Report
Ewing Animal Hospital helped me get a much needed prescription for my dog. About a month ago, she had surgery which requires her to be on a special diet for the rest of of her life. Was told by surgical vet that we could purchase at Broadway Vet. Broadway Vet helped once, with proof of paperwork. After a month, we. needed a 2nd bag, Broadway Vet REFUSED to sell to me unless we scheduled ANOTHER UNNECESSARY exam.
Even with all LEGAL PAPERWORK AND PROOF, Broadway Vet refused. They're just money hungry. Ewing animal hospital just needed our paperwork, and had me out the door in less than 5 minutes. THANK YOU FOR HELPING US WITH OUR PRESCRIPTION NEEDS

We moved to Boise from Meridian recently and had to change vets. Our 7 year old Aussie normally hates going to the vet but she seemed very comfortable and happy here! I think because they allowed us to be in the room while she got her booster shots and check-up, she was much more at ease. The whole staff was very professional and also very nice. We're very glad we found Ewing!

I am so pleased with everything about this office and it's staff and services. I've been to several different places over the last few days trying to get my cat treated and taken care of with a broken femur. They have been amazing. Would recommend. Will be returning for all my pet needs.
