How to Save Money at ACC of Randall Pointe

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.

Getting 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.

My 13 year old needed surgery ASAP, I called and the staff was super knowledgeable as to what my pups needed and was able to book surgery the same day. Not only that but they went the extra mile to call the next day to follow up and make sure my pups was responding well to medication and surgery. They truly made us feel comfortable leaving our pup in great hands!

Highly recommend ACC to anyone! We moved 40 minutes away after using them for years and will continue to make the drive for all appointments because there’s no one else I trust more. They’re great with all our dogs but especially our third dog who is fear aggressive. Since the first time we brought her in they took our lead on how to make her visits as stress free as possible for everyone and each visit since then they continue to check in and see where she’s at. Recently they’ve helped us through some very difficult diagnosis’ and truly care about us and our dogs. We’ve only ever had great experiences!

Dr Courtney was amazing with our 2 yr old English Bulldog. Two other vets wouldn't even trim his nails w/o sedation. She took her time and let us handle him while he got his shots & ears cleaned. Others always wanted to take him to "the back room". She just saw him as a sweet boy who gets a little "grumpy" when messed with. We will definitely be back.

I have brought several of my dogs in and have always had excellent service. I absolutely love Dr. Marissa and the way she treats my animals. She is always honest even in the tough situations and that brings peace of mind. The staff as a whole is kind and caring and very attentive.

For context, we've been seeing ACC for our two dogs since 2020. Really liked this vet initially (and still do think the doctors here are great), but over time, I have been disappointed with the services. Recently, ACC lost a stool sample for our dogs worm test, which we understood, but then our dog wasn't feeling well, so we brought him in for a checkup. It has been really expensive, and I had very long wait times trying to talk to staff, and after his last liver test, confusing communication overall. We asked a tech why his two hour test took four hours and she told my husband they got busy even though I called periodically to check when we could pick our dog up and they kept giving us a window of time and then never called. I also asked for my dog's test records at the front desk, and we were directed to the PetDesk app, but there was no information for his results. I think the good intentions are there, but the miscommunication from the staff makes it very stressful. Please do not tell your clients a doctor will call that day if there is a chance they will not because we ended up waiting for the call all day. Please do not direct people to an app for medical information if you're unfamiliar with the contents of the app. Please choose your words carefully when speaking to your clients about the pets they care dearly for. I've been so worried for my dog, and this interaction with the staff has not made any of this easy. Again, the doctors have been great, but I think the clinic may just be too busy at times and cause confusion with communication.
