How to Save Money at Duluth Veterinary 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.

For many years (from 1995) I have doctored with Duluth veterinary Hospital with an assortment of dogs and cats. At times with a geographical move, I’ve seen other doctors but have found that the quality and expertise at DVH resulted in diagnoses previously not given. The correct diagnosis resulted in longer and better lives for my beloved pets. That’s money well spent. Staff are kind and efficient in a well run practice.

We are new to the area and hadn't yet established care with a vet. Our puppy needed to be seen as she was having some concerning symptoms. DVH was so kind and helpful and got our sweet girl taken care of. Thank y'all so much! P.s. Sunni loves her new scarf.

It took a couple months or so before we could get Pickle in for her initial check up, but the wait was well worth it. The staff is SO FRIENDLY and you can just tell that animal well being is their way of life, not just a job. I was inspired to finally write this review because recently Pickle destroyed a remote and I couldn’t find one of the batteries. I panicked. The staff was able to squeeze me in for an X-ray within an hour of my first visit phone call to them. I was so worried, but the vet and everyone at the front desk was so positive. Thankfully, the X-ray showed a battery-free belly. I was absolutely relieved. If it weren’t for the staff at Duluth Veterinary Hospital, I would have had to spend at least 5x as much at the emergency vet or stayed up all night worrying about Pickle’s well being. 10/10 to the staff and a big THANK YOU!
