How to Save Money at Dr. Amy Huff

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 would give zero stars if possible. My dog endured 8 horrible breathing episodes, diarrhea, vomiting, lethargy, not eating or drinking and her office refused to see him until they could "fit him in" 5 days later. Why then does her website state that she provides, "emergency and urgent care". She has been my dog's regular vet since he was a puppy. I did take my dog to the 1st urgent vet available on the 1st day of his symptoms. During the 5 days that I was waiting for my 3 pm appointment {where they were "fitting him in"}, I called them 3 more times, imploring them to please see him. I was denied. I will say thank you to Mia and to Dr. Lindsay Gallagher who did finally see him on Monday and they were both incredible. Unfortunately, Asher had some negative reactions to 1 of the meds and Monday night, couldn't stand up, was shaking and trembling, and was non-responsive to my voice. I took him back on Tuesday. Unfortunately, I had to deal with Amy Huff. She was HORRIBLE. She kept interrupting me, she had my dogs blood work confused with another dog, she referred to my other dog, I had to inform her, that I only have 1 dog. I asked her why she would not address my concerns that Asher had been prescribed an antibiotic that is not FDA approved for animals. She was visibly upset that I questioned her and she said, and I quote, " I deal with people like you all the time, you all overreact". I could not believe a vet, who is supposed to be a professional would say something like that to a parent of a dog who had all the breathing issues, diarrhea, vomiting, lethargy, trembling, loss of balance and muscle control etc. I have been a certified professional dog trainer for 19 years and I have referred numerous clients to Amy Huff. I rescind those referrals and I caution anyone thinking of going to her to think twice.

This Dr truly cares about the animals and not just the money! They saved my dogs life with an emergency surgery when 2 other vets turned me away with him because I didn't have $1,000 in my pocket at the time! They allowed us to make payments and with the help up many friends in the community our bill was paid in less than 24 hrs 🥰 They had a lower cost for the surgery by more than $100.00. I refer everyone I know to see them with their fur babies ♥️ All the other local vets we spoke to were going to let our dog die 😡

Dr. Huff was unwilling to speak with me before leaving my Golden there for sedation and possible surgery. She was recommended to me highly but she or her staff would not answer a few questions for me. Then she has someone call me the next day to see why I did not leave my dog for procedure and she argued with me for 20 minutes. She was to let Dr. Huff know about our conversation and call back next day. She called next day asking if I want a referral to UF. Dr. Huff still never even spoke to me. So disappointed with the unwillingness of Dr. Huff to help a concerned pet owner feel confident about the procedure and my dog did not get the help she needs. I really wanted Dr. Huff to help my girl, but could not proceed without a few answers. Worst customer care ever.
