How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Ani-Med Animal Health Care

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.

Dr Mike is great! He was so gentle with my Spazz in the last minutes of his life. Would definitely recommend him. Goodbye old friend! See u at Rainbow Bridge!

I have gone to this vet for 3 years but after this recent visit, I will not be back. Vet tech was unnecessarily aggressive with my dog. Roughly dragged him away from me to the exam table without a word to me about what was happening. Had a chokehold on his collar and harness and laid his full weight onto him, pressing him into the table before the exam had even begun. When I asked why he was man handling my dog like that. He said "its what we have to do". The Doctor didn't say or do anything to make me or my dog comfortable after this conflict. Really bad vibes. Staff at the desk was short and unfriendly as well. I'm not going back.

We have been bringing our dog here for 3 years since we adopted her. Dr Nancy is great and the staff is always kind so us. Our dog is timid and gets very nervous around different situations, the staff always try and make her feel better with special treats and giving attention. Cannot recommend enough.

I have been going to Ani-Med since the early 2000's. I can tell you that they really care about your pet. Dr Mike, Dr Nancy and especially the staff are very professional and want to thank you all for taking great care of my pets.

I've been coming here for the last 20+ years. Dr. Mike is great. He really cares about his patients. He always returns calls and texts and goes out of his way to make sure your loving pets are taken care of.
