How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Animed Pet 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 want to start this review with saying that my parents have brought our pets to Animed for years and I recently brought my cats to Animed and have always had a great experience with Dr. Salter. The staff has always been pleasant and Dr. Salter is cool, calm, and informative which is why I was so thrown by todays visit. My dad brought his dog in today for the first time, a pit bull. A very happy, gentle, NON AGGRESSIVE, pit bull. We used to take him to VCA but we don’t always have a month to wait for an appt. Anywho. I listened in on the visit. He was seen by Dr. Martinez who was very rude and dismissive. The staff seemed to be really concerned about his temperament and whether he was aggressive before even seeing him. (Poor pitties are always judged). They asked if he would need a muzzle for the visit. Further into the exam, Dr. Martinez was down right condescending. His tone was very off putting. For example, he questioned why the dog was on grain free food. We explained that it was suggested by VCA because of loose stool. His response was “I highly doubt they told you that.” Yeah because I like to buy my dog 100.00 dog food just because….? Just seemed unnecessary. He was seen for his issue and sent on his way. No aftercare instructions. No follow-up for a full exam. Nothing. We will not be returning. It’s not hard to be kind.

Dr. Martinez and all the staff are wonderful treating our dog for any matter, from routine shots to anything else that may arise. We have been going there a long time. This is our fourth pet to be taken there.

I’ve had my dog for about two weeks now , previous owners had used this vet for her since she was a new pup. Apparently they have a previous balance and when calling to receive my dog’s rabies shot info being her new owner they refused to give it me until the previous owners pays their balance. I can’t get her groomed or anything without proof of rabies. They told me she can get the Shot again. Sorry they owe you money but that has nothing to do with me and I still need to take care of this dog. I was planning on going to this vet but that won’t be happening due to lack of care and compassion for my dog.

Dr Salter is a gifted veterinarian. My husband and I have brought our animals here for over twenty years; b4 that, my sister in law took her horse to Dr Salter as he was absolutely the only vet who could float the horse's teeth. The staff is educated, helpful, conscientious, and informed. I recommend Animed without reservation.
