How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Fern Hill Veterinary Care

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.

So kind and helpful! Every staff member I've interacted with so far has been wonderful. I was very impressed with how they handled my "spicy" cat - firmly but very gently and comforting. He was so relaxed under the conscious sedation that he looked like he was getting a massage!

I am a dog trainer in Portland, OR. Fernhill has been the place that l, not only take my dogs, have also taken clients dogs in the event of urgent care when staying with me for training. In fact one of my clients switched over to Fernhill from their regular vets after an exemplary visit. Kind, compassionate and knowledgeable!

We moved this OR just at the start of the pandemic and with three dogs, we were almost unable to find a vet. Ended up at a nice one but it was a bit of a drive for us. So when we saw Fern Hill so close to home we decided to check it out. I love this vet. They are amazing and have helped us with dog problems the other vet simply acknowledged and ignored. They put our 14 year old lab mix on Adequan and that dog just walked 3 miles with us without seeming in pain, happily, interested in her surroundings. She's certainly stiff and has some age related stuff but gosh I've never seen a dog that old want to play even. Very happy with the results there, wish we'd been aware of the medication for our last senior pup and they've told us there another even better medication for canine osteoarthritis coming this summer. We just got a dental for our Boston, that went great. They communicate so well and provide wonderful information. Truly truly appreciate their expertise. I did have one vet awhile back tell me "if we have frequent flier miles, you'd have a free flight by now". We are at the vet a lot and appreciate Fern Hill more every time we're there.

Dr Alicia Zambelli and her team, are an absolute pleasure to visit. Not only are they all extremely professional, but also caring and genuine. They don't offer their own insurance (which I love), so your time there isn't being "sold" and "upselling". It's spent giving your pets the respect and attention they deserve. They are only a 30 minute drive from Mid City, Portland! So if you're in the city and looking for somewhere that you can trust with your furry friends, go to Fern Hill Verterinary in Happy Valley! 10/10. Would give more than 5 stars, but that's all I'm permitted

From front desk staff, technicians to the vets- I’m blown away by their kindness and knowledgeable care. My dog Birdy and I thank you for always making us feel grounded in times of high stress. We will definitely come in to for a happy visit soon.
