How to Save Money at Missouri Valley Vet - Mandan
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.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting 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.

My neighbor and I brought her rather large husky into the vet for his yearly check up… And she just happened to ask if they would be able/willing to do his nails and trim up his backside. They did not hesitate for a second! She told them that if you just shave his backside or touch his paws he freaks out, and becomes VERY tough to handle!!They even offered to do his nails!! They seemed excited… silly vets… I do say, I admire the willingness to put their lives in danger like that! I was going to miss them when Koda sat on them. So when they started grooming him and doing his nails, there were some primal howls of discontent screaming for his mother and then all of a sudden we saw two girls running towards the battle. And a yell from the vet and 2 more came charging in! Then 2 more running down the hall…. I’m pretty sure the secretary even jumped in to lend a hand!! I was extremely impressed by their professionalism as well as their bedside manner. I will not take my dog anywhere else from now on!!

They healed my 🐈. I have a super friendly black cat who routinely kills and eats adult rabbits and bunnies. It is everything we can do to keep him parasite free. Recently he was puking puddles of blood and after a shot of antibiotics and a round of topical dewormer, the little mutant has managed to survive yet another brush with death. Thank you Missouri Valley Vet for getting him in so soon!

The vet was super nice and got us in quickly. I would’ve given 5 stars but I personally believe that $30 for a nail trim is outrageous for a 3.9lb kitten.

After a horrible experience with another vet clinic, I took my English Bulldog back to Missouri River. He has been a patient there years ago, but for whatever reason we switched. Bad decision. The other clinic always complained about my dog and never examined him in the same room I was in. Missouri River does examine your animal in front of you. He had two eye ulcers, that the other clinic didn't even diagnose. The other clinic insisted his problem was "eyelash irritation" and needed his upper eyelids removed. He didnt. I'm glad I fired them and went back to Missouri River. I know my dog is being well taken care of and they actually care about his overall health.

Absolutely horrible service I brought my puppy here and he was having problems and they dismissed it quickly without explaining anything to me but said it was fine turns out it wasn't fine he had an infection. They took 30+ mins just to have me pay bc there reader wasn't working and we're absolutely rude and did not act professional at all. Highly recommend just going to Steele
