How to Save on Veterinary Costs at South Maui Animal Clinic

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

I can’t thank enough to Dr. McCurdy and his staff, they are wonderful team. I had my 2 bunnies (Bunbun & Basil) neutered last month. They were taking good care of my buns from the start to finished. Now bunnies completely healed from the neuter, can’t wait to bond them. Thank you so much Dr. McCurdy and nurses

Dr McCurdy is such an wonderful person and veterinarian. We have far to many visits unfortunately with our two dogs on Maui for various accidents and surgeries. We have worked with 3 other veterinarian offices on island and we are so happy to have found the only place to bring our "kids". Highly recommend Dr McCurdy!

Buyer Beware! EXPENSIVE VET BILLS! First time we took a pet here. It was an extremely stressful situation and the staff made it such a horrible experience. They failed to diagnose and charged hundreds. A less then 5 minutes exam for 1 pet the bill was $83.34: * Biohazard Fee $6.51 - an unknow markup - don't even know why we are charged this * Examination Wellness Bundle $76.83 (the bundle including: examination; wellness $67.33 & Clinical support $9.50) - The vet were in the room for less than 5 mins. the charge makes the Vet's hourly rate to more the $800/hr! - plus another unknown Markups of clinical support? The markup of the Rx is 250% of very basic medication such as antibiotic. the exact same Rx med you can order from 1800 Petmeds for $2/each, they marked up to $5/each. They would not refill the Rx medication via the phone, they made us must take the pets in again for checkup to pay the $76.83 exam bundle before they would issue refills, with 250% markup! They are way overpriced & took advantage of Pet owners. Sad.....
