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

We've used this vet for years & always felt that they were always trying to find a way to increase our bill by adding additional services when we would come in for a specific service. What prompted us to leave for good was when they gave us an estimate for dental work for our dog & we called another recommended vet for a comparable quote & they were half the cost. We switched then & we were charged exactly what they quoted. Saved $900! Gambrills Vet is outrageously expensive knowing what we know now.

BEWARE! Last week, I called on Wednesday and made an appointment for 1:30 on Sunday. The next day, on Thursday, someone called back and tells me that they double booked and that they need to change the appointment to 12:30. I said ok. I show up on Sunday at my appointment time and the lady at the front desk tells me that the doctor is running "about 45 minutes behind." I'm thinking to myself, I just drove 20 minutes to get here, why didn't you call me earlier! This is the third time something like this happens. My very first time at this place, I waited an hour and after the hour the tech comes in and tells me that I will need to reschedule because the doctor is too busy. Done with this place. So disrespectful and inconsiderate of my time. So disorganized and poorly managed. There is another place the looks at exotic pets in Severna Park... going to try that place.

I've been using Gambrills Vetenarian for 7 years now for my Frenchie GG and they have been nothing but great. Sometimes there is a wait that's to be expected it's a hospital for pets, and if someone comes in as emergency through out the day of course they are going to run a bit late. They suggest good preventive care and their dog day care is great 👍. Expense wise it's convenient location and experience is what you are paying for. For my GG there is no amount I would not pay for. Bottom line good place to take your love one. They do care about you and the best health for your love one. THANKS TO ALL THE STAFF. (GG and Mark Ball).

I am extremely humbled and grateful for the excellent care provided to my fur baby Nyla (Hope). Having been diagnosed with heartworm, prior to turning 1, I was devastated. I have never dealt with heartworm with any of my previous pups and certainly didn’t know what to expect. However, the staff have been extremely caring, kind, and comforting in navigating me through the process/diagnosis. The staff have bestowed many compliments on Hope; and deem her their favorite. I have boarded her several times much to the delight of the staff. Hope always has a great time; and it’s often difficult to try to get her to return home. Although services provided are a bit costly, it pales in comparison to the care provided.
