How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Arcade Animal 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.

Arcade Animal Hospital is the best! We have been taking our animals there for 13 years, starting with Dr. Ryan. When he retired, we were nervous, but Dr Jane is awesome. We recently moved away from the area and it was a very difficult decision to leave this clinic. Dr. Jane and the staff are wonderful to work with. They never pressure you to do tests that are unnecessary. Their prices are very reasonable. Most importantly, they have worked so well with my animals over the years. A couple years ago, we had to put one of our dogs down after hours at the emergency clinic. The next day, Dr. Jane called us to express her sympathy. She is such a nice person. She had been working with us and our sick dog for the previous month and a half. She made us feel assured that we made the right choice and that we did all we could for our dog. They really are the best! When you walk in, they know your name and they remember your pet. We will miss all of the staff at Arcade Animal Hospital!

I’m a new client and extremely happy with how they’ve treated my kitty and me. Everyone there is super friendly and helpful. Arcade Animal Hospital is definitely my go-to from now on!!

Brought my cat here, and Dr Jane Gehr really impressed me. She has a calm, attentive, respectful manner. There was no hard sell for services or products, and prices were quite reasonable. Can't ask for anything more! This is a small practice. The front desk person is also the vet tech. I think they are doing their best to handle customer service (anyone who deals with customers knows how challenging this can be) while keeping top notch care the priority. Also, a tip for those who live in Downtown & Lowertown St Paul. Their location is so convenient! I was able to park on Arcade right in front of their door.

I couldn't be happier about changing to Arcade Animal Hospital 2 years ago after the retirement of our former veterinarian. Dr Jane Gehr is knowledgeable, kind and compassionate. She has a gift for making her patients and their parents feel at ease, even in tough situations.
