How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Elko 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
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.

Our puppy got a foxtail stuck up his nose while we were in Great Basin National Park. We called Ely and then we were directed to Elko for services. They got us in as soon as we arrived. They communicated the entire time and called with updates on how our pup was doing. You can't go wrong with this vet! As a bonus everything was VERY reasonably priced. We didn't have to break the bank taking care of our pet.

Last night I had called the emergency line because our dog got struck by a vehicle. While I do understand you have a business to run I was told I wasn’t able to bring our dog in. Remind you our dog has never been seen there before just my mother in laws pets. When I asked if I can put the dog under my name with a new account I was told I could not do that and then was told that the closet emergency vet was SLC. But because my mother in laws account got sent to collection and her name was brought up our dog had to travel 3+ hours in pain not knowing the circumstances he was in.

July 18th 11:40 am the technician with long black hair and piercing was extremely rude in the human service and with our dog, I never had problems with the service in this clinic, on the contrary all the attendants were always great but this one is rude, msl moody and bad with humans and animals. If my dog wasn't sick I'd turn my back and tell her to go treat her bad mood somewhere... we pay a lot for veterinary care and don't deserve that kind of stress. she wouldn't let me talk or explain what happened to my dog and said if she wanted to know something she would ask me.. WTH **** special 5 stars thanks to Dr Timothy Worner DVM , Timothy was attentive and professional, explained the causes of our dog's problem and advised us on the best form of treatment. There are professionals and there are people who think they are professionals and in times of need we need real professionals just like Timothy t us, respect and professionalism . we are confident in our baby's recovery

"Expert Care for Your Pets Large and Small from the Vets Who Care" Care about what? Money? This place revealed its true colors after refusing to provide emergency care for my dog who was struck by a car. (There is no other place to go to in elko for after hours emergency vet). They cared more about a payment plan from over 8 years ago (on my parents account, not even on my name but since we're family they refuse service, even if I put the dog under my girlfriends name) then they did providing emergency care for a dog in need. We drove to SLC and got the care we needed, and that vet has received my payment in full the night of bringing my dog in. Im glad my money went somewhere other then a place who only looks at Dollars when determining wether or not to help an animal in pain. Also I will add now that the owner has responded, I DO NOT HAVE ANY BALANCES WITH YOU GUYS i have never taken an animal here, that is my parents account and completely separate from me but because I'm family your gonna deny service? even when we tried to put him under my girlfriends name you guys still denied service! Nice try though. Your right every business has vendors and employees to pay. And I gladly would have payed in full just like I did where we received care here in SLC. But because your scared you won't get your money you chose to deny us service. Don't try to justify being greedy. Also you did NOT give us any other options closer then SLC you informed us the closest emergency vet was in Salt Lake city.
