How to Save Money at BluePearl Pet 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.

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.

They handled my dogs torn cruciate well! Dr Cramer explained everything they were going to do with Nala, they took good care of her! It’s expensive only thing I wish was for more updates I had to keep texting to ask what’s happening. Staff was really great and they cared for her!

The Staff I dealt with both on the phone at the Maitland location for appointment scheduling, as well as at the East Orlando location in person, were amazing to deal with and so personable and made a stressful time more manageable. Dr. McGovern was amazing and actually took the time to listen to my concerns and me babble from being stressed for my dog and offered comfort and assurance when I needed it most. She is extremely knowledgeable and I am grateful to now have her as a doctor for my dog when she needs specialty care. We are still working my fur child through some issues but I have faith that the train will reach the final station of healing soon!

If there was a rating less than 1 star I would give it to this place. They are truly money hungry... Our baby had a nose bleed. Very apparent the goal is to drive up the cost of the visit with hopes of overnight stay, this 2500.00 to 3000.00 for the visit. Labs run, wait..... come back, review with recommendations to stay overnight because they want to put in an IV.... (Dog not dehydrated) The words were, we might need to start her on a IV. No reason why, other than this is what she might need. I envisioned if we would let them, I could see a call later that night saying she took a turn for the worst... had to do this or that and the bill would have ended up 5k or higher. Took the dog to another ER two days later and got labs, X-RAYS, nostril cleaning and mouth exam, but a COMPLETE explanation of the possibilities. Regular vet called as she was under and getting treatment. She was unavailable previously, but after verbally explaining the circumstances and issues to her, so walked back inside the ER as the doctor wanted to see us to explain the findings. Identical to regular vet (Regular vet old school and Extremely knowledgeable). Our regular vet called us the next morning after getting labs, and X-ray exams reports and confirmed our baby will be fine and no need for her to see her based on everything provided to her. Her regular vet indicated she will be fine. The major problem with this place is they are a hospital puppy mill so to speak... drive up the cost at any cost to get the highest cost. I will say based on the general lab findings they KNEW there was an infection. Provided a shot but no meds to take home for the infection. Pain shot but no pain meds to go home. Only blood clotting meds Funny how they came to get me fast when they needed to put a cone on her because she was spayed the week before and started licking at her surgery site. She started growling at them. (She didn't like them either) Rottweilers have a keen sense of people. Did I mention bleeding continued after we were home so called back to let them know and their comment was to bring her back and they would try to stop the bleeding however they close in 30 minutes. My opinion, not enough time to drive up the cost. Finally, do not use this place unless you want to spend big money and don't want anything answers.

Our pup had melanoma on her lip that was not completely removed. We consulted an oncologist who did not recommend any more treatment other than to finish the removal. A wedge resection was done to completely remove the remaining cancer.
