How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Center For Animal Healing

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.

This is the most amazing place.... they have saved my dog's life twice so far she's 161/2 years old. And if it wasn't for the center for animal healing Haiey would have been gone a long long time ago.... I will be forever grateful .... I also brought my other dog here she is no longer with me she passed away one month shy of her 19th birthday. I also brought my cat here.... I can't say enough good things about this place we are truly blessed to have to have a place like this in our area!

We have 3 doodles and the oldest bad breath and teeth were in need of cleaning. I called and set up appt and from start to finish this place was a breath of fresh air. No sedation and my doodle was happy the whole time. They even walked by me in the waiting room and she did not try to get to me. I first must say at the groomers and vet, she does not go with them. I literally have to walk her back. When she came out, she was just as happy with the technician as when she went in. I just could not believe it and we were in and out in about 40 minutes. No skipping meals and no all day appt. I am amazed. My next one will be my little doodle. They even give you a dental report on their findings. Did I say I was amazed!!!

Before I begin the review I want to say that my dog is reactive and does not do well with other dogs. The staff here are incredible and ensure that my dog can get in and out without any issue or coming across the path of another dog. My baby girl Fai has a torn ACL. I really didn't want to put her through surgery, but it was affecting her quality of life. She was lazy and didn't really want to do anything. My trainer at HalfMoon Bay suggested this place because she knew they could possibly help me avoid surgery. The surgery is $6000+ and has a 12 week recovery time for those who don't know. This doctor told me they believe they can fix her torn ACL with no surgery. For microcurrent the first treatment included an exam for $295. We pay $95 for microcurrent treatment when the exam isn't needed. We have done 2 microcurrent treatments so far and she is already acting like a different dog. She has had a lot more energy and has wanted to play far more often. She also seems to sleep better again and even started cuddling up to us during bed time after the first treatment. She is so much happier and is clearly not in as much pain. We aren't supposed to let her jump or play too much while she heals but it's really hard to stop her because she's finally feeling good. I can't wait to continue to see her improvement over the next few treatments. Thank you The center for animal healing for providing a non-surgical option for my baby girl to get better.

I took my dog to Center for Animal Healing yesterday for the first time to get a dental cleaning without anesthesia. I have to say that since i entered the office i noticed it was a great team and environment. Organized, clean and spacious. Jenn and Courtney took great care of Navy and i was able to be next to them during the process. It is just great to know they can do such an amazing job without the need to use anesthesia. They answered all my questions and the most important part is that they treat Navy with love. Excellent team!
