How to Save Money at Gravenhurst Spay and Neuter Clinic

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.

Getting 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.

They were VERY accommodating with a short notice semi emergency visit as my own vet wasn't available, and none of the emergency walk in clinics had an opening..... without going to Uxbridge and signing my life away. They treated Buddy with great care and concern, got him looked after immediately and he is doing wonderfully now!! And it actually cost us less than we were afraid of :) Thank you team!

I called the Animal Hospital on May 27, 2020 concerned about my fur baby. As you know this is during Covid. Now we weren’t current patients of this hospital as we had been self isolating since March break up at our cottage. As we both work at a high school and are now working from home. I had already called some other vet clinics but they were not taking new patients due to covid. The lady that answered the phone was incredible. She told me they had no appointments available today. But they did have a video telehealth through Baywood Animal Hospitals that they offered. It was a $50.00 charge and I would be talking to a vet. She explained that if the doctor still wanted my dog to be seen in the office then that $50.00 would be credited back on our visit. She sent me an email. I created an account, typed out my concerns. Added photos of her wound. chose an available time which was only 15 minutes away. Dr. Greg McWatt was compassionate, knowledgeable, caring and down to earth. He diagnosed what was wrong and called in her prescription. He didn’t try to up sell any additional tests. By the time we drove into town to pickup the prescription and cone of shame it was ready. I call the animal hospital when we got there. They took payment over the phone. Placed our package outside. We talked to vet tech while maintaining the six feet for social distancing. She explained the dosages. answered our questions. And was super friendly. I could not recommend this clinic highly enough.

This is the best veterinarian office I have ever dealt with. They really, truly and honestly care about the animals they are working with. They are compassionate, honest, and very hard working. I cannot thank them enough for going above and beyond for my animals, especially in a crisis. And as an added bonus, all the staff are really pleasant to deal with.
