How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Crofton Veterinary Center

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.

Are these the type of people you want working and caring for your animals. we have had 11 of our pets go to Crofton veterinary for blood work, vaccines and grooming and there annual check ups. My dog had a urinary track infection the vet had seen her and gave her medicine they called and said if we would want the medicine that way they can get them ready for a pick up i said yes that is fine ill have someone pick them up they said 30 minutes. I had my assistant go and pick them up and they let her know they were not ready and they couldn't tell her an exact time when they would be ready for pick up. I guess the vet didn't like that i asked them to have them ready after we had spoken about them being ready in 30 minutes and now is not allowing us to bring our pets real nice real animal people i don't think so

It's never fun taking our little girls to the vet, but this vet was amazing! They were friendly to our fur babies and gave us a lot of great health advice! Our one kitty was even brave enough to explore the office while she waited since she felt very safe there. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great place!

I drive from Baltimore City to take my dog Lewie to this wonderful group of vets. Each one is warm and caring. When I had to say goodbye to my cat in January, they were amazing, in the office and with follow-up cards and phone calls. I am so happy with Crofton Vet Ctr.

Had my first visit with my new puppy. I picked Crofton Veterinary Center because it is relatively close to my house. Our first visit was good. The staff was friendly and helpful. I did not have to wait for a long time in the examination room to see the vet as I had happen in other places. They were helpful and answered all my new puppy questions. I'm glad I picked them to be the care provider for my new pup. Update at 4 years old. Brought my "puppy" back in for his vaccines. Staff is still great and friendly. I'm still happy to call Crofton Veterinary, my dogs health provider. Still, hopefully, we only need to go in for our monthly meds and nothing else until we are due for some regular care.
