How to Save Money at Collierville Animal 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.

Getting 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.

I was here last year because my cat had cancer and they were the most reasonably priced. I also had her teeth cleaned while she was in surgery and since she's been so happy instead of lethargic and grumpy. Its been over a year and the cancer has not come back. She's still herself but has gotten so small. I went again and found out her labs were perfect but her thyroid levels were through the roof. They have in home lab testing so I was able to learn immediately. They thoroughly went over four options with me and the estimated costs. I've started on a recommended treatment and will see how it works. I'll be back in three weeks to see if there's any progress. The staff is very considerate, understanding and welcoming. My cat is 15 and I'll trust they do right by her. I've been to another vet since I moved go byhalia in olive branch and they do not compare.

My little tiny Serama hen had big broken eggshells stuck inside of her that had to be surgically removed. Pretty scary, as she is so tiny & I wasn't sure if she would make it. But Dr. McGee's confidence, experience, & answers to all my questions really helped to ease my mind. My little hen is recovering from her surgery now, & already back to her normal, happy self. I am so, so very thankful to Dr. McGee for saving her life!

Millie and I have just returned from our most recent visit with Dr. McGhee at the Collierville Animal Clinic. Let me add that it is now a 12 hour drive. I started going to Dr. McGhee in the Mid 1980's and through the years I have seen many of the other Doctors there. Since moving to South Florida, I haven't been able to make myself change. They have met me in the middle of the night, have returned phone calls on holidays. They have worked miracles after severe injuries. They have showed extreme compassion and calmed my fears. They have been honest when it was time to let go and shown patience while I learned to do so. We had 9 dogs, 2 cats, a squirrel, a deer, 2 ducks, and many rabbits. All wildlife was able to be released into the wild. Docs, I can't thank you enough. We'll see you for the next checkup.

I have had great experiences using Collierville Animal Clinic! The staff is so kind and genuinely concerned for their patients. Dr. McGee has been so helpful with my precious turtle’s growth and development. If you want the very best for your pet, this is where I would recommend.

This a wonderful place ! I had to board my kitty and they put up with her stressed personality. We also had blood work done and a visit from the doctor. An extremely professional pet hospital and lodging.
