How to Save on Veterinary Costs at State Ave Veterinary Clinic

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

I came in since my little girl (dog) was unable to jump on the bed or even climb the stairs one morning. They were able to see me the same day. They did bloodwork and an ultrasound and couldn't fine anything wrong. They gave her pain medication which helped a little. The next day I brought in her fecal sample and they were able to make time to see me and administer the proper medication. I wanted to thank them for being attentive and helping her. Hopefully this is her much needed treatment 🙏

Dr. Lenz in an extremely knowledgeable and caring veterinarian. She is very gracious with her time and attention to ensure all questions are addressed. I am so happy to have found her - highly recommend!

I was a client of State Avenue Vet but after tonight, I will no longer be one. Called after hours emergency and spoke with the on call vet who was clearly annoyed to have been disturbed while in bed. So sorry to have been concerned about my little dog. Maybe I didn’t have an emergency, but it would have been nice to speak with someone who at least sounded like they cared.

My wife and I are new to dog ownership and brought Maple our Miniature Daschund to get her vaccines/microchipped and be seen today. We were very pleased with the services we received and they were great with our little 🐶. If your looking for a great Vet this is the place! Also on a side note the facility is top notch and very inviting.

Take your loved pets anywhere but this vet. Too many horror stories and too many mistakes/misdiagnosis and way WAY too many deaths. These people need to be reevaluated by whoever gave them their licences to practice veterinary medicine. Go elsewhere save yourself the money and the heartbreak. Horrible that a vet continues to be in business the way they are. **** And yes, of course you would not have any record of me coming to your hospital because I did NOT come into your hospital, I had spoken to you three times on the phone (which was more than enough for me to make up my mind about never trying to use your services and then especially after hearing all of the horror stories from other people in Dickinson about your practice) as I was trying to pick up a $40.00 case of prescription food for my two pugs as I had just got back into Dickinson from Canada and staying in town for 6 months again... so no this was NOT "cyber bullying" or "odd" as you are trying to cry and whine about, this was and IS an actual legitimate complaint and I still stand by everything I have stated. I took my business to West Dakota Vet, who were more than willing to help me with my dogs prescription food for their pancreatitis. ******* just a fyi.... with a perscription written from the dogs regular veterinarian... you can in fact purchase perscription food at pretty much ANY other vet office. Id suggest you and your staff brush up on the actual laws concerning this... unless of course..as I see...you'd rather keep on arguing with clients and turning them away simply because you dont even have the first clue before speaking and arguing. It really makes your business and you look even more incompetent and pathetic... but of course you already knew that from all of your other generic anger filled replies to other legitimate complaints. Have a great day.. and good luck with your future business.
