How to Save Money at Texas Veterinary Hospitals
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.

So I recently moved from San Antonio to Edinburg for school. While I was in San Antonio, Texas Vet Hospitals in Castle Hills was my main vet. I'm sooooo glad I chose them. I was always confident that my pets would be taken care of the first time I took them. I was never given the run around and I was never charged random fees. They were always up front about the care they were providing and were more than happy to explain the care in detail. I also have to give a huge shout out to Dr. Mixon--he was so friendly, always professional, and was very knowledgeable. I also loved their receptionist, Tiffany, because she is so down to Earth. Had a lot of cool conversations with her. Anyway, thank you guys for being wonderful. I wish I could've taken you with me to Edinburg.

A great experience that turned my girl's failing health around quickly. Dr Mixxon came as a reference and I couldn't be more pleased by the staff's attention and care. She is healthy and in full puppy mode now! 😊🙏

I used to love this vets office until the doctor himself could not admit to my dad that the medicine he gave our dog was the cause of an allergic reaction and the staff was insensitive & incompetent. We took her to VCA Becker hospital cause my dad no longer felt comfortable taking our dog there after MULTIPLE false diagnosis with all the paper work he gathered we rush to VCA to find out our dog had cancer and she had to be put down. They informed us that this clinic did not take proper X-rays and never heard of this injection they gave our dog. Saddened with grief the doctor at VCA thanked my dad for being our dogs advocate cause he knew it was more than just allergies or an inflamed hawk. I would not recommend taking your pets here. Just save your money and do your research.

Hello Texas veterinary hospital, my name is Deborah and my kitty cat is named Gypsy. I rescued this poor cat that was reduced to just fur and bones, I took her in in a heartbeat, I reached out to your clinic, please forgive me I cannot remember the vets name, all I know is that she was a lady, and she was our saving grace. He saved this cat's life, my cat's life, random act of kindness and an answer of prayer straight from God. She was not expected to live, but by God's grace and this that's great she is alive today, and doing so great at her life. I just wanted to let y'all know, y'all bring me to tears of gratefulness and by grace and answer prayers, amen 👍😊❤️🙂🙏
