How to Save Money at Campbell 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.

Getting 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.

Dr Kim has been caring for our rescue dogs for years and I am very happy with her. She is a good surgeon as well for general surgeries, spay/ neuter and teeth extractions. Dental cleaning and Spay costs are very reasonable in the area.

Elliott Jaffa

Hello…my name is Simon. My human, Elliott, took me to a new vet, Dr. Kim of Campbell Animal Hospital located just past Fairfax Circle, for my annual physical. Although my previous vet was very nice and took good care of me, his practice was acquired by one of those big companies that buy out the smaller, more caring animal hospitals. I immediately liked Dr. Kim who greeted me with a jar of treats in her hand…a very good start! She spent a lot of time checking my various body parts, asked my human lots of questions, and kept those treats coming. My human was highly impressed by the questions she asked about my diet, behavior, and even my poop. She gave him a few recommendations to take even better care of me like to be sure to clean my ears monthly. Dr. Kim told Elliott that I needed to have my teeth cleaned, and we made an appointment for the following week. He was very impressed with the extremely thorough job Dr. Kim did cleaning my teeth. I even got a set of the before and after photographs of my teeth. Being the educated consumer he is, Elliott had called several vets in the area to inquire about their fees prior to our visit. Overall, Dr. Kim’s fees for my annual exam, tests, and vaccinations were at least 20-25% less expensive than other area animal hospitals. For teeth cleaning most of the other vets charge between $750 and over $1,000 compared to $340, all inclusive at Campbell Animal Hospital. If Elliott follows Dr. Kim’s directions to brush my teeth 2-3 times each week, I won’t require a teeth cleaning for several years. As her patient, I give Dr. Kim five loud “woofs” - stars in dog speak for my care and treatment. If you decide to take your best friend to Campbell Animal Hospital, you can tell them that Simon sent you.

Horrible experience. They say they’ve an urgent care but this isn’t true at all. They couldn’t care less about animals. Took my dog there for urgent care they denied and said nothing they can do maybe come back later at night and they will see if they can do anything. Who does that? Probably wouldn’t even blink if a pet dies in front of their eyes, they don’t care at all. I’ll never ever leave my pet there. Don’t recommend ever.

Sun Min Kim

The best I can say about Dr. Kim of Campbell Animal Hospital is that she is incompetent. She was not able to figure out the cause of my dog's skin issues and tried several treatments, some of which are actually burdensome to my dog, without any improvement for more than 8 months. Actually, the issue was getting worse and worse during that period and she even mentioned the possibility of deadly skin cancer. When we finally decided to see another vet, however, this new doctor pinpointed the issue right away with just a microscope and solved the problem with just two doses of a not-burdensome medication. Now my dog has got rid of those painful skin issues and burdensome treatments but I still regret that I stuck to Dr. Kim so long while she showed no progress.
