How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Chapel Hill Veterinary Clinic

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

Took our Kirby to see the vet for the first time (with us). They were great with the parking lot administration. They took Kirby in for a check up and his shot. Very professional and friendly. Still awesome! New Kirby pic, 4 yrs now.

My family and I took our 18 year old dog to this veterinary clinic. Cuddles (our dog) was in bad shape, and our whole family knew it was his time. After we had to put cuddles down at 12:52p.m. and during the grieving process of saying goodbye, one of the veterinary staff (Amy) continued to enter the room every 2-3 minutes which made the whole family feel rushed. Following his death, Amy took cuddles (who was 14lbs) and dragged his deceased body on the ground/floor to the back room but stopped at the door and said “I’ll just wait till you guys leave” as she was holding his head and his body was still being dragged on the ground. This devastated the entire family seeing that because 3/5 family members mentioned that they could pick cuddles up. Would you want to take your family pet here knowing they don’t have respect for your family? If I would have seen this, I would never have taken cuddles here. Nobody deserves to have their body dragged and nobody should see that either.

they have been seeing my dog for over two years now, my pup has allergy issues which has increase our expenses quite a bit, which it has led me to research some of the meds he is prescribed, finding out that the mark up of these meds at this office is significant. Took him to another appointment and requested paper prescription to find out that they charge you $33.00 per medication! and when asked to provide an electronic copy of it, they asked for another fee even though I just paid the fee for the paper prescription! the vet gave him 4 medications and they wanted $33* 4! If this is not a money grab at the expense of the health of an animal, I don't know what it is! very disappointed and I will not be back EVER

I had a few scheduling issues which ended up delaying my dog's surgery and she went into heat before her spay surgery. I was a little upset about this but when I re scheduled after her cycle, without asking, they charged me the same amount as it would have been the first time. When I first came in to drop her off, the bill was higher but at pickup, they had remembered me and my dog and reduced the price. I found that very nice of them to do that and felt good leaving there knowing that they had remembered me and my dog and not just treated us like a "number". I would recommend them for sure. I am not giving 5 stars only because of the scheduling mix up months ago, other then that, they are super nice and treat animals well.
