How to Save Money at VCA Snohomish Animal Hospital
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.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting 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.

Or husky has some autoimmune issues with his blood. We brought him to VCA in November for a test to see where his red cell count was, we couldn't get into our normal vet and we were concerned about him being lethargic, they fit us in on short notice. Dr Davis was able to find a pathologist that would do 2 blood tests that even our dogs specialist said they were breed specific tests and not for huskies. Point being, When I've had a appointment with Dr. Davis, she is very thorough and does her best to explain things in a understandable matter. I've never felt rushed. After every Tech appointment for just drawing blood, I always get a phone call as promised from her. The calls are very thorough as well. She and the crew at VCA Snohomish have made a significant step forward in my dogs venture to be a happy, healthy, energetic dog. I can't speak highly enough of this place. We live in Gold Bar, and will keep coming back. Thank you so much VCA Snohomish.

Wonderful, caring people work here. They even gave our toddler a little holiday gift today when we got our pitty checked out. 😍 I’ve always had wonderful experiences with VCA and this Snohomish location has been one of the best yet. Thank you so much for everything you guys do!!

Last week we brought my Chihuahua named Chewy here because she was suffering from heart failure. The shorter asain woman came RUNNING to me at the front door and quick as she could took Chew into the back. We were then brought to a private room within minutes and then called by the head Vet there. She was very compassionate. She clearly explained the facts, and her opinion of the choices we had to make for my dog. We ended up choosing euthanasia. Even though my heart is broken, I am so thankful we came here and not Diamond or some other place. The people here at VCA are incredible and they did all they could, and in the long run I will come back here in the future. I'll also be recommending anyone with an animal emergency come here first if they have an opening. Call ahead because if your pet is in dire straights, they will make room if they are able. Like they did for us that day. Thanks for your hard work and love! 😺 🐕

The staff genuinely cares about you and your pets. They are unmatched by anyone I’ve ever worked with in the past. Thankful to work with them.

Great staff / care / experience here. As a newer dog owner just assumed "this is just what things cost now", but further research showed we were paying 2 to 3 times the average rate for everything. Very accommodating and great option if money is no object, but ultimately was cost-prohibitive for us.
