How to Save Money at Floral Parkway Animal Hospital

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.

I LOVE DR. REGER!!! My baby girl shihtzu had diarrhea, doesn't sound like a big deal but she was sick-sick for waaay too long. At first we thought we could handle it but no matter what advice we followed, NOTHING was helping. Since we're new to the area (literally just moved to Pender Co 3 weeks ago) we couldn't go as a walk-in but they got us in for an appt fairly quick. We saw Dr. Reger and she is AMAZING! She gave us different treatment options, she wasn't trying to push expensive tests, that was obviously an option but she wanted to try meds first before we broke the bank. Her appointment was Monday evening, my baby girl started her meds Monday night and TODAY (Wednesday) SHE HAD HER FIRST NORMAL POOP! I'm so happy and relieved I took a pic of that lil poopie, it's the first solid poop she's had in almost a month, so I seriously might frame it 😂. TY DR. REGER!! TY to the sweet vet tech we spoke with first, TY to both front desk girls that checked us in and got my girls records from her previous vet. TY FLORAL PARKWAY VET HOSPITAL! Hopefully we won't need her again anytime soon 🤞🏽, but if/when we do we're 100% going there and requesting Molly Reger. Rumor says THANK YOU!! Her lil buttbutt is grateful for you, too! Oh and we were relieved at the bill, we didn't know what to expect but we were tickled that we weren't overcharged AT ALL!

The wonderful team at Floral ( formerly Dineen) have helped care for my 4 dogs over the past 20+ years. One, with their help, lived nearly 18 years happy and healthy, thanks to their care and attention to all things large and small. Amazing team.

Care for the fur babies has been excellent. Customer service out front and over the phone certainly represents areas for improvement. Buyer beware with the medications, my last refill I experienced a significant price increase. Over $1 a pill for carprofen, major retailers offer this pill for 52 cents a pill. Cant imagine things will improve with the new ownership.

Floral Parkway and staff are truly the best of the best. While we mostly see Dr. Jenkins, every single doctor and staff member here is amazing. Dr. Jenkins quite literally saved my Boxer puppy's life and continues to go above and beyond for us every single time. We have seven personal dogs, including a working-line Belgian Malinois, and the team has always worked with us, trusted us as owners, and never forced unnecessary sedation or turned visits into bad experiences for our dogs. Their professionalism, education, and skill level are unmatched. They explain everything in detail, make sure all of my questions are answered, and follow up after procedures because they genuinely care about our pets as much as we do. Communication is always clear, their work is outstanding, and their prices are incredibly fair for the high level of care they provide. It's rare to find a veterinary team that combines compassion, knowledge, and trust the way Floral Parkway does. I am beyond grateful for everything they've done for our dogs, and I wouldn't take them anywhere else!!!
