How to Save Money at Danville Veterinary Hospital
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.

Dr Stone, Dr Tamaki, and Dr Bailey are all amazing. They tried their best to help with my sweet boy, whom we lost 2 months ago. They put up with my smaller, 15yo demon dog, and they got my new baby established. They are kind and listen carefully when there is a concern. Baxter, Muffin Cakes, and Rengoku have all been well cared for!

It wasn’t a good time but it was a wonderful experience. A few months ago we had to say goodbye to the best dog ever. Penny was her name, I’m humbled to be the one that seen her from her first days on earth til her last, to be with her and provide love and comfort when she took her last breath. The entire team at this facility dropped what they were doing to assist us from the point we pulled into the parking lot, all the way til the end when we walked out. Penny was at peace she went in. She was at peace when she went to the other side in comfort, all because of the care and compassion that was provided. And it does not end there. A week later it was time to pick up the ashes and bring her home for good, again nothing but kindness and the comfort feeling that not only are these gals in this line of business because they love animals but they also love people, they love life and make it easy when times are really bad, to see a shining light at the end of the tunnel. A few days later I received a sympathy card and a garden stone in the mail, from the doctor and the team, totally not expecting that. I know they will read this at some point and I really hope it gets shared throughout the entire facility. From my family to everyone on the team at DVH, we are grateful that we choose to come there and to receive the warm comfort that was much needed at the time, your kindness and your hearts are not forgotten nor will they be, I have a reminder everyday, when I walk outside and see the garden stone. I remember my baby and how she was comforted til the end and treated with the special treatment she so deserved. It really helps when you have good hearted people doing great things. Thank you The Chittom Family.

This was my first time working with this vet office and I was very pleased with the service I received! I brought both of my dogs in at the same time and one of them was restless. They were so good with her and gave her treats and pets to give her attention. They explained everything clearly and when one of my dogs had a minor reaction to medication, Dr. Stone called me to discuss other options in less than 2 hrs. Very pleased with the staff, doctor and service!
