How to Save on Veterinary Costs at East York Veterinary Center

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

In looking for a place to board our newly adopted kitty this summer while away on vacation, we also saw the need to get our baby plugged in with a vet as well. East York Vet has an excellent boarding environment, with stipulations on boarding animals requiring proof of vaccinations etc which safeguards everyone's pets. The location itself is so well thought out with clearly great care and concern given to the comfort and excellent care of all animals. The front desk staff are great, as are the technicians and the veterinarians. I think our Snuggles has found a "go to" place! We did go on vacation and boarded our Snuggles for 11 days. The staff were very responsive when I called to check on our baby, at one point even sent me pictures, because the first day she was hiding and not eating or drinking. That is fairly common in a strange environment for many pets. Snuggles bounced back and I believe won the hearts of those caring for her. We were very pleased with how everything went. We already booked our reservation for 2025 to board Snuggles.

First trip to the vet in 15 years with our new Pitty pup and it was a pleasant experience. Were we seen promptly and they Vet Tech was extremely excited to see our pup and loved his name. The Doc was great, pleasant and was more than happy to answer our questions. Appreciate the enjoyable visit!

Best experience at East York Veterinary Center. All of the staff has been amazing and I know I can trust them. They love your fur-baby like you love them. My cat had cancer and I took her off the streets 17 yrs ago. She passed and Dr. Nelson was so caring, kind and understanding along with the nurse we had, Mike. They both, plus other staff were very thoughtful during this process. I am forever grateful! Now we have 3 new kittens that we rescued and we still have the same kindness. We feel very comfortable there at the facility and the staff make you feel at home. Honestly they go above and beyond for your fur-baby and you. You can tell they all love what they do. I couldn't suggest a better loving and caring place for your fur-baby.

This clinic is so great. Love that they have a little area in the waiting room for cats only. The waiting area is giant which makes things so much better. Each room looks like a little house on the outside. Adorable. The exam rooms are twice as large as the ones weve been I'm previously at other places. The huge list of doctors makes it easy to get in for an appointment at YOUR CONVENIENCE. Our last clinic would make up wait WEEKS. Never had open appointmens set apart for emergencies etc. This veterinary hospital has evening and weekend appointments which we appreciate more then anything. Every doctor that we've seen her has been helpful. Kind, sweet with our babies and so helpful. The only thing I wish this place would do, is RX order approval through third party like Chewy, Alovet etc. I used to work at a vet clinic and I know that it's annoying for the front of house staff, but on the customer end makes things so much easier. Other then that small thing, we are so happy with this place. We look forward to adopting future dogs and cats because we know we have the best vet practice in town behind us when we do. Thank you! You give us the piece of mind needed to own multiple fur butts at once ♡
