How to Save Money at Animal Emergency Clinic
Schedule Regular Vet Visits
One of the best ways to save on vet bills is to prevent expensive health issues before they develop. By scheduling regular wellness checkups, your vet can detect health issues early, helping you to avoid costly treatments and surgeries down the road.
Price Shop for Pet Prescriptions
Oftentimes our fur babies are prescribed human drugs off-label. Your vet is apt to charge more for these medications than you would pay at your local pharmacy. In fact, big-box or chain pharmacies can offer steep discounts. So it’s best to price shop.
Pet Insurance
Most pet insurance providers will pay between 80% and 90% of the vet bill. You can even get coverage for routine care and things like vaccinations and dental cleanings. If you do the math, you’ll most likely find that pet insurance makes financial sense in the long run as well as gives you peace of mind.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting to Know Your New Vet: Essential Questions to Ask
Choosing a new veterinarian is an important decision for any pet owner. You want to find someone who is competent, compassionate, and a good fit for you and your fur baby. To help you get the most out of your first appointment, here's a list of essential questions to ask your new vet:
Tell me about your experience with [pet type].
Different vets have different areas of specialization. Some are experts with cats, some dogs, some pocket pets, and some horses. Knowing that your vet has vast experience treating your specific type of pet can bring you peace of mind.
How do you handle emergencies?
You must know what to do in case of a pet medical emergency. Inquire what after-hours policy the clinic has, whether they have on-site emergency care available, and if they have a relationship with any nearby emergency animal hospitals.
How do you communicate with pet owners?
Good communication is key to building a trusting relationship with your vet. Ask how they prefer to communicate (phone calls, emails, online portal) and how often you can expect to hear from them.
Are there any breed-specific health concerns I should be aware of?
Some breeds are predisposed to certain health conditions. Knowing what to watch out for can help you catch problems early and get your pet the treatment they need.
Do you have any questions for me about my pet?
This is a great question to ask because the answer will show that the vet is interested in getting to know your pet as an individual and is willing to listen to your concerns.
Bonus question: Can I take a tour of your facility?
Getting a feel for the clinic's environment can help you and your pet feel more comfortable during your visits. Remember, you’re not just looking for a veterinarian, you’re looking for a partnership. Do not be afraid to ask these questions and any others you can think of. Any vet worth their salt will be happy to answer them. Because the more informed you are, the better equipped you'll be to make decisions about your pet's care! And that should be every vet’s top priority.

This place is horrible and my poor dog that was suffering from parvo was not even able to see a doctor because they wanted to charge me over 200$ just for exam and parvo test ,and that was going to be the cheap part ! I was told his treatment and medicine was just starting at 300$ and would go up from there depending on what all he needed! I told them I only had 250$ to work with, I don't have a lot of money and I had to borrow to get that, so I was directed to a website to see if I qualified for a loan,the woman encouraged me to try to get 4000$ once again expressing how much money could be needed, never heard any kind of concern for my poor dog,she simply didn't care! She told me I should go somewhere if I didn't get the loan because they couldn't give him treatment for only 250$ and of course I didn't qualify for the loan and this was around 9pm when this took place, I had no other choice but to take him back home. The following day I looked for vet half the day, every minute that went by my dog got worse, couldn't get in with a vet so I tried the clinic at the humane society, with a very heavy heart i say i had to turn my dogs over to be put down, I couldn't live another minute knowing his suffering along with my 2 other precious dogs that were my babies! Maybe if this emergency animal hospital would of cared more about helping a sick dog that was suffering instead of how much money I didn't have we could of saved them! I was willing to make payments for however long and however much it was going to cost but was still turned away! This place should learn to have more compassion for animals and less concern about money! What a shame!!!!

Golden was bitten by a copperhead on the nose on July 4th at almost 11pm. I called them to make sure they were open, and they were. Arrived, and the staff were very concerned about our dog. Thank you.

Without their exceptional care, Oliver would not likely be with us. Despite the conditions with COVID, they did a great job communicating and providing frequent updates on his status. The vets and techs went out of their way to make sure he was doing well. We were so impressed with this operation and the personnel, and best of all, we got to bring our big boy home today.

I have been here twice in the past seven years and both times the staff was outstanding. It is great to have a place like this to go to "after hours" when needed. They seem to know how much we love our pets.
