How to Save Money at Southeast Animal Hospital
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.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting 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.

My husband and I have been bringing our boys here for years. What once was 3 dogs is down to one. My husband informed them that our 10 1/2 year old recently passed and days later we received a hand signed card in the mail. The people here are caring and truly want your fur baby to be happy and healthy. We definitely recommend this vet for all your pet needs. Our almost 8 year old is in great hands with the staff of Southeast Animal Hospital.

Checked in at 7:45am and the receptionist was rude and sarcastic. A vet came rushing in late and scared my dog. As soon as he barked, they said he’d have to be put under to be examined! The "vet" told us I should use be using a choke collar so he’d “respect” me, even after I said we were there for breathing problems! My dog’s been through obedience training, he just picked up on that bad energy. Don’t trust such apathetic people to care for your family. We went to Alamo Dog & Cat Hospital on Pleasanton instead, and they were amazing — my dog didn’t bark once!

On 8/22/22, I took my two french bulldogs(Judah and Zuri) to Southeast Animal Hospital because they both had a snotty nose and internal sneezing. The vet prescribes them both cortisone shots and antibiotics, he never tells me what they had but when I called back they advised that it was an upper respiratory infection that was contracted at the doggy daycare from the previous week. The next day my smaller frenchie, Zuri, who is only 10 months old and 20lbs, threw up a total of 8 times due to the antibiotics. I looked at the antibiotics and Zuri was prescribed the higher mg amoxicillin at 250 mg, when it should’ve been prescribed to Judah who is 2 years old at 35lbs. Due to her throwing up excessively and not eating we had to go back to the vet where they switched Judah’s medicine to Zuris and gave Zuri a different antibiotic at a lower dosage (only 50 mg). The initial visit total was $238, you would think coming in the next day that the vet wouldn’t charge you because of their mistake with mixing up the medications. They actually charged us another $82 for Zuris new antibiotics and a cernia injection that was caused because they prescribed the dogs the wrong medications. I spoke to the manager about the situation and they didn’t want to agree to any type of refund or discount towards our visit nor did they want to own up to their mistakes as doctors. I have attached the initial medications vs the new medications showing the huge mistake they made with my frenchie’s medications. Southeast Animal Hospital used to be my go to but once a mistake like this happens causing harm to my pets I don’t feel comfortable bringing them anymore. Customer service also doesn’t seem to be a priority for Southeast Animal Hospital.

Dr. Homer is the best vet I've ever had. He is a talented surgeon, and his staff are friendly, efficient and helpful.
