How to Save Money at Delta Veterinary Clinic

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.

Too bad we are a trucker. This is probably a place to go. We found this place because they are near at the truck stop. We got a vaccine for our puppies. They are very accommodating. The Doctor was very nice and professional. Keep it up.

Service is good, and they seem to have a sentiment toward pet lovers. Had to put a beloved boxer down a couple of years ago. They made a very sad and uncomfortable experience to be as tolerable as possible. We LOVE our pets and have three, one of which is close to the end, and what an example she can be of unconditional love and resilience. I only cry when a beloved pet or a family dies. The loss is uncompaortable to anything in my 62+ years of life!

Worst experience ever for me and my little poodle. I told them not to shave her because it's cold . They hurt her front paw. It's been 5 days and she's still skiddish and jumpy, and she's never been like this in all 3 years of her life.. See attached photos of some of the haircutc.

They did a great job on or Dachshund, Baby, this morning, her surgery went well, she's of course not liking her cone but that's to be expected. Riding home so far she's laying down and calm. I wish they honored payment arrangements but ultimately they are amazing and the important part was Baby being healthy and they always do a terrific job on that! Our family appreciates all of you there!

Thank you so much to Dr Sindle and the kind support staff at Delta Veterinary Clinic. We were a few days from home when our 12-week old sheltie began showing symptoms of an infection. From our initial call to our visit 3 hours later, the staff was quite empathetic to our away-from-home story and did everything to make our visit successful. Our sheltie can now begin her healing process and we can follow up with our home vet, if necessary. Thank you!!
