How to Save Money at Winterfield Veterinary 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.

The staff here really cares for your animals. I've seen in person how careful and loving they are towards them. The kennel attendants deserve all the props in the world for how amazing they work. The vet assistants and techs work as hard as they possibly can. And the doctors never give up and advocate for your animal. I would trust all my animals to be here.

I have been so happy with Winterfield and our dog’s vet Dr. Tisnado. We have a difficult pit mix that has been treated very poorly by 3 other places in the area. Dr. Tisnado was the first vet who helped us get her anxiety under control and prescribe her a medication to help her at the vet. Other vets had rude comments about her behavior or made us feel bad that she had behavioral issues despite explanations that she is a rescue and had been abused. Dr. Tisnado took the time to get to know our dog and pair herself with positivity and treats. She was the first vet in 7 years to treat her like this and it has made all the difference that she built rapport with our dog! We drive 40 minutes one-way to get to Winterfield and will continue to do so because she is the only vet we trust. Thank you for everything you all do for Gretel! All of the staff are very professional and kind. The facility is very clean, too. We appreciate you all so much!!!!

They have the best grooming services for dogs that need a little extra love and care. My nine year old shih tzu, Seraphina has had anxiety since she did six months of chemotherapy and treatment for Lymphoma four years ago. Thankfully she is still in remission but vet offices and grooming salons make her nervous. Ms. Gayla has been Seraphina's groomer for nine years and Seraphina loves her. Gayla takes her time, calms Seraphina, is so gentle with her. Gayla makes Seraphina look beautiful. I couldn't be happier.
