How to Save Money at Woodman Drive Animal Hospital
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.

The absolute best veterinarians office ever. I've been going there since my parents brought my first dog to me when I was 5. It was a very long time, and I would never go anywhere else. Dr. Middlebrooks is hands down, very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the many, many years of service you've given to my family and all of our pets.

We've been going here for our dog(s) since 2007 when we moved to the Dayton Area from Columbus. The doctors and staff are always amazing. Very good with all of our dog(s), polite, respectful, and in a good mood. No high pressure selling of care for your pet that you don't need. Able to work us in when we had several emergencies over the years, even back when they had Saturday hours. Prices are beyond fair in our opinion compared to others we've heard about. Could go on and on about how nice and caring this practice is, but I invite you to try it for yourself. You will not regret it. We didn't, not once.

They have been taking care of Stewie since he was a rescue baby in 2005. They got him to his final resting place when he crossed over the rainbow bridge August 15th. They have always had compassion and the best service! If I decide to get another fur baby, we will definitely be back here! My family wants to say to the entire staff, just thank you so much!
