How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Willowood Acres 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 have used this vet since I got my Newfoundland and they have been great!! Then I bought a kitten who was ill and they were able to fit me in the next day to help him. I'm reading some of these other reviews and they just aren't fair! The vets are great and attentive, the front desk has ALWAYS been friendly as well! As for wait times, sure sometimes it takes longer, they are working on live animals which makes timing impossible to forsee! I'll continue going here for as long as I have animals! Thank you Dr's for being there for the pets!

It was a sad occasion having to say goodbye to Delilah after 16 years but the staff at Willowood was so helpful and compassionate.

There are nice at the desk. I have only had two small issues which would be petty if I mention them. Boarding is good as well, I ask for a request and they allowed me to do what I requested, I was so appreciative. Try them out if you are thinking about it.

We have used this vet for our 11 month old dog since we got her as an 8 week old puppy. Everything has always been the basics, such as shots, check-ups and prescriptions. I have been told on a few visits that my wait would be a little longer because they've had several 'emergencies' on those particular days. We were always understanding because we would expect the same care should we ever be in that situation. Today I did call with such an emergency and was told that they wouldn't be willing to help me because it's almost 5:30 and they close at 6:00 and that they are in fact NOT an emergency vet. I don't know how I waited for emergencies during my previous appointments (must've just been an excuse) nor do I understand how they can advertise as an emergency vet. What's even more fascinating is that they are supposed to be my primary vet! I could've been there in 10 minutes (20 minutes before they close) but they didn't even ask. Not to mention that they are way more expensive than just about any other place around! Do yourself a favor and find a vet that will give your pet the care they deserve and save yourself a ton of money while you're at it.

After 7 years of bringing my cat here for care, I've finally switched. On my most recent visit my cat needed her teeth cleaned, but sadly Willowood no longer has a dentist on staff, and they referred me to 3 distant vets (Farmington, Ann Arbor, Rochester) who quoted me over $1400 to $1800 for the cleaning and couldn't get me in until April. When I asked if there wasn't a nearer dentist they said 'you should stick with these, they're the best.' A friend referred me to her vet in Flat Rock who got us in that week for the cleaning, were wonderful, caring vets, and did an excellent job for a reasonable price. From now on I will go to the Flat Rock vet for all care. Willowood used to be fine but has really declined in the past couple years. After finally (since Covid) allowing 1 person to go inside with your pet, they still seem to frown on it and encourage you do drop them curbside. Even if you can get an appointment to go inside, you must wait in your car until they meet you at the door and escort you directly to the exam room. Checkout/payment is all done in the exam room too. The vet techs are sweet and friendly, but the vet we saw last time seemed stern and grumpy.
