How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Tidewater Veterinary

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 traveling through the area from New York so I never have been to this vet before. My dog had an eye infection and was having a lot of car anxiety so I called to see if they would be able to accommodate us for a one time visit. They offered us a same day appointment. Their staff was very friendly and they were very thorough with their evaluation. We were in and out in 20 minutes. I truly appreciate how great they were to my fur baby. Despite her looking like a deer in headlights she left there happy! Lol Thanks again!

I just wanted to say Dr. Berger and her team were very kind and considerate. I'm visiting out of state and needed to touch base for my dogs vaccines and some medications. They got me in same day. Intake was less than 5 minutes. Got to talk with one of the staff to explain what's up and my concerns. My doodle is anxious around new people, no big deal Dr. Berger adjusted and we gave her vaccines without much fuss at all. She was very attentive and answered all my questions for continual care while I stay here on the coast. I will also say they are very affordable. Thank y'all for the visit, I appreciate it immensely. I felt like I was visiting my normal vet.

So impressed with the entire staff at Tidewater Veterinary. We feel so lucky to have Dr. Ella Berger taking care of our family dog. She is not only an amazing vet but she is kind and compassionate as well.

My Jazzy jumped off the bed and impacted her knee...she was in terrible pain and I have a travel vet. Not a fan of the emergency vet in Mt. P so took her to Tidewater Veterinary and they got me right in. I don't usually take the time to do reviews and I wasn't asked to:) ..I can not say enough good things and how wonderful they were...the girls came out and helped me carry her in on her dog bed (she is a 66 pound dog) Dr. B was amazing and so gentle. They got her into a splint called and got a call into see Dr. Cook (surgeon). They have followed up every day to see how she is doing and truly care. I feel like the old days when your vet knew you and your dogs name.

We recently moved to the area and Tidewater Vet was recommended to us when one of our dogs had been sick, and it's been easy to see why they were. The service and care was wonderful and our pup was feeling better later that day. In addition to the great care from Dr. Bostian and team and a great goodie bag at our visit, we received a detailed email with a report of the visit and also a followup check to see how he was doing. All appreciated and we are glad to have found our new vet for our pups!
