How to Save Money at BluePearl Pet Hospital

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.

We had an excellent experience with our baby at the Golden Valley BluePearl Pet Hospital location. The staff was always very friendly and communicative. They taught us a lot about how to best care for our dog through the whole ordeal and were very understanding of any questions we had. They took great care of our boy while he was in the ICU and genuinely cared about him and his healing processes. They were honest with pricing and diagnosis. Kory and Amanda helped us understand how to better care for our boy and helped us get him home.

Our dog was in a fight. Dr Rachel McClellan was so nice and knowledgeable. She took very good care of our sweet girl. The rest of the staff was very nice and caring also. Great experience during a hard situation

It was my first time going in an emergency with my beloved Maia Bella! She was sick, I couldn't do much for her and I was devastated but, I want to say that the team is very compassionate and my Maia Bella was treated so well before being...😭 I know that my Maia Bella was anxious for being in a different place but momma was able to calm her down, she was opening and closing her paws and purring as she always did while I was holding her. I know she had a happy live because I gave her a home and she was shy, but we gave her so much love that she fell in love with us the same way we did with her! I want to say thank you for treating her so nice and that I did received today 7/8/24 the postal card! I love that it has a dedicated message for us about her. Thank you again!

When we went there with our kitty we had to wait because it’s an emergency room and we had to wait like in human ER.. it’s good to not be rushed to the front of the line at human ER because it means you are not dying! Then when it was our kittys turn it was not free.. medicine doesn’t grow on trees.. and the team did good medicine! My kitty is still here! I don’t really understand the negative reviews left here.. Disappointment in wait time is surprising maybe these people have been fortunate enough to never have gone to a human ER. And being upset at the prices.. think about how at a human ER these treatments cost astronomical amounts more! Something has to be paid for or there wouldn’t be an animal ER to bring pets to anymore! And saying that the staff are uncaring about pets.. those people wouldn’t be there getting treated poorly if they didn’t care about pets.. Have some sympathy for other people!

Very kind, very quick service. We drove an hour, my dog had split the pad of her paw in two.. literally. It was 1030/11pm before we got there. I think she was in to be stitched up by midnight and on our way home by 230am. Lots of information on care and med info for discharge. The staff and care was amazing. My only negative was- I didn’t talk to the Dr after she was sedated and stitched up. Just the nicest desk associate who read me the discharge paper. I had a lot of questions and even more the next day when my brain wasn’t so foggy from being up all night. I would have liked direct communication with the Dr. thankfully the staff is amazing and did a fabulous job answering questions, and giving me pointers. Though I hope we don’t need their services again, they will be my first stop if we ever need them again.
