How to Save Money at Village 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.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting 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.

After trying 3x at 2 different vets, I tried yet again at VAC. My 11 month old frenchie was terrified due to handling at the previous vets. I braced myself for the worst but I knew he needed to be on a healthy path. So, the doctor and techs were great! They answered all my questions and actually listened to my concerns. They took the time to be patient and compassionate while doing what needed to be done. We all worked on a less stressful strategy and it worked. Drawing blood and shots?!?! Thank you VAC for making this mom and pup (more me, lol) at ease!

I have been going to village animal clinic since 2019. The whole staff is absolutely wonderful! Dr Wilson is a very caring and compassionate veterinarian, and I recommend her highly! My 8-year-old cat Missy had developed cancer and Dr Wilson treated her for 2 years. My husband and I adopted two wonderful cats one of which recently got sick. My husband passed away shortly after we adopted them both. Dr Wilson not only made my Sable feel better, but she was also there to lend a sympathetic ear. I don't just think of her as an A1 vet, but also my friend! Thanks to all of you at village animal clinic! You really make a difference!

I've used the services of VAC for about 20 years. They've had my animal family's back through good times and bad. Dr. Prior is the best - caring and very skilled. The support staff is wonderful. I've never had a bad experience with this office and highly recommend them to anyone wanting a caring place for their fur babies.
