How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Healthy Pet Veterinary Clinic

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

Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

we've been with HPVet for a couple of years now, with our rDVM being Dr Jenny, but Dr Christman has stepped in on occasions. we have had nothing but fabulous experiences with them. they're very good with our furkids, very transparent about pricing, and super real but compassionate when situations are hard; we had one kitty develop sudden CKD and they didn't give us false hope or doomsday fear, but were very down to earth in a kind & considerate manner which I massively appreciate. I LOVE the fact that you can text with them. the kitties never like going to the doctor (see picture) but they still respond well to the team bc they're so good with em. anytime a friend mentions needing a vet, HPVet is my first recommendation and I intend to stick with them as long as possible.

Carla is a phenomenal vet who I have trusted with all of my small animals, as she has some herself. Always helpful and there to answer any questions i may have.

Have been a client of Healthy Pet Vet Clinic since they had tiny space on EAST WASH. Everyone there is SO accommodating and understanding even when I had a freak out due to my cat Koko[Madison Cat Project’s] freak out. And their office always has a pleasant smell!

Love Healthy Pet, their vets, vet techs and front office staff. From support through my dog’s cancer treatment to helping a kitty with chronic upper respiratory infections, they've always been helpful and responsive to my questions and medication needs. Have been with them for many, many years and don’t foresee changing. Thank you

I just moved home to Seattle after several years in Madison. Last week I accompanied my mom to our local vet to put down our family dog. The experience was rough and left me inspired to leave a review for my Madison vet. I kept rats for years and they were wonderful with them, especially when it came time to say goodbye. Just incredible sensitivity. They have a bereavement room that makes the experience so peaceful and much less clinical. And the staff is so thoughtful and patient and willing to hear you tell stories about your pet as you say goodbye... just a really stark contrast from my recent experience at another vet. Plus they sent out sympathy cards signed by the staff, which I always thought was a really classy move. I could not recommend them more highly. Some pictures of the old girl (Lola) and my best scraggly rat (Caiaphas) included for tax.
