How to Save on Veterinary Costs at TrueBalance Veterinary Acupuncture
Preventive care
Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.
Compare prescription pricing
Some pet medications prescribed at veterinary clinics may also be available through local or online pharmacies. It can be helpful to compare pricing when appropriate to reduce ongoing medication costs.
Consider pet insurance
Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

We have such gratitude for Dr. Maria Patino of True Balance who has treated our sweet Wheaten Terrier Cassidy for over two years. We started with Dr. P. when Cassidy was 14 y.o. BEFORE she had any serious health issues. Cass did have allergies and some arthritis at that time. With daily supplements and regular acupuncture Dr. Patino managed and alleviated her symptoms giving Cassidy an amazing quality of life as she aged. Dr. P gave us exercises to strengthen Cassidy’s legs and taught us how to massage her body to keep her feeling well. As time progressed, so did Cassidy’s medical issues. Dr. Patino treated Cassidy’s incontinence with acupuncture and supplements and we saw immediate results. Dr. Patino is not just a true professional who lets you know when she will arrive at your home for the appointment and follows up to see how your pet is doing, she deeply loves animals and finds great joy in helping/healing them. She has a vast array of traditional and natural veterinary knowledge. Dr. María Patino has been an amazing blessing to Cassidy and our family. I cannot recommend her enough as a professional and a human! I also suggest if you’re thinking about using her services don’t wait, get started on the road to health and healing for your fur-baby with Dr. Maria Patino.

Incredible experience, my kitten had an accident making him paralyzed. We were told to put him down by another Vet but we wanted a second opinion and we found TrueBalance Vet Acupuncture, after just one session we saw hope in our kittens recovery. It took only 4 sessions and now he is running around, jumping, and has a full life ahead of him. We fully believe in this treatment now and l appreciate the kindness and hope Dr. Patino brought to us. 100% recommend!

Maria is amazing. My 6 year old Great Dane loves her - I can absolutely see a difference in his hair and comfort. And - sooner rather than later for your fur baby - irs easier to maintain and improve than try to fix something when it’s already bad.

Dr. Patino is the most knowledgeable and caring vet in Miami. I took my baby girl Gisoo to nearly 10 different vets in South Florida and none of them were as compassionate as Dr. Patino. She had the heart and curiosity to take on a complicated case and was willing to drive 3+ hours in traffic to treat her. After just 1 session she was able to get her nystagmus to stop. She is very invested in her patients and cares more about the quality of time she has with her patients as opposed to the quantity of patients she sees in a day.

We love Dr. Patino. She's passionate and truly cares for her fur patients. My Chippy Boy was in need of therapy and thank God I came across her. She's God sent to help my boy. Over four years now!
