How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Mountain View Animal Emergency

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 were there a few nights ago with our cat. I cannot say enough about the entire team at Mountain View Animal Emergency. Everyone from the time we entered until we left were absolutely phenomenal to work with. They were understanding, compassionate, informative, friendly and professional. Thank you for all you did for our little guy and for us. I would more a higher than 5-star rating if I could.

My overall impression was that their goal is to separate you from as much of your money as possible. Beautiful, HUGE facility (I think the waiting room is nearly the size of our vets entire office) and they need to pay for that. Was there from approximately 8pm-2am. Basically was offered 2 choices, surgery or have our pet put down. Surgery would have to wait for the next day, $2,400 to keep her overnight plus surgery cost on top of that ($5k-10k total). Opted to get her stable and bring to her regular vet the next day. She is home, feeling much better. We may only get her for a few weeks or months, but there was no guarantees with the surgery either. Corporate veterinary care.

Unfortunately I've had to use them more than once; cat with cancer, 20+ year old corgi And a doberman with cancer. They have always been compassionate and caring. They also respect you as a client. It's an emergency vet, so of course the prices are a little higher, but reasonable considering they are a 24 hour emergency clinic.

Was there last night from 11 p.m to about 5 a.m in an emergency for my cat Moon, who was struggling to breathe. I ran into the building crying my eyes out because I was terrified of my pet dying and the staff was quick to calm me down without judgement. Very impressed with Grace Lily. Not only is she compassionate and caring towards animals, but she is with their owners too. She made sure to deliver news with care and she explained things to me gently. I was alone that night and she apologized that nobody was there for me. But she was there for me. She offered me a hug despite not knowing me because I was heartbroken that Moon most likely was dying from heart failure. She listened to all of my concerns and answered any questions I had. She made sure to list every option I had before I decided to go with euthanasia, knowing that Moon would be in pain and would not survive much longer. The staff around the reception office was very nice to me. They offered me water bottles and apologized for my loss. I will forever remember how well you guys treated me 💕. My bill might have been $1,000, but I would do it again and again if it meant that my animals were safe and sound with you guys. And to Grace Lily, you are a gem in the vet field. Keep doing what you’re doing, you are amazing at it. Thank you for being there for me when I had nobody that night

This place is excellent from the time you walk in. The staff are excellent and pay attention to you and your baby. I had to put my baby down because of suffering with illness and they were so kind and attentive. The MD was excellent and injected her with no problem and I was allowed to stay and comfort her and spend all the time I needed. The admitting clerk was caring and quick with paper work and explained everything, I am a nurse but still hurts with animals. I would recommend them to everyone. Thanks for caring
