How to Save Money at Richfield 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.

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've been to a lot of vets over the years, in many parts of the country. This is got to be one of the best veterinary clinics I've ever been to. Driving through the area in my RV and my German Shepherd was having some GI problems. Dr. Matt Hutchinson and his staff were most excellent in taking care of us. My pup was eager to go back in after a walk outside, to get his shots. Fees were very reasonable. Richfield is a really cool town and they're lucky to have these guys to take care of their pets. I think they also do large animals. Thanks guys!

We absolutely LOVE Richfield Vet Clinic! They were so wonderful with my sweet pitbull Molly! Always so accommodating! When we had to put her down, they gave us all the time we wanted, never rushed us, and took such good care of my sweet girl! Now we have 2 more Hooligans we bring! 💜🖤

We have from time to time a dog in our care at the facility that just takes a down spin. These guys get us in and taken care of quickly every time if they can. And the owners and my staff super appreciate their hard work and help when doggos don’t feel good.

Kind, knowledgeable and staff of the upmost level of integrity. I recently came in with my puppy who required multiple services. My experience and the fast health benefit to my puppy is incredible. Dr. Hutchinson was the veterinarian whom I had the opportunity to have received care for my puppy. After the first appointment, I am excited to call myself loyal to Dr. Hutchinson for all of my veterinarian needs. I won’t want to see anyone else because no other vet or clinic could provide me with the same high level of services at such an affordable price!

When you find someone who takes care of your animals as their own, why go anywhere else. 10 months ago when our dog got so sick there was nothing but kindness and help trying to find out what was going on with her. Even on the 4th of July weekend for an emergency visit. 5 times in a week and always treated with care and concern. Will never go anywhere else! RVC ROCKS!
