We were initially very impressed with Dr. Tom Wendel. So much so that we recommended him to several people. On his first visit he did a thorough job with the 2 horses we had him look at. It was a little odd that he had his toddler daughter with him, but he said he was having a daddy-daughter day so we thought this was nice of him and thought it was unusual for him to have his daughter. We also felt he was condescending, talking to us as if we knew nothing about horses, but assumed it was because he didn't know we were experienced horse owners and talked to us as if we didn't know anything about horses. After a few more visits for various things, he still had his daughter with him and she was getting into everything. I felt I had to baby sit her as he pretty much ignored her, letting her get into whatever she wanted. This was a dangerous situation for his daughter and created a liability for us. We began to realize this was the norm and made sure we had someone on hand to watch her. He also continued to condescend us and was also never available for emergencies. The last straw was when we had a mare foaling that was in distress and he refused to answer our phone calls. We lost the foal and would have lost the mare had it not been for another vet that did answer our calls. We will never use Dr. Tom Wendel again, and I would not recommend him to anyone and I advise anyone currently using him to find another vet before its too late. Very unprofessional!
