How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Syler 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.

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.

We've taken our dog Skittles here for several years. Every single time we take her here, she is beyond happy to see all of the lovely people who care for her at this veterinarian's office. I wouldn't entrust her to anyplace else.

This was the first time to visit Syler Vet Clinic. We arrived and we had to push and our Pyrenees would not get off the floor. The staff helped us get him through the lobby and into the exam room. We got into the room and one of the techs squirted some cheese on the floor and threw a couple cookies down and got on the floor with him. They started the exam on the floor until he was comfortable until Dr Syler came in. She was just as pleasant. We have never had a more comfortable experience at a vet. Our Pyrenees was a stray and were getting a complete exam and shots. Unfortunately for the 1 year old has heart worm. Dr Syler explained everything in detail and set us at ease as to how we are going to treat it. I would recommend this Veterinarian highly. She got her degree from A&M and treated us well even though I had a Longhorn cap on. THANK YOU DR SYLER. You are the best.

Syler’s is always so sweet and friendly to my babies, and make them (and me) as comfortable as possible. I know they are busy, but I always leave feeling like my pets are valued and not just one of the hundreds they see each day! No matter WHO I see, I always get amazing service and they answer all my questions in a way that I can understand. They go above and beyond for my pets.

I have loved the Syler Veterinary Clinic from my first visit, but I absolutely think the world of them since my last visit. I brought my darling Gogeous here for 8 years and she received the best care I could ask for. When the time came to let my sweet baby go, Dr. Syler and her staff were so compassionate. They even took care of my baby for a little while so that I could sit with her a little longer and say my goodbyes uninterrupted.

All the staff were wonderful!! We took our 5 year old Guinea pig to Dr. Styler and she was very honest with us upfront! She did a full exam on him but told us she’s no expert in Guinea pigs. In her professional opinion, she felt confident that the lump under Squeakers chin was from an abscessed or infected tooth. She told us she could sedate him, lance it open and drain it but if the tooth ended up needing to be extracted once she got in there, that was outside of her wheelhouse. We opted to wait and take him to a specialist so everything can be done all at once if it’s needed and she 100% supported that choice! She started him on antibiotics for us and just charged us for the basic exotic pet visit. My husband and I were both impressed that she didn’t try to convince us to let her to the procedure and instead agreed with us that we should take him to a specialist. Her integrity and honesty gained us as customers for the future!!!
