How to Save Money at Animal Clinic of Monett

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.

I cannot say enough to express the gratitude I have for this completely exceptional care team. They have treated me and my animals with nothing but kindness, and have gone above and beyond each and every time we had to visit. I have plenty of things to say about them making my pets better when they were ill, but I want to share our most recent and most impactful experience. We recently had to make the decision that no one wants to make, for our 17 year old cat, Sissy. Through the process they were informative and compassionate. We chose to have her cremated. My sister just picked her up today and we are in the best kind of shock. You guys, I expected a simple box, they said they had a paw print and i thought it would be on paper. What we received was an ornately engraved box with a nameplate, and a ceramic paw print of our so beloved cat, along with a beautiful sympathy card. I’m telling you there’s no better place to take your furry loved ones. A message directly to the vets and other staff at Animal Clinic of Monett- Thank you. I’ll never forget your compassion. I can only imagine how hard this line of work is, and you really are angels on earth. Never forget how much you mean to the people and pets you serve.

You can tell that they enjoy, and take seriously, their job of seeing to it that ALL ANIMALS will be cared for and kept in good health. I appreciate all they do for my 2 cats and 2 dogs . They appreciate you too!

I just want to say what a blessing this animal clinic has been to us. A few months back my 9 year old started limping on his right rear leg. Our normal vet in Diamond did x-rays and said that it would probably need surgery to correct and unfortunately they didn't do that surgery in their office. So they referred us to Animal Clinic of Monett. From the moment I called to make the appointment to his last appointment to have his staples removed last week this place exceeded all my expectations. They called me as soon as he was out of surgery then the Dr. called me again that evening to give me an update. They also called a couple days after to check on him. Dr. Harper was amazing. The techs from our first consultation appointment got down and played and loved on my sweet Duke. They made sure that I knew I could call anytime while he was there to check on him. We love our regular vet at Animal Clinic of Diamond but hands down I would take my dog back to Dr. Harper and his staff if we ever needed anything like this again. Thank you for caring for my boy!

The Dr. and staff were great and listened to our concerns. They definitely got me for a long time. They saved my son's pup, and after a few days, Dr. Called to see how she was doing.
