How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Tail-End Vetcare

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

Dr.Duncan and staff are amazing! They care and love all 7 of our fur babies. Dr. Duncan explains everything and will actually show you anything you need to know as she examines your fur baby. They are so polite, knowledgeable, understanding, caring and I could go on and on. I would recommend this vet clinic to all. I’ve honestly never met a veterinarian as kind as Dr.Duncan and her staff. You can tell she genuinely cares about every animal that steps into her clinic. The staff are always so helpful and polite as well. AMAZING CLINIC Hello and thank you from the crew!

I found this place while on the search for a new vet in the area, I looked online and it said they were an affordable "low cost" veterinarian. That wouldn't cost a "mortgage" payment, so I thought this would be perfect for my fur baby and me. I made her an appointment for a teeth cleaning, and a fine needle aspirate and cytology for a couple lumps on her belly. So on their website they say they charge $140 for the teeth cleaning, but then after it's all said and done, they charge me $60 for extra anesthesia, and charge me extra for IV fluids, $30 for extraction and suture of one tooth, and all these extra charges that seems like would be included in the $150 teeth cleaning, especially with supposedly be a "low cost" veterinarian. I would not recommend taking your vet here if you are on a low budget or fixed income. I told them before the procedure that I was on a limited budget and couldn't afford hundreds of dollars, but after it's all said and done, I paid $413 for teeth cleaning and removal of one tooth and for them to do a fine needle aspirate under their microscope.😪

Dr. Duncan is amazing!! She answers all the questions that I have about my dog Kirby and there can be a lot haha. She makes sure I have all the information I need to make the best possible decisions for my pets. The prices are very reasonable compared to some other clinics and the entire staff truly cares about you and your pets health!

Dr. Duncan and her staff were very professional and helpful. They treated my furry son gently and with care. The facilities were nice and clean and up-to-date. The price for an annual dog check up was very reasonable. I recommend this office looking for new vet Pet!

Great, caring doctor! Dr. Duncan and her staff was so gentle and sweet with my dog.. My dog did not cry out once even with the series of shots that he needed to have and that's rare in his experience. Strongly recommend this veterinarian and we look forward to returning for his dental cleaning next year.
