How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Riverton Veterinary Clinic
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
Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

We take all five of our dogs here and absolutely love it! They always call us back the same day with any concerns. We knew the previous owners and it's been a smooth adjustment to the new management. Couldn't be more happy with the care of our fur babies.

I've unfortunately only had 2 experiences here and both were end of life care for my cat and dog. The vets and techs there were very kind and understanding. The only negative was I couldn't get an out thebdoor price on the service over the phone because I didn't want a "package" and opted to take my animals home afterwards with me BUT they were able to get me in very quickly and again, they were very kind, They spoke kindly of my animals during the process and reassured me I was making the best choice for them. I hopefully won't have to go back for a while but when I have vet needs for my fur babies, I know who I will always call.

I have used Riverton Vet off and on for many years. They typically are a bit more costly so I don't use them as often for routine things. However, after several agonizing weeks, I decided it was time to make the appointment to put down my 15 1/2 year old dachshund. I have used them once before and thought they did a good job so I wanted to use them again. When I tried to make the appointment, they told me that I would first have to do a wellness appointment to confirm that this wasn't a "convenience euthanasia" and that if the doctor determined anything that could improve his quality of life we would need to try that before they would agree to the euthanasia. I was appaled, and incredibly offended. I have had this dog since a pup, their records show that, and to suggest I'd put him down for my own convenience is horrible. This struck me as a money grab, and "punishment" for using other vet offices, and to take advantage of an already emotionally charged situation, and as a result, would put my dog through, likely weeks, of unnecessary stress before reaching the same conclusion I have. They even denied my request to have his vet records sent over instead. I could understand this if he was a young dog, but sadly, he is not. Thankfully, we have found a more compassionate vet office. I can only hope Riverton Vet can take a hard look at their policies for others in similar situations.

When I first moved to UT I initially took my cat to Riverton Veterinarian Clinic as it was close to home. It was a nightmare. On my first visit the veterinarian wasn't even familiar with the very common medication that my cat was prescribed by our previous vet in TX. They said that they had never heard of the medication. (Even I had heard of it prior to my cat taking it because humans can also take it.) Instead, they were recommending a medication that my previous vet told me was found to be dangerous for cats hence the reason for the current medication my cat was on. They were obviously not up-to-date with the current medical care for cats. Also, they were unable to do a basic lion cut on my Persian. Poor kitty had a very bad haircut for months until it grew out! On my first visit there was dog poop on the floor immediately when I entered right by the front desk. They weren't rushing to clean it up despite the fact that they weren't busy & I was the only customer there in the waiting room. I quickly found Lone Peak Veterinary Hospital in Draper & I haven't looked back since!
