How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Animal Emergency Hospital

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.

Wonderful service! We brought our outdoor cat in because he seemed seriously injured, perhaps after a sort of scuffle with an unknown animal... We live in a rural area so it could have been almost anything. I was feeling like a horrible pet owner. Our cat was muddy and in obvious pain. I thought they were going to treat us poorly because we shouldn't have "let" this happen, but they were very professional and nice to us. Years ago, a dog of ours was tragically hit by a car (and passed away later that night). We brought her to that same place and I got the distinct feeling the lady there thought it was our fault. She may not have... I can't read minds, but her bedside manner was cold and she seemed mad. The staff we met last night, however, didn't seem judgy in the least. All three had wonderful bedside manner and cared, greatly, for our Shy Guy. We left him overnight with them. When I called this morning, a whole new set of staff from the night before (I'm guessing) addressed us. They were just as sweet and caring regarding our cat. These guys are GREAT if your pet needs emergency care in the middle of the night... Or anytime, for that matter.

I had to take my cat here because he was having some serious issues relating to an ear polyp. Unfortunately this place is 100 miles (one-way) from the house, but it was worth the trip. The staff immediately took him in and examined my cat. They kept me informed of what needed to be done and gave me a treatment plan along with medication. I'm happy to say that the initial medication they gave him in the office worked well and there's already a marked improvement for my cat. I will have to follow-up with a surgeon, but at least my boy won't suffer until he gets the polyp removed. Side note: I've gone to several emergency vets over the years in various locations, and this one not only provided excellent care, the cost (compared to most places) was/is extremely reasonable. I would absolutely travel the 100 miles again to this place if I had to.

Disappointed that I was charged 103 dollars to put down a dying stray cat I found in my back yard, I thought if I had the compassion to load the cat up and bring it across town they would have the compassion to do what must be done. I really thought a veterinarian hospital would care more about the suffering of an animal. I paid because I do care.
