How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Avery 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.

My cat had a blood clot and Dr Jewel would not give up on her. My vet in Charlotte said that she had never seen a cat with her prognosis recover. He worked miracles and I am grateful for his tenacity and love of animals.

This guy, "Deisel," we adopted September 2016 when we lived at Moss Lake. Our temperature & humidity was in the upper 90°s. We found Deisel online and drove to Avery Humane Society, where it was 68° with little to no humidity. This prompted a 5 year searching for a home in these magnificent mountains. Our gratitude to this wonderful community we now call home and may love always find you and those critters ❤️

Dr. Jewel and his staff are the best. He's taken care of my cats since day 1 and I wouldn't take them anywhere else.

I have no idea about this place. I have tried on many occasions to get my pets in & they can never fit us in. I have had 2 medical emergencies with my dogs & they pretty much say...to bad can't help. So, hopefully they are good with the patients they have. But, if your pet isn't already a client there...don't bother calling.
