How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Vots
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

Wait was long, but what can you expect for a discounted vaccine clinic? Once it was our turn, they got us in and out! And the prices are amazing. Our only issue is that they forgot to register my kittens microchip, so when I went to try to sign in to add myself and my partner, it’s asking me to purchase the lifetime registration which the website says is included with the purchase of a microchip. So I’m working on getting that sorted out. Other than that I am so happy with my experience and I’ll be coming back every time I need to get my cats vaccinated💜

The staff are amazing , the manager not so much. The front and back desk ladies are always kind and understanding, the vet techs are always willing to help and explain if you don't understand, but the way you see the manager treating their wonder staff breaks my heart some days.

I was happy when I finally found this place where my pets could be treated without drugging them. But today I had bad luck. If your pet is the nervous type, make sure Dr David is there, he knows how to treat pets. The replacement doctors do not have a bit of professionalism when treating "difficult" pets. Today I waited approximately 4 hours and when finally my turn came, they immediately returned with my pet covered up to the head saying that it was impossible to work with "Your dog almost ate us" (I put a muzzle on my pet even, other times real doctors even take it hands free, and I didn't have to put it on) If 3 people can't handle a small Chihuahua, it really makes me wonder how they will come up with other situations. The sad part is that this is not the first time I have encountered these types of "doctors." In another case, my dog was almost dying, and I took him to an "emergency hospital" waiting for hours in the early morning and when my turn came... They discriminated against me and threw my dog to the ground when my pet reacted badly. It was late, I was tired, everything was closed and with good reason because it was holyday. The only person who could help me that day didn't, this case was worse than the first of course, but today's treatment made me remember it.

I have always used the affordable vet care at care a lot for my dogs annual vaccinations. affordable vet care was so friendly and sweet to my dog despite his anxiety of new places and new people. today I took my beagle to get his annual vaccinations and the female asian tech from vots was RUDE. to start, she acted like a drill instructor while asking us questions about our beagle like she did not want to be there or care about him at all. I know she saw how anxious my dog was as I carried him to get his weight and she refused to take our leash or our dog physically when they took him back for his shots. she just kept telling us to drop our leash while she had a part of the retractable line and when we let go, she did not stop it from hitting our dog. then the whole time they were giving him vaccinations we could hear her yelling at our dog while he was crying and im sure scared to death. then she dragged him out at the end and again was basically giving us orders to get us out of there as quickly as possible. we usually come to get his vaccinations every year at care a lot but after this interaction we will be finding somewhere else to get his vaccinations.
