The staff here clearly isn't on the same page, which made the whole visit feel disorganized and frustrating. When I asked the doctor simple questions, I was met with condescension and a noticeable ego--rather than genuine care or clear answers. It felt more like an inconvenience to them than a service for my pet. Please value your pet and choose a vet who actually listens, shows compassion, and still has passion for what they do. This doctor seems burnt out and honestly needs to consider retirement.

This may be small to anyone else but meant so much to me!!!! My kitten got out last night and I thought someone might bring him to see if he was chipped... I asked and no one had. I had not even thought to leave my number, and the woman who answered the phone... asked me for the phone asked me to leave my number in case. I was so lost in that moment and that kindness put me in tears! Thank you so much for taking an extra second to secure my sense of peace in a moment of panic.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS. We had seen some of the poor reviews about Dr. Wethered but figured maybe it was just from some sour apples that are emotional about their pets. To say we deeply regret not going to another vet is an understatement. I am going to tell the entire story with zero details left out because I've noticed Dr. Wethered likes to respond to negative reviews defending his actions, and tends to claim that details were left out. We took our 13 year old rescue cat in for an anal gland abscess removal because we live nearby and hadn't had a chance to establish care with a highly reputable vet yet. Dr. Wethered had extremely poor bedside manners and showed very little care or compassion for our cat. He walked into the room, barely conversed with us, manhandled our cat to look at the abscess, said what he was going to do, and walked out. The communication and professionalism during the entire process got even worse from then on. We were called later that night by the receptionist and told to come in to take our cat home. We got there, once again Dr. Wethered was very short with us. He said that she needed to spend the night because she hadn't woken up from her sedation yet. His reasoning was that a cat that had been hit by a car was brought in after our cat, so they needed to prioritize the other cat. Super understandable, and he didn't charge us an overnight hospitalization fee which was appreciated. We weren't upset that she needed to spend the night (and the reasoning was very understandable), but had we not lived close by it would have been an inconvenience to be told to come in to take her home, only to be told she's spending the night with them once we got there. This was the first of numerous bad communications and it only got worse from here. As we were leaving that night the receptionist told us to come pick our cat up at 7:30 am the next day when they opened. The next morning we called around 7:45 to make sure our cat was ready to be picked up. The receptionist basically said "uhh I don't know, it may be closer to 9 am and I'll call you later when you can get her". Again, bad communication both within their business and with us. Around 9 am we got a call to go get her. We go and pick her up, and the receptionist told us that Dr. Wethered wanted to see our cat again the next day at his other pet hospital (Northwest Animal Hospital) to take out the drainage and make sure everything looked good. We had remembered that the previous day Dr. Wethered had said he wanted to do those things in 3 days, so we asked the receptionist if she was sure that the following day is when he wanted to see our cat. She said yes. Fast forward to the following day (today), and we take her into Northwest Animal Hospital. Dr. Wethered comes in, says everything looks good, and tells the tech to take out the drainage (basically a piece of gauze that is inserted into the area). The tech, whom was actually very nice, took out the drainage. There was quite a bit of blood coming out. Dr. Wethered comes back into the room shortly after she removes it, and says to her worriedly, "Did you take it out? It's only been two days." At this point they both looked at each other in a very concerned fashion, and then Wethered looks at us and says, "this should have been done two days from now." We told him that the receptionist at Ewing said he wanted it done today, and he said something along the lines of "I don't know why they would tell you that, this should have been done in two days". Seriously dude??? He then says they need to put the drainage back in, walks out, the tech (who we feel very bad for) took our cat to the back and we got to hear our cat cry out in pain repeatedly while they inserted the drainage back into her. The tech brought our cat back into the room and our cat was totally demoralized and would hardly get up from her slumped position on the table. We have never seen her like that and had to check that she was even breathing and alive. Wether

I brought a feral neighborhood cat to Ewing Veterinarian Hospital. The cat had been slowly showing signs of ill health over the winter months. He would hide at the sight of a human but was so sick he gradually initiated contact and petting in a desperate desire for help. I was able to scoop him up and put him in a cat carrier and take him to the vet. The veterinarian, Dr. Weatherer, was swift and accurate in his diagnosis which shockingly, was diabetes. It will be a long road back to health for this cat but Dr. Weatherer has shown a great deal of compassion in his willingness to assist in getting the cat back on the cat back on the road to a good life once again. This vet is devoted to his practice and our animals.

My dog was very sick and had was not eating and was barely drinking water. Dr. Wethered didn’t listen, barely looked at my dog and prescribed an anti-inflammatory. He did a blood panel and decided it was a knee issue. Didn’t listen or believe me that he was really sick. Then charged a fortune for the visit, bloodwork and the medication.I took my dog to a second vet who did listen. My dog’s lungs were filled with cancerous tumors. He was very very ill.I won’t go back to this location or to Northwest Animal Hospital ever again. If you do go, I advise filling the prescription somewhere else so you aren’t gouged. Their prices for prescriptions are astronomical.

Terrible experience! Do not recommend this vet. Terrible bedside manner,no compassion,no feedback,seems rushed and completely uninterested in the pet and the owner. Spent less than 5 minutes in the room in all 3 visits. The only thing he cares to talk about is you purchasing more. Took my dog to get the 3rd round of vaccines,she had a vaccine and was sent to the counter to pay. He came back and said he missed the rabies shot so she had to go back and have another one. Traumatic for a small dog and how do you forget a rabies vaccine but remember to sell me the heart worm medicine you already sold me last time.

Our 10 year old lab needed laryngeal tieback surgery which Dr. Wethered performed. He was able to come home the day after surgery with no side effects. I would definitely recommend Dr Wethered for anyone needing this surgery for their dog.
