How to Save on Veterinary Costs at UrgentVet
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.

I had the unfortunate experience of having to say goodbye to my 16 year old dog. The staff was so caring and so compassionate. They made a difficult evening as easy as possible for both my sweet pup and me. Two nights later I was back with my 6 year old, high anxiety cattle dog. Every staff member told me they were sorry for my loss earlier in the week and took exceptional care of my little guy. I simply cannot recommend this clinic highly enough. Top notch care. Affordable for after hours care. Exceptional service. Compassionate staff. Thank you for all you did for my canine family this week.

We are extremely grateful for the wonderful care our Yorkie received at your hospital. From the moment we arrived, the entire team of doctors and nurses was compassionate, professional, attentive, and caring. They took the time to care for our Yorkie with patience and kindness, and they also made us feel comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. It was clear that everyone truly cared about our pet and wanted the very best for her. We were very satisfied with the care and treatment she received. The doctors and nurses were absolutely wonderful, and we cannot thank the entire team enough for their dedication and compassion. Thank you for taking such great care of our beloved Yorkie. We truly appreciate everything you did for her and for our family.

Unfortunately we recently had to go to Urgent Vet on Breckinridge Ln for unexpected end of life care and cremation for my sweet girl cat who was 16. We came in an hurry an hour before they closed on a Saturday and didn’t have an appointment but got assisted right away. Everyone was so kind and supportive, helpful, and caring and helped so much in such an emotional and unexpected time. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience given the circumstances. Unfortunately a few weeks later, we found ourselves in a very similar situation with our 15 year old family dog, who ended up receiving end of life care with urgent vet as well- and although the circumstances are so unfortunate and heartbreaking, I’m glad that the same service, care, and supportiveness was shown to my mom and dad and siblings that my boyfriend and I received the first time around with my girl. I never write reviews but I felt that the employees of Urgent Vet did such a fantastic job in such unfortunate circumstances, and I will be forever grateful! I will forever keep the card with her nose and paw prints, her clay paw print, and the note of condolences (so unexpected and so truly beautiful, thank you.)

We were evaluated thoroughly by a nurse and met with a knowledgeable vet. Our vet laid out two treatment options. I opted for the more aggressive treatment and my dog is much improved at 24H. I was able to get the information I needed to file a claim with pet insurance They called to check on her the next day and sent records to my vet

Our community cat Shadow suffered an injury from a scuffle with another kitty. He’s protecting his turf. We were seeking medical attention for him and researched and found this facility. We made a quick reservation on their website and arrived shortly after that. Check in was easy. Shadow was seen and treated. The assistant and Dr. were very kind and caring. Shadow was very calm and made himself at home in the waiting room. We 100% recommend this place.
