How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Willow Creek Veterinary Service

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.

Dr. Gebhart saved our horse’s life. After a week at the emergency vet hospital with no improvement and no diagnosis, we were able to have him released to Dr. Gebhart’s care at home. She is attentive, communicative and most of all, collaborative. She worked closely with our trainer who has the most knowledge about our horse’s quirks and what is normal and what is not. Our family can never thank Dr. Gebhart enough for her tireless work to bring our boy back to health.

I have used this vet for my 2 horses for a few years now. My one horse wouldn't get up after trying everything I could. I called the vet to have them come look at her. I called with my concerns to be told I would get a call back.... an hour later after her being outside. I finally got a call (also after multiple attempts to cal again) they called to tell me the doctor had no time to come out today..... so I was suppose to let my horse suffer? She had been done for hours at this point. This to me was so wrong. I get you had clients already scheduled. But emergency to me should be priority. Unfortunately she suffered longer than she should have to. I will never be using them for vet services ever again.

I am so glad Dr. G and team are part of my care team. They are all easy to communicate with through email, calls and texts. Very responsive to emergencies and the care is unbeatable. Dr. Gebhart is compassionate but a straight shooter and develops a relationship with all the kids. I am always grateful for the follow up calls after a sick visit and couldn't recommend the practice more.

UPDATE 3/28/24. We had just brought our 18 year old cat in for an emergency appointment and even though Dr. Gerhart was extremely busy she was able to examine our cat and have her picked up at a decent time. This office has been absolutely amazing with all four of our cats. Thank you Dr. G. and alll of the Willowcreek staff. ORIGINAL POST:The staff here are always friendly and helpful. Never had a long wait for my appointment.
