We had Monty and Rags in for their yearly check-up and shots and I am 
$284.00 poorer.  I know this clinic hires too many people and has all the 
up-to-date equipment but .....

I'm wondering what others pay.  The bill breakdown was:

Office Visit -  $42.40
Bordetella - 1 yr - $20.80
DHP - 3 yr - $20.80
Lepto - 1 yr - $20.80
Rabies 3 yr - $25.35
***************
I work at a vet and here is the breakdown of what we charge:

Yearly Wellness exam $27.30 (a "non-routine exam" for other issues is 
$41.00, which of course usually takes more of the Dr's time)
DHP-PV (covers Distemper, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, Parvovirus) $23.40
Rabies $15.20
Bordetella $16.40
Fecal $14.30
Heartworm test $29.90
eye medicine - basic antibiotic ointment -- usually about $10

we do not charge biohazard waste.

We've compared our prices of Heartguard and Frontline and we are cheaper 
than PetMedsExpress.....our vet tries to keep costs down as much as 
possible....so I am a lucky girl - not to mention I work there and get 
employee rates! *grin*
