Pricing
When price shopping, it is important to understand what it is you are shopping for, what is important to you and what factors you must consider when making your decision.
Lets use a routine puppy spay procedure as an example. While prices may vary greatly from clinic to clinic, consider asking the following questions to find out why there are such differences in price.
-
Is there a Registered Veterinary Technician on staff and present at each surgical procedure?
-
Is sedation included?
-
Are pain medications included?
-
Are IV fluids included?
-
Are post surgical exams and medications included?
-
Has screening tests such as blood work been completed to ensure your pet is healthy enough to undergo the procedure safely.
-
How is anesthetic monitoring done?
All these questions must be answered and compared when you price shop as they may greatly affect the quality of care for your pet. Ask yourself, what is important to you? At Point Grey Veterinary Hospital, we place the health and care of our patients as our highest priority.
