Dr.med. vet. Steffen Knauer

Dr. Knauer is a very competent and experienced veterinarian. I've been taking our cats to his practice regularly for vaccinations and any necessary treatments since 2012. Appointments are readily available, and the prices are fair. He's very kind and understanding. His experience makes him highly accurate when it comes to diagnoses. I feel my cats are in good hands there.

A very friendly and easy-going veterinarian. The price is also perfectly reasonable. Thank you very much.

We feel very well cared for here! Whether it's a big or small issue, he always has a sympathetic ear and helpful advice. What's great is that we can get an appointment quickly (even in the evenings and on weekends), are seen immediately, and always alone, meaning the dog and cat don't meet right away like at other vets. He's very thorough, professional, and friendly! Even when accompanying us to the other side of the room, he finds the right words and shows genuine respect for the animal! Thank you so much for that, and also for the home visit. A definite recommendation!

Now that our kitten was put down by Mr. Steffen Knauer after 5 months, I'd like to share my thoughts. We moved here to Welzow in 2020. Since then, our kitten has been under this man's care. The first injection went very poorly. A lot of blood from our kitten ran onto this table, which was equipped with PVC. It was then wiped away with a rag. Since other veterinarians were further away, we unfortunately went back to him. A total of about 12 times. The cat started to gag but couldn't vomit. She was given an injection, and Mr. Knauer said it would be better by the evening. But it kept getting worse. So, injections were given every now and then. After 2 days, she was barely moving. We went back after a call. Since she was just suffering, we decided, in tears, to end it. Mr. Knauer did it. He also had a long private phone call. He said he was wrong about the diagnosis and that since I'd already paid so much, I only had to pay €60. I didn't have anything with me, so he gave me a plastic bag, put it in, and handed it to me. I wasn't allowed to leave the cat there because he had another client. I didn't get a receipt for any of the treatments. When I asked him about it, he told me he doesn't care about paperwork but will issue one upon request. I also feel guilty for not having seen a doctor who loves animals. Because my kitten could still be alive. I'm 74 and have had 6 dogs and 3 cats during that time, but I've never had such an animal lover. And I wouldn't wish that on anyone. The prices for treatments have also risen dramatically in recent years. Unfortunately, we later learned from many Welzower residents what people thought of this practice. The practice from the outside and inside. You'd think your pet was being treated in a closet. There's no waiting room. No regular opening hours either. Only by appointment. But that won't bring our kitten back. You shouldn't believe what relatives tell you. It might be enough for an annual injection, but in an emergency, my advice would be to go to another practice. We will avoid this practice in the future.

Dr. Knauer is always helpful and always has a sympathetic ear for the problems of his four-legged patients and their owners. I have been taking my animals to him for treatment for 10 years and have only had positive experiences. I highly recommend Dr. Knauer without hesitation.
