How to Save Money at Sinton 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.

I brought in a stray puppy that was invested with fleas and ticks and without question Brenda took her to the back and got her taken care of while I sprayed my vehicle. Thank you Sinton Vet Clinic for being so caring about the animals that come into your office. I will definitely be coming back if she makes it.

Our usual vets office doesn’t do walk-ins normally, so when we woke up to our Lilly hurting so badly a week ago, I was desperate & really didn’t want to have to go all the way to Oso Creek Vet Hospital. Our vets office actually recommended I check with SVC & that made me feel better. Such awesome care & got us in quickly, which was amazing, given that we were expecting all of our children to arrive in town at any moment for my mother-in-love’s funeral. The ladies at SVC took what started out as an upsetting morning & turned it around. That day was Lilly’s 13th birthday & our girl has arthritis, but it could have been so much worse. Thank you!

We were new to area and looking for a good vet near our new home. We haven't been disappointed. They've taken excellent care of our three ranch dogs. We had one other when we moved out but she was old and had a few issues. After almost a year here, it was time to put her down. It was Easter weekend but they still made the house call so she could go quietly at home. There was a little confusion with the cremation but that's understandable with everything having been arranged over a holiday. We'll soon be bringing our horses out here and we can't think of anyone better to help give them the best care possible. Update...we now have two more pure bred good dogs & the 4 horses have arrived. All are well taken care of at SVC!!

They were my vet for about three years. They definitely have the best prices of any that I’ve been to in the Corpus Christi area. My dogs were always very well taken care of here. I Also would consistently get my dogs nails clipped here. They did a great job with that even though both of my dogs are about 150 pounds each and definitely did not make it the easiest on them.
