How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Southern Hills 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

I've been to many vets over the years, and the staff at Southern Hills Animal Hospital is the most caring and attentive I've ever met. Dr. Blakesley and Dr. Moore have been caring for my fur babies for a few years now and I wish they'd been my vet since the day my kitties were born. The clinic calls and texts with updates and just to check in ony girls. I can't give enough praise to the women out front, Emma, Hanna and others, as well as Jill, one of their vet techs. They actually take the time to learn your name and your pet's name. Amazing!

First time at this animal hospital for my rabbits' check up and vaccinations. The staff was friendly and helpful, plus the vet was informative and took the time to talk about my rabbits' health. Thanks for taking great care of my rabbits.

I bring my bunny Duncan here and have had great experiences so I decided to bring my cat Tilly here as well because I had some bad experiences at a cat only vet. I’m SO glad I did! Dr. Blakesley and Dr. Moore are terrific vets! They’re both down to earth, patient, and never pushy or manipulative. All the vet techs I’ve seen have been awesome, and I’m especially grateful for Jill (I hope I remembered her name correctly) trying to keep Tilly calm during her exam today. The front desk girls are also super nice and ready to answer any questions over the phone. I wish I had found this vet sooner, but better late than never as they say! Thank you for caring for my babies!

I am eternally grateful for the exceptional expertise of Dr. Sara Blakesley, as she is the best veterinarian I have ever had the pleasure of encountering! From the moment I stepped foot into her practice, I was greeted by a sense of reassurance, kindness and confidence from her and her teams undeniable expertise. 4 months ago I originally took my bunny Sunset to another vet who gave me all the wrong information (and never checked for a microchip). Dr. Blakesley gave me the precise sex and age of my rabbit, even before the microchip information corroborated her findings. It was evident that both her and her team genuinely cared for the well-being of my baby, going above and beyond to provide personalized advice and guidance to ensure that my rabbit's health journey continues on the right path. Without a shadow of a doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Sara Blakesley to anyone seeking the absolute pinnacle of veterinary care for their baby (and especially for their bunny). You can really tell when someone truly loves and cares for animals and that’s how I felt around Dr. Blakesley. My baby has an issue going on with her eye and Dr. Blakesley made sure to take her time explaining everything through diagrams and photos online. I’ve never felt more comfortable with a vet. I will forever be going to Dr. Blakesley and will recommend her as the best veterinarian!! If you have a bunny this is the place you want to go.

Our sweet Sissy dog had 10 teeth pulled, poor thing. She has recovered so much quicker under Dr. Blakesly's oversight than our previous vets'. They kept us informed, pricing was reasonable and staff was very helpful. We'll be taking both our dogs to Dr Blakesly from now on.
