How to Save Money at Scottsdale Animal Clinic
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.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting 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.

I came in with my new 6 week old kitten after being turned away by 4 other vets near the area. He was not eating and throwing up, and they made time to see him even though they had no available appointments for the day. Everyone was super helpful trying to help find out what was wrong with him. Dr. Greeley took her time to check him without stressing him out since he was already in a delicate state and she got him the medications he needed and a supplement to help get him fed while he had no interested in food. They set up a follow up for him just 3 days later to check that he was doing better (which he was thankfully!) It was truly the best experience I've ever had at a vet and I will definitely be going back with the rest of my babies. In addition to how well they took care of my little guy, they are also super affordable!

Dr. Shannon is the most compassionate vet I’ve ever seen. I wouldn’t bring my dogs anywhere else. Her staff is fast and efficient and Dr. Shannon is always spot on with her diagnosis’s and treatment plan.

Nothing less than 100% of Love and Professionalism from each and every person at Scottsdale Animal Clinic. Couldn’t be more satisfied and grateful for the compassion and care given to Kenzie and myself, every single time we interact with this beautiful Family of Animal Loving Angels on Earth. Without even giving our names, even if only to pop in the office to ask a question, Amy knows Kenzie and I and everything about Kenzie. Amy is amazing, thoughtful, kind, a fountain of helpful information, and ALWAYS goes far beyond for us and I’m sure for all Dr Greeley’s patients. Thank You to Dr Greeley, Amy, and all SAC staff for all you do, including the nice gentleman who keeps SAC clean. You and all you do are seen and appreciated. I hope each and every one of you are told how much Kenzie and I appreciate all of you! See you again soon 💖 🐾🐶🐾 💖
