How to Save on Veterinary Costs at The Pet Hospitals
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.

After seeing 3 other vets (one in Arlington and one in Bartlett) I 100% recommend Doctor Angela Infante at the Lakeland Location. We have had nothing but fantastic experiences with her. She is knowledgeable and truly cares about the animals she tends! She is up to date on medical practices/research and does continuing research while solving the most challenging cases. When we go to the doggy daycare, everyone knows Ms Maggie! Not only is she excited but so are they! We love the new pet resort they built! Fantastic!

We moved here about 5 years ago and needed a new vet; we were driving to the grocery store and passed their facility. We made an appointment and saw immediate caring and respectful attitudes towards us and our pets. About two years later we had a life threatening emergency happen on a Sunday. The doctors and techs (legitimately multiple people) gave us and our dogs what felt like their undivided attention. They were suppose to close at three PM that day. They stayed long past closing to stabilize our one dog so that he could be transferred to an emergency vet across town. As a medical professional, I have the highest level of respect for those clinicians. At no point did I feel they were leaving any details out; they were giving us the facts and though it was hard to heard those facts, I respect they were up front. By the time they stabilized my dog it was late at night, and yet there was still a full team caring for my dogs. One tech there apparently held my little guy for a few hours just to keep him calm. The doctors here made the transfer as smooth as possible- they called the receiving facility, transferred paperwork, made it seamless for us. The emergency vet took over care and the next morning we had a consult. The receiving vet said our dog was going to live with minimal to no deficits only because of the hard work, quick reaction time, and the aggressive treatments that were administered by this facility. They saved both of my dogs lives. I will never seek another vet- between their vet care, their grooming services, and their boarding, this is the only place I trust to care for my dogs when they are not in my home.

My experience with The Pet Hospitals in Lakeland was nothing short of exceptional, particularly thanks to the incredible care provided by Ashley, the Vet Tech, and Dr. Buco, the veterinarian. From the moment I walked through the door, I knew that my dog, Alex, was in good hands. Ashley greeted me with a warm smile and immediately made both Alex and I feel comfortable. Her empathetic nature and genuine concern for my situation were so impactful that I was moved to tears. It was evident that she wasn't just doing her job; she truly cared about the well-being of my beloved Alex. Dr. Buco was the epitome of what every veterinarian should aspire to be. His examination of Alex was thorough and meticulous, ensuring that no detail was overlooked. What really stood out, however, was his calming and gentle demeanor. Not only did Alex not whimper during the examination, but she also seemed to calm down slightly, which was an immense relief given her distress. The facilities were clean, modern, and well-equipped, ensuring that all of Alex's needs could be met. Dr. Buco and Ashley communicated clearly and offered detailed treatment recommendations, which made me feel confident in their expertise. I can't recommend The Pet Hospitals highly enough. I will never take my dogs anywhere else for veterinary care. A huge thank you to Ashley, Dr. Buco, and the entire team for providing such outstanding service. It truly made a world of difference for both Alex and me.
