How to Save Money at Parver Edward DVM
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.

I had my dog neutered last week and they were wonderful and thorough and nice. I would def recommend this dr. and will use him again. update. Dr Parver retired in January and I tried to bring my dog in for an ear infection within the next 2 days. they were so busy they couldn't give me an appointment for a week which is impossible to let my dog suffer because he needs a medicine. so unfortunately I will have to find another vet.

Old school, honest veterinarian. There are so many doctors in just about every field that will quickly diagnose and then "strongly encourage" the most expensive course of treatment. Not Dr. Parver. I appreciate that allegiance to understanding how costly it is to care for a pet. He does what is right and doesn't try to sell any unnecessary services. He also is a great vet 🙂

Dr. Parver is an excellent and caring veterinarian. I had a guinea pig, Oreo, who lived to be 8 1/2 years old. On several occasions, I brought Oreo in to see Dr. Parver when he was sick and he took the time to treat and help him. He was above and beyond compassionate. He was honest and always tried his best to take care of Oreo and succeeded. Usually guinea pigs live from 5-8 years old and Oreo was 8 1/2. He was a big presence in our family and we loved him so much. Dr. Parver and his staff ALWAYS did whatever they could to help Oreo. Thank you so much for all always taking my call, and scheduling prompt visits to help Oreo. I really appreciate everything you did for Oreo and our family.

Dr. Parver is an experienced and caring veterinarian. But the problem was his assistant lady called "Marta", our pet was abused by her. She was very rude to the pet.. She's impatient! She is definitely not fit for this job.
