How to Save Money at Prompt Vet
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.

Prompt Vet has been amazing with our old pups, Ranger and Flint. Unfortunately, Ranger has struggled with seizures most of her life. Dr. Wolf has given us new med recommendations that have greatly improved her quality of life. When Ranger goes in for visits, Dr. Wolf is extremely accommodating and takes the best care of Ranger who is not a big fan of the vets office. We definitely recommend taking your pets to prompt vet!

Dr. Wolf and her staff are amazing! It's very obvious that they care about what they do. I took my sick dog there because our regular vet didn't have an immediate opening and they referred us to Prompt Vet. They were so compassionate with my sick dog, very informative about what could be the causes of her sickness and possible treatments, and gave me options on how to proceed while also being transparent about the cost of each option. Dr. Wolf even came in on a Saturday to treat my dog and run some tests, which I had chosen to have done for peace of mind. I will definitely be returning to Prompt Vet and recommending them to my friends and family with fur babies.

Dr. Wolf and her staff are great with extremely anxious dogs. My dog has a terrible experience with a vet when she was younger and has been terrified of them (or any clinical setting) ever since. Dr. Wolf and her staff were very patient and accommodating for her and they are the only vets she really lets near here. Not to mention if they are running behind, they do everything they can to make you comfortable while you wait. I highly recommend this office for those who have vet sensitive animals.

Both of my dogs ended up with kennel cough, one right after another. They were so kind, quick, helpful and affordable.
