How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Veterinary Medical Center
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.

Our dog had a broken tooth yesterday. It’s memorial weekend so only a few vet offices are open. We are so lucky to find this place. Dr. Joe is very knowledgeable and experienced. All the staff here are super friendly. We will definitely come back for other checks. It’s the best vet visit we have ever had. Highly recommend!

I am so happy with the services I received from this animal hospital. Dr Ferguson has treated my dogs Lucy and Bizzy, and also my kitty Oliver. I boarded Ollie for a long time, and all the staff members were so kind and so sweet to not only my pet, but myself included. It is also nice that my kitty Ollie has no trauma from being boarded for months on end. My kitty is happy to be home, and is as loving as he was before boarding. That itself is a testament to the wonderful treatment he received while in the care of this veterinary clinic. I can’t write enough good things about the staff or the veterinarians. Thank you so much for treating Ollie with love, care and more importantly, understanding. I know kitties are hard, especially kitties who are grouchy, and I truly appreciate the time you took to make Ollie comfortable and the temporary housing you provided was impeccable.

We had a really great first experience with Veterinary Medical Center! The front desk staff were all nice and got us back to a room really quickly. We had our two dogs and our cat there so not having to wait in the waiting room was really helpful for us. Our tech Celeste was very friendly and our cat (who is not keen on the vet) loved her! Dr. Cook was very thorough on all three of their physical exams and answered all of our questions. The pricing was much better than the last vet we visited which was an added bonus. Really happy we found such a great places for all of our baby girls!

This was our first visit. We had to put our beloved 14 year old dog down. They bent over backwards to get us in on a busy Sunday. I can’t say enough good things about VMC. The doctor and staff were caring to us and to our dog, explaining everything thoroughly. After Dr. Joe gave the injection and Payton was gone, he asked us what she was like. It would have been easy for that practice to sock it to us financially. They did not. I have a long standing relationship with my regular vet, and she’s also a good friend. However, VMC is my new go to vet for weekend emergencies. I enthusiastically recommend this practice.

After calling on a Friday morning my vet's office for the past 15 years and them telling me they only have an appointment for my cat who is in serve pain and distress on a Tuesday! I reached out to friends and started calling their vets. The only one who agreed to see us right away was Veterinary Medical Center. They could not have been more compassionate and professional. Their treatment was above and beyond! Needless to say, I have left my previous vet and moved here with all three cats.
