Dr. med. vet. Mark Pokorny, Ulm

Dr Pokorny and his team are really wonderful. They love and care about the animals and always make time to see you in case of an emergency. We particularly apppreciated Dr Pokorny's attitude and help during our adventure with a young and gorgeous fox we found in our garden outside office hours and on the weekend. He helped us reach out to the right service to protect this beautiful and perfectly healthy animal ❤️❤️❤️

My kitten had a lot of discharge from his eyes and suddenly started losing control of his body. I took him to pokorny, and he said his eye secretions were normal, and said he suspected there was a problem with the kitten's brain development, and prescribed him an anti-inflammatory drug. After taking the medicine, the kitten's body movements began to improve, but there was still a lot of discharge from the eyes. Later, the kitten's eyes began to become vague, and pokorny prescribed some medicine for him. With the medicine, his eye secretions began to disappear(so I don't know why Pokorny said it’s normal that he had so much secretions from the eyes). My kitten also started licking the wall, but pokorny told me that it’s just because he’s still young and very playful. Based on his symptoms, I suspected that my kitten must have some inflammation and possibly FIP, so I asked pokorny if it is a viral infection and whether he can do a blood test for my kitten, but he refused, saying that such a small cat shouldn’t get seriously ill, so it should be fine. I chose to believe him. Not long after, the kitten suddenly became paralyzed. I immediately took him for a brain MRI. However, the results showed that the kitten's brain development was normal, but he had a lot of hydrocephalus. Combined with his other symptoms, the doctor said he has FIP, I injected him with the GS441 medicine on the same day. Unfortunately, within a few days, my kitten died. If pokorny could have taken a blood test for the kitten when he started showing these symptoms (two months ago) and alerted me the possibility of FIP, my kitten might not have died due to his incorrect diagnosis.

Very friendly vet. Takes his time with the animal and also with the owner. Gives great advice on the care of the animal. I would highly recommend him.
