How to Save Money at Berrien Veterinary Services

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.

Getting 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.

I recently had need of veterinary services and these guys are great! They got us in the next morning. The staff is wonderfully friendly and the vet there is super nice. We are now part of a northern vet family too! I'm marking this "Jacie approved"!

Compassionately cared for my ill senior dog. Recently moved to Michigan and needed immediate comprehensive veterinarian service to evaluate my senior dog. Called to inquire about being seen and they were able to get us in within the hour! Very kind and caring group.. Provided care options and then followed up the next few days as Daisy recovered. Thank you Berrien Veterinary!

Love it when Dr Johnson still owned it and sweet Dr. Keisel worked there. Sorry if I spelled her name wrong. When it was sold to a corporation things became cold and uncaring. No more personal anything, just income to the Corp. after almost 13 yrs bye.

I love Berrien Veterinary Services. They are always so kind and sweet to my dogs from the front desk to the techs to the docs. They really want my pets to be healthy and are always up front about pricing as well. We had to have a beloved dog put down a few years ago, and they handled it so sweetly with us. I’m glad they have added vets so more people can utilize their services.

A few weeks ago I had to bring in my oldest kitty to be treated for an infection on her back. Not only was I fit in within a week, but also Dr.Lange and Dr. Andrews were extremely helpful and patiently answered all my questions concerning different treatments and was able to update my cat's vaccination records (which I didn't even realize needed to be given more than once). Her infection is healed over and her ears look cleaner than ever, and she's even starting to lose some weight since I put her on her diet! I am super thrilled with this clinic and will be bringing all my animals to come visit
