How to Save Money at Briarcrest 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.

This is a GREAT place to take your pet. They're caring, respectful & genuine. They care about your pet AND you!! I recommend this place to anyone. The vet & vet tech explain everything & the front desk ladies are great & friendly! I've made them my permanent vet clinic.

We are so thankful for such a great team all around!!!! We always feel welcome, pets are treated well and well taken care of!!!! They were supportive and made us feel at ease when we had to send our dog over the rainbow bridge and our current goofy dog is always given great care when we visit often! Which makes us thankful that the care is affordable!

I have had many veterinarian experiences in Brazos Valley. Dr. Fuller and team are amazing. They are affordable, honest, and never recommend a plethora of expensive testing. He is our 6th vet in 20 twenty years but we have been with the clinic for 7 years now and will not go anywhere else. Clint is his assistant and the quality of service you get form having a regular consistent staff is something you can’t get at every vet.

We've been using Dr. Fuller for almost 2 years now and have never had a single complaint! We have a Great Pyr rescue who is very nervous in new situations. Twice we have had to board him on very short notice and Clint, the vet tech, always spent extra time with him, making sure he's comfortable. When our cat was very sick, almost to the point of putting him down, Dr. Fuller was very forthcoming about what treatments were worth trying and called us almost daily with reports on our cat's progress. Not only did our cat fully recover but it was also much cheaper than the treatments recommended by the emergency clinic we first took the cat to.

Paid minimum wage to technical staff, when I left they stated "maybe we should start a volunteer program to get free labor out of people", requested technicians administer rabies vaccines which is illegal. Hired a technician who didn't know what a mammary gland is.
