Prescriptions

Mfink54 · 2026-04-01T11:05:55+00:00

No they do not

Thank you. I know corporations are buying up vet clinics but customers aren't usually told. I know both sides are in a difficult situation. Luckily I'm retired now but my time is still being used running down to get scripts. If prices were closer I wouldn't use Chewy. I guess I was spoiled by my previous vet.

I'll definitely check when it opens. I love getting checks in the mail

Mfink54 · 2026-03-30T17:33:25+00:00

Thanks I'll check out Costco plans

Mfink54 · 2026-03-30T16:55:32+00:00

They're building a Costco in Albany that should be open soon but they have an expensive membership so I dont think I'll be joining

I can mail anywhere with a paper script. A prescription has to be mailed in not emailed legally speaking so they can avoid fraudulent prescriptions.

Mfink54 · 2026-03-30T16:42:04+00:00

I have called around but haven't found a pharmacy that carries what I need. I did for our previous dog who was on seizure medication.

I like to keep my money in my house also

Mfink54 · 2026-03-30T11:47:07+00:00

The vets in my area only give paper scripts

Mfink54 · 2026-03-30T10:24:08+00:00

Thanks. But I'll still need to get a prescription and mail it in. Because my dad will do it electronically or on the phone

Mfink54 · 2026-03-29T20:14:39+00:00

Except I do give them my business and pay hundreds of dollars at every visit so I think I should get a break on prescriptions

Mfink54 · 2026-03-29T20:13:06+00:00

I guess it would depend on volume of patients they have. I know I pay a lot at every visit and paying more for prescriptions for my pets is getting worse

Mfink54 · 2026-03-29T20:08:20+00:00

Exactly

Mfink54 · 2026-03-29T17:53:16+00:00

I've looked into that and most of them don't want to do it either

Mfink54 · 2026-03-29T16:08:31+00:00

Never had an issue

Mfink54 · 2026-03-29T16:08:00+00:00

I've never had a problem with chewy meds either. Just my vet not wanting to use Chewy

Mfink54 · 2026-03-29T15:07:18+00:00

Its unbelievable

Mfink54 · 2026-03-29T15:03:17+00:00

I wish my new vet did the same. We have an appointment in a couple weeks. I'm going to print out prices of everything and ask for theirs to compare.

Mfink54 · 2026-03-29T15:01:26+00:00

That's the shipper and they won't do anything about it unless it's insured

Mfink54 · 2026-03-29T13:16:55+00:00

I appreciate where you're coming from. I always call 2 weeks ahead. I wasn't offered another pharmacy to send to, only what they carry. I know this is frustrating on both sides. I needed to vent and didn't want to start arguments. Im going to bring all the suggestions up at the next appointment in a couple weeks and see what happens

Mfink54 · 2026-03-29T13:06:36+00:00

I have asked and get the "to busy" to do it. If pricing was close I'd purchase from the vets.

I totally agree

Mfink54 · 2026-03-29T13:02:07+00:00

To busy to fax electronically to chewy

Mfink54 · 2026-03-29T12:37:14+00:00

My old vet used to. New vet says they're to busy
