How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Ulm 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.

I was able to quickly schedule an appointment for my new dog. Everyone was friendly. The doctor answered all my questions. Everything was clean and welcoming.

This office is ran quite interesting to say the least! I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND FOR YOUR PETS! If things are perfectly aligned& you only need “check ups”or“positive visits”this office seems to be accepting of their patients& pets! The moment ur pet is NEEDING MORE CONCERNING/LIFE THREATENING CARE the office DOESN'T deliver! They become dismissive& short, DONT preform the correct testing or any extensive care. They show 0 compassion& TRUST in a time when you& ur pet need them most.This is why we have vets, to help us in times of need! To care about our pets as much as we do, express care& bring comfort! To do everything possible to care for that pet& be HONEST with Owners! They DONT do care in the room with YOUR pet, you dont know what care they are or arnt providing but ur paying for! Dr is nice to ur face but is evident she is dismissive/judging& clearly has a extremely difficult time caring for sick animals in higher need or dying! She will NOT tell you your pet is dying (stated from multiple people) Instead of the CARE of our pets the dr & staff DONT show extra concerns/comfort measures for ur pet when needed. In ur time of need& hurt staff are quite ruthless, rude, judgy, dismissive &cocky with every comment🙄heaven for bid you have concerns or want to hear from the Dr herself. That oh so TRUSTING staff you HAVE to tell your pets needs to first before even getting to talk(if you do)with the dr! That treatment really makes me wanna talk to the staff instead of the dr. (specifically/especially the red head girl) Icing on the cake, this is the ONLY vet heard of& has enough nerve& disrespect to“FIRE”(yup you heard right😂)FIRE their pets& owners🤔If this doesnt scream the Dr is💲just fine 😂💸 EXPENSIVE! Taking full advantage of being the only vet in town! How compassionate is that! When questioning “fired”was explained very unprofessionally& dismissive as I didnt deserve to be informed of &unaware it occurred🤔Typically the client“fires”the business & usually vets are happy to see returning & new pets! When requesting to talk with the manager/dr they refuse & do NOT return phone calls!😂wonder why!? When your pet does die & you still have all the money hungry supplies (they knew I would not use & just didn’t tell me & instead took even more money🙄) don’t worry they will offer you a “CREDIT” 😂even when it’s now showing FIRED🤔how do I use my credit then?!? Especially when not informed of being “fired”but still quick to credit me! What about when you don’t have other pets! Cuz that’s useful huh! Staff also opens some supplies in office for you..don’t worry they refuse to let you return them even though you purchased them only hours before & did not ask them to open & are useless to you! 👏🏼Job well done! 😂 Way to be the only known vet who has 0 problems charging for visit after visits when things just arnt quite right with a pet knowing that the pet is dying. & not only, NOT offering or do the PROPER care (fluids in office for 3 days, sonograms for observation of the insides, proper food in a distressed dying pet knowing food was making him worse, hydration, the list continues) but is not TRUSTING & HONEST for their own services(but claiming that on the owner😂guilty much)! Pretending the pet was not passing & not provide sick pet care! & most definitely DID NOT in any way, shape or form even hint or be honest & tell the owner the pet was dying & absolutely would not get better! Instead provided false hope, more discomfort for the pet with multiple needle sticks & forcing food (being told that is what would make the pet better) & lots of broken hearts not prepared for the inevitable! Now this is DISHONEST! Maybe you should rethink your ways of dealing with passing pets & proper care & be able to be HONEST with owners! & don’t even get me started on the “fired” insanity you have in place towards innocent pets! All for going to a HOSPITAL VET PER YOUR FAILURE TO PROPERLY CARE! My dog matters more than you! Get over yourselves!🙄✌🏼it’s ok, I will recommend Whitney hospital to anyone reading this!

Dr. Ulm and her staff are all amazing and very knowledgeable. They definitely take the time to get to know your fur babies and never make you feel rushed when you are in there. They truly make your pet feel comfortable during their appointment which makes it easier to come back each time, especially for my Golden! Words can’t describe how much we love Ulm Veterinary Clinic!
