How to Save Money at Coquille 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.

This was absolutely everything I thought it would be! The vet was amazing and did the most thorough physical exam on my dogs I think they have ever had! I can’t express how happy I am with everything! They let me know upfront what to expect with the cost, right down to the test we needed done! I loved knowing what I was looking at to pay before I even arrived! Thank y’all for taking such good care of us and our furbabies! 🐾❤️

Excellent old school vet, our dog has had a issue off and in for couple years. Two vets in CA couldn't figure it out charged us 1300 and 1700 for visits. Never figuring out problem. This vet had it figured out in 15 minutes. No trauma to our dog no overnight visit. No crazy amount either. Exceptional vet...

Callie--Although I had never been there before, they allowed me to bring in my sweet Callie kitty on Christmas eve day for urgent care. Unfortunately she was unable to be saved. Dr. said, "this cat is dying. We can take heroic measures if you want but she isn't going to last very long and she won't get well." My broken heart shattered at the news yet my logical side knew he was right and I needed that confirmation. Dr. and his staff were kind and considerate giving me time to say goodbye to my baby girl even though they were busy and trying to close for the holiday. They offered Kleenex and privacy as well. When it was time, Dr. explained everything before he did it and gave me the option to leave the room or stay. I stayed with Callie until she was gone and then went up front to pay the bill while the staff prepared Callie's body for me to take home. They wrapped her in plastic, then in a white pillowcase tied with a pink ribbon. Dr. carried her to the car for me and expressed his condolences as he handed her to me. Although this was a heartbreaking experience for me, I will be back with my other kitty for his routine care. Any Dr. and staff who can be unhurried and compassionate on a busy holiday when a patient/owner are struggling has my vote of confidence. Update Dexter-- Dr. O'donovan has saved Dexter twice now. In 2018 Dexter went into renal failure. His skin had started turning yellow. Usually by that time they can't be saved. By some miracle oral steroids and subcutaneous fluids for about a week got my kitty on the road to recovery. Dexter--2023 Dexter had become lethargic and wanting to lay in his litter box. He's never done that before. I took Dexter in for bloodwork, which only showed slight anemia (darned fleas) but upon physical examination Dr. and assistant found a lump that I hadn't noticed. It turned out to be a big abscess which was removed yesterday in surgery. After a difficult night last night Dexter was still unable to keep anything down so I couldn't give him his oral antibiotic and pain meds. I took Dexter back in and they gave him subcutaneous fluids and injections of anti nausea, antibiotic and pain meds. About an hour after we had returned home Dexter had some water and some crunchy food. He kept it all down! I am so appreciative of Dr. O'donovan and his staff. Everyone has been incredibly kind and helpful. Thank you!

AMAZING PLACE!!! Thanks to the awesome and caring staff my 2 kitties quality of life couldn't be better! Originally going in both cats are older (14 and 17) but experiencing separate issues which terrified me because of their age. After our visit both were set up with a plan to maintain the issues and are doing great! It turned out one cat is diabetic and the other is hyper sensitive to fleas which caused the seizures.

Dr. O’Donnell was very good with my cat. He was quick and gentle with her, and he was able to see her the day after I called.
