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

I have gone here for many years when living in this area. Usually they are great, but my recent trip was a different experience. I described my dog's symptoms & also that he was extremely nervous about the vet experience. So we muzzled him, but no one talked nicely to him or tried to soothe him at all. On top of that the vet just looked at me after my description of odd behaviors and said "I don't know what's wrong with him." He did a cursory exam (still not talking to my sick dog) & then said I'll give him a cortisone shot and maybe that will help. I called another vet 2 days later because there was no improvement. After describing the behaviors to the receptionist, she had a good idea what it was & the vet confirmed. We were in & out in 15 minutes plus they were VERY nice to him. I will NEVER go here again.

I tried this Vet 3 or 4 times over the years because of the good reviews. I didn't mind paying more for services there because the reviews were good and the office is close. I have since found a much more compassionate Vet that's more reasonably priced in La Marque. The first couple of visits I assumed Dr. Johnson was just a quiet person but came to realize he's not shy he's arrogant! And the staff goes as their leader goes; unfriendly to the point of being cold, abrupt, rude, indifferent.... get the picture? Then I began thinking If they treat "over paying" customers with contempt how are they treating the pets while in their care??? Absolutely NO people/customer relations SKILLS! No smiles, no greetings, no thank yous, just the hand out for over priced services! I understand people having a bad day but my experiences have all been the same with no exception! All I can say is that the 5 star reviews that mention the "friendliness" must be posted by friends or family members!

I was very pleased with my visit to Scott Vet clinic. Dr. Johnson was very personable and attentive to my cats' problem. He caught her up on her shots and scheduled a surgery. Since I had not gotten routine shots for Carolina, she was very lethargic and would not eat and she was very sore from the shots. I had to cancel surgery but will be rescheduling. The receptionist was awesome also.

Our adopted dog was neutered here. The vet & tech seemed as if they didn’t want to spend time talking to us. We left without a cone because the vet tech told us he would be “totally fine” without one. The dog swelled up so badly and he burst his incision site two days later. We had to take him to an emergency vet to fix the problem because he was bleeding profusely. Turned out he also had a massive infection. It is now two days after the emergency vet visit and he is bleeding again. We are going to another vet tomorrow to get someone we trust to actually take care of our dog. No dog deserves to go through this, but especially not a previously abused, fresh out of the shelter, older dog. He has been in pain for five days. I’ve called and left a voicemail that detailed what was happening, and they haven’t returned my call. Very frustrated and heart broken for this dog.

Great doctor and staff. We will not go anywhere else. Dr. Scott helped my very sick rescue kitty get well, it took several months with antibiotics and steroids but now she doesn't even look like the same cat. I will be forever grateful. I had been to two different vets before I found Dr. Scott with no real help. My creatures are so lucky to have him.
