Reviews
Today, on the advice of a physiotherapist, I visited Dr. Thelen's practice for the first time. I took advantage of her osteopathic knowledge and skills for my dog. If it were possible, I would give her 100 stars. So, five. I am thrilled with her, her expertise, and the assistant who is also a dog trainer and was there to help. I can highly recommend her. This review, strangely enough, was only posted yesterday. But it was three years ago. Today I was back at Dr. Thelen's with my Mastiff mix. Dr. Thelen helped my dog a lot, and she is feeling well again today. Unfortunately, I can only give 5 stars.
I went there with an emergency, and even though no one was there, she said I had to make an appointment. When I said, "Okay, then we'll make an appointment," she said, "No, go to the clinic first." With a waiting time of 1-2 weeks, my conclusion is that this woman just takes money and does nothing. This woman pretended to be friendly, but in reality, this creature has no human soul, just like her patient, a dog. I don't understand how someone can be so inhumane and not even try to look at the animal. If this masked woman standing in front of me had started arguing with me instead of simply making an appointment, then everything would have been fine.
It's a real shame. After years of good experiences with this practice, they refused to treat my dog because he's so difficult to handle. He's a fearful dog and needs a bite guard, but that wasn't exactly news. A seasoned vet who simply doesn't want to treat an animal. And no, my dog wasn't a fighting dog. But thankfully, there are other practices in Rheinbach, especially a very good one right in the city center.
Thank you for the time spent providing osteopathic treatment for our Giant Schnauzer. The result of the treatment is extremely positive. He's walking soundly again and feels years younger. I wouldn't have thought that so much could be achieved with such a gentle treatment. The long drive was well worth it. We'll gladly come back. We wish the practice team a wonderful summer vacation.
I am very grateful to Dr. Thelen for the professional help she gave my puppy yesterday. She was so calm and compassionate. I couldn't have made a better decision! It's incredibly rewarding for me to see my puppy so calm and balanced after your treatment! Many thanks also to the wonderful team!
