  1. Would you say this is a good "base-line" to use when getting estimates for vet care? Of course taking into consideration of geographical location, etc... Curious. This was interesting. Thank you.

    1. Hello,
      So sorry for the delay. I hope that this can serve as a baseline to help understand veterinary costs for services. I also think that veterinary medicine is way over due for a little transparency. Our clients are becoming more invested in their pets care and significantly more interested in veterinary medicine. Why then aren't we open about fees? I think every vet should be transparent. I also firmly believe it will save more lives.
      Thanks for reading!

  3. I really appreciate finding this list of prices. Vet care is complicated and this helps me understand the fees when my cat is sick. My vet is very good about explaining the whole process. Not only is there the surgery price but there are diagnostics, labs, and drugs, etc. before and after surgery. Subsequent followups need to be understood as well. My cat is facing a perineal urethrostomy. So thank you for the list!

  4. Our Vet is charging us $1200.00 to amputate one toe for our Labrador. This seems really high to me. Any thoughts?

    1. Hello,,
      I can't comment as I don't know how difficult this surgery might be based on your pets condition. I do think that it is always helpful to get a second opinion if you aren't comfortable with the first. At my clinic this surgery is probably about $600 to $800 without pre-op blood work and radiographs of the chest. Biopsy, which would be an additional $200.
