How to Save on Veterinary Costs at The Pet Care Clinic

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.

I love this pet clinic, all the employees are incredible, very attentive, they are very patient and explain the entire procedure. I definitely recommend this pet clinic and everything at an excellent price. If you want a good service and at a good price, you have to go to this pet clinic.

We would like to just thank all of our wonderful clients for all the awesome reviews posted here. We do try our very best to accommodate every pet in need. We'd also like to say that we are extremely busy & cannot take in emergency visits. That is why we have emergency clinics. WE ARE NOT AN EMERGENCY CLINIC. This is true of all regular animal clinics. It is not fair to post a negative review simply because we could not fit you in on that day. Although emergency clinics are costly and some people cannot afford the fees, this is not OUR fault. It is also not fair to say we are not compassionate. We are very compassionate, but we are also human & cannot physically or mentally work around the clock. It also is not fair to our scheduled appointments that may have to wait while we take in emergencies. When we cannot get you in, we always hand out a list of emergency clinics/animal hospitals in the area that may be able to get a sick pet in. We love what we do...it is truly our passion, but there are only so many hours in a day that we can help. If we have an opening, of course we will accommodate, but that is not always the case. We are very sorry but we are doing the very best we can. To those of you that left good reviews/comments....we are truly grateful & appreciate your patience and understanding.

My cat was very sick and she needed antibiotics so I waited for the pet care clinic to open. I’m panicking making sure my baby is OK. I waited for the receptionist or whoever she was to open. I patiently gave her at least 10 minutes before I try to open the door to see if I can get my cat to be seen. She finally came out and told me it’s by appointment only she gave me some paper with some other veterinarians that were not goal of giving an appointments She was very rude, unethical and lack empathy. I was the first one there she could’ve squeezed me in, but she assumed I was, not with funds. Basically she thought I was broke. She kept explaining to the other vets aren’t that expensive this and that I sat in my car and cried for about five minutes I had to pray. I was in tears all the way home then on my Instagram feed I seen Dutch an online veterinarian service that that was very compassionate, immediate response. The appointment was online, and the veterinarian was definitely empathetic, loving and caring and understanding and very knowledgeable that made my day from the awful time. I waited for them to open at the the pet care clinic, so I’m glad my London girl, my for baby got her medicine today, regardless of the day of the pet care clinic started off with …..I recommend to go online veterinarian clinic Dutch before going here ……..

The surgery procedure is less than desirable. I know the staffing is low but a quick text to say your best friend made it through surgery fine would be a lot better than waiting for a call at 8PM or not at all, dropping off your four legged child for surgery waiting 13 hours for any news is horrible. They are nice people but that procedure for procedures sux.

Wonderful staff and Dr. I called last minute for our sick dog that needed to be put down. We live 30min from Hazleton and they gave us the last appointment. They provided us support at this difficult time.
