How to Save Money at Locust Grove Veterinary Clinic
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.

My family moved into the area at the end of 2022 and of course needed a new vet. I have 3 dogs now, one they have yet to meet but they will meet the new rescue next week. They are wonderful people and reasonably priced. I am very happy to have found them and be so close. I’ve not been happy with many vets but I can honestly say, this is a great vet.

Inattentive scheduling staff. After contacting me - scheduled an incorrect day/date. I may have missed my appointment due to this staffer error and lost the $100 deposit? Customers beware! Check carefully when appointments are made by clinic staffers Unfortunately, my two dogs, cat and parrot will never receive the excellent service other customers have posted. But “access” issues are very important to scheduling one’s personal calendar.

Receptionist seems to road block business before you even male an appointment. Basically if you get stacked or stapled out of state then time comes to remove them she said if we didn't put them in we don't remove them. I'd assume that would be more of a call that doc might wanna decide to make vs a Receptionist

Love Dr Anita and miss this wonderful, caring Veteran office. We moved to Leesburg and cannot replace this family oriented Vet. Jack loved her.

I am absolutely so HAPPY to be back with Locust Grove Veterinary Clinic. The staff at the desk are amazing. They are so helpful, sweet and kind. My dog Poohed on the floor as leaving and they offered to clean it. That was my first. I always have done it at other veterinary clinics. And Mr. Lewis who just started there 8 months ago is so AWESOME. He asked questions, explained everything to me, very caring and patient. The staff that helped with shots, weight in the room with Mr Lewis , was also AMAZING. If I could, I would give this PLACE a 10 STAR. Unless we move, I WILL ALWAYS COME HERE. COME HERE if you NEED a VETERINARIAN. THE BEST PLACE EVER!! YOU'LL NEVER GO ANYWHERE ELSE. THANK YOU ALL STAFF
