How to Save Money at Daisy Lane Veterinary 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.

Everyone here is wonderfully kind, and friendly! It’s important to have a vet you trust and Dr Lesh is the one! She has seen three of my cats and my son’s dog, she’s very knowledgeable, takes her time with each patient and she is genuinely concerned about the wellbeing of the animals and the owners. I gladly drive almost 30 minutes because of the wonderful care we’ve received there.

I've been a client of Dr. Lesh's for years, and she is the best! I've never met a more caring veterinarian. She listens to her clients and understands the balance between cost and optimal care that pet owners have to maintain. She is thorough and gentle with our three dogs and two cats--all over the age of twelve--and pays attention to the details. Rather than make our arthritic larger dogs climb on the exam table, she gets on the floor with them and examines them there. For kitties, she keeps a covered cat bed in the exam room so they have a place to hide. When we had to euthanize one of our dogs last year, she cried with us. All of our pets have always loved her, as seen in Lily's happy face in this photo taken after her last exam. We're so grateful for everything Dr. Lesh has done for them and for us!

My friend takes her dog there. They are always pleasant and great with the dog. You can tell they love what they do.

They performed an unnecessary procedure on my dog while she was in for surgery. Then they showed me 5 different ways they had to modify their surgical plan because they had her weight recorded incorrectly. This vet has been fine for basic vet procedures, but I do NOT recommend for surgery or advanced veterinary care. ****2 years later. **** This is my first contact with you. Your late reply to my review is a complete lie. According to your assistant you weren’t even in the office the day of Freda’s surgery. The weight you had her listed at when I arrived for the surgery was 4lbs. The day of the surgery she was 10lbs. I was mad at your assistant because she had not asked me about the change in procedure before performing it. Then when she told me what she had done I asked if everything that was done was required for the the surgery. She told me there was an unnecessary action that was taken. I did tell her I didn’t authorize anything beyond the initial conversation. I still have all the paperwork and if you want to talk to me, for the first time ever, I will be happy to show it to you. If you value your employees so much why did you ask your assistant to have the job of telling me that the surgery was changed due to the incorrect weight on her intake paperwork? I would have preferred to speak to you directly. If you want to call me you have my number.
