How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Emerson 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.
Consider pet insurance

Let me begin with I've been going to this animal hospital for 10+ years and my last visit changed my perspective on this money-hungry veterinary office. I sent my son to go get our perfectly healthy three-year-old dog a rabies vaccine. I specifically told him to mention she only needed the rabies shot and nothing else. When he arrived at the hospital he specifically told the receptionist, and doctor that she only needed the shot. All went well and my son continued to pay for what he had believed was the cost of the shot. The front desk worker had just named a price and my son believed that was the cost without seeing any breakdown for the charge. My son gives me the receipt later on and I'm in shock at how much the shot was. I later go on to see that they had charged for an office visit which had cost more than the actual shot. I was in disbelief at how I was charged for something I didn't ask for and was never told about, as well as something that took two seconds to do. I decide to call the office and try and get a refund for the office visit. I was told I would not be getting a refund and that they don't have to tell people about extra charges. I'm still in disbelief and disappointed at how an animal hospital took advantage of a healthy dog and a young face. Just be aware next time you take your pet there and make sure you aren't being charged for anything you don't need!!

I was a longtime client here and I've referred many friends and family here because of how wonderful this office USED to be(even after moving almost 45 minutes away I still was willing to make the trip). Over a week ago I called looking for a simple nail trim appointment for my dog. When I called they let me know they had something available for 12 in the afternoon the following week I wrote it down while I was on the phone put it on my calendar. Should be that simple right? No. I arrived for my appointment to be told by a receptionist who looked and sounded like she couldn't care less that I had a 10:45am-that I missed my appointment and everyone was on lunch, the end. She never offered to rebook, NOPE didn't even try, basically said to us "oh well. We can't help you." and turned her head. So lazy, unprofessional, and unbelievably rude. I had to ask “why did no one call me and tell me I was late? Why did no one confirm at all?! Why was I told 12?!” No answer just couldn't be bothered. **In the year 2022 who doesn't text/email confirmations for appointments?!** Some of the vets here are wonderful, despite the horror stories I've read and heard (not returning emergency phone calls etc, not refilling regular meds, etc). Bottom line the office is dirty and dated in many ways (physically and technologically) and it's something I looked past for a long time because how nice the staff WAS. They have lost a loyal client today. Do yourself a favor and skip this place and the headaches.

They were AMAZING!! Took my 7 month old pit bull Zeus for a neuter two days ago. Dr. Esposito and Head Tech Loretta answered all my questions before I needed to even ask any. They treated Zeus like he was one of their own and I couldn’t be happier!! Thank you so much for your great work!!

What a friendly and knowledgeable place. We purchased a voucher from Friends of Animals for our puppies spayed procedure. First time we ever went to Emerson. They took such wonderful care of our precious puppy Sadie. We dropped her off at 8 AM met with Dr Esposito he did an examination and we left. She was ready for pick up at 4:30PM. Everyone one at the front desk, the doctors and support staff were just fabulous. It’s great to know I have another Vet I can rely on. Thank you Emerson Animal Hosital 🐶

My puppy loves it here! She always comes in happy/excited and comes out the same way. Dr. Korsgen has made every experience here great and we are so appreciative Editing to emphasize how GRATEFUL we really are! We couldn’t have picked a better place to take care of Penny- having your pup injured is scary for your pup… let alone you. We always felt informed and in the right place. Thank you to everyone at EAH - can’t wait for her regular check ups
