How to Save Money at North Street 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.

We have been taking our labs to North Street Vet Clinic for years. The new vets and staff there now are knowledgeable and friendly. Recently took two of our labs in for dental cleanings. The dogs were not stressed when they brought them to me in the waiting area and their teeth looked great. Communication prior to our visit and post procedure instructions were excellent. Pricing is very reasonable. I highly recommend NSVC.

Dr. Acuna is absolutely wonderful! I was nervous when Dr Russell retired and Dr Stout went to part time. Using a new vet after all these years was scary, but Dr Acuna made me feel very comfortable. He is very caring about his patients and their parents! He helped me put my beloved Lilly to sleep after a wonderful 16 1/2 years with her and now is is taking care of my baby Bella. His office staff and his techs are just as wonderful! Wouldn't go anywhere else for my baby's care.

They were awesome. My big furbaby either got a splinter or bit a wasp and was clawing at the front of his mouth, but I pack him in the car and head over and he's acting like nothings wrong. Dr. Stout got to meet him, the ladies there were all happy to see him, and we got him checked out quick and easy.
