How to Save Money at Nassau Veterinary Specialists

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.

We recently brought our cat to Nassau Veterinary Specialists for a procedure, and the entire experience was exceptional from start to finish. The staff was incredibly kind, patient, and reassuring — exactly what you hope for when trusting someone with your pet’s care. Everyone we interacted with was professional yet warm, making sure we understood each step of the process and that our cat was comfortable and well-looked-after. The level of efficiency and organization was impressive, but what truly stood out was the compassion they showed. It’s clear that they genuinely care about both the animals and the people who love them. We also appreciated that they accept Trupanion pet insurance, which made the process even smoother and less stressful. We are grateful for the excellent care our cat received and would wholeheartedly recommend Nassau Veterinary Specialists to anyone who wants their pet treated with skill, respect, and genuine kindness.

Dr. Walker and staff are nothing short of amazing. From the moment we booked our consult, we felt welcomed & cared for. Our sweet boy was taken care of until his last breath. The entire team at Nassau Vet Specialists did everything they could for us each visit. We will be forever patients if we need the special services of this clinic again. Top notch customer service & communication, and we couldn’t be more thankful for the steps they took to find us answers for our fur baby.
