How to Save Money at Carbon Animal Health
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.

I took my puppy in to get fixed and they did a great job. Specifically Serena(I believe is her name) she went out of her way to call and give me updates that I wanted. It is always stressful dropping your fur baby off to the doctors, but having updates from her made it 10 times better. She went above and beyond as a vet tech and was really sweet. My dog had no problems and barely has a scar to show. Wonderful job, thanks again Serena and carbon animal health!

They were willing to wait over an hour after close to helps us with one of our dogs and let us know everything that had happened with her. The place was very clean and staff were very helpful with making sure our dog was taken care of.

I have been trying to decide how I should star this review. In the past year of living here and having this clinic work with my pups, it had been good. But yesterday changed my feelings drastically. I went out of state on vacation and my son and my mom had my fur babies. 14 year old dog went into organ failure. While pulled over on side of road trying to do what I can to help, I call the emery office, I explained what is going on. The lady transferred me to the price office telling me they are the ones with a tech that day. No answer on that end. My mom than proceeded to keep calling. When she finally gets an answer they push off my dying fur baby with an appointment for the following morning. At this point my son mentioned to my dog trainer what is going on. Thankfully she stepped in helped mom and my son get my dog to the clinic where they walk in and find the staff sitting down having lunch. When asked why they couldn't be bothered to answer the phone they shrug it off with "we are on lunch break" How long does lunch take because this had gone on for a couple of hours. Meanwhile my poor baby is suffering and they was going to proceed to let her keep suffering all day and night with an appointment the next morning. Up until this point I had been happy with the the service from this clinic. Few months back my 10 month pup had been sick and I had a tech that kept in contact with me all weekend. She was great and a big help. But after being treated this way yesterday, I won't be going back especially for emergency

I have been debating whether to write this review for quite some time. This is a mixed review in the fact that we were happy that they were willing to see our puppy that had been in an accident. We are in Price but took our puppy to Emery County to get looked at. That night after hours we willingly paid what was asked and were told that we needed to bring her back in for a follow up treatment 2 days later and would not be more than $100 or so. We ended up having to pay an additional $600 more. Furthermore what was done on the follow up we felt should have been done the night of. We are grateful for the willingness to see our puppy in an emergency situation (we willingly waited for over an hour while a horse was being taken care of). I just felt like $500 over what we were told was a little excessive, at least give an explanation to why it was so much.

The vets here are top notch and make you feel like your pets are actually cared for. My dog has raging allergies resulting in various problems along the years, and they have always taken my concerns seriously and tried to take a multifactorial approach to resolving his issues, or at least keeping them at bay. My dog is also very anxious and nervous while at the vet, but they are always very patient with him which I appreciate. Sometimes some of the clerical responsibilities could be better taken care of, but at least the vet/vet tech side of things is great.
