About Exeter Veterinary Hospital

Welcome to Exeter Veterinary Hospital

Located in the heart of Reading, PA, Exeter Veterinary Hospital is your trusted veterinarian partner for the health and happiness of your pets. Whether you share your home with dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles, or other exotic companions, our team combines professional expertise, genuine compassion, and modern facilities to deliver exceptional veterinary care—day in and day out.

Our Commitment to Expertise and Professionalism

At Exeter Veterinary Hospital, veterinary expertise is more than a buzzword—it’s our promise. Clients consistently praise our doctors for their skillful diagnoses and treatments. As one satisfied pet owner put it, “Everyone is very nice, and the doctors really know what they are doing.” From routine wellness exams to complex health concerns, our veterinarians draw on years of training and hands-on experience to create clear, customized care plans. Dr. Achtel, in particular, earns accolades for his in-depth knowledge: “He seemed very knowledgeable about her condition.” Your pet’s health is in steady, capable hands here.

Compassionate Care for Every Pet and Owner

We understand that trips to the veterinarian can be emotional—whether your pet is facing surgery, chronic illness, or end-of-life decisions. Exeter Veterinary Hospital stands out for its empathetic, patient-first approach. “Both the nurse and doctor were EXTREMELY compassionate during this hard time for both me and my husband,” shared one grateful client. Our team takes time to listen, explain every step of treatment, and advocate for your pet’s best interests. During end-of-life care, we provide private rooms and sensitive guidance to help you through one of life’s most difficult moments: “I could not have asked for a better or more compassionate staff.”

State-of-the-Art Facilities and Pristine Environment

Cleanliness and comfort are cornerstones of a positive veterinary experience. At Exeter Veterinary Hospital, you’ll find spotless exam rooms, gleaming surgical suites, and welcoming waiting areas. “The place is very clean… all the time,” notes a repeat visitor. Our commitment to a hygienic, well-organized facility assures you that your pet is receiving care in a safe, professional setting.

Comprehensive Services and Specialized Expertise

While we excel at core veterinary services—wellness exams, vaccinations, dental care, and surgical procedures—our expertise extends into specialized fields. Dr. Kline, for instance, is a standout in exotic pet care. Rabbit and reptile owners frequently applauded her rare specialization: “Dr. Kline is extremely personable, intelligent, and really listened to and addressed our questions.” For clients with less common pets, this level of knowledge offers peace of mind that your unique companion is in expert hands.

Meanwhile, Dr. Seiple’s dedication to advocating for patient well-being has won widespread praise. “He explained that while the decision was up to me, he was in great health,” said one cat owner after a comprehensive exam. Whether it’s clarifying treatment options or simply reassuring a worried pet parent, our veterinarians go above and beyond.

Clear Communication and Flexible Appointments

We know that emergencies don’t wait for office hours—and neither do we. Many clients appreciate our ability to accommodate same-day emergency visits or walk-ins for new patients. “They squeezed us in the same day… no other local vet would agree to see him,” said another relieved owner. Minimal wait times and a smoothly run reception area reflect our dedication to timely, attentive service. At the same time, we acknowledge that busy front-desk operations can occasionally lead to scheduling hiccups or record-keeping oversights. Rest assured, we’re actively refining our appointment systems and staff training to ensure every visit begins and ends with a seamless check-in process.

Transparent Pricing and Billing

Understanding the cost of veterinary care is essential for pet owners. Exeter Veterinary Hospital strives for clarity and fairness in billing. Many clients applaud our detailed, itemized receipts and willingness to answer any questions: “They always provide a detailed itemized receipt,” noted one reviewer. We also recognize that opinions on pricing vary, and we’re committed to discussing treatment options, costs, and payment plans openly—so there are no surprises when you pick up your pet.
