How to Save on Veterinary Costs at BluePearl Pet Hospital
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 appreciate the staff's compassion and care for my Lilly Bean. In particular, the technician working Thursday and Friday night, after 8p, was exceptional. I hope she knows how much her compassion and patience dealing with a neurotic dog mom meant to me. I also can not thank Dr. Brand enough for her swift decision to recommend Beans to stay overnight so she could be seen by Internal med the next morning. Dr. Kim's knowledge about the case made me feel confident having Lilly Beans in their care. Lastly, Dr. Conflitti, your endearing comments about my sweet little girl, and taking the time to let us tell you all about the little fur baby she really is, helped us more than you know. Leaving your fur kid overnight is so hard, but knowing that Lilly's bed and blanket situation was up to her very high standards helped me feel better about leaving her for another night. I knew she was comfortable and starting to be more like herself. Everyone was wonderful, truly. I know cost is often brought up in reviews. Sometimes its hard for even the best pet parents to offord the veterinary care our pet's needs, and sometimes pet owners confuse and misplace their feelings on the caregivers. After 3 days of care, we definitely had a hefty bill (to be expected for the around-the-clock care Beans received). But every day, and every time I spoke with any staff member, the teamwork that was demonstrated and all the knowledge and experience they shared, I knew and understood how valueable this all was to get my pup better. Right down to every test that was recommended and completed, leading to Lilly Beans treatments and steady improvement, I felt it was worth every penny for everything they do. Thank you Blue Pearl Team. Lilly is looking forward to getting back to to her adventures with her sister Rye.

Very knowledgeable Specialists, Blue pearl was recommended to me by my local veterinarian, and I’m thankful they did. They helped my dog with her lymphoma, and gave me extra time with my pup that I wouldn’t have gotten without them. I’m very thankful for their support, and they helped me understand everything that was going on with her cancer. Even when I wasn’t able to make the trip out to get my pups care, they stayed in contact with my local vet, and worked together with them to keep her healthy.

We are a retired couple and thought to have seen everything regarding price gouging. All employees when making eye contact offered a big smile. The overall service was acceptable. Saturday our beloved 11-year-old Dog suddenly could not move and was in pain. Our regular veterinary VCA Animal Hospital being closed recommended Blue Pearl Animal Hospital for emergency care. On Wednesday they decided to do surgery to remove a 5-centimeter tumor near his kidneys. Larson had complications after surgery, but Sunday afternoon things were looking up. That night we received a call that he had taken a turn for the worse, he rallied, then died at 6:30 in the morning heart gave out or stroke they were not sure. Later that day, Monday they phoned with $5,476.39 due for overnight care bringing the total for 9 days to $32,076.39. We have 8 pages itemizing the charges for every little thing with very few reasonable amounts except for the surgeon $1,410.25 she is exceptional. If money is a concern, please check around for better pricing. We have found more cost-effective alternatives in our area, too late for us. Yes, we paid using two Visa cards on almost every visit. Their bill did include $311.50 for cremation.

I have such confidence when I take my dog Sammy to Blue Pearl. Dr. Sharp sees him every six months to do a comprehensive blood and liver panel. The team there saved his life a couple years ago and I trust him in their care. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and Dr. Sharp is, absolutely the best. Sammy is comfortable there and I really wouldn’t want to have to take him anywhere else!

Blue Pearl has some of the most compassionate vets and staff that I’ve ever come across. They helped my sweet boy Cosmo despite my financial situation and were so willing to work with me. he is absolutely perfect now. I’ve had this cat since he was just a couple of weeks old and he is genuinely my baby. Thank you all so much. Knowing my kitty can breathe happily and well puts me at so much ease. You are all angels! Thank you Dr. Confletti and your wonderful team working that night. Thank you for caring about my baby as much as you did. He is now doing wonderful all thanks to you guys. I will forever be grateful !
