How to Save Money at Mercy Vet

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.

I brought our lil Maltese pup here a year ago after going from vet to vet; nobody could help figure out Bella’s sensitivities and allergies. Dr. Lisa was kind, caring, patient and responsive to all our concerns and queries with Bella. She has helped us navigate Bella’s care and has brought back a level of health into Bella’s life - for that we are truly grateful. The staff is always kind and smiling. The clinic practices holistic and western veterinarian medicine and this is great if your furry baby needs naturopathic tx. They do tend to be a bit on the expensive end, however the peace of mind that we get from the quality of care is well worth it. Thank you Dr. Lisa & team!

Dr. Jackie Sehn and team are compassionate, wonderful, very knowledgable and thorough with integrated pet care that includes both traditional and holistic practices, with a whole lot of consideration for systemic causes, not just treating symptoms. I discovered Dr. Jackie when fostering a very ill young rescue foster dog. We tried Chinese herbal therapies, and even leaned into a genetic panel for answers to try to help her, and I appreciated that they considered many more angles than previous vets we consulted. I now take my two dogs there and would not consider going anywhere else. They arranged a puppy socialization drop-off playdate during Covid, which has made our new puppy, Clover, LOVE going to the vet. And they are sweet and gentle with our timid, scared rescue, Lucas. This veterinarian practice is special and won't give up on even the toughest cases. Mercy Vet is the best office I've seen in the Seattle area!

Dr. Jackie has a way of explaining complicated medical problems so that you truly understand what is going on with your pet. She takes full charge of the situation so you feel comfortable and relieved, and know your pet is in the very best hands. I cannot say enough great things about Mercy Vet!
