How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Blue Valley Animal Hospital

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.

Dr. Spain is fantastic. We’ve been bringing our 2 dogs to see him for the last 2-3 years and couldn’t be happier. We never feel rushed or foolish even when we bring them in for something that (thankfully) turns out to be nothing to worry about. He reminds me of the trustworthy small town vets on old TV shows that remember all the pets and really care about their well-being.

At the height of Covid, I was traveling crosscountry with my dogs when my 11-pound senior dachshund-pomeranian, Quiver, received a laceration very near her eye. I fervently called every vet along my route, and 7 or 8 of them turned me down before I rang Blue Valley Animal Hospital. They took her in, and due to Covid protocol at the time, I waited in my vehicle. I was expecting the bill to be more than $300 because Quiver had a similar injury near her eye in the past, and it had required anesthesia to treat. The doctor was absolutely so kind, comforting, reasonable, and honest—he managed to do a few drops of glue to repair the tear, and I think my bill was no more than $60 that harrowing day. What a relief!! Soooo much gratitude to you, Blue Valley Animal Hospital!!!

We took our 6 yr old husky Diablo in due to a very bad limp after Stanley said..let's wait and see (that cost hundreds and hundreds of dollars). Dr Rogers saw Diablo and immediately knew he needed a better examination by a neurologist and a ortho. She referred us to Op pet hospital and after a few visits it was determined he had skeletal bone cancer. The decision was made to put my my best friend down because the cancer had spread aggressively and he was in dire pain and unable to walk. The appointment was made and the sad day came. HE WAS AND WE WERE treated like family through the whole process and was put to sleep. 2 days ago I recieved a bouquet of flowers and today a card signed by everyone along with his nose print and paw print. This is the most compassionate vet you will ever find! Dr Rogers is amazing as well as her whole staff. The gal that put Diabalo at ease before the euthanasia was amazing. I'm sorry I can't remember her name. I have two other dogs (family members) and they will now and forever only see Blue Valley pet for care and treatment. In my grief all I can say is they were exceptional and have earned my business for many years to come. Thank you and thank you for your compassion and helping with Disblos journey. Much love!

From the time we walked in until we left we felt cared for by Dr Spain and his team. They jumped into action to help us. Prior to our visit my pup had been through a lot (ER visits 2 other vet appt, a ton of meds, diet changes, pressure to get specific diagnostics, only to have a pip who was getting worse). Dr. Spain took time to really understand and review the ER, the other Vet’s summary notes, labs, etc. After offering varying diagnostic options we came up with a game plan. My pup is pretty ill and trying to find a cause and a treatment plan has been extraordinarily difficult, stressful and quite frankly brutal. I am so grateful. I feel like I have advocates for my pups health. Highly recommend.

They have a great staff but was quoted $2000 to get my dogs teeth cleaned and removed. 😳😵‍💫🤑 Asked a different vet hospital in the area and they said it should be $400 max. 🫶 Other than that they are wonderful and even sent us flowers after our dog passed away.
