How to Save Money at Animal Hospital of West Monroe

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.

Animal Hospital is a caring professional clinic with excellent doctors willing to work with clients to provide the best care possible for each animal. They have taken the time to educate me on my pet’s needs and they have been compassionate when difficult decisions had to be made. I have complete confidence in Dr. David and the entire team because I know my pets are in good hands at Animal House.

The only place I will take my Lucy Lou, if it weren't for the wonderful Doctors, nurses, and techs there at Animal Hospital my best friend wouldn't be here with me, two major pit bull attacks, the loss of an eye, a back leg, broken bones, broken jaw, stomach torn open... It was horrible! Thank you everyone at Animal Hospital!!! I wouldn't even think of taking my babies anywhere else! Update: Animal Hospital has been the only vet hospital I would ever even dream of taking my Lucy Lou to, we have been going there for over three years,(too many to count check ups, wormings, and flea treatments, but also five surgeries, two resptory infections, and now Lucy Lou has a slightly enlarged heart they are treating. She's 85 yrs old in our yrs ) These amazing doctors and nurses, and techs that are angels, if it weren't for them my best friend wouldn't be with me now.... I can't speak enough about these god sends! Please give them a try, the most awesome sensitive, loving and caring treatment of you and your pet with the best professional veterinary/ medical services around for your pet, Animal Hospital!
