How to Save Money at Kelsey Canine Medical Center

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 can not say enough good things about Kelsey Canine in Collierville. They have been amazing since her first vaccines. They call and check on her and send messages. Today, she had her surgery. We were sent a message when they started, Dr. Kelsey called when it was finished and I just received this thoughtful message. Thank you for your professionalism, your exceptional patient care and your thoughtfulness. ❤️ Hey there Maggie May is doing great! She is relaxing and will see you soon. -emily

I have thoroughly loved my time and experience here. Everyone here is super friendly and welcoming. They are also super passionate about their job and that's how you know your fur babies are getting the best possible care! They go above and beyond and when they say they will follow up with you, they do! I have loved everyone I've had interactions with and when the time comes for me to move away from the Memphis area, Kelsey Canine is the single place I will hate to leave behind. I would recommend to anyone looking for a vet that does the best job possible and actually cares for your pet! 100/10 for me! (Also, the front desk and the check out desk women are exceptionally sweet!)

Our dog has been going here since she was a puppy. If we didn’t have to move out of state, we would have never gone to another vet. Love Kelsey Canine

We know when we take our pups to Kelsey Canine, whether it’s for yearly checkup/shots or a serious illness, they are going to get the absolute best care available. Everyone from the veterinarians, vet techs, and office staff are very professional and caring. They respond quickly to voicemails and text messages, and I’ve never had a problem scheduling an appointment! Definitely THE place for the best care for your pups! Thank you, Dr. Kelsey, and your amazing team for all that you’ve done, and do, for my Montana and Athena!
