How to Save Money at Loudoun Veterinary Service, Inc

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.

Time Leads Me

Loudoun Veterinary Service (LVS) saw my dog as a "drop in" on the day I called when his current vet couldn't do a "drop in" until the following Tue (5 day wait!). I'm so glad LVS could see him right away because he has a double ear infection. I dropped him off at 9:30 am and LVS called at 11:00 am to come pick him up. I wasn't expecting to pick him up until much later in the day. I was given medications and great instructions on what to do on my end and made an follow-up appt in 2 weeks to see how he's doing (previous vet has never done a follow-up appt). I was and still am so thankful for their help and how helpful and friendly everyone was, I had all of his records transferred to LVS! I can't thank the staff enough for taking him in the same day I called and the amazing concern and care they showed. LVS rocks!!!!!!! Thanks to everyone, you are amazing!!!!!!!!

The office personnel made time for me to bring in my sick dog, even though there were no appointments available. I was able to drop him off until a vet could see him. I am very grateful for their kindness and commitment!

It took me a long time to write the review. The staff has always been kind; however, Dr. Acha could never remember that my cat was a male, prescribed the wrong medicine, and tried to convince me I'd signed off on the medicine.

Dr. Stang is the best!! Takes the time to explain treatment choices/options. Years of experience result in accurate diagnoses the first time around. Always feel like I get the best cars available from him.
