How to Save on Veterinary Costs at BluePearl Pet Hospital
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

Dr Lisa and the staff at BluePearl pet hospital are the absolute best. The facility is clean and they really take care of your pet like it’s one of their own. When I was there it was one of the hardest days of my life, but the staff was so sweet and accommodating which made it easier. They even give you hugs if you need one. I would 100% recommend taking your pet here for the best care ever. 💓

Our lil 10 yr old Irish Wolfie mix, Killian Baine, was diagnosed with Carcinoma bone cancer in his front right wrist in October of 2023. Our vet told us our best bet to stop it from progressing quickly was to remove his leg. One of THE hardest decisions we have ever had to make for any of our fur babies. This also came after he had already gone through double knee surgery one year prior at Ebensburg Animal Hospital, which our baby recovered from amazingly. So when we got this news it broke our hearts to pieces, how could this be happening to the sweetest boy...now he has to become a Tripawd too! Plus the fact he would need to under go 6 months of Chemotherapy! Blue Pearl's surgical center did an amazing job with the surgery and aftercare. Killian is absolutely an amazing Tripawd. He still does EVERYTHING he did before! Including swimming, hiking, zoomies, climbing up or down stairs and his favorite... digging new holes to hide in. He's still our crazy wild Wolfie! Most of that is because of the cancer team at Blue Pearl and Killian's wonderful Oncologist Dr. Erfourth. You can see the compassion and care that they give to our baby and to us because they know our doggies are truly our babies and we will do whatever it takes for them to live full, happy, healthy lives because we love them unconditionally just as they love us. Killian went through Chemo like a champ. It has now been almost 1 year since diagnosis and Killian is doing absolutely amazing. If it wasn't for Dr. Erfourth and the Oncology team we may have already lost this precious boy. They keep you updated every step of the way and give you such hope from the very beginning. Killian is truly the sweetest lil entity and is such an empath. If he even thinks you are hurting, hears you crying, or knows you're sick, he immediately runs to your side to take care of you and love you with the purest love there is... the love from your fur baby! Everyone at Blue Pearl sees this in him. They just love him and are pulling for him every moment. They truly care and love the animals they care for. I will never be able to thank all of them enough for giving us the gift of keeping our Killy alive and strong. We will be thankful to them forever for giving us whatever extra time we have with Killian and we pray everyday that Killian stays healthy and is here with us for a long time to come. Killian thanks you too!! Our sincerest thanks to all of you who work so hard to care for these innocent, loving, angels on Earth! God Bless you all! ~~Jessica & Adam W.~~

They saved my dogs life in the middle of the night. Called at 11 at night with a sick dog and they saw him as soon as we got there and performed life saving surgery on my German Shepherd for bloat. They called me early in the morning letting me know he made it through surgery. They monitored him for a day and took good care of him. I’m so glad they were able to see him because the other two emergency vets I contacted were at capacity or not equipped for surgery. So thankful for blue pearl seeing him or my boy wouldn’t have made it! He’s home now doing well and getting rest!

I couldn't be happier or more comfortable with my first visit at Blue Pearl. From the first, prompt, call from them to make the appointment to the appointment itself my Lucy and I were welcomed and treated with patience, kindness and caring. Every procedure was explained and discussed and we were well informed on all the issues. They treated my senior doggo with great care and kindness. We are very happy and they even got us in early -Will be back Diana and Lucy

Dr. Erfourth and his team have genuinely saved our dog’s life after her cancer came back. Another vet at a different practice told us there were no treatment options when we decided to get a second opinion through PVSEC. Thanks to Dr. Erfourth, she’s completely symptom free from both the anti-cancer medication and cancer thanks to his care and attention to detail. You would never know she’s 12 years old with a few dormant tumors in her lungs! Thank you so much for everything you’ve done to save our girl and give us a few more great years together.
