Tierarztpraxis am Futterhaus - Holzwickede

Our cat, who, like our dog, has been cared for at this practice for years, has contracted tapeworms. When we called to request a deworming treatment, we were told that the cat hadn't been seen for over a year and therefore couldn't be offered one without the vet seeing the animal. However, we are asked to make an appointment for next week... (weekend, 5-person household with a dog). I wonder if today's doctors are only interested in profit rather than the well-being of animals in need of protection. After all, you can easily order a deworming treatment from an online pharmacy. I would have understood if they had explained that the doctor currently has too many emergencies, but that the deworming treatment can be picked up, as was the case two years ago. I could have also brought the cat in afterwards, but turning the animal away shows me that this practice is only concerned with financial matters. A call later to another vet, problem solved, and I've switched vets! I'm truly annoyed and disappointed with this practice.

Thank you so much ♥️ Even though some time has passed, writing this review is still incredibly difficult for us; it feels like it was just yesterday. After saying goodbye (including the cremation), we needed time to even find the words to describe it. We had to let our Nala go with heavy hearts, and yet we want to say "thank you" from the bottom of our hearts. Nala was a French Bulldog we rescued from a breeder. She was being used for breeding and came to us in very poor condition. She was far too underweight and had several health issues (including Mediterranean disease, a mammary tumor, and skin problems). That she was able to have a wonderful life with us for over four years was a great gift. When the time came, we felt completely at ease every second. The veterinarian guided us, and especially Nala, with such calm, respectful, and empathetic care. You could tell it wasn't "just an appointment"; he was truly present, lovingly stroking her, gently explaining everything, and performing the euthanasia with the utmost dignity one could wish for in such a moment. Nala was calm, secure, and passed away peacefully. As hard as it is, it was a gentle farewell for our little ray of sunshine, and for that, we are incredibly grateful. 🥹 We would also like to urge everyone considering getting a dog: please do not support puppy mills or breeding practices that cause suffering. There are so many animals already alive and in need of help. Rescue instead of buying. We have another rescued dog and will gladly return with him. A veterinarian with heart, calm, and genuine empathy—absolutely recommended. Many thanks 🙏 also to the lovely woman who greeted us at the front desk.

We've been extremely satisfied customers with our dog for about four years. The team is incredibly friendly and competent. The vet exudes a wonderful calm and is highly skilled. 👍 We feel very comfortable and well cared for, and we gladly recommend this practice.

The best veterinary practice I've ever seen. I've since moved, but I still regularly travel from Hesse to this practice. The assistants are very friendly, and both vets are incredibly kind.

A super friendly team and a great vet; our dog is very calm for her when we're there. The vet explains everything he does. Please keep up the good work.
