How to Save Money at Beaumont Animal Clinic

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.

I am so thankful for Dr Beaumont and his entire staff for taking such good care of Abby. Had to drop her off early Friday which I appreciated the early drop of so I could get to work. She had to have a procedure done and I was beyond worried but they updated me through out the entire thing and made me feel more at ease about everything. Abby is doing so much better and feels better. I can’t thank them enough for taking care of my baby. We’ve been coming here for the last 5 years with her and there’s no other vet we will go too. Thank you so much again.

Everything was great. My Lucy was miserable with allergies and was constantly scratching and chewing herself. Dr. gave Lucy a complete lookover and prescribed a new medicine that has her much better just after the 2nd day. Thank You Beaumont Clinic !

Excellent first time experience with this animal clinic and Dr. Beaumont. Every staff member I encountered from start to finish was top notch. Professional, knowledgeable, and kind. Everything was also super clean, organized, and well maintained(it is established in an older building). Dr. Beaumont was just GREAT. He is a calming presence, & my 100lb mastiff was immediately at ease. My dog needed updated shots, he gave those, gave a good physical, & evaluated a more emergent health issue(which has panned out fine). He answered my questions, & I did not feel rushed, or pushed out the door(we were their last appointment of the night). Highly recommend, and we have a new Vet home now.

Dr.Beaumont & his team has taken care of all of our pets with great care, understanding, and support for our family. Our manx particularly has had some severe health issues and they treated him with the same care & love as if he was their own pet. He & his team has even been there for me as I come to them crying scared for him (our manx) & our family dog, and did follow up calls for both them & me. They are also the only vet I have used for spay/neuter procedures that our pets didn't come back with personality changes & trauma. Their pricing is not extreme like other vets, and they do everything they can to save us money on our very much needed prescription food that has helped our manx health issues completely subside. Our manx is a male kitty who had urinary & stress issues caused by A DIFFERENT vet's faulty & botched neuter. They also provided excellent care & knowledge & support for our elder diabetic kitty we moved here with until his final days who passed of old age. Honestly I can not stress enough how thankfully I & my family are for their care, support, knowledgeable treatments for our existing pets, ( 4 cats & 1 elder Rhodesian ridgeback), and trust every referral for medications (our kitties hate pills), and if needed a vet they work with for one of the few things they don't do.
