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
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.

UrgentVet was so easy to schedule online. We arrived and they had a full coffee bar with snacks, charging station and a nice outdoor area. We didn’t use any of it because they were so quick to get us to a room! I love it. Everyone was so helpful, loving, and knowledgeable. They understood my need to not wait to see our regular vet. All in all we loved it. Prices are very reasonable! Here’s my girl relaxing while we wait in the room.

What a pleasant experience! I brought my 13 year old border collie in for an urgent visit, the first time one of our pets had needed care since recently relocating to VA. I cannot speak enough praise for the entire staff at UrgentVet. Dr. Hester was kind, thorough, and reasonable in her care plan. Jenn was a great tech who got a thorough history and gave my girl all the love and cookies. Panda quickly learned where the cookies lived. I’m sad this clinic isn’t a primary care because I would love to get to see them regularly! Instead, I am left hoping I don’t end up needing them again!

I love this place. I’ve been to many urgent cares for my two golden retrievers. Most have been a bad experience getting through it even when the dogs are eventually taken care of. The wait times the lack of communication but this place was the best! So professional and new and calm. I didn’t have to wait as they have a reservation system. That’s not to say that there wouldn’t ever be a little wait but this time lucky for me there was none. The vet techs are friendly and knowledgeable and the vet that I saw was knowledgeable, pleasant add did a thorough job figuring out what was wrong with my golden. I highly recommend this place.

We were so grateful to the team at Urgent Vet for being willing to squeeze in our senior pup when our regular vet was closed and they were technically full with appointments! It was so reassuring to have them help our boy feel better, rather than having to wait a day for his regular vet. They were so kind & compassionate, can’t recommend them enough!

Took.my 10 year old dog, who is not a big fan of vet visits. Staff was great! They did a discharge summary and fees were very reasonable. Phenomenal experience. Highly recommend for urgent care needs.
