How to Save Money at Inland Northwest Veterinary Specialty Care

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.

We had a great experience ! Our pup had been suffering with an lung infection. The staff got her in quickly and did a through diagnostic testing to treat and get her healed. Follow-up was also timely.Highly recommend Dr.Ginman.

My boy Darby was diagnosed last November with severe IBD and PLE. Although this disease is not curable, Darby is now considered stable, and his disease is manageable. Dr Ginman and his staff have been so supportive and understanding. Appointments are easy to get, and they are always on time.

Our 1 year old American Bully was diagnosed with cancer about 6 months ago. Dr. Ginman has been incredible. Our sweet boy just finished his 4th round of chemo and his tumor that was the size of a softball is virtually undetectable. He was proactive in the diagnosis, upfront in the prognosis and realistic that the outlook was not good but treatment is working so far. Great doctor and we love the staff. Thank you for saving (at least prolonging) our boys life!

Dr. Ginman is an outstanding veterinary internist! When our 10 yr old cat Kiiro seemed to not quite feel like himself, with vague symptoms, Dr. Ginman quickly and efficiently figured out, via review of our local vet’s blood tests and doing an ultrasound on the spot (amazing!), that he had intestinal lymphoma. Dr. Ginman explained in detail his condition and what the treatment options were, and worked closely with the WSU vet school to pursue some even more specialized treatment. Unfortunately, Kiiro had an advanced case by the time we even realized he was sick, so he deteriorated rapidly. Dr. Ginman attended to Kiiro at the time of his death (on a Sunday!), and was very sensitive and comforting. Since then, Dr. Ginman has helped us manage another cat’s urinary retention and seizures, and augmented our local vet’s management of our dog’s inflammatory bowel disease. The other nice feature at his facility is that he is co-located with a pet emergency clinic, and so when we have had emergent situations with an animal such as when our cat had his first seizure, I drove far out of my way, past the Spokane pet emergency clinic, knowing the collaboration that his clinic and the emergency clinic have. I was pleased with the emergency care and left our cat there so that Dr. Ginman could evaluate him the next morning, and he completely corroborated what the emergency vet had said. He also explained in depth the condition, and what future steps in evaluation and treatment would be if the seizures continue to occur. We have a local vet nearby our home, but she also respects Dr. Ginman, so any time any of our animals needs specialty care, I will always choose to drive the distance to have them see Dr. Ginman!

We had a 9am appointment that was confirmed over the phone the day before, we arrived to our appointment 10min early to find the place closed. After waiting a week for the appointment we knocked on the door and someone finally answering stating that the whole staff was sick and they were unable to have our appointment. The only answer was to leave our dog and they would get to it when they could. If you can't call us with a cancellation how would I trust you with my pet. The price this quack charges for services they can’t even provide us a call stating they need to reschedule. I would not take a my pet night crawler to this place for a bath.
