How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Lakeview 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.

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

Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

I just have to say the the staff here are truly the best! Mindy, the vet tech who tried everything she could today to save our sweet baby kitten. Please if you own cats, make sure there is no peppermint oil or cedar oil in the products being used for their cats. My little girl did not make it today, but Mindy and the other staff did absolutely everything they could to help her. I am truly thankful for the caring hands of Lakeview Veterinary Clinic.

Oh, where to start....well, I'll start with AMAZING! My 10 year old Dobie is my everything. Since we moved to Battle Creek and problems started in October 2024 this clinic has been there EVERY time we needed them. From, UTI, bladder infection and crystals in his kidneys to Pancreatitis to, the latest...eating a giant piece of blanket which had to be surgically removed. Granted they did not perform the surgery, they referred me to an ER hospital (after clinical hours, I must add) and then staying in contact regarding all concerns by PERSONAL CELL PHONE!!! They played a vital role in my baby's survival EVERY step of the way. I could never thank them enough. AND ...their cost is LOW! Shows they truly care about what they do and who they do it for. Thank you, Lakeview Vet, as a team but specifically, Dr. Beebe and Mindy....Moxy is still here because of you. ,❤️
