Wondering how to find a great vet for you and your pet?
Ask yourself these 7 questions.
When you consider that your vet is an important member of your “pet family,” you’ll want to ask yourself the following questions to find a great fit.
-
Do I know anyone who uses this veterinary practice? You may want to ask friends, your pet’s day care provider, etc. for recommendations.
-
What’s the practice like? Schedule an initial visit/interview, bring in your pet, and see what it’s like there. For example, is it clean and easy to get to, with a friendly and professional staff? How do they handle your dog medical questions?
-
What are their billing policies? Ask about their rates, billing terms, and whether or not they accept pet insurance (if you have it).
-
Who delivers the primary care to my pet? If it matters to you, you may want a dedicated vet who will get to know your pet. Or you may be OK with seeing a different vet from the practice’s team at each visit.
-
What are the other staff members like, such as the technicians? Trained technicians often do the initial “intake and vitals” during each visit. Do they seem friendly and caring? That’s a very good sign.
-
What services do they offer? Basic medicine only, or also medical specialties and services? Do they run tests in-house or do they use an in-house lab? How do they handle emergencies when you need quick help (for example, how do they help you with sudden cat illness symptoms?).
-
Are dogs and cats separated in the practice’s entrances, exam rooms and recovery kennels?
These are just a few questions you can ask to find the right vet for you. If you have a certain philosophy about pet care, such as alternative medicine, you may have other questions as well. Make a list before you visit the clinic.
