How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Companion Animal Wellness Center
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

I bring my tiny guy, Doug, in. He’s a small-breed pup but has some tummy sensitivities. They’re always accommodating and kind. I came here on the recommendation of some friends with dogs and am so glad I did. Every person here is kind and sweet with Doug, and also know how to handle worrywart dog owners like me!

Both of my dogs are patients at CAWR and I could not be more grateful for them. My dog (Goose, Malamute, 4) had some pretty traumatic experiences in emergency care and is extremely anxious and reactive at the Vet, but Dr. Stevens never makes me feel bad about it (which has happened in the past). My puppy (7 mo. Doberman, Duck) adores Dr. Stevens and is over the moon every time we go in -- I have to practically drag her out to leave. Despite my dogs extremely different reactions to the vet's office, I feel they both are treated with the same amount of love and care -- they really put the well being of my babies above all else and I couldn't be more grateful to them. They have never hesitated to fit us in for an emergency, advocate for Goose's well being despite his reactions, I always feel listened to and allow us to make "happy visits" -- overall just a wonderful team of people. We adore the staff and will be patients here for the rest of their lives. Can't say enough good things about them. We were referred by two of our neighbors and we continue to refer any of our neighbors looking for a new Veterinarian.

My dog Mud and I have used Companion since she was puppy. Everyone there absolutely adored her and treated her with the top quality care a single dog dad could hope for! Dr. Stevens is a rock star, she beams with compassion for animals. She also referred me to a live abroad dog trainer whom her college classmate was the kennel vet. That was an unbelievably positive experience for my dog and myself. After moving away and unfortunately having to find a new vet, the staff has been extremely helpful in providing all the info needed to transfer with a helpful smile! Just an all around great group of humans, who you can completely trust you furry friend with!

Going to let you in on a little secret, this vet office is one of the kindest and most efficient offices I've ever encountered. This vet is wonderful, from the reception staff, to the vet techs, as well as Dr. Lisa and Dr. Kate! They are compassionate and loving. My sweet Callie dog has struggled with skin allergies and they took the time to give me detailed and straight forward advice on the diagnosis, options for medical intervention and the prognosis Very fair pricing, I didn't feel like I was being "upsold" on anything when we came in. If you want a great veterinary office that will treat your pet like family with reasonable pricing and ensuring that no stone is unturned, you have to bring your dog here. Thank you to the staff at Companion Animal Wellness Center, for all the love and care you give our dog!

Dr Newnham and her staff show the level of care, compassion and empathy that goes above and beyond of what I have ever experienced from the vet clinic. They helped our family to get through the tough times when our dog, Benny, became terminally ill. I am so grateful for them.
