How to Save Money at Embassy Lakes 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 have been taking my senior dog to Embassy Lakes Animal Hosp for years. I feel fortunate to have found this place. Dr. Levin is kind, compassionate, skilled and has a more conservative, “do no harm” approach that has served my pup very well. The entire staff is friendly and helpful. I wouldn’t think about using any other primary care vet. Dr. Levin is a gem, I fully trust him with my precious Hunter. I’d recommend Dr. Levin/Embassy Lakes a thousand times over, without hesitation.

I have been taking all my furry babies to Dr. Levin for the past 8 years. He has always been so great with my animals to the point he will sit on the floor with them to make them feel comfortable, especially my 130 pound mix. Recently I have been able to have Dr. Seraydar take care of my crew too. She too, goes beyond the call to make my crew feel safe to the point that she walked out to the car with my big guy to make him feel at ease. The entire staff is fantastic. Ali is always very happy and friendly which is very welcoming, Trish goes beyond to help out in anyway she can to make the visit easier and Cortney and Jen are perfect and kind with the animals and me. I used to live in Cooper City and had to move to Miami, I am so happy with the care they all give my furry babies that I travel sometimes up to an hour drive to continue with their services. They are fair, honest and give you all the options so that you as the owner can make the right decision for your animal. I have never felt pressured. I highly recommend Embassy Lakes. I have my own personal animals and I have a rescue so I have a multitude of animals at different times, they take care of all of them.

My first dealings with Embassy Lakes Animal Hospital was a sad day for our family. We said goodbye to our beloved Cosmo, who, after 18 wonderful years crossed the Rainbow Bridge. We had been in touch with a different vet in Cooper City and things just weren't feeling right with them. This OTHER vet (I won't name names) was bringing in a whole bunch of charges...one charge for the euthanasia, an additional charge to actually be in the room with the pet (are you kidding?). We walked out of there and came straight to Embassy Lakes. They made the process so simple and it was a fair price. They were all very loving. They had never seen us before but they treated our pet like it was their own. They made a very nice accommodation for us since it was late notice to them on our part.The procedure was dignified and painless for my cat. This happened in July and now our family has adopted two little rescue kittens (our first pets since losing Cosmo) and we'll be bringing them in as soon as we get them from the agency. I know it's been over 6 months late with this review, but the community should know how wonderful they are at Embassy Lakes Animal Hospital and we look forward to bringing our new additions as soon as we get them. (Picture is a Cosmo...rest in peace buddy.)

Dr. Levin and his staff are phenomenal! The office is clean and the prices are reasonable. He’s friendly and courteous taking the necessary time to explain what will be done during each visit. He thoroughly answers any questions or concerns you may have. I highly recommend Embassy Lakes Animal Hospital.
