How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Animal Health 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.

This was a great place for our pup to stay for the day while we went into NOLA. They offered a free first day which was fantastic and the staff was amazing. They clearly love their guests and care deeply about them feeling at home. Would highly recommend this place.

We love Animal Health Clinic. Our lab, Asher, is treated as well as we treat him at home! When we say, "It's time to go to day care!," he jumps in the car with his tail wagging. The vets and the staff are extremely knowledgeable and all love animals as much as we love our dog. Thank you, Animal Health Clinic!!

I can’t say enough good things about the service at Animal Health Clinic. I was looking for a place to board my 6 month old rescue pup that not only had reasonable prices, but would take care of him so he didn’t feel like we abandoned him. I called for information, they told me to come tour the facility and I registered him for boarding the same day. I was nervous but they reassured me and sent me daily updates, I loved that I could watch yard time on an app. Upon return from out of town I signed up a day care package and started taking him once a week where he plays and interacts with other dogs, best thing I have ever done. Dr. Beckers and her team are very friendly and accommodating and the facility is always very clean. I love the app and reminders when it is time for check-ups to ensure my boy stays healthy. We started our journey with our pup 2 years ago at. AHC and I know my boy is always in good hands. When I say “do you want to go play” he runs to the door and we can’t get in the car fast enough. I highly recommend AHC!

Just had my first experience with my dog (my child) to board for the first time at the Animal Health Clinic. I was very satisfied with the staff and the special attention they gave my dog and other dogs as well. I highly recommend this clinic. Also, since it was my first time ever board, the clinic sent me a picture of my pup via email just for peace of mind. I really appreciated that!

The vets and staff at animal health clinic are fabulous. I would recommend them to any one that truly loves their pets! Over the years we have had many pets/foster pets that have received care at AHC. We have never had a problem getting an appointment, even on short notice they have always had time to help us and our pets.We have been taking our pets there for 20 years. Our pets love Tammy, Alicia the Docs and all of the daycare staff! Dana and Allie are fantastic as well!
