How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Animal Health Center

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.

I've had Dr Johnson as a vet for years, starting with my cat, then my Yorkie Max and now my Shih Tzu Gi Gi. He recently raised his office visit from $59 to$61, not bad. His receptionist June, is awesome. He also has boarding available which I use.i highly recommend him for your pets

Dr. Johnson is an amazing vet! He has treated the animals I have brought to him the way I would want someone to treat a family member in the hospital. I brought him my Guinea Pig Pat that was having a tough time after being neutered and he came in on an off day and looked after Pat and made sure to start him an antibiotics within an hour of calling him. And he didn't charge me a single dollar for the emergency care! I couldn't believe it, when I asked how much it would cost to leave him overnight he said' "I'm not worried about that, I'm just worried about Pat right now." I thought that meant I would be paying a ton but he literally meant he didn't care about the money but just making sure Pat was okay. I have moved to several states due to work and he is the first vet I have had in a years that really cares for animals above profit. Easiest 5 star review I have given!

Worst vet ever I met (Johnson). I was treated very badly. I’m a different race with an accent. Very rude and aggressive person. His office is very smelly. Gave me a lecture because I wasn’t replying to his invitation advertisement. It looks like he was very upset that I don’t come running to him as soon as he sends his invitation ads. Told me that it costs him money and I couldn’t even bother to call him back and let him know to stop sending me his ads so he wouldn’t loose money on postcards. Save your energy and go somewhere else. Also started paraphrasing and putting words in my mouth and writing it to my pet’s papers. Doesn’t worse your time at all.

Dr. Johnson is truly one of a kind. He has qualities that every single other veterinarian lacks; compassion, caring, sympathetic, trustworthy just to name a few. If only all veterinarians were like him the world would be a better place. Thank you for all you have done for our family Dr. !!
