How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Lakeland Animal Care

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.

5.2.24 The Vets and helpers are spot on. They bent over to meet my needs and my dog came through surgery with no issues. Thanks to the surgery team at Lakeland. Especially Kasha Vet Nurse is not picture just Dr. POOL and Dr. Cunningham with my dog Gunner. Thanks Lakeland Veterinary Clinic of Granger on Fir and 23. You know having a smooth front office is a tough job too and the office staff handles well. Thanks very nice job all the way start to finish.

Very kind and helpful. They break down the cost and explain your options if you request for them to do so. Vet techs are amazing, and I love how big and comfortable the rooms are. Glad to have my sweet kitty be a patient at Lakeland Animal Care!

This facility is embarrassing. I’ve honestly never had a worse experience at any business than I had with Lakeland. If I could give a zero or a negative score, i would. For context, My visit was over a year ago. I’ve now randomly run into four different people and shared my experience. All of them have said they heave heard similar stories about this place. Not all people leave reviews. I didn’t for more than a year. I brought my 11 year old dog in for a routine checkup. The vet gave him three different medications -prednisone, nexgard, antibiotic,- within two days he was projectile vomiting blood. He nearly passed away. Over the course of his treatment - which cost more than $5000 - I was told I should put him down, they took X-ray after x-ray, took the same blood samples numerous times. Nexgard was clearly one of this issues involved with the treatment… fine, vets give those to dogs all the time. Sometimes dogs have a bad reaction. For this reason nexgard has a process set up for them to help with vet bills. All your vet needs to do is write an email and fill out a form. I paid these people 5k+ you’d think they could write that email for me. Nope. Too much to ask to help me retrieve some of my monies. I left this clinic after this event and have asked them numerous times to provide the X-rays they took which they have not done. It’s been over a year. I’ve considered filing a suit, but it’s really not worth the headache. The only reason I’m writing this is because they had the audacity to send me a text, over a year after I had last seen them, to say Wyatt was due for a visit. The girls are nice enough but this facility will do whatever it takes to make money. They are opportunists. The way I was treated was embarrassing. I would very very strongly recommend you bringing your animal elsewhere unless it is an absolute emergency and Lakeland can take them. Thankfully, I went on to another vet. My dog is now 12 - if it were up to Amanda, she would have put him down.

I didn't know what to expect. We had a the best caring experience even for a traumatic day for us. Highly recommended! Everyone, from front of house to nurses and techs and the vet herself were professional AND caring. I know we'll be back.
