How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Viking Drive Veterinary 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.
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

I've been using Dr Thomas and his staff since 2010. They are the sweetest. And really care about your furkids. Saved mines life more than once. My boy Dozer is always scared of the vet visits from past trauma at the pound. But he's always excited to see Mrs Kara. And get his head scratches from her. 110% recommend Dr Thomas and his staff to everyone I know!! Thanks Guys!!

What can I say and how can I start this off. This place is by far amazing and they did their best for my fur baby Rocco Jaxson. From the front desk staff to the Dr Thomas!!! We’ve had our dog for going on 10 years and yes he was a senior dog and we just found out about a lot of health issues that day we brought him in. This was the scariest feeling ever losing our dog but they made us feel comfortable and did everything they could have done. We appreciate the service and generosity that your office gave us! We have all our memories at home!!! Thanks once again!

The staff was great even the Dr, but after the high cost, he was to call me to check on my dog, never called, and never returned my call. So not pleased

I can not stress enough , just how wonderful this vet is. I have taken my animals here for years. They know each one of them by name and love on them to make them comfortable. The Dr is amazing with my animals and extremely pleasant to be around. All of the girls up front are amazing and I call Kara anytime my cat sneezes and she's always so nice and never makes me feel crazy. I would recommend this vet to any and everyone. They also don't break the bank. That's a plus.

Thank you Doc and all for being so caring.
