How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Mountain View Veterinary 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

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.

They took good care of my parents dog, who we unfortunately just had to put down recently and they recommended I take my dog there as well. I didn’t know what was going on but I knew my dog Sweetie had something wrong with her skin.Took Sweetie there yesterday for the possible skin problem and she was so well taken care of. I called and the receptionist was so nice to let her get in on the same day, I was so thankful. Highly Recommend!

Our small dog has had multiple visits here. She has been seen for surgeries, skin issues and just to update vaccines and services. She is treated with love and patients everytime. This last time she had her yearly dental, and hygiene services. Test were done for a condition and medication for a skin issue. I trust them with one of the most import things in my life. We try to get as many things done in one day (especially when she is under anesthetic ☺) I love how staff and doctors communicate with us through every apointment and help us plan her whole visit! It's a smooth happy process for us!

I absolutely love Mountain View Vet. They are pricier than I am used to where I came from (comparable to others in area though); but, every person we have been in contact there has been amazing to us and our animals. I was so thoroughly impressed with how the vet and tech took special care of my dogs just doing a wellness check. Giving them treats and talking to them like I do (sweetly and like they are humans even though we all know they are not). :) Each of my dogs has now had a problem that we needed the vet for and again, kindness and gentleness and fairness and understanding. I will not go anywhere else. We lucked out on our first try of a vet in this area.

If searching for a new veterinarian, I'd highly recommend Dr Rider. We had a local vet, but our 17 yr old Pekingese Pug was declining in health and our veterinarian office was closed due to staff meetings all day. So, I Googled other vets in the area and decided to call Moubtain View. I explained my situation with my elderly dog and the receptionist was the sweetest. She did not know if the Dr could see BettySue as the Dr was leaving soon, but she placed me on hold and informed Dr. Rider of my situation, and she agreed to see our elderly dog. I drove over immediately and was greeted with kindness and empathy by the receptionist. (Thank you from the bottom of my heart) We were shown to an examination room and I met Dr Rider. She is such a caring, considerate, gentle and kind woman. Dr. Rider explained the process when sending a beloved doggy to heaven. Her assistant was so sweet and gentle with BettySue. This is one of the hardest appointments to make and honestly, I'm still teary writing this, however, the entire staff's love for animals helped me through it. Yesterday a card was delivered to my mailbox from Dr. Rider. Never, in my 55 years, has a vet reached out to me, nor anyone else that I know, after such a heartbreaking appointment. So, if you're undecided who to bring your fur baby to, consider Dr. Rider and her staff. They are spectacular. Thank you so very much, Dr. You are spectacular. Hugs.
