Our 3 cats became patients of Dr. Hewitt when , Ralphie a stray cat who took up home on our deck for 6 months and we fed, officially became part of our family. We had been using another vet in the area but questioned her advice regarding not allowing Ralphie to interact with our other cats. Ridgefield Animal Hospital is actually the closest to where we live so we sought out 2nd opinion there and so thankful we did. We were prepared for a hefty vet bill as one would expect. That's not what we do found. What we found was an established veterinarian with many years experience who is still running a small vet clinic and not a full blown enterprise. Dr. Hewitt only performs tests and procedures when they are necessary and uses his experience to make his clinical assessments. It is obvious that he chose his profession for the right reasons and has adhered to those principles unlike other area vets who price gouge. His clinic has all the equipment that the more expensive ones have but he doesn't use it so he can drive up the cost of a visit. He speaks his mind and advices pet owners based on what he would do as a pet owner. The staff is great and there has never been a problem with getting an appointment regardless of how busy the day is. Ralphie thanks you Dr. Hewitt for explaining what the other would not do!
