How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Eastside Animal Hospital
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
Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

Been taking all my animals to Dr. Bowers Eastside Animal Hospital since early 90's. The Dr. and his staff are exceptional people. They're very acknowledable, caring, and just all over wonderful people inside & out. They treat every animal that goes there like it is their own. Highly recommend them. Clean environment, reasonable prices, and great hours. Five stars is not enough to rate this facility. Giving them 10 out of 10.. Thanks for all you guys do for my pets.. ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

The employees at this Vet are the best I have dealt with, they always get us in no matter what. And having 10 stray cats, all from the same lineage, there has been MANY vet appts. most emergencies. Brought one of my girls in who had a baseball size lump on hip, woke up next day, and it looked like her whole side exploded and took her in, she ended up having to have surgery, have skin removed, wound cleaned out, and she was stapled up and came home within a few hours. I have been to so many vets in Lee County, from my 14 1/2 yr old Maltese, has been gone for 2 yrs now, another dog in the house, gone a year, and going thru 28 kittens all in the same lineage during COVID, was insane, we have spent thousands over the last 5 years to vet, feed, treat, and love these 10 cats (oh, and big baby Daddy, the real feral stray who now likes me, and needs his balls cut off). We didn't ask for this, but we have done the best we can. This Vet and staff have been so kind to us. I am Thankful that I found them.
