How to Save on Veterinary Costs at VCA Northwest Veterinary Specialists
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.

From the minute I walked in the door, I knew my Gunner was going to be in good hands. The care and empathy the care team showed in my darkest hour having to say goodbye to my boy. The team was absolutely amazing and I can't thank them enough for making my boys final moments as peaceful as possible. They even waited for my friend to drive all the way from Salem to say goodbye. Thank you from the Willis Family

I'm not certain about this clinic. My initial impression created by the receptionist has left me cold. I am frantically trying to figure out what's happening with my 13 yo senior cat and the cold greeting I received at the front desk was more about following procedure and being made to feel unwanted than about actually caring for my cat. We were able to schedule an emergency ultrasound which set me back $1300 total and I was relieved to have a long conversation with Dr. Ben so that salvaged a lot of my fears...but I am forced to wait another three weeks to see a specialist when my cat needs to see someone NOW. Veterinary care in this area is more about appearances and profit than about creating an environment that supports animal care and human concerns. I simply want to give my cat the best possible chance at good health and that seems to be a useless expectation.

Dr. Im and the ENTIRE staff was amazing! We lost our Sphinx but our dog survived. We are very blessed. They are worth every penny! So grateful that they are there. Would recommend them to everyone when your own vet won't get them in. LOVE YOU AND THANK YOU!!!

Where do I even begin. Y'all are the best. I knew it was going to be expensive but they charged me a lot less than they could have and gave me a medication from the donation box. Their tech was the absolute best with me and my shy girl, the vet's assistant was kind and talked over all the details with me, and the vet was fun and generous with their services. Thank you guys so much for helping a stressful time go a lot smoother. I loved VCA out in Oklahoma too, glad to see NW locations living up.

Best staff ever and Dr. Michelle Taylor is one of the most patient, compassionate and caring Vets. Been seeing our boy Beau since he was diagnosed with a juvenile cataract at 1.5 years old.
