How to Save Money at Floral City Animal Clinic

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.

We have been taking our three dogs here for years now. They have always taken great care of them. We recently had to say good bye to our 18 year old Chihuahua unfortunately. The staff was amazing and compassionate. I highly recommend FCAC

THIS IS THE BEST PLACE TO TAKE YOUR FUR BABIES! Absolutely the cleanest and friendliest place my "Furr Son" has ever visited. We had a slight emergency, and called first. We were welcomed, even with my baby boys attitude issues. This was truly his best Vet visit ever. I rescued him at 6 months.He is now almost 7 years old. He was horribly mistreated which has caused permanent physical damage to parts of his body and a fear of humans. The staff was so amazing. They made sure his needs were taken care of before taking him back for urgent minor surgery. The Veterinarian and her assistant/tech introduced themselves to him multiple times, and when it became his turn, he hesitantly went back, but remained a gentleman. After his procedure, he was brought back to our private room until he woke. The Veterinarian and her assistant/tech were so kind and professional. They made sure I knew he was safe and loved throughout the entire visit. The assistant/tech described how they stroked him and talked to him as they sedated him so he wouldn't worry. The Veterinarian came in and explained the complete procedure and after care, then told me he was a good patient, that he should wake within 10 minutes or so. The assistant/tech came in from time to time to check on him, and told me about his after care, and his medication. I absolutely love this office and staff! They gave the very best care to my baby boy and to me. I highly recommend these amazingly wonderful women ,both at the lobby counter, and in the medical exam and surgical rooms! 4/13/23 Thank you DR TOTO for taking such good care of my big baby boy Greigh. Today ❤️

Dr. Toto is an amazing vet! She was so kind and gentle with my little Henry, and gave me different options for treatment, but let me know we could try one at a time so I wouldn't have to spend a fortune. I'm so glad I found her!!
