How to Save on Veterinary Costs at UrgentVet

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

Great clinic. My Great Dane found a block of cheese at the park and ate the whole thing including the plastic wrapper. This was a Saturday afternoon and my normal vet clinic was closed. I called UrgentVet and headed right over. They had me checked in and in a room within minutes. My Dane is a major booger at the vet and they were very patient with him. Able to induce vomiting quickly and get the plastic out of his gut. Staff is very kind and efficient. We were in and out of there in about an hour. Almost unheard of in an animal ER. The cost was also very reasonable compared to other Emergency Vet Clinics, it was close to what I would have paid at my regular vet. The clinic was nice and clean. I hope I won’t have to go back but if I need mor urgent care I will use them again. Thanks for the great service.

Even though there was a bit of a wait because of the amount of people there, as I would have expected, the staff immediately came out and greeted us, let us know about how long it would be and came out frequently enough to keep us in the loop. I never once felt ignored for that my Kitty was not important. They provided excellent care, and made arrangements to send copies to our regular vet. I would bring any of my animals here!

I was able to make my appointment online for the same day visit. They were so great and helpful. I would rate them an 11 on a 1-10 scale. Great people and great service. I recommend them highly!

The best emergency vet I've been to in utah. I liked that immediately given a private room. In other emergency vets here people saying goodbye to pets in lobby, fighting over pricing and other animals stressing my cat out. It was nice to just have privacy right away. I was shocked in and out door in an hour on a Saturday and the price very reasonable for emergency. Kitty cat still sedated in photo but happy and infection clearing so happy went vs waiting a few days until his vet opened.

I have been to this facility twice in the last 2 1/2 months. Sadly, it was because both of my sweet old labs needed end of life care. Each time, I hoped my dog would be ok, but were not. The vets were very kind but upfront about the situations and explained all options to me. They were thorough and professional. Every member of the staff I have worked with has been great but I'd like to offer special thanks to Summer. Summer is the one person who was with me for both of my dogs' visits. Summer showed so much compassion for both Kodi and Bella and for me and my devastation. Summer also went the extra mile to help with Bella's final arrangements. I have a regular vet but they were not available either time I needed this specific care. I appreciate the availability of this facility and their staff. The prices were reasonable as well.
