________________________________________________________ The Costs of Quality Veterinary Care |
| While the costs of
wellness care (vaccinations, heartworm prevention, spays and
neuters) are still very reasonable, it may surprise you to know how
much it costs for non-routine medical or surgical care. Did you know that a surgery for a common ligament rupture in the knee (ACL) can cost $400-800? If your pet gets pancreatitis and stays in the hospital on IV's for 3-4 days, it could cost $400-500. Suppose "Samantha" escapes from the house and is hit by a passing car. Say she sustains a fractured femur (upper thigh) and pulmonary hemorrhage. Costs for a 4 day stay, emergency care, and leg surgery could exceed $1000. Most people are aware that there is no government sponsored financial assistance for pets, unfortunately. If a major illness or injury with your beloved pets occurs, where can you turn for financial assistance? There are banks and other loaning institutions, but you must pay back a loan. Perhaps Pet Insurance is worthy of your consideration. One of the first such insurance companies in existence is Veterinary Pet Insurance. This was founded by a veterinarian (Jack Stephens, DVM) who saw too many wonderful pets not getting the care they needed because of monetary reasons. For more information click below: |
