How to Save Money at Americas Animal 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.

Excellent staff. Fast, courteous and knowledgeable. They took great care of my furry little friend. He's back to jumping and running all over the place.

Great staff and very nice as well but the doctor needs to learn to speak to people. I understand my dog is very sick and I know his condition but he needs to learn how to be more compassionate because we see our pets as another member of the family. The doctor kept on repeating that my dog was not going to make it and we would tell him we were still going try everything for him to get well and again he would keep telling us he might not make it. Again I understand for him to also not give us hope either right because at the end of the day I know they know dogs better than we do, but there are ways to talk to people in this situation. No one like hearing “ you’re dog wont make it” we are trying to stay positive in this hard moment because my furry friend is my family.

Spy Dogs

I was traveling through El Paso & needed a vet for my dog who had bad breath. I did not know, but the vet who saw my dog was disabled in a wheelchair. I told him my dog had bad breath. The vet said he had to examine the dog in another room. Red flag. I told him ok. A while later, the vet comes back & says he could not see anything bad with my dogs teeth. He gave him some mouth wash; the total bill was less than $100. A month later, I took my dog to his regular vet. His vet removed 10 teeth because they were rotted. Obviously, my dogs teeth were bad, but this vet did not examine his teeth.

Dr. Heath and his staff were so helpful and sympathetic in helping me deal with my Chihuahua Roxy's death and with arrangements for her cremation. Have taken all my pets to his clinic.
