How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Access Veterinary 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.

Access veterinary care is my favorite facility for Veterinary medicine. I have been to 4 different facilities and Access for me will always be the one that got away. (Access Staff: If you know, you know. It’s okay to laugh about it now). Everyone always compares Access to Mission Animal Hospital, and while I can’t express enough the professionalism and excellent work they both do, Access will always hold a special place in my heart. In my experience they are the most caring and professional group of people I have ever met. I truly trust everyone there with my pets wholeheartedly. They are amazing for urgent care, and I have never felt quite the connection and level of compassion that Access gives compared to most clinics around. Truly if your pet needs help, this clinic is top.

They were amazing!! We brought our cat in because we thought we had to put him down and he is only 3 years old and they took him back and performed a life saving surgery. They helped us out with the financial aspect too as we didn't have the money up front to care for him. I would 100% recommend Access Vet to anyone. They are so caring and made it a very easy process and were very compassionate toward us! I will be bringing our animals there from now on as they truly care about animals and their families!!

About a month ago I had to bring one of my cats into urgent care for a UTI. She was well taken care of and they were so thorough and wonderful. We had to make the difficult decision to put our other cat Thomas down and we chose to come here because of our wonderful experience with our female cat. I am so glad that we chose the end of life service at Access. They were so kind, compassionate and treated our cat with dignity in his last minutes here. He had a comfortable and painless experience in his last moments with us and I am so grateful for the care they gave us. We will definitely continue to bring our female cat here. Thank you again for all you do.

We recently had to put our dog to sleep and we were recommended to Access Veterinary Care from the Humane Society. We have never brought a pet here before but from the moment we called and throughout the entire process, including getting ashes back, they have been nothing but kind and receptive. Our dog has always been anxious however she seemed at ease at Access. They had a blanket for her on the floor, the kids, my husband and I were all able to cuddle around her. She was calm and relaxed which is exactly what I was hoping for. They team walked us through every step of the process and all of our questions. The kids were able to step outside the door or into the lobby as needed without being the middle of a ton of people as they were grieving. I am thankful we were recommended Access Veterinary Care and we are actually looking to switch our other dog's care to Access in the future because of our experience. Thank you to Access for all you to for these beloved family members!

Access got us in last minute on a Saturday for blood work when my cat was rapidly declining. We had to say goodbye and it was devastating but everyone was incredibly kind throughout the process. I appreciate this clinic and hope to keep bringing my other cats in for routine care since the pricing is more reasonable than most vets.
