How to Save on Veterinary Costs at UrgentVet
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.

My regular veterinarian recommended this place for an urgent appointment- it was very easy to book a time slot online. The vet tech that greeted me was very nice and I was placed in an exam room immediately. The vet tech that first came in the room was extremely caring and professional and got the health history fast. The ver that came in and examined my dog was super nice and very knowledgeable. They ran a test and determined my dog’s problem. They took a sample and ran a test (urine) There was a very short wait (15 min) for the results but they kept checking on us and updating us. We were told what options we had and the costs of each. We left with the antibiotic in hand and my dog is already feeling better. I added a photo but wished I had taken more for this review to show how nice the facility was.

The staff greeted us immediately and took care of our Great Dane’s laceration. We were evaluated within 10 minutes, had a treatment plan and estimate in 20, and returning home with our stitched up pup in what was less than an hour total. What could have been traumatic for him and us was a great experience. The vet called to check on him the next day and he is healing great. Thank you Whitney and Dr. Draksharam!

Booked appointment online, checked in at kiosk and was seen right away. They treated our cat so nice and handled him very well. My cat was comfortable and cooperative with the friendly staff. He was evaluated, tested, and received treatment for UTI very quickly. They called the next day to check on him. Amazing experience. Thanks UrgentVet staff! ❤️

The clinic was immaculately clean! They do not go by appointment but they do allow you to save a spot on their website. We were there on a Saturday. We saved our spot for 3:30 and were called back at exactly that time even though they were very busy. Everyone was very friendly and professional. Our Aussie, Jasper, was very comfortable there. It was an awesome experience and I will return if needed!

I've never had to put a pet down before. My precious 17 yr old cat who got diagnosed with mild kidney disease in April rapidly deteriorated yesterday after a few days of not eating or going to the bathroom as much. Being so old and thin things got really bad yesterday after I realized she may not make it through the night my sister found Kingwood Urgent Vet for me last night. The staff and doctor were so wonderful. Their process, environment and compassionate care took some of the pain away from having to do this. I'm glad that I waited until after hours which brought me to them for this process. I highly recommend them! I'm heartbroken but happy my sweet baby is no longer suffering. Here is a picture of my baby from 11 years ago after I adopted her. Thank you everyone at UrgentVet for taking care of KK in her last moments!
