How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Vision Vets For Pets
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 had a great experience here. We drove 2 hours because our Great Dane was having eye issues (again). They were able to work in his surgery the same day as the consultation. This was our Dane’s second eye surgery so we were familiar with what was going on. All of the staff were extremely friendly and went out of their way to help us and our dog. I could not recommend this place enough!

After 9 long weeks of trying (and failing) to heal my super‑mutt’s eye ulcer with our regular vet, we were referred to Vision Vets for Pets. I called, and to my pleasant surprise, they got us in 2 days later. Within 30 minutes, Dr. Lewin and his team had a diagnosis (a pesky eyelash disorder called ectopic cilia), a treatment plan, and surgery scheduled just three business days out. These folks are FAST. My dog had cryosurgery, and within 48 hours her eye was already looking better. At the 8‑day follow‑up the ulcer was completely healed, and she’s back to her happy, zooming self. The team is skilled, compassionate, efficient, and the clinic is spotless and comfortable. I can’t recommend them enough — Vision Vets for Pets is truly 5‑star eyeball rescue!

The best veterinary eye specialist in East TN! I was referred to Dr. Lewin by my primary vet for an adenoma that had come up in my 12 year old Great Dane's eye. They worked us in the next morning for an evaluation. From the moment we walked in the door we felt welcomed and a priority. Dr. Lewin, Kathy, Cheryl and his entire team took the time to offer special care for my dane with mobility issues. Dr. Lewin explained all the treatment options and risks associated with my dog's condition clearly. We decided to have the eye removed. They scheduled surgery in a timely manner and was so amazing at communicating with my primary veterinarian.I was so nervous about my 12 year old dane going under anesthesia. They were all so reassuring and addressed any concern I had. His expertise and knowledge made me feel completely at ease. He has given my best friend more quality time with her family and I am forever grateful for that! This team is the absolute kindest and you will not regret putting your trust in them.

I adopted my dog, Millie, as a senior a few years ago and always wondered why her eye was a little different. Due to other health concerns with her, I've always pushed this off since it wasn't bothering her and we had other priorities to get her healthy. She was finally stable, so it was time for her eye appointment! I only have one day off during the week, but was pleasantly surprised that they had availability the following week! Millie is a nervous dog when out of her comfort zone, but she loves people and makes friends easily. Some vets are immediately weary of her due to her breed and anxiety, and this leads to more anxiety and a stressful visit for both of us. I'm thrilled that this was not the case here! She was greeted and treated with kindness and no judgement. She made quick friends with Dr. Lewin and Lilly! Millie enjoyed her vet visit for probably the first time ever!! I had answers to all of my questions and Millie's condition very quickly and I'm relieved that it wasn't anything too serious! Vision Vets for Pets will be my first call or referral choice for any future eye or vision needs for Millie or future pets who need it! Highly recommend for all pet vision needs!!

Dr. Lewin & the staff are amazing. I took my two Border Collies for OFA exams, one that would easily go home with a stranger and the other very nervous around new people and especially men. Dr. Lewin worked with my nervous guy smoothly and it was a very positive experience for my feral farm boy. No more waiting months for a specialist appointment either and he has flexibility for emergencies as well.
