My dog had apparently gotten into a fight with a raccoon and lost. In the process, the fur on his lower jaw was torn off. Dr. Kästner stitched this injury with 26 stitches. The wound healing went extremely well. Thank you.

A good vet, but not very talkative. I've never spent so much money at the vet. There was no bill either; I get the feeling they're just out to make money. Our dog had a high fever, and we ended up paying over €1000, and they couldn't even give us a proper diagnosis. They only offered further tests and cash. 😐

My cat Ruby was hit by a car. Dr. Kästner was still willing to care for her even after 8 p.m. Sadly, Ruby had to be euthanized, but Dr. Kästner gave me time to say goodbye. He was very kind and compassionate.
