How to Save Money at Animal Wellness Center

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 cannot speak more highly of this office from the wonderful receptionist Jeanie to the amazing staff and dr. Simmons in the back. We just moved from NC and I was very worried to take my boxer in to see someone new due to his fear aggression. Both Collin and dr Simmons took the time and patience to make my baby feel calm. I was so very pleased with our treatment and will forever be thankful we have found a new vet home.

Otis (our Frenchie) loves this place. He's always treated well and the staff loves him. Thank you for taking care of him.

Unfortunately had to leave this vet due to rude workers but more importantly the vet misdiagnosed eye problems. Our 1 year old cat had a spot in her eye that was discolored. Dr Simmons gave her eye drops and said to come back in 2 weeks. On return visit no change and he said stop eye drops she’s all good. We weren’t convinced since nothing had changed. So we took her to an ophthalmologist. She had very high eye pressure which require specific drops to bring down the pressure or she’ll get glaucoma and could go blind. The eye spot needs to be monitored to make sure it doesn’t turn into cancer. So glad she’s getting good care now and glad that we left this practice.

Dr. Simmons has treated all of our dogs, and now our cat, with compassion and excellent veterinary care for close to 15 years. I would recommend anyone establish care with Animal Wellness Center if you have a dog or cat.

Dr. Simmons has done a great job with our dogs and they are not trying to escape the vets office like they typically do at other vets they have seen and are very relaxed here. Definitely wish that we were not moving out of the area in a few months( 5 months ) Since they like the staff here and they are big flirts.
