There is by far no better veterinarian. I live in the South of France, and after a long and frustrating journey from one vet to another animal hospital in France, where no one could figure out why my dog ​​was so ill, I made the long trip to see Dr. Dirks. After a thorough examination, he actually found the cause and was able to help my dog. Dr. Dirks is very solution-oriented and embraces the challenges of unusual illnesses. His staff is very kind and caring towards both animals and their owners. The 1300 km round trip was definitely worth it. I am incredibly grateful to Dr. Dirks and his team.

We are very satisfied with him. We've been going to him since he opened his practice in 2004 and have never had any problems with him; he has always been a great help to our animals. Especially with our current cat, who has struvite stones. He was treated immediately with emergency surgery and is doing much better. If there were more stars, I would give him even more. ❤️

We visited your medical practice on December 8th, 2025, and sadly had to say goodbye to our dog, Georgi. In this already very difficult situation, we found it extremely disconcerting that the young medical assistants in the next room were laughing loudly and continuously, clearly having a great time. At such a moment, we would have appreciated a bit more empathy, decency, and consideration. We understand that it is generally difficult to find good staff. Nevertheless, there are limits – and in this case, in our opinion, they were clearly exceeded.
