How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Algonquin 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

Just took my cockatiel here and it was one of the best vet experiences I’ve ever had. Great staff and priced very reasonably, especially for exotics. Very pleased with everything and will be using them going forward

I have been very happy with the care and support my hedgehog and our family has received. Dr Durante, Leslie, and Sarah have been so helpful and knowledgeable. Millie has been struggling with urinating blood and has been treated with 2 rounds of antibiotic. They took great care Millie during her xray today and examination of a bump that was determined to be a cyst. So grateful for this private practice that seems to have a specialty in exotics. Thank you for all this office does!!!!!

A great experience....the staff at Algonquin Animal Clinic made a bad experience for my dog, a not-so-bad experience overall! Everyone was caring, compassionate and very knowledgeable. This vet clinic appears to be one of the only clinics these days, with a vet who talks to the pet parent, answers any questions, and treats the animal in the exam / treatment room. Most clinics have the pet parent go into the exam room, a vet tech comes in to get the dog to take in the back for care, then comes back to summarize the care for the pet parent. Not here at Algonquin.....they really wanted to be sure I knew what was going on and how to care for my dog....who was a dog bite victim. After our visit to Algonquin Animal Clinic, she's doing great!

I recently found Dr. Durante to care for my 13+ year old rabbit. He identified several big problems and found some great ways to address them. She had a UTI which he prescribed for and also arthritis and gingivitis for which he prescribed metacam. Her UTI is gone and she is moving better now...a sign of a reduction in her arthritis pain. He pointed out that her teeth are very short...which is an unusual problem, but it helped to explain why she has been having trouble chewing her hay. I still give her unlimited fresh hay but she also gets pellets and this has helped put some weight back on her, which she really needed. Her age is up there...so I expect her to have some issues, but she is doing better with her daily dose of metacam (it's banana flavored and she LOVES it! It's like a morning treat for her). I had always read that rabbits were not supposed to be bathed, and the initial problem with movement before she began the metacam had resulted in her having a scaling on her leg that was red and painful. He told me how to bathe her and what to use and that I can do that several times per week. Now her leg is fluffy and healed and she is clean and happy. She doesn't mind her butt baths at all, and likes being cleaned up and gently dried. Dr. Durante made a big difference in my old bunny's health and happiness. He is a very good rabbit vet. So glad we found him!
