How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Boght 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.

My cat needed attention for a non life threatening issue, and they got her in the same day that I called. The staff were respectful and handled my cat really well. We were in and out quickly and the cost was very fair, especially when you know what emergency vets cost. My cat was almost instantly happier once she was treated. Thank you for helping her!

Several years back they were very helpful for our dog but my goodness have they taken a nosedive. Getting through to them is almost impossible. They said they only have two lines and if two people are on calls it will just say “line busy”. It’s 2023… how do you not have call waiting when you have hundreds of clients? The inside is very outdated and dingy looking. My cat went in recently for a massive tumor on her leg that appeared nearly out of nowhere. We saw the vet, said it was most likely cancer but if I wanted to do a fine needle aspirate I can. We did that, test came backI showing no signs of cancer (although it likely still is). I had to call for the results as I had not been called with them. When my cats tumor continued to grow in size, I persistently tried calling to get ahold of the vet to see what I could do to keep her comfortable. Either the vet wasn’t available or the lines were tied up. I kid you not, I called for DAYS without the ability to talk to someone. When I did get ahold of them, I asked the receptionist if I could have the vet call me back because I haven’t been able to get a hold of anyone and they said that my best bet would be to continue to call in until I can get ahold of someone as the vets don’t do call backs because they’re too busy. Are you kidding? I work full time. I don’t have the ability to call in every day multiple times in hopes that I’ll finally be able to talk to the vet while my cats tumor is growing more and more painful by the day. I ended up taking my cat to Cornerstone and had SO much better of an experience. That’s where we will continue our care for all our animals moving forward.

I can never say enough about the care for our pets from all of the kind people working at Boght!! I’ve had dogs for 30+years. I started with them and due to location I went to others and returned after our latest..8yrs now. I don’t normally post but I will never go anywhere else!! Thank you all so much and know how much you are appreciated

They are very good at making sure your pet is taken care of. We have 2 dogs and they are always brought to the clinic for any issues or vaccinations. Over the almost 9 years that we have been going to these clinic and we have had good experience with them. We will continue doing business with them. Thank you.

We came in for an exam with a 6 week old 1.5lb kitten that was abandoned and we took in. She was very scared and overwhelmed and despite the vet seeing that she was scared, decided to scruff her and she hissed and tried to run away. The vet refused to complete any more of an exam on her stating it was not to scare her anymore but then still charged me a full visit fee despite being seen and not actually examined for less than 5 minutes. I called the office the next day and spoke to an office manager who told me they probably would not give a refund despite no exam being completed. I asked for the owner to call me back and they have refused to do so. Would not recommend this place.
