I've been taking my two cats to Mr. Vaerst since 2019 and I'm extremely satisfied. Competent, patient, friendly, pragmatic, and no unnecessary frills. Highly recommended.

I ended up seeing Dr. Vaerst with my PJR dog. She was limping, and there was a suspicion of a slipped disc. He took her leg in hand and... Ida can walk again. A fantastic vet, and I don't mind the old practice setup at all. The doctor is the most important thing... and he's top-notch. Thank you so much. Sarah Croé with Ida

I've only been to Dr. Vaerst twice, but I'm absolutely thrilled. He's a fantastic vet. He takes his time and is very friendly. Furthermore, the animal's well-being is his top priority, not a quick buck.

After being very satisfied with this vet for many years with my old bulldog, my new dog now goes to this vet as well! We are very impressed with his expertise, and the post-operative care, pre-operative consultation, and all other treatments were always effective and very professional. We are also very grateful for his honest assessment of treatments and their chances of success. Friendly, direct, and very competent vet! He knows what he's doing!
