Although veterinary care is still a bargain compared to comparable human medical care (just compare the cost of a hysterectomy for a woman to the same surgery for a cat, or even a large dog), it can still be a struggle for many of our clients to provide their animal companions with the level of care they deserve. We understand how difficult it can be to be faced with unexpected veterinary expenses and want to help our clients plan for and manage the costs involved in caring for their pets. Veterinary insurance makes it much easier for many clients to provide the care their pets need. Care Credit offers interest free and low interest payment plans, making it easier for you to pay your veterinary bills. And for certain low-income populations of clients, charitable funds mare available to help with unexpected veterinary expenses.
