How to Save Money at Broadway Veterinary 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.

Super long-time patients - cats and dogs, from bottle fed babes to an end-of-life. Fabulous vets. Excellent and kind staff. Very affordable. I, personally, like the curb-side drop-off and pickup. My pets do not get stressed over unfamiliar people and animals. Dr. James and Dr. Jen have come out and talked with us if there were any issues. No problems with getting to talk with anyone on the phone. Sure, I might have to wait a minute, but that's true of all places of business. As for waiting in the parking lot, I bring a book or work. I wait at my doctor's too. Love this place.

They were able to work us in and took great care of our cat. We were so anxious about taking him to a new vet but they were wonderful. You do have to be patient because it took 20-30 minutes after our appointment time for him to be taken in but they are worth the wait.

Absolutely love this place, Dr. James and his staff are polite, accommodating, knowledgeable and all around excellent in giving caring to their patients. Dr. James cropped our Bully's ears and did a great job! Amanda, one of the staff members was SUPER!! The office is about an hours drive (one way) for us but it was truly worth it.

Love Broadway Vets! They are wonderful. 30+ years. They listen to our concerns and work to help us out. We have a nervous dog that bites and they were very kind to help us comfort him for shots and blood drawn! 8/18/23 Sad to say but we are looking for a new veterinarian. Reason? We can’t go in with him.

I have brought our cats here many times over the years. I can deal with many things, but when my cat Bojack was ill, not eating, drinking or using his litter box. I called on Memorial Day to get help for him. They weren't open of course, but the message sent me to a ER vet way out in West Knoxville. I sat there for nearly 4 hours waiting to hear something. Finally when the vet came out all she did in all those hours was do blood work and a urine sample. She said she couldn't find anything wrong with him, mind you he is usually a very active cat that is just laying there. She didn't offer any suggestions, but to take him home. Come Tuesday I called my vet, Broadway Veterinary Clinic, to get him in. They were full and couldn't see him though I told them how sick he was. They could see him Thursday morning. So I made the appointment. Come Tuesday night he was worse, although I tried to force feed him baby food. He was so weak and lifeless. I called an overnight vet and took him there. They kept him overnight trying to help him. He only got worse. They told me to take him to another vet on Clinch Ave. I took him right away. This vet's office had never seen me or Bojack before, yet treated us so well even after my poor Bojack passed away there. I have no respect for the vet in West Knoxville, had they offered me suggestions for my poor cat I could have held my baby as he passed. But I didn't get to all due to Broadway Veterinary Clinic and their afterhours Vet. I'm moving my remaining cats to the Vet Clinic on Clinch Avenue's sister site on Mill Road. I feel they will get better care. I still miss my baby Bojack.
