be taking our business elsewhere. I’m extremely disappointed on the receptionist for the 2nd time being rude and disrespectful because of changing our time again. 1st appointment we showed up for our scheduled time and without our knowledge or being contacted by them that it was changed to a different day and time. My fiancé called this morning to confirm our appointment for this week and same thing happened, appointment was set for 11 and they blamed us that it was at 3 and would be charged if we wanted to move the appointment to another time?! This is completely unacceptable and interrupts our scheduled time for work and other obligations. Please contact the establishment first if you plan on going here, they lack the respect and understanding to people’s outside lives.

My German shepherd had a swollen lip, and we took her to petco. Mistake 1. The Petco vet looked at her for maybe 5 min or so and said, "We have no clue what it is, so here is a bunch of meds to cover all bases." So I paid for the meds and visit. Have her take the medicine aaaaaand no change(mistake 2). So, I did what I should have from the beginning. I went to DeBary Animal Clinic. I made an appointment and was taken back as soon as I arrived. The staff was fantastic, from check-in to check out. The vet and vet tech had a very good idea of what the problem was and prescribed the right amount of medicine to fix the problem. I highly recommend bringing your pets here. I know this is the only place I'll trust with my furr baby. 10/10
