How to Save on Veterinary Costs at VetCare Montana

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.

We LOVE Dr. Mckenna! She is the best with my 2 dogs Sarg & Chief. We have been coming to VetCare MT for years and will mot go anywhere else! Every year we go in for our Annual checkups & my baby Sarg even had to get surgery as his prostate was enlarged & we had no idea until theu found it. Thank you to all those that work at the clinic. We appreciate you all! The Dr and the one assistant (tech) that always checks us in and helps us is amazing as well!

Vet Care Montana has the personal touch that feels like they care about our puppy. We never feel rushed and our puppy likes the staff. Highly recommended

I called at 2p.m. because my Chihuahua wasn't acting like himself, lethargic and vomiting. They got me in at 4p.m. the same day! The people there are so kind and caring, they listened to everything I was concerned about. After finding a slight fever, and the tenderness of his tummy. (Diarrhea) and a stool sample. She asked if an x-ray would be okay to rule out an obstruction, I said yes of course. Thankfully he was cleared of that but diagnosed with pancreatitis. They educated me on how to treat him, gave me 2 prescriptions and sent some food for him to get him back on track . Thank You So Much

This is by far the best vet in town. I know from experience. If there has ever been a emergency this is the only vet who would care for my animals with the love and attention any pet owner would hope for. She is the best. Thanyou Spring

I boarded my little dog for 4 days. He was happy when I picked him up, they made sure that he took his medication twice a day. I will definitely take him back there for boarding. The price as very reasonable.
