Consider coverage limits, deductibles, reimbursement percentage, waiting periods, and which conditions are covered. Dr. Khabra can discuss what to look for but cannot recommend specific companies.
For many pet owners, yes. Insurance provides peace of mind and financial protection against unexpected illnesses and injuries. It’s most valuable when purchased while your pet is young and healthy
Yes, though premiums are higher and pre-existing conditions won’t be covered. It can still provide value for new conditions that develop.

Dr. Khabra can assess your pet’s body condition score. Generally, you should be able to feel (but not see) ribs, see a waist when viewed from above, and see an abdominal tuck when viewed from the side.
Reducing portions of regular food can lead to nutritional deficiencies. Weight management diets are formulated to provide complete nutrition at reduced calories.
Yes! Prescription diets are scientifically formulated to manage specific health conditions. Many pets show significant improvement with dietary management alone or in combination with medications.
It depends on the condition. Some require lifelong dietary management (kidney disease, food allergies), while others may be temporary (post-surgical gastrointestinal support).
They can be, but often offset medication costs and prevent complications that would be more expensive to treat.
We stock prescription diets on-site for your convenience. This ensures freshness and proper storage, and you can get food the same day it’s prescribed.
We offer transition strategies and can try different formulas or flavors. Most pets adapt within a week or two
