How to Save Money at Dunwoody Animal Medical 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.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting 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.

My dog had a sprained paw and when you see your dog limping you immediately want to know what’s going on. everybody was so nice and caring so im super grateful that they were able to squeeze us in. Thank you to Dr.H and Izzy who treated my dog with great care in the exam room and gave us peace of mind that everything was okay; super happy and thankful with their customer service & that they didn’t turn us away (:

Dr. Johnson and staff are very professional, compassionate and caring (to pets & owners). We have been with DAMC for 5 years now and have always had great care. My shepherd was operated not long ago and they called me throughout to update me. The care was & is of highest quality. I have full confidence when I drop her off. I recommend this vet team without hesitation!

This place seems very caring. Walking to get lunch and noticed this hawk standing on the sidewalk. He seemed stunned and didn’t move by the time I was walking back home. Called the closest vets office just to see if they had a number for a local bird rescue. They came out right away and took the little guy back to their office without fuss. Definitely will use them in the near future when we get a dog.

This place truly cares for your pet. I’m a pet sitter and had to bring in a pup while the family was away. The staff did a great job and truly cared about the pup I brought in. The vet was was willing to discuss the pup’s condition with the pet owner WAY beyond closing time. The vet’s job doesn’t end when the clinic closes. The pet owner got a phone call later that night from the vet to discuss the pups condition. Safe to say, they go above and beyond here.

Dr. Johnson is great! Our dog loves him. The staff is super friendly and professional. They also keep us up to date with regards vaccines or anything that our dog needs.
