How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Progressive 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

The staff at Progressive Animal Hospital care as much about our pets as we do. The staff are energetic, overtly friendly toward the pets and very patient. They act as a cohesive team with concern and empathy .Dr. Frishman is advanced in his veterinarian treatments and the receptionist is extremely cordial and well informed on animal care. We have been clients for over a decade .

I had previously posted a review for PAH, & it somehow disappeared. Everything happens for a reason! Hebrew word for this is "Bashert ". We had 3 budgies who were being seen by a wonderful Vet in Poughkeepsie. She was amazing when we had to put our oldest Budgie to rest last December. In September I received a health diagnosis that changed my life. My husband doesn't drive. So we had to find a Vet close to home. There aren't many animal hospitals that work with exotic pets. I was fortunate to find PAH which is only 15 minutes from our home. From my first call to this office back in October 2022, I knew we would be in good hands. Dina was not only professional, also kind, patient and compassionate. When I explained I was immune compromised & still wearing a mask, I arrived for our birds first visit, and EVERYONE was respectfully wearing masks. Dr. Frishman, Deborah & entire staff were amazing. Deborah after hearing my testimony, removed a "healing " bracelet from her wrist, and gave it to me. WOW!!! Unbelievable! Then my husband became ill. Doctors advised us we needed to re-home our bird babies. I have a list of over 50 Vets, shelters, rescues, & social media posts that I sent emails, flyers & calls to. Speak of due diligence! NOTHING! I began to feel hopeless. When I brought our boys to Dr. Frishman at the end of June, I shared my frustration and desperation. He said he'd discuss possibly taking our bird boys . He would discuss with Deborah, and rest of PAH staff, & asked me to call them after 4th of July. To be honest I wasn't expecting the news I received when I called. The answer was a YES! I know in my heart that we received all those no's, because God had a big YES waiting for us. Yesterday I brought Shalom & Shaina to their new home. Usually when we've had an appointment, we were in & out. However, yesterday I was there for a while setting up their new cage in the office reception area. I had an opportunity to chat with other pet parents who felt as blessed as I do for having such a wonderful, Professional, caring practice for our pet families. I witnessed the interaction between both the staff, pet owners, as well as staff with their patients. Each pet that arrived while I was there was treated respectfully both when owners were present as well as after they left their pet behind for treatment. After I left PAH, I sat in my car & cried. My heart was broken and at the same time filled with gratitude and joy! I still haven't been able to go into their room, & that's o.k. Dr. Frishman, Deborah, Dina & staff... words can never fully express our heartfelt gratitude for this amazingly wonderful act of kindness! And Chris, you did a great job assembling cage. Thank you! If you are looking for a truly caring practice, with a Doctor that's honest, and who truly cares for the welfare of not only your pet, but for you as well, look no further! And when you do visit, we hope you enjoy Shalom & Shaina. We are forever grateful!!
