How to Save Money at Woolsey Justin DVM

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.

Dr. Doug Woolsey- this man is awesome. As a vet, and a human. I saw his humanity when he pulled my daughter's first pup through Parvo. The care and compassion he showed that day- I'll never forget, more than 20 years later. Still go to Dr Woolsey. Would definitely recommend. Price wise, care, everything!🐾

Dr Woolsey is a miracle worker with animals, and in my opinion, with people too. I brought my ailing 14-yr-old dog in, who’d been missing for two days, and I was upset. Our sweet little Ada kept disappearing…and though we knew she was near her crossing over time…I had to track her down and slide her out of her hiding place, discovering her alarming and sudden failing condition. So, I was a weepy mess when I got to the clinic, but they made everything as okay as possible…even though they were probably sure it was time to say goodbye. They are always efficient and compassionate, and price their services affordable. They will always be our pet caretakers.

I use to love this Vet but lately staff have been rude and rarely answer the phone. It appears they are more interested in QUANTITY than QUALITY 🤦🏼‍♀️ Couldn’t even be bothered to explain an X-ray other than pointing and say “that is not suppose to look like this “ ITS TIME TO RETIRE
