How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Equine Reproduction Concepts

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.

I could not be more pleased with my experience with ERC. They were so professional, friendly and accommodating. They took time to answer all of my questions and concerns and made me feel like a valued customer even though it was my first time using their services. I have tried several other equine reproduction services in N, Virginia and Maryland that were a huge waste of time and money for me and my clients in addition to having extremely poor communication and overall unacceptable service. So I am so relieved to have found ERC. I highly recommend this state of the art equine reproduction facility. I will be using them for all of my repro needs from now on.

Buyer Beware! My mare came back extremely underweight. She is an easy keeper with no health issues. I had a review on their Facebook page (with a picture of how my mare was returned to me) and they must have changed the format of their page cause their reviews are harder to find! My local vet gave me a plan and my mare looked like a different horse within weeks, all while carrying another foal. She was simply underfed and I paid them over $6000.00 for the time she was there!

Dr. Dippert and the entire staff at ERC are amazing and exceptionally professional while still being personable. The customer is kept informed throughout the entire process. Plus, the important details are fully explained and Dr. Dippert takes the time to answer your individual questions. Not only do I feel incredibly fortunate to have access to a state of the art facility offering full breeding and reproductive services, but feel very confident in the level of expertise ERC offers. Let's face it folks, breeding can be a tricky endeavor. I know my horse and breeding goals are in excellent hands at ERC. Thank you ERC for taking the worry out of the process and for a reasonable fee.
