How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Destin 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.

An extremely good experience here. The two different vets we have had are both extremely friendly, the building is clean, and the prices are not Destin prices. Very affordable. They love on our German Sheps and took time with our old boy after he fell. Comfortable & kind.

The doctors are incredibly knowledgeable and the staff is so loving. They are good communicators and let you know not only what is going on with your pet, but also the finances that may be involved. They have been honest the whole way through for a variety of problems my kitty has had. In the short time I have been seeing them, they have accurately diagnosed and treated my senior cat for several different problems. All of the treatment has been successful. They encourage you to be a connected part of the care they give the animal. This includes showing imaging, allowing you to recognize symptoms, and being in tune with your animal. They have done a great job explaining what is going on with my pet and how I should been involved with a successful treatment plan. I am so grateful for them and their care of my kitty.

My dog loves this clinic. He drags me there everytime we walk by. Mind you he gets all of his vaccines at this location. We also travel a lot and board him with them. He still wants to go in every single time! 🐶

Destin Animal Clinic is an extremely compassionate and professional veterinarian! We were on vacation with our sweet, fur baby, Peanut and we had a medical emergency and had to visit this clinic. They were honest in the diagnosis and the Dr. and staff went the extra mile in speaking to us and going over all of the details. They kept our Peanut comfortable and provided the best care possible! We are extremely grateful for the care that they provided Peanut and WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND them to anyone needing a veterinarian.

If I could give this clinic zero stars I would. We took our dog here and they were so abusive and neglectful. They were unhelpful and made me feel like a horrible person for not having my dog sedated when they were the ones who were grabbing him and terrifying him when he was so scared. He peed on me and was so terrified and they did nothing to help the situation. After they left the girl working was annoyed that she had to clean up the pee. I just recently tried to take my dog back to the vet and he is so traumatized. It is very heartbreaking. I would not recommend taking any animal to this vet in a million years.
