How to Save Money at Copper Point Veterinary 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.

Working in the pet industry professionally makes it hard to find people you trust with your own pets. My first visit I brought my Standard Poodle with an ear infection who is very nervous of new people. Dr. Privette was extremely patient and kind and because of that she was eventually pretty comfortable with him. After that I brought my Australian Shepherd because she stopped eating. It ended up being leukemia and sadly we lost her a couple weeks ago. Through the whole process Dr. Privette was so understanding and helpful. I called many times with questions and concerns and was always called back the same day. She was my first dog I got as an adult and she was with me for 10 years. They always treated us with kindness and understanding up until the end. Since moving here to open my grooming business four years ago I have tried many vets in the area and have been unimpressed with all of them. I finally found a vet I can trust with my own pets. Im so happy to have found Copper Point and will definitely be recommending my clients and staff to bring their pets here.

I take my GSD Luna and my Doberman Kira to Dr Privette. He is very good with my girls. He's been very patient with Luna and her anxiety issues and helped my Kira after she got a serious infection. The staff have all been very kind, professional and they're great with my girls! They always work hard to try and get me an appointment as soon as possible. I highly recommend Copper Point Veterinary Hospital!

I’ve been going to see Dr. Privette for over 15 years, since I first moved to Orlando. He’s taken great, careful care of my three dogs over the years, from routine care to early arthritis, a torn knee ligament, cancer, and allergies, to name a few. Brynne can’t wait to see him as he always has treats to reward her for being a good patient. When our dogs’ needs have required special care, Dr. Privette talked with us honestly about our options and communicated with different specialists to continue their care. And I say “us” because he even showed great patience with my often difficult to deal with ex-husband (five stars just for that!) Jokes aside, there’s no vet I’d recommend more!

Dr. Privette is an amazing veterinarian with such a heart for the health and well-being of all animals. He is abundantly knowledgeable and makes sure pet owners and pets go home happy and well informed. Over the Christmas holiday, my dogs ear blew up like a balloon with an ear hematoma. Not knowing what to do, I called a friend of mine who works for Dr. Privette. She immediately got in touch with Dr. Privette and he and his staff were able to bring my baby some relief through the holidays and scheduled her for surgery first thing Monday morning. Dr. Privette and his wonderful vet techs Jessica and Carrie took great care of my sweet baby before, during, and after surgery. My puppers is on her way to a full recovery and our hearts are full knowing we have found a vet that deeply cares about our animals. Thank you Copper Point Veterinarians for taking care of our little family. We truly appreciate you.

We are new pet parents to this vet office. We were clients of Winter Springs Veterinary clinic for the past 14 yrs. Unfortunately our vet Dr. Chris Sims retired. He suggested this vet to us. I must say it was a positive experience for us 💁‍♂️💁‍♀️ and our boy Charlie Brown. 🐶 The vet and staff 👨‍⚕️👩‍⚕️ were very friendly and helpful with answering our questions. I would refer them to anyone looking for a vet office they are very professional and caring.
