How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Carey 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
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.

Had to put my beloved baby Greta to sleep today. I am grateful to the staff for their compassion. And thank you Dr. Michelle for being so kind and considerate, making this very sad event a little easier.

I've been bringing my dog to Carey Animal Clinic for a couple years now and they have been wonderful! My dog is a very anxious/fear aggressive dog that isn't always easy to deal with but they always take care of him. They even help accommodate his needs to make it easier for me and him. I always have been nervous bringing my pup places since he can be a handful but I trust them 100%! Very grateful to have found them!!

I was a longtime client of this clinic and for a while was happy with everything. This had been my family's vet as well, so we had many pets that had gone here. But in the past couple of years, I feel like everything is a battle here. I went in back in December for a large lump on my dog's leg, which first was misdiagnosed, then after I insisted on my own that it be tested, I was told it needed to come off as soon as possible, and now here I am 2 months later, they overbooked my first appointment and pushed me out, rescheduled me twice, and now I was told they don't know if they'll be able to provide me with an estimated date at all. My patience has worn thin.

This clinic is awful. I took my dog to them twice for a lump on her leg and they couldn't figure it out. They gave me steroids which didn't help and the second time they confused her with another patient. Told me at the end, and said I would have to just come back for the doctor to look at her again cause he didn't have time. I will never come back here. Please be weary of all the good reviews. Oh the problem on her leg was just a wart, by the way. We cleared it up right away with some wart remover.
