How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Friendswood Animal 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.

This was our first time at Friendswood but we were very pleased with the attention and service that we received. We love Dr Spencer! My only complaint was the cost seemed about double what I have been paying but I will do it to have my pets taken care of by Dr Spencer. She takes her time to get to know your fur baby and takes excellent care of them under any situation.

Our first visit was wonderful! My human was very anxious as she hadn't had a fur baby for over 16 years. Everyone welcomed me with a smile, hugs, kisses, and superior service. My doctor Melloy was very nice and gentle when I got my vaccine, and I even got a yummy treat 😋 for being such a good puppy! Ty Friendswood Animal Clinic!!

New to town, and needed a trustworthy vet. My dog is… particular, which has made me the same for her sake lol. She’s my whole world and the best companion, so I always want to give her the BEST of the best. First I wanna say I was shocked at the price. THIS PLACE IS SO AFFORDABLE. I was expecting to pay well over $450+ for the exam fee, blood panel, parasite screen etc, as that’s what’s I’m used to… NOPE. Under $370… So I’m thrilled to have saved $130+ than expected! Lol They were able to get me in same day for an afternoon appointment which I scheduled as a meet and greet and bloodwork. The front was very clean, and quiet. Receptionist kind and prompt with me and other clients as well from what i saw. The exam room was clean, and smelled good too! The vet tech was extremely kind and gentle with my girl, and I could hear them in the back telling her how cute and good she was (which made my heart happy). The Dr was extremely kind and Informative as well and assured me that boogies was in good health and in safe hands there. They allowed me to prebook with the same Dr and tech for my girl’s future appointment so she can have consistency and not be overwhelmed/anxious. While she was a little nervous after the blood draw (understandably), she was not shut down or anxious and pacing/panting which has happened at other places while searching and concerned me. They really took the time to get to know boogies history and get to know both of us personally. They made me feel like a great pet owner, assuring me I did great with her previous surgeries (luxating patella’s) and keeping her at a healthy weight. They really tooted her horn on how cute and good she was. Finding a new vet after a move, for a dog who is easily anxious/overstimulated and is aging, is SO stressful, and I feel beyond relieved to have found this clinic along with the dr and tech. HIGHLY RECOMMEND if you want a good safe space for your vet.

At Friendswood Animal Clinic the staff were very kind and worked in a next day appointment for our Zoey. She was suffering from skin irritation and licking a lot! She’d been seen elsewhere a month prior but no improvement after medication and time. Dr. Spencer was fantastic, super friendly and kind to our girl and us. She was very knowledgeable. She reviewed Zoey’s records of her 9 year life, prior to giving us a path forward. She took her time addressing our questions and concerns. We are grateful for the progress our Zoey is making and the genuine care and concern shown to us by Friendswood Animal Clinic. Shout out to Dr. Spencer❣️
