How to Save Money at VCA Westmoreland 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.

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.

I cannot praise Dr. Sullivan, Jona, the front desk staff, and everyone else I interacted with enough. My kitty was going through rather rapid kidney disease, and I knew the time was coming. They treated him and I with compassion and went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of. When the time came they were amazing through the whole process. I whole heartedly recommend the team at VCA Westmoreland and will bring all future pets to Dr. Sullivan.

Knowledgeable. Professional. Every experience I've had with my little baby pup has been outstanding and postiive. I can trust them with my baby. We had been going there at least once a month til my pup got all his shots and now we just got him neutered. My boy is a happy, happy boy and I love how everyone there dotes on him and gives him all the love.

Can't say enough good things about the staff at VCA Westmoreland. I recently had to let my beloved kitty go. The level of compassionate care my cat and I received was exemplary. Both Kari and Dr. Sullivan carefully explained diagnostic results and "the procedure" itself and then compassionately explained each step as it was performed and what to expect. I was allowed time with my kitty before and after. Thank you so much!

When my wife and I brought our cat in to VCA we thought we had found a Vet office for life. We were wrong. The first visit went well and our cat seemed better. She had a problem and the Dr took care of it. A few months later she had the same problem so we brought her in again. We didn’t have as good of an outcome. Our Vet was off so it was with a different Vet. We went home and hoped she would get better. Our cat started on a downhill slide. We called and the original Vet was in so we thought we would bring her in again. We were really hoping for a turnaround since we thought we were losing our sweet kitty. It just didn’t happen. The bad part is the Vet didn’t seem to care. Almost throwing hands up in the air saying that’s all I have. That is why the 1star rating. NOT just because our cat didn’t get well there. A few weeks ago our good friend and neighbor recommended a different Vet. We took her in and within a week we have our kitty back. And we are happy again. Three weeks later and we can say we haven’t seen her this well in over a year. All this from a simple fle allergy.

Courtney and Dr Sullivan are amazing! Always so empathetic and helpful with my sweet senior chihuahuas. I truly feel like the staff there treats my dogs as though they were their own.
