How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Petfolk Veterinary & Urgent Care

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.

The Veterinary Technician and Veterinarian were amazing! I was terrified my dog had a cyst that could burst and the Technician was empathetic and gave me vital information that reduced my anxiety. The Veterinarian was patient and answered all my questions without any judgment. My dog ended up being fine, however, I will never forget how kind and caring all of the office staff is at PetFolks. I bought the plan that allows you to have free visits and I have already saved money. It is totally worth the cost.

Pet folk is great! My dog was very sick out of the blue. They were able to see him right away. Dr. Lesiecki is excellent. The team went above and beyond to get my pooch better. Adding to the last review my Miniature Schnauzer was sick another time. Dr. Wilson and staff at South Park were excellent. For follow up I saw Dr. Grant in Huntersville who researched my dogs case thoroughly. He’s very caring and explains everything in detail. Petfolk is awesome from phone staff to medical staff.

All assistants and Vets are always so friendly, welcoming, and professional. I leave with a feeling of peace of mind and that it was worth the visit- they are very thorough and provide all necessary medications and instructions.

Pets seldom become sick during traditional business hours, which made our visit important on a Sunday. Most vets limit hours to the day and our old vet made us call and get an appointment, but would not assign a time if it was urgent, they insisted we come sit in the waiting room until they could work is in. Not Petfolk, they take your pet seriously. Am so glad they came to my neighborhood. Everyone cares about your pet at this office. Highly recommend.

Tucker and I had a great experience (as always) at Petfolk today. Jade, vet tech, was awesome! It was my first time meeting her. She showed genuine concern and care for him. She was also very knowledgeable. I'm very particular when it comes to the care of Tucker and I would have her be his nurse every visit if it was possible. Petfolk is lucky to have her!
