Reviews
Our German Shepherd had severe diarrhea two days before Christmas Eve, and unfortunately, it didn't get any better! I then called Mr. Pfetsch on December 24th and was able to come in that morning! Mr. Pfetsch was very kind and competent! We're glad we received help again, as we were on holiday at the campsite!
My regular vet – who knows his stuff beyond words and who, thank goodness, I can see at short notice 🥰 I'm happy for any advice and appreciate his many years of experience! Hopefully, he'll stay with us for a long time to come.
A very friendly and very competent vet. I'm coming from Stuttgart with my dogs and hope that Dr. Pfetsch will continue to run his practice for a long time. No other vet has ever gained my trust like this.
We were on holiday at a campsite and our dog had a bad ear infection! We got an appointment the same day and were seen immediately without any waiting! Our dog was fine again after two days! We hope we won't need a vet too often, but we can definitely recommend Mr. Pfetsch!
We have been patients of Dr. Pfetsch for 3.5 years with our seriously ill white miniature bulldog, as well as with our 11-year-old French Bulldog, and before that with our Doberman – a total of 8 years. We are so grateful that Dr. Pfetsch is always there for us. Whether it's weekends or holidays, Dr. Pfetsch is always available. He is always honest and, due to his many years of professional experience, so competent that we trust him completely. He fights with us as long as he can – but he always has the animal's well-being in mind, and when fighting is no longer possible, he will support us in that as well. THANK YOU
