To Our Valued Clients,

Updated No-Show & Cancellation Policy

Many of you are aware of the struggles many businesses face with staffing shortages. Veterinary care is no different. As a result, we must limit daily appointments due to the result of our own shortages. Our mission is, and always will be, to deliver the best and most comprehensive care to your pet. That means we also have to give our staff time off to regroup & refresh themselves to do just that. We value our clients' time, and we hope our clients value not only our staff's time, but the other clients that are waiting to have their pet seen. Having a no-show appointment means we could have seen another pet that may be sick. Because we are booking further out each week, this could mean the difference for that pet and their recovery time.

As a courtesy, please call our clinic to cancel appointments you cannot make. There may be other pets waiting to be seen. We have been forced to update our No-Show & Cancellation policy due to the amount of no-shows recently. Pre-payments will be enforced, per this policy, going forward when you no-show to an appointment. If you have not yet read and signed this updated agreement, please review, sign, and bring it with you to your next appointment. We have copies at the front desk as well for your convenience. Click here to see our updated policy. 

Dental Procedures

We are currently searching for a new doctor with a specialization in dental care. We wish the best of luck to Dr. Frances and her new career! At this time, we are only able to offer teeth cleanings and full mouth digital radiography to our established clients. Any further dental work will unfortunately need to be referred elsewhere at this time. Once our new doctor is settled, we will be back to offering routine care, teeth cleaning, full mouth digital radiography, and mass & tooth removal for our clients.

Informational Articles

The best veterinary care for animals is healthy nutrition and problem prevention. Becoming knowledgeable about preventative pet care is essential to the ongoing success of your pet's health. Please feel free to browse this site, particularly our informational articles. You are also welcome to subscribe to the newsletter, which is another great resource. Our hospital's location is easy to get to as well -- check out the map below! If you have any questions, please call (715) 241-7387, or email our staff at [email protected].

Thank you and be kind,

Meet Our Veterinarians

Learn Who We Are

  • Rachael Saeger, DVM

    Hi! I am Dr. Rachael Saeger, the newest addition to the teams at Metro Animal Hospital and Wittenberg Veterinary Clinic. My husband, Tim, and I just recently moved to the Merrill, WI area and are taking over his family’s homestead. I grew up in Las Vegas, NV before moving to Spokane, WA  for my undergraduate studies, where I studied Biology at Whitworth University. I then attended vet school at the University of Minnesota, graduating in 2020. I previously worked at two small animal clinics in Minnesota, focusing on preventative care, as well as exotic animal medicine. I have particularly strong interests in animal behavior, dentistry, nutritional therapy, and aquatic animal medicine. At home, Tim and I have four kitties (Atticus, Gus, Checkers, and Otis), as well as an aquarium. We are hoping to start up a bit of a homestead/hobby farm in the next couple of years where the animal menagerie will continue.

They have four children (all grown) and two French Bulldogs, as well as a dairy farm. Over the years they have had many birds, cats, and dogs, each having a special place in their family.
