How to Save Money at Spring Green 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.

I cannot say enough good things about Dr Kara Hutter. She is one of the most compassionate animal lovers I have met. She helped my best friend, Clarence the Great Dane, transition over to the other side and because Kara new Clarence and me personally, it made the experience so much more calm, relaxed and meaningful. The kindness, compassion and care that she shows not only to my boy but to me as a devistated pet parent is beyond any other veterinarian services I have ever received. I am so incredibly grateful that she helped my boy cross over the rainbow bridge. She reassured me of the decision I made and answered all of my questions kindly but informatively. There really is no better veterinarian out there. I will forever be grateful that she was there during that process to help me and him through the most difficult decision I've ever had to make. I also want to thank the gentleman who called me from SGAH to set up the cremation services as he was also very compassionate and kind. I can't recommend this place or staff enough.

If you love your pet, please don’t take them here! I have never had a worse customer service experience. The vets only care how many times they see your pet and not about actually healing them. Their reception staff are not timely in responses. Overall, there are better vets out there and I encourage you to go to anyone but these criminals.

Their lack of service killed my dog. They let her suffer. She had clear signs of a medical emergency, and they brushed it off as if it was nothing. Even said they were too busy to see her. But were happy to prescribe medication. And you wouldn't believe it, when I went to pick up the medicine the place was completely empty. Just two cars in the parking and the whole waiting room empty. We called Richland Center's clinic and they asked the right questions. They could tell immediately that it was a emergency. This clearly shows spring Greens lack of care for it's animals and customers. I'll never be going back to the spring green animal hospital. My poor dog, and everyone's animals, deserve better than this.

Spread over almost two decades now, I've had six joyful Border Collies and two contented cats that have been well cared for by the Spring Green Animal Hospital. I've found that the Hospital personifies excellence in every respect. The staff is without exception, knowledgeable, skilled -- and most important -- genuinely caring. They are the best!

We feel most fortunate to have the services of the Spring Green Animal Hospital available to us. Drs. Baenen and Dally have consistently provided expert treatment and consultation regarding our dogs, for more than 12 years. Moreover, the empathy shown by both vets and staff toward both pets and owners is undeniably genuine.
