How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Blue Mountain 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.

We were in search of a new vet after some very bad experiences with another vet in the area. We couldn’t be more happy with the team at Blue Mountain Vet. They are a breath of fresh air compared to the service we were used to, and show genuine care for both you and your pets. All three of our animals have now switched over and we feel much safer and at ease with them in their care!

I've taken my two dogs to Blue Mountain Vet Care for the last year and several months (I believe it was pretty directly after they opened their doors). The staff and doctors are all very personable and good with my shelties (both 11 years old). I am pleased with their service and will continue to have my dogs health needs supported by their team.

I have only been here once so far, but I already love it!!!! Dr. Nelson and her staff LISTENED. Just that alone seems so priceless these days. I brought my girl dog here because we went to a few other vets regarding her "accidents" she was having in her sleep. I was given really basic advice like, "limit how much she drinks before bed" or "this is what happens when puppies are spayed too young." No form of relief was given for our dog or for us. This continued for well over a year. We spent so much money on laundry detergent, waterproof mattress pads and blankets, etc. Dr. Nelson performed all of the necessary tests and x-rays to make sure there wasn't something more significant going on first. When she passed all of those, she prescribed her medication to see how it would go. I'm happy to report that she hasn't had any accidents in the past few weeks! Our dog no longer feels ashamed (yes, she did) and I don't have to wash blankets every morning. HOORAY!!!!! Thank you Dr. Nelson and staff! I am a big big fan of this practice and consider Daizy a lifetime fan too.

Wow. I just have nothing but good things to say about this office. My cat was injured and had some infected puncture wounds. I have never brought an animal here but when I called to ask if the could see him they made the time for me. I was seen almost immediately after arriving and was helped by the kindest staff. From the front desk to the vet assistant and the veterinarian. Everyone was kind and really appeared to care about my cat and getting him fixed up. I'm just so thankful to this office for helping my cat and doing so in the most caring way. When I went to pay the bill I was not expecting to see the number I saw. I assumed it would be such a higher bill for being an emergency situation. But it was not and was completely reasonable and broken down for me so I knew exactly what I was paying for. If I could give 100 stars I would! I will 100% be a returning client for any and all future pets! Thank you Blue Mountain Vet you are AMAZING!!!

I came here because it was so close to where I live. I stayed here because the staff makes u feel welcome and my pup loves the Vet. The location is great, lots of parking, the place is new and very clean. Dr Nelson is very good and takes her time explaining things. Definitely recommend this place.
