How to Save Money at Ceglinski Animal 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.

This was my first vet visit with my new Morkie Puppy. I haven’t had a dog since my pit bull died 11 years ago. So, I’ve really lost touch with being a dog owner. I had a lot of question that were answered very well by the vet when I asked the questions... It did feel like a very rushed visit, but I’m sure they were busy. They took my puppy’s weight and said they will come back with results. I was a little confused as to what results she was talking about. Apparently they did a stool sample when they did her weight. I didn’t know that’s what they would be testing on her or else I would have told them not to because she had just had it done at the breeders vet a few weeks prior. I ended up having to pay quite a bit for that visit when a few things could have been avoided if they would have just communicated better. Other then that they seemed nice and good with my new puppy.

Dr. Kelley and the entire staff made us and Jasper feel welcome, and wanted. It was Jaspers first time there and while he was nervous, they did a wonderful job and keeping him comfortable and his tail wagging. They were also very professional, proficient and easy to work with and communicate with. The prices are wonderfully reasonable.

Both Dr. Kelly and his staff were awesome with both the dogs but with us the pet parents as well. Dr. Kelly meets the dogs on their level super awesome. We will continue bringing our wonderful dogs to this clinic. We had a bonus with our visit by Dr. Rushing a super boxer fan, it was much fun and put the pets as ease. Thank you all.

This veterinary service has a loving and very helpful staff that makes both the pets, and their servants feel their caring affection. They do the best to make sure our pets live painless lives and they treat the terminally ill pets so that they enjoy pain free lives until the end. And when the time requires, they assist a pet in passing with a great deal of love and respect. They help ease the pain of pet owners during this sad event in your pet's life! They are also great with puppies and kittens and provide the needed help to raise a new family member. I would never take my loved ones to any other veterinary service, and I recommend you take your loved ones here and you will see what I mean.
