How to Save Money at Five Forks Animal Clinic

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 entire staff here is amazing. The front desk is exceptionally kind, and responsive to both calls and emails. They make entry effort to get you an appointment quickly. The techs are very knowledgeable, always putting the animal's safety first. Their handling skills are excellent. The doctors talk to you like real people! They take the time to explain and answer questions. Dr. B has lots of varied experience but doesn't use big words, and Dr. M has a wonderful bedside manner (and the patience of a saint). Do your pet a favor...

From the first call to our appointment they were engaged, friendly, organized and caring. They really cared about our pup, listened and it was a definitely a two way conversation. Bonus - calm/clean waiting and treatment room. Recommend! Thanks Dr. Moyer and team :)

Dr Moyer and his staff were amazing today. I moved here recently after my dog who has had the same vet the last 9 years (his entire life) and had to find someone new. He was so great with Ziggy today, made him feel comfortable and was so sweet with him. Beyond happy and thankful to find a great team here.

My husband and I took our dog, Zane, here for the first time today. I CANNOT say enough good things about every single person we dealt with. From the front desk, to Brittany the vet tech, and the doctor. She explained everything in so much detail and was so helpful! Everyone was so amazing! For the first time ever our dog was not scared at the vet! 5 out of 5!!! Will definitely be continuing care!

The staff was wonderful and service was great. The only thing keeping me from giving a 5 is that we waited 45 minutes AFTER our appointment for our rescue to be seen. I even asked if anyone was on their way after 30 minutes and they weren't sure. I will update my review upon our next visit based on how it goes. I'm hoping this was a fluke because they do seem to have great reviews.
