How to Save on Veterinary Costs at The Animal Hospital
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.

I can’t say enough about this place and the fantastic staff. Getting my first dog during a pandemic has been a huge challenge and the staff here has fielded many questions and taught me a ton even before I was able to come in and watch the visits. Although he has a primary veterinarian here, my Great Dane puppy has seen every vet at this clinic for one thing or another. All of them have been knowledgeable and pleasant to work with. Everyone I have met on staff has been kind and helpful. And to top of all off, the location is peaceful and beautiful.

Caring and Compassionate! Last week we had to make the hard decision to euthanize our loving old dog Tipsy because of many end-of-life health issues. We made an appointment, and when we got there, I called inside to say that we wanted to wait outside until the last minute to bring him in because he always became anxious and unnerved in the waiting room, and we wanted his last moments to not be stressful. To our surprise, they offered to do the procedure outside, and brought out a blanket, some water and tissues. For 20 more minutes, Tipsy was able to bask in the sun (as he always liked to do) and enjoy every last minute! Dr. Melinda and Dr. Lexi, as well as all the vet techs, are wonderful, compassionate and caring, and we are grateful for having them for our dog's care.

Dr. Lexi has been our cats’ veterinarian for 13 years. Dr. Lexi is a gifted vet with expertise and compassion who always takes her time to discuss her observations and methodological treatment options. She answers questions with patience and thoroughness. Once when we brought our cat in for scheduled surgery, Dr. Lexi intuited that something was wrong and that he should not have the operation that day. Instead he was tested further via ultrasound which indicated the need for a biopsy. He then underwent one surgery to cure the original issue and to have the biopsy instead of experiencing the trauma of TWO invasive surgeries/recuperations. This also allowed cancer treatment to begin at a very early stage. - Every vet technician has been caring and accommodating. In particular, Maureen has provided compassionate support and knowledgeably answered our questions for the past 13 years. - The office staff is friendly and helpful, the office is clean, and appointments are timely. We highly recommend this very caring practice!
