How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Farmington Veterinary Clinic

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.

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.

OMG, Doc is the best! Very caring and gentle. She's very knowledgeable and understanding. I highly recommend this team! They take care of all 5 of our fur-kids! Very accommodating. ❤️

Pros- very kind, good people and pet skills both, clearly care about the animals, give you as much time as you need (once youre actually in the appt) Cons- Very slow- waited almost two hours after our scheduled appointment time for our dog to be seen, no apology or comment from the staff or vet- seems to be their MO. Not science based - discussed treatment for late stage osteoarthritis and got a lot of anecdotal stories about supplements and people feeling xyz, but no research/ clinical trial based info. Same story for a few other questions we had about our senior dog’s health. Not happy with the lack of knowledge and up to date info.

Office is total chaos which is sad because she is great with our pets. Too long to get apt. and lots of time phone rings off the hook, so you have to keep calling.

We’ve switched to Carrabassett Veterinary Services just recently, and other than it being further away from our house, we couldn’t be happier. They are 1000% more attentive to their paying customers. My dog has had several issues over the last several months. Farmington Vet used to be our place to go to. We could never talk to a person. So you always have to leave a message. In the past year, I couldn’t get my dog seen at all. If they called back, it would be days, if not weeks later. At that point we had to take Gisele to be seen at the Auburn Emergency Clinic, which is at least $150 each time. They have been Gisele’s doctor a hell of a lot more than Farmington Vets. In a prior Google maps review I had posted this FACT, that we hardly ever hear anything back, if at all. Today I had made the mistake, and called to possibly giving them another opportunity mainly to do with them being closer which is more convenient. I leave a message again (of course). To my surprise, I hear back within 20-30 minutes. The so called vet was not calling back to help with my pet, was not calling back to apologize for the lack of service over the last several months. She was calling back to voice her being upset that I had voiced my poor experience there. Unbelievable. Made the best decision to leave this train wreck of a business
