How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Niagara Animal Hospital
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.

Recently had to put my girl off 13 years down. The staff was very compassionate and thoughtful they even sent us a beautiful card in the mail with their condolences signed by everyone their. They even came to the truck and carried her in for her appointment which was supposed to just be to check on her hip.

Thank you Dr Zimmerman and staff, for your kindness and understanding with our very difficult decisions we had to make in putting our 13 year old Amos to sleep. Amos was suffering from kidney failure and we didn't want to see him suffer any further. My husband and myself felt the staff and Dr were very respectful and caring, giving us peace of mind in our decision. We are truly grateful, blessed and appreciative for your kindness. Blessings 💛 ✌️ 7/27/23- Thank you Niagara Animal Hospital Dr's and Staff for the kind and caring, thoughtful card we received today regarding our beloved Amos ❤️. We know Amos is at peace from any suffering. Not a day goes by that Amos is not in our thoughts and wishing he had not become ill so he would have continued to be loved without measure and spoiled with catnip and treats, living a longer loved life. R.IP. Amos my beloved ♥️

My cats Daisy May and Oreo Cookie have been patients here for the last 4 years. I cannot express enough how compassionate the staff is and how affordable a yearly check up was. I highly reccomend Niagara Animal Hispital for all your pets needs.

Dr. Drake seems to talk down to clients when they are genuinely concerned or asking for an alternative for what she has said. There was zero compassion with my visit today and I felt as if I was a burden to be there. I had to bring along my 3 children as I am a stay at home mom & the staff seemed annoyed when they informed me only 2 people were allowed in the exam room. Sorry my kids are 8, 6.5, & 1.5 yrs (cannot be left unattended) She very rudely told me the flea & tick prevention I was using was useless & "did not work" she had no care to even listen to what I was saying. I would NOT recommend them any further! I walked in a very concerned pet parent, & walked out feeling unheard & looking for a new vet! Edit to add to your reply. My appointment was scheduled for curbside, your staff (receptionist) knew my children were in the vehicle when she said to bring them all in. I would have accepted the opinion of my "fad" option had it been delivered in a not so rude tone & if she would have listened that it is what is best for my household. I understand safety reasons for only wanting minimal people in the room & giving "the discount" on the "emergency visit" however your employees told me because you had a cancelation that I was no longer being seen as an "emergency " and now was treated as a normal appointment. Either way, none of this is an acceptable reason to have a doctor be rude when speaking to a pet parent. I am looking out for possible future clients so they know they will not always get top of the line service that they are hoping. I do appreciate the medication for today's issue, but my issue is the rude way I was spoken to & not being listened to as a concerned pet parent.

They are very accommodating. I appreciated them getting my other dog in for nail trim when only one of my girls was on the schedule. Thank you!!!!
