How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Oakes Veterinary Services

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

Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

Very caring people about your pets love the place

Jul 20, 2023

Hello. I’d like to start this off by personally saying that this is one of the best Veterinarian clinics around that I’ve been to. One of my animals grew ill very sudden and needed urgent attention. Before I came across this Vet clinic I had gone to my original Veterinarian and they had told me that they couldn’t get my animal in for the next 2-3 days (even though my animal was acting really strange - wouldn’t eat, drink, or go to the bathroom for at least 2 days, and continued to grow worse to the point he was hiding in a place that was very hard to get him) therefor I reached out to this vet clinic and they took him in immediately, soon finding out if I would have waited another day or two his bladder would’ve ruptured and he would no longer be with us. Needless to say and to cut this short I would recommend this Vet clinic to anyone. They had taken great care of my animal, kept me informed every day that he stayed there - they were the first to call me in the morning every day right when they opened their doors and also messaged me throughout the day, and also every night before they went home.This veterinarian clinic cares deeply, explains everything on what they are doing or what will be going on, and is very respectful towards their patients as well us owners. I’m very grateful for them saving my furry friends life - he is now home and is his happy playful self again (along with eating, drinking, and now going to the bathroom)! Thank you Oakes Veterinary Services for everything. Keep up the great work.

Service is not too personal because they take my pet into a separate room to do exams, shots etc. Because of COVID but then they walk into the room with me and talk to me without a mask on. So what's the point? Why can't I see how my pet gets treated like it used to be?
