How to Save Money at Clarksville PetVet
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.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting 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.

My first experience here was great a few years ago. My most recent visit was very upsetting. The female vet (forget name) assumed my pitbull was aggressive even after I corrected her multiple times. She seemed afraid and kept throwing treats at him in the corner of the room and wouldn’t let me let him go. He also has a note that he’s aggressive in his file now. He is not aggressive and clearly judged for his breed. I will not be coming back and not recommending this place to anyone.

New customer too Pet Vet. The receptionist was incredibly rude and very unhelpful, and was talking down to me. Retired Xray CT MRI Engineer with over 30 year of customer service and customer service training. I was SCOLDED by her for being early by 5 minutes. Was Charged $131.60 for 35 pills of Apoquel. Can buy on line at Petco for $80.00. This is also bad for the stomach of your dog. The DR. did not ask if my dog had stomach problems. Bill was $443.34 For Allergies. When the DR. called me I could hear my dog barking in the background and when showed up for pickup he was still barking. Standard Poodle. Beware, this is a Business. Dr.Tia Perry

I have been bringing all 3 of my dogs and foster dogs here for years and I absolutely love them! They are always realistic with me and budget conscious.

Dr. Martof is absolutely wonderful! She has amazing bedside manner and was able to quickly gain the trust of our incredibly anxious cat. She is very knowledgeable and made going to the vet an enjoyable experience.

useless service and drained my bank account for no reason. my mini labradoodle has been having a slight limp whenever he would sit for a long time and this has been a problem since mid-december. after observing his limp for a month, we decided to take him to the vets at pet vet for a look. they kept him all day and took an x-ray only to tell us that it was because of his weight and that he needed to lose it and he should be fine, and sent us off with a $375 bill, a nutrition guide, and some pain meds. not even 4 days later, my dog ran after a fox beyond our houses fence, and when he stopped we noticed he wasn’t putting his foot down at all. and after giving him the prescribed pain meds accordingly, after a day we called pet vet again and got an appointment for the next day. but this time, the vet, just by touching the leg area, said he tore his ligament and might need surgery. they insisted on another x-ray and observation, and when we came to pick him up again, they slapped us with a $400+ bill, for something they could’ve told us the week before, before things got worse. after arguing, they finally reduced the bill to $365. all of this happened in the span of 6 days, and they basically robbed us and now my dog is in even more pain than he was before.
