How to Save Money at VCA Peachtree 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.

VCA Peachtree took care of our dog for over 15 years, including up to the time of her passing. We utilized their veterinary as well as boarding services. The staff providing both services was friendly, skilled, and supportive. Especially during our dog's last years, we appreciated the doctors' recommendations, care, and empathy. I highly recommend this clinic!

I’m not sure how this VCA has any low ratings at all, but my wife Christine and I would give it 6-stars if we could! We have two dogs and have recently been here at least 6 times just in the past few months due to various checkups and emergencies. All of our visits have been nothing but pleasant and personable as every member of the staff, as well as the doctors, are courteous, thorough, and genuinely care about our furry family members! I would like to say thank you to Dr. Gracia, Dr. Thorndyke, Dr. Daugherty, and also to the wonderful staff, April, Brianne, Tori, and Julie for always taking care of Zeus and Howie. We drive 15 min farther than our previous vet just to see this office, as we feel so welcomed on every visit! We really appreciate their service and we highly recommend this VCA for your fur babies!

Had to go for unfortunate circumstances, but my cat and I received the best care and attention. They were so personal, attentive, and caring in a very sad moment. I am thankful that I had their team with me and my cat's final moments. Couldn't have asked for a better team. Will definitely go back for routine care visits.

On Saturday, July 16, I needed a same day vet appointment for my dog who was displaying weird symptoms. Dr. Wolf and her team were phenomenal. She explained everything she was very kind and was very sweet to my dog. The front desk staff was extremely friendly and helpful, and calming when I was extremely stressed about the health of my dog. They’ve even called to check on him the past couple days. What a wonderful practice. They will be my vet going forward. I can’t think them enough or say enough great things about them.

I would not recommend this hospital to anyone. I went in and signed up for the care club with dental. The doctor, dr drake told me that if I signed up for the appointment then they could remove some teeth from my dog if they need to that is free of charge. And then they just sent me a message of the estimate to remove teeth and some other stuff thats $700 dollars. Also when I got the blood work done, the doctor said that they need to do SDMA test and the lab has enough blood to do that. A few hours later I got a call that I need to bring my dog back in for the appointment and so I Scheduled it. Around 4 pm that same day, I received yet another call saying I can cancel my appointment because they have enough blood. It has been just a total nightmare dealing with this VCA. I strongly recommend not giving this pet hospital your service because they are all confused there.
