How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Glacier 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.
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.

Unfortunately we didn’t even establish care with this clinic as we planned to based on how we were treated just trying to get a call back from a vet regarding a fairly urgent matter for one of our three dogs. I was looking for some advice on a Friday when the regular vet staff was out for how to proceed with scheduling for our pup (rather than wasting our time with multiple appointments) and was assured I would get a phone call back on a Monday. This did not happen, and even when I called midday that Monday I was assured again that a vet would still call me that day. Called Central Valley Vet instead (who we have never seen for an appointment) and got nearly an immediate return phone call (within 5 minutes) from a vet there with subsequent follow up calls throughout that week asking about how our pup was doing and how we’d like to proceed with her care. We’ll be taking our business there instead given the significant lack of responsiveness from this clinic, over a week later and I still never received a return phone call even when we had an appointment scheduled that we skipped given the lack of response we experienced.

Dr. Mark Lawson, the Vet’s, and the staff of Glacier Animal Hospital are excellent in their professional knowledge and compassionate care. Our elderly Emma received the best care and we were informed of every ultrasound, x ray and result along the way. We are not residents and they fit us in and we felt well taken care of and will be forever grateful for their care of our Emma.

I had an INCREDIBLE experience. Not only did Kassidy (I think that was her name, I really hope that's her name because she deserves the credit), she got us booked in the same week due to the situation. A huge thank you to Kassidy for taking the time with me on my first initial phone call and providing 100% top customer service. As someone who works in the pet industry and in customer service, this is so valuable. Mabel is a recent rescue pulled from a local reservation. She needed xrays asap and pain management. The vet explained to me her injuries, and all the techs were patient and compassionate with Mabel as this was one of her first vet experiences as a "feral" dog. All the techs took their time and loved her. Mabel left feeling more confident and had a positive experience, which is SO important for puppies, especially rescues. I will 100% go back with my whole pack.

We've used Glacier Animal Hospital for almost 20 years, and we absolutely love everything about them! From the sweetest ladies who work up front to the techs and vets, we have never had a bad experience. We HIGHLY recommend them 100%!

The staff was great. We were able to get an appointment within a week. I called from the parking lot to advise that my dog did not do well with certain animals and they made sure that the lobby was clear and got us to a room quickly. Will definitely go back
