Dr. Nate Whiting grew up in the west, spending time in western Colorado, southern Arizona, and coastal Washington before making his way to Cache Valley and Utah State University to begin his undergraduate education. After a brief hiatus from education, he earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Biology from Eastern Washington University and returned to Cache Valley to work in a private research laboratory for almost 10 years before deciding to once again pursue his goal of becoming a veterinarian. Dr. Whiting is a proud graduate of the Utah State/Washington State College of Veterinary Medicine, earning his DVM in 2017. Following graduation Dr. Whiting worked for two years at a rural mixed practice in Cache Valley, then three years at a small animal practice in Box Elder County, before coming to Mountain West Veterinary Specialists in the fall of 2022. He thoroughly enjoys the variety of interesting and difficult cases he encounters working in emergency medicine.

In his spare time Dr. Whiting enjoys spending time with his wife, two sons, and four daughters. He also enjoys golf, touring National Parks, wilderness backpacking, working on public policy involving veterinary medicine, working with veterinary students in the Clinical Communications course at Utah State, and coaching high school wrestling.
