How to Save Money at PetVet Vaccination Clinic
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.

Yesterday, I used Pet Vet for the 4th and last time. The experience was terrible. In the past, it was first come, first served where all services were provided efficiently and the line moved along quickly. This time it was first pre-registered, first served no matter when you arrived. The Pet Vet team arrived 1 1/2 hours late and once there it was chaotic, unorganized. with long wait times. The Vet and assistant had long pauses between clients - a total misuse of their time. The vet came from a clinic in another state and the other 3 came from a clinic hours away. So no wonder they were late - the pre-registration virtual line process was very time consuming. It made them late for us and even later for the location after us. The scheduling of your team's locations is abysmal. Three team members were great but the 4th yelled at us alot and was just miserable. The time from my arrival to being served was 3 hours. The most I ever spent in the past was 1 hour. Giving 1 star only because I can't give a negative rating.

Long line but excellent service. Rabies shot was delivered quickly and without incident. Thank you.

Dr. Rebekah Kane and her team provided excellent care to our 14 year-old cat Marley during his diagnostic visit. After several disappointing visits with local full service vets in the Utica area, we decided to make the 45 mile drive to PetVet in New Amsterdam before taking Marley to Cornell 's Vet School's clinic. At PetVet, for $105, Marley received a full checkup, blood and stool analysis, and superb follow-up by Dr. Kane regarding his overall health, condition of the chronic kidney issue she detected, and detailed recommendations for changes to his diet. Of the last 4 vets Marley has seen, Dr. Kane was the only one who did not urge us to have his teeth removed, pointing out that the redness of his gums was not an infection, rather that his gums had grown to protect him from any disease entering through his of dental cavities. Marley will be having periodic health visit at PetVet New Amsterdam with Dr. Kane and her team. It would be great if PetVet would open a Wellness Center in Utica. Judging from reviews, we're not the only pet owners in the area who are unhappy with our local full service vet practices.

Brought 3 dogs in at once. The staff was great very informative and patient. Will def be going back Also want to mention that they were ALL pit bulls and we were never asked to leave. There were a lot of other dogs there as unfortunately they are only open 2 days. There was a couple of dogs that were really aggressive towards the other dogs that were there and were asked to wait outside or to go for a walk while they wait but they were asked very nicely and were seen as soon as it was their turn.

We truly love bringing our two long-haired Chihuahuas to PetVet. 🐾 🐾 The staff and vets are always extremely knowledgeable, caring, friendly, and loving to our fur babies. It’s also a plus, that they are close to home and reasonably affordable! Unlike, bringing our dogs to the veterinarian’s office, which always seem to wallop us with an outrageous bill afterwards, and push extras. You get what you want and need for your pets at PetVet. I truly hope our Amsterdam NY PetVet remains open and doesn’t close.🙏🏻
