How to Save Money at Sibley Animal Hospital
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.

It was the longest 61/2 days & 6 nights of my life!! With the miraculous work Dr. Davis performed on my best friend, Sully was released from the hospital today!! He was able to come home livelier & pain free to live out the rest of his life happy as can be & make mine happy!! I truly believe Dr. Davis' hands are guided by the Lord!! The staff is so caring & loving to the pets & treat the clients with the utmost care!! Her whole staff are blessings from God!! Would NEVER take Sully to any other doctor!! Sully really likes her & anyone my dog likes I appreciate!! Thank you for taking such great care of my little buddy!!

One star is for the vet's ability to adequately explain things when specifically requested and the generally pleasant receptionist staff, otherwise my experience here is something I wouldn't recommend to any pet lover. Staff walks into your exam room without introducing themselves or their involvement (I thought the vet tech was the vet the whole 5 min she provided initial assessment) , the clinic apparently lost records I sent to them beforehand on their online new client form and did not inform me they "ran out" of one of the vaccines I scheduled the appointment for in the first place saying it's on back order nationally. I called a vet clinic in Hammond and thankfully they have the vaccine my dog needs in stock and will give it to him in 2 weeks. I will not be returning to this clinic and have advised friends and family to avoid. I'm disappointed I won't be able to continue to support this local business due to their lack of professionalism. The vet did say she sends information after the appointment because she is too busy to explain things (positive Lyme test) during clinic. If she is so busy I'm certain the clinic can afford a much needed cosmetic upgrade.
