How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Elm Hill Veterinary Clinic
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.

Cooper is heading back and he is excited! Wow! This veterinary clinic is easy in, easy on the pet (Cooper) and very reasonable. Such a nice feeling knowing that I can be with Cooper while he gets his shots. I was able to be with my children when they received their shots. Brought Cooper back for a check up and to get his heart worm and flea and tick medicine. He got his nails clipped without any problems. Ears, heart and teeth checked. Cooper has picked up a couple of pounds so we’ll watch that.

They accommodated me with a same day appointment last minute for vaccinations for BOTH my cats, everyone I worked with was so kind and helpful. Wonderful service, I’m new to town and they will definitely be my new regular vet!

Was really looking forward to meeting Dr. King but he was on vacation. Relief veterinarian was absolutely amazing but the staff-- Completely have no idea what they're doing... Not a single one knows how to draw blood from a cat. None of them know how to hold a pet professionally in a vet practice during an exam. They seem very uncomfortable and unconfident which definitely makes you nervous as a pet parent to see them attempt to handle your pet awkwardly. Staff actually let a large senior dog leap/fall off the exam table and it can be heard in the lobby when she fell. Heart murmur patient too..The staff member let it happen previously with another pet patient as well. They all seem afraid of holding animals.. I love the open layout of this veterinary practice so I know exactly what's going on with my pet and I love that I am actually present and involved in their care. Rather than my pets taken to a back room out of sight; leaving me to wait anxiously. You can hear staff asking what to do with a biting bulldog and how to wash it properly. How long to blow-dry it. Asking how to use an autoclave without burning surgical tools. Not keeping up with maintenance of their diagnostic equipment. Their microscope wasn't functioning properly due to that. They just seem very inexperienced and uneducated. I also have some fears regarding their sterilization process of surgical instruments as a staff member came and asked why the surgical packs were burned and no one knew why.... The burning can be a result of low water in the autoclave or a pressure leak...which can lead to a very BIG boom...I used to be a vet tech a long, long time ago...I actually had to call them back after I got home and inform them because I was THAT worried their autoclave would implode and people/pets would get hurt... ) I had to cancel my future appointments. I was really looking forward to working with Dr King but unfortunately his staff are not qualified. I don't feel like my pets will be safe in their care. It's super important to have a practice that can function while your away on vacation. I even asked if the staff were new, I'm talking like 5-6 girls who had no idea what to do or when to step in to help the relief vet. I had to step in and properly hold for simple examination. There are so many positive reviews - it feels like Dr King is basically doing everything on his own and the staff are just...there? I didn't get charged for the appointment but extremely disappointed in their services.. I even have my cats trained to have blood taken peacefully. Both leg and jug. Absolute perfect cats to work on when taking blood and not a single person knows how to take blood on a cat or even attempted...just said they didn't know how. If more experienced techs and assistants were hired I would love to bring my 3 pets back there and meet Dr King. Relief veterinarian was extremely professional and kind. You can tell she was desperate for actual help from a team who knew what they were doing...Absolutely loved working with her but felt extremely bad because of the inexperienced staff. I'm going to give the benefit of the doubt- maybe all 5-6 staff members are new? Hoping Dr King will address these concerns and I can come back to experienced staff and meet the veterinarian I heard such positive feedback about. Not sure how else to reach him other than by review
