How to Save Money at Kingdom Animal Hospital
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.

Bill Thomas, you sir have been proven to be the liar. Your Facebook post that you turned the comments off is a joke. Pets are not cheap. Veterinary medicine is not free! You were told what the exam fee was and took that and ran with it. Your cat needed other diagnostics which you were aware of. Do not bash a company because YOU are broke. That is not their fault.

My wife and I have been patronizing Kingdom Animal Hospital back as far as when Dr. Fish owned the practice so that's now been over 30 years. Then they did farm calls and continued to do so up until just a short time ago when I guess it just got too much to handle. We were always happy with the timely response to our calls for help and with the treatment and consultations we received over the years. Since Dr. Fairman purchased the practice we have been extremely pleased with the treatment given to our dogs. We specifically always have Dr. Casey Green treat our dogs (Rottweilers) because he seems to have more of an ability to understand larger breeds and interacts with them better, (in our personal opinion). We are disturbed to read the negative reviews on some of the female veterinarians with Dr. Fairman's practice. Of course we have no insight as to what happened other than what is written here and on Yelp but I suspect if these owners had spoken directly to either Dr. Fairman or Dr. Green about what is claimed to have occurred that they would have intervened and done all they could to rectify the complaints. We have always found all the staff who assists the veterinarians to be very courtesy to us and very gentle and understanding with our dogs. We have found both Dr. Green and one of the vet assistants "Brooke" to be very empathic and both have always been straight shooters with respect to the issues we have faced over the years. I also have personal knowledge that Dr. Green spent the night at the clinic to personally watch our young dog one night when we had an emergency with him earlier in the day. I can't thank Dr. Green and Brooke enough for coming to our home when it was time to euthanize one of our dogs. This was on 11/21/2018 which I suspect has been the worst day of our lives. They couldn't have been more professional, kind, gentle, and empathic. I will also complement Darren Jones here who owns Jones Funeral Home who came to our home with a gurney and hearse to take our dog to the funeral home. We sincerely recommend Dr. Casey Green and Brooke at this practice. We also recommend Dr. Fairman who we have also had vet our animals over the years. I can't speak or give any recommendations on any of the other doctors there. They have a large staff and we know that they do everything they can to properly take care of the animals in their care. We have been in business ourselves and know that it just takes one employee who is rude or makes a mistake to affect the whole reputation of a business. Don't let the couple of negative reviews here dissuade you from going to Kingdom for your pets veterinarian care because I can assure you they are reputable and are caring people.

Well i have to change my review. This vet has proven to be liars. First time I took my cats there i was quoted the bill would be $79. They charged me $479. Second time I took my cats there I was told it would be $ 79 again They had to do test on my cat. I asked how much that would be they qouted me $279, they tried charging me over $600. When the test came in 2 months ago, a month after the test were performed. Dr Sarah Philips called me with the results and promised she would call me back with the cost of the medicine. She has not yet, nor have my numerous phone calls been returned. Because of this my cat is dying. Her condition is getting progressively worse. I am on a very limited budget do to being disabled. I will be seeking a new Dr for my cats. Plus I will file a complaint with the Virginia Board Of Veterinarians

We've taken both of our dogs to see Dr. Fairman. He has been great along with all of the staff. Our Westie was sick and Dr. Fairman scheduled surgery for him. When I took him in for surgery, Dr. Fairman noticed his demeanor was a lot different from the previous day and decided not to operate. He explored other options and our Westie has gotten 100% better without surgery. My wife and I are grateful Dr. Fairman took notice of the change in behavior and chose to hold off on the surgery and not perform an arbitrary operation.
