How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Fletcher Animal Clinic

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

Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

I went in on 5/18 with my dog without appointment and not my vet they took him in immediately to observe him. They was very compassionate. I recommend the clinic very highly. Thanks Fletcher Animal Clinic. Needless to say I found my baby the best in Avoyelles parish

We took our pitbull in for having more than regular urination patterns and breaking of house training abruptly. In our initial visit for an examination - there was not a thorough "exam" of his body done, simply some blood work and urine sample taken. At this time we were convinced he had a UTI so did not think much about it (although they though chances were slim, so they should have done a better more thorough exam). Luckily, all blood work came back normal showing no signs of any concerns at the time of this visit. The next treatment suggested was neuter - which we did. At the time of his procedure, we were told they could see infection and swelling of his prostate based on some bulging in his rear private area (should have been caught in the initial examination if done properly). All went well until this point - then after his neutering - the lack of care, concern, and follow up as well as "advice" was less than favorable. Not to mention, a mass found on his testicles was not sent off for any type of testing and has been stated by multiple other professionals now that they cannot believe it wasn't!!! With continued issues, and several calls in, we were told that "he is old, it's what happens". (He is 8.5, so no he isn't a pup, but he isn't geriatric either). okay, fine. we continued waiting for improvement for another 2 weeks while all the signs we tried discussing continued and WORSENED!! Finally, we consulted another vet who has found VERY alarming issues in his blood work! Our sweet boy now has a major infection as well as the possibility of a major respiratory infection that he could have ONLY gotten while in his care at this facility. He stays inside all day, does not go to neighbors, friends, family, nothing. Goes outside to potty and back into our home!! We do not have or allow other animals in our home either. the timeline for this infection plays out to his initial visit, so now we have taken our pet to be cared for and he is worse than in the beginning! The care was not insufficient, until after his procedure then it was "sorry go see a specialist". The lack of concern and brushing off they do for their pet patients is appalling!! I wouldn't ever suggest anyone go to this clinic if you actually need answers for your pets! I pray our sweet boy recovers from all this mess soon - but he has a long road ahead of him now! 🙏
