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

Always had great service here, we went for puppy shots, spay, routine care, and an emergency. We started bringing our dog here as soon as we brought her home and had great experiences. The vets here give great practical and economical recommendations, and were even very helpful when we had a seizure scare with her, getting her in he same day and charging very competitive prices for a last minute visit. The fixed prices are reasonable, the vets are personable, and our dog loved everyone who worked there. If we hadn't moved we definetly would still be patients.

Do not go here! They do not care about your animals and are just there for the money! They will charge $30 just to write 1 prescription if you choose to get it somewhere else. They also will charge you for emergency visit when they call you to come in early because THEY had cancelation that they want filled. When I told them I would not come and pay emergency fee and keep my other appt, they told me I was rude and to find another vet. No worries, I will do that!!! Their reply is not entirely true. They feel I was rude when I laughed and said no that I did not feel I should pay emergency charge to fill their schedule. I had an appt in 3 days. They also say its against "policy" to give my new vet my records. Now I have to go back in there to get them. Maybe some miscommunication, but Ms Sarah, you yourself aren't very nice.

You guys didn't refer me to anyone, you told me it would be a waste of time and I should euthanize him. To give you an update he did live an additional two years thanks to MVCC!

They were helpful on the phone until I went to make the appointment. I had 2 days to go til payday and needed to have an appointment to euthanize my cat. After the heartwrenching chat we had they told me they couldn't even make an appointment for me until I paid for the visit and couldn't guarantee an appointment when I got paid. Money was more important than me or my pet. Disappointed to say the least 😕

UPDATE: NO ONE EVER CONTACTED ME. THEY NEVER RESPONDED AND IT SEEMS THAT THEY REMOVED THE INFORMATION I WAS LOOKING FOR. After reading their responses to others, I have decided NOT to use this vet for my beautiful Medici cat. I am going to try a vet whose office is outside of Rome. I have lowered my rating because of Adirondack's non-responsiveness to me and their attitude towards others. Ok, back to the review in posted when I still had hope. Certainly they must be very busy to not respond, and very stressed to post such snarky reviews to others. -----------'--- I had posted a review, and someone responded to it...but I cannot find the response now. I was given a name of someone to ask for when I call, but I have forgotten the name. Would you please let me know again who i should ask for? My elderly cat, Medici, was treated at a specialty hospital with radioactive iodine for her thyroid a few years ago. I have heard good things from a friend about Adirondack Veterinary Service. I would really like to have her blood tested to make sure she is still doing well. I would ask her previous vets to send her records. She also needs her shots updated. Please let me know who to talk to, as the first time I called, the man who answered said that you are not accepting new patients, and he was in a hurry, so I was not even able to put Medici on a waiting list. I'm going to attach a photo of Medici here...please let me know who to ask for when I call again. Thank you.
