How to Save Money at Sixes Animal Hospital

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.

For me, changing veterinarians has always been stressful not only for me but for my three dogs as well. Well Dr. Scott and Lynn changed all that in one visit. Me and my 3 dogs were welcomed like we had been clients for years. I was particularly worried about my small breed ETT. Nico has had limited socialization and is a bit nervous. I had a plan to just carry him into the office and then put him down on the floor, hand the leash to Lynn and walk away so as not to let my nervousness affect him. I was incredibly and pleasantly surprised when Nico came back into the exam room with Lynn. He was calm and confident and content to be in Lynn's arm. There is no greater feeling than knowing that your pets are in good hands! Dr. Scott I found to be thoughtful, professional, open to conversation, receptive to concerns of mine, humble and engaging. I immediately felt at ease upon meeting him as he has a very calm demeanor and genuine love and compassion for his clients 4 and 2 legged (and sometimes 3) . He listened to me and did not talk down to me, rather we had a conversation, and for me that is ALWAYS a good sign. My last vet was amazing but moved on to the Emergency Care Practice and so now my pets are under the care of Dr. Scott and after 40 plus years of owning dogs here in Georgia ( I have met a few vets), I consider myself extremely lucky to have found Dr. Scott and his incredible, professional team.

Dr. Scott came highly recommended by our next door neighbor when our dog suddenly went blind. My dog came to Dr. Scott with sneezing, nasal discharge, sudden blindness, and a high blood pressure. I told Dr. Scott my concerns of a nasal tumor and he refused to properly assess the area. Instead, he attached to the high blood pressure, placed him on 2 BP medications (1 at a human grade), and sent him home. When the vet tech called back to schedule the ultrasound appointment I again addressed my concerns for the nasal tumor and asked for an X-ray of his face and she said she’d let Dr. Scott know. He never ordered the X-ray. My dog went back 2 days after the initial appointment for the US of his kidneys for a possible adrenal tumor. It not only came back clear but I again asked Dr. Scott TWO more times that day to look at his nose because the first time I asked that day, he admitted that he forgot. The second time he claimed to have taken a swab and pulled some of the discharge out but that was it. He never took a sample of the discharge to test it or ordered further testing. Two weeks later my dog started having seizures and eventually passed away peacefully at my dads farm in NC. Ironically enough, the vet tech called within hours the day of his passing to check in on him to which I told her the situation. She began to apologize but stopped herself mid word of “sorry” to rather say she’d let Dr. Scott know. It’s since been almost 2 weeks since that phone call and Dr. Scott never called back. I’m not a veterinarian but I am a doctor and I understood the associated symptoms my dog displayed which aligned with a nasal tumor and Dr. Scott completely neglected my concerns. I also understand that a nasal tumor is aggressive and there is no cure. I want it to be clear that I am not writing this 1-star review because they didn’t save my dog. However, to live the rest of our lives without knowing the truth to our dogs sudden death is something that no dog parent should have to go through. Especially when they put a lot of trust into the doctor taking care of them. Our entire cul de sac in BridgeMill have pets that are seen by Dr. Scott and none of us will ever use their services again! Our sweet boy is greatly missed.

Dr Scott is an amazing vet. My male cat had a urinary blockage. Dr Scott was the best and most reasonable around. Didn't charge extraordinary prices and was thorough about each and every step. This is now.my new vet. Thank you for saving our Eddie.

I have liked everyone I have met at this vet. They were so helpful with my big dog who was not cooperative at all.

We had a dental consultation and dental cleaning for our two dogs. We had a wonderful experience. The scheduling process was easy. Front office staff was very friendly. Dr. Kelley was thorough and communicative. We will definitely be back when our pets need care!
