How to Save Money at Englewood 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.

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.

I love the staff and doctors here when I got my first big girl I brought her here to have her taken care of in the second time I brought her in. They had kittens and I took one of those home and she has been the biggest blessing I’ve ever had, and since I’ve kept going to them, and now I live almost an hour away and I still choose to make that drive because they are worth it in my eyes. The staff is incredible. Dr. Katie!! has taken care of my kids from the start and she’s never steered me wrong. It’s a great hospital.

If you want the best for your pet Dr. Chris is it. I was raised by a practical and honest vet and have spent my adulthood trying to find a similar practitioner for my pets. Dr Chris is as close as I have found. He is honest, direct, and addresses the situation without unnecessary procedures. The clinic was hit hard by Ian and they are trying to rebuild. I am so thankful they are open and operating during this trying time. Gunner and I are so appreciative of the help we have gotten from the staff and Dr. Chris.

My dog had surgery, he was neutered, he ended up with a huge hematoma, due to the surgery. I took him in and ended up having to take him to the emergency vet, had to pay a ridiculous amount of money, and this place never even offered to reimburse me. This incident was due to my dog having surgery there. I was told by the emergency vet that I should not have my animals have any other surgeries there. I gave them the benefit of the doubt, and called for an emergency appointment and was told they have nothing available for 3-4days. I have a dog and a cat that have been going there for about 1.5 years, but they couldn't see my sick animal??? Unacceptable!! Needless to say, I had to find another vet. I would not recommend this place to anyone at this point.

We had a pleasant experience with our first visit. Our little one year old black kitty required surgery. They handled everything well and we will def be using them for both our cats in the future. I recommend 🙂

After hurricane Ian this place got Destroyed, I mean no walls up inside or anything. On one side they are still open which is very nice because they are helping animals in need. On the other hand I believe they are not acting correctly when it comes charging a person to have a “private euthanasia” with everyone all in the same room watching you and there is absolutely no privacy. I believe it’s already wrong to charge a individual to hold their beloved animal seconds before their death and on top of that claim it as “private” by all means it was not and I feel this was very wrong and not sincere… Also when coming there I spoke to the veterinarian on the options I had for my pet and his approach was very cold and not caring or not willing to be compliant at all with my situation.
