How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Shorewood 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

Shorewood Animal Hospital is outstanding. We have an anxious Doodle and they do everything possible to make her comfortable. I wish my care was there:)! Honestly, we have been seeing Dr. Whang for 10 years and recently Dr. Joyce for a surgery and it’s like our dog is the only one in the place. Caring, understanding, brilliant and willing to sit on the floor with an anxious pet and its anxious owner is above and beyond. Every vet tech and person at the desk is also just the best!! They listen, understand and provide the best care!

Best of the best! #teamSARA every single staff know me, my dogs, and my entire life story. And remembers us. What more can you ask for?

Dr. Joyce and the staff at Shorewood Animal Hospital have been so wonderful to us and our dog Edie who is now 18-years-old. They always follow up in a compassionate manner and truly care about our sweet old girl. We're very grateful.

I have total confidence in the care my two cats receive at Shorewood Animal Hospital. I've tried other places throughout the many years I've had various cats but have never received such good care for them as I have received from Dr Joyce. It's easy to find vets who know and love dogs, but vets who truly know and love cats - and even have cats of their own - are far more rare. This is just one of the reasons I feel Dr Joyce is exceptional - the best cat doctor around. The technicians and others who are part of their care team are also very knowledgeable and great at handling my cats with care and consideration for their comfort. Additionally, their facilities are always clean and their entire staff is friendly, professional, and kind. I can't say enough about Shorewood Animal Hospital and how much I appreciate them.

My sweet pooch had her teeth cleaned recently as well as an extraction and a cyst removed. We received fantastic care and concern and instruction from Dr Joyce! Shorewood Animal has served us since 2013, and they have never disappointed me. Wonderful staff all around!
