How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Highlands Pet 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.

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.

Edit: I just saw the response. Its funny because you just admitted to giving a dental quote to a cat with no teeth, which is EVEN worse. My other cat I took with me had a full dental extraction before I even adopted him, so I get a gum cleaning is what he would have received for $600? I took my 2 cats here 3 weeks ago, one was just for an annual (which was $300 btw) and my other for a bump on her neck and issues with her bladder. The annual for my 1 cat was fine and normal thankfully, other than the inflated price. But my other one they were way more concerned about her bladder, which is very important and ive been treating for almost 3 weeks with their recommendations, which has not been helping. I was very concerned about the bump on her neck, i really thought it may be cancerous. They were not at all concerned about it and barely discussed it other than being quoted $1,200 for surgery, and i got another $600 quote for a dental cleaning, which I didn't ask for. I was still very concerned about the bump so I went back to her normal vet and it was literally A HUGE BLACK HEAD! They popped it right out and she was fine, and they gave me a different medication for her bladder to actually treat the cause, which is ANXIETY, which a month supply was only $12! Moral of the story don't cheat on your vet, Poplar Animal Hospital has been my go to for 4 year now, and they treated my old man's calicivirus successfully and they have single handedly extended his life expectancy. I will not be back. I gave 2 stars because they were very nice and friendly, and treated my cats with kindness.

I adopted a cat with a limb deformity, and we were looking for a good vet to go to that we could trust. They really care here, you can tell.I’ve been to vets that do not care in the past, and typically it’s evident right off of the bat. Everyone is very warm and welcoming, and they’ve been so informative and respectful through his initial exams to his leg amputation. They called the morning after surgery to check on him and are an amazing resource for any questions you may have. I cannot rate highlands high enough, Dr. Rice is the most genuine person that truly cares about the well-being of your pet, or in my case fin. :) This will be our vet for as long as we live here. Thank you guys so much for everything !

Dr. Condon and her support staff are EXCELLENT, by far the most conscientious, professional, knowledgeable, and friendly vet group I have found. I would not even consider going anywhere else for my pets' needs.

We have been patient for over 10 years and Dr. Condon and staff have always taken incredible care of our pets! We have had a few more urgent situations or complex diagnoses and they are always knowledgeable and looking up research to further support any nuanced questions. We highly recommend them for any of your pet needs!
