Latest Update (26-3-2019): I was contacted by the new owner, who happened to be the one vet who performed marvelously in this story. She has reassured me that there have been big changes at this veterinarian. It is now under completely new management since I was there. --- Summary: Incompetence and arrogance led to a grave misdiagnosis of my cat and huge amount of personal emotional distress. Details: My cat is a pure breed 'heilege birman' and had diarrhoea and no appetite/thirst for 2/3 days. He'd lost 1/5 body weight and was obviously in great pain but had NO fever. They ran a few blood tests, all negative. He was sent home and immediately got worse with vomiting. I took him back and they gave him fluids. Still no diagnosis. He was sent home, with no guidance on what to do, with no medication, and no guidance for care. He was still not eating or drinking. Later, the 'senior' vet diagnosed him (remotely, without seeing him) with FIP - a 100% fatal disease. This upset me massively, as you can imagine. Still they offered no treatment, the tests for FIP took one week. During this time, they would not do other tests - even though I pushed them on this. To be frank, I found the senior vet's attitude to be arrogant and disdainful. FIP test eventually came back as negative. Only then did they do other tests and it became apparent he had pancreatitis. Again he was sent home with no treatment except morphine. By this time, I was completely fed up and an independent vet had informed me of her anxiety at the lack of care shown. She recommended Caressa and I immediately took my cat there. The vets at this new clinic responded promptly and he was indeed in bad condition. They quickly diagnosed infection of the gallbladder and pancreas (which might have spread during the >week being untreated). They also stated that this is a more common ailment of pure breed cats. Result: My cat is now getting the best treatment at Caressa hospital and is improving, which is great. Recommendation: If you have a pure breed, do NOT go to Westerpark, they are clearly uninformed, incompetent, and reticent to do proactive tests. I found the senior vet's attitude to be highly unprofessional. I told him personally I was taking my cat to another vet and he basically said 'good riddance'.

Couldn't recommend this practice highly enough. Every member of staff and Drs I've had the pleasure of meeting goes above and beyond to help their patients and owners. We've been entrusting them with our pup's care since he was 8 weeks old, and it was the best decision we could have made. Our puppy came home from the breeder with several (undisclosed) stomach issues, which was incredibly stressful on us, first-time dog parents. Doctor Louis went out of his way to get to the bottom of the issue. He not only spent several appointments patiently addressing all our questions and concerns, but also followed up regularly to guide us through our pups stomach sensitivity. If just like us, you're looking for a caring and trustworthy Veterinarian with a modern approach to pet wellness, I'd urge you to look into Dierenkliniek Amsterdam.

I can say that I took my little dog to several highly regarded clinics in Amsterdam and surrounding cities. Until one day I had the happiness to find Dierenkliniek Amsterdam. And since then I didn't need to look for another clinic. They are excellent professionals, with a good price and a spectacular service. Finally, Shophie, my little dog has the treatment that she needs. I am so happy with the results. I would especially like to thank the veterinarian Louis for all his dedication and for doing your work with so much love. Always willing to help and very careful toward his work. I'm very grateful to him and to the Dierenkliniek Amsterdam clinic. You are sensational.

Went here just for some deworming for my Collie, the key word being collie, I specifically ask the vet if the one she suggested was safe for him, she proceed then to say. 1. The pills is the new version of a well known, safe pill we already used, Wich turned out to be a lie. 2. The pull is safe for all breeds, no problem on collies or other Sheppard's. Came home, check online information and it is listed ver big as a contraindication... "DO NOT GIVE TO COLLIE BREEDS". Very disappointed that a veterinary would take this so lightly, even when directly asked about it. I would avoid this place unless you have no other option.

mijn hond had een teek , maar volgens 2 dierenartsen hier dus niet, was de simpele teek een " groeisel" > dus "zgn operatie nodig, 500 euro aub, oh sorry mevrouw het was toch gewoon een teek, maar de operatie kost wel 500 e , mijn hond loopt mank sinds die operatie. nu ze zo last heeft van die poot waaraan ze onterecht aan geopereerd wordt ben ik weer heel boos op deze praktijk. dit kan gewoon echt niet. dat een hond zo mank loopt na t verwijderen van n simpele teek voor 500 euro. absurd. nare gestresste dokter ook. echt zwaar niet aan te raden voor lieve leuke dieren die gewoon gezond zijn maar iets kleins hebben.

Sarah (vet) has a big hearth for the animals she takes care off. She is animals first, money last (which is rare these days...) She was always involved with the treatment she prescribed, always calling at the end of the prescription to follow up on the current status of the animal. In the end we lost our little friend, she also cried a little (saw her eyes glinstering aswell...) and they sended us a hand written letter of condoleance... It are these little details that make her and the "dierenkliniek" a good place where u can bring ure little friends ;)

Took my cat there with an infected paw, it stank from infection and had an open wound on it. The vet inspected 3 out 4 paws and said he was fine, I could not be sure the vet had not inspected all 4 paws so I gave them the benefit of the doubt. Upon returning home, I realised how bad the infection was and had to take him back. Overall, it was a careless treatment which left me feeling helpless and unimpressed.

Ben ontzettend blij met deze dierenartsenpraktijk! Mijn kat Panter was laatst te grazen genomen door een andere kat en waarschijnlijk zaten er daardoor gaatjes in haar luchtpijp (gebeten). Was een beetje in paniek toen ik op de praktijk aankwam, omdat ik mij zo ontzettend veel zorgen maakte om Panter. Dierenarts Sarah wist mij helemaal gerust te stellen. Panter is goed geholpen en helemaal hersteld!

Nadat mijn liefste poes Wappie een tand moest laten trekken. Bleef de ontsteking van haar tandvlees. Toen ik naar de andere dierenarts ging bleek dat er veel meer getrokken moest worden omdat de op deze manier de ontsteking zou blijven. Slechte dierenarts dus.Heeft me uiteindelijk dus erg veel geld gekost voor iets wat niet eens goed gedaan is. Nooit meer deze arts.

I visited this clinic today to carry out all the travel procedures for our cat Frederik (Chip, Rabies Vaccine, Passport and Review) and I am really happy with our choice. Great team of really pleasant professionals, also very well priced. We will return without hesitation when we are in Amsterdam. Thank you very much for solving all our doubts.

My chocolate Siamese cat Salto was having asthma and this year it didn't get better...I think he had a tumor but that wasn't clear . in the end 14 year I had to put him asleep... He had a adventures life. Living in Málaga Valencia and Amsterdam.. I miss him () And the vet was very very nice.. They gave me enough time to say good by. ()

Friendly veterinary, they threat your pet like a family member and pay attention when you make an appointment because they have 2 locations. The location of this one is great since it is close to some small shops where you can grab some fresh fruits and legumes. Cheaper and better than Albert Heijn, and you help small business owners.

This lovely, friendly vet practice helped us at the last moment after another vet let us down. I was really impressed by the standard of service and the great value price. My dog came out relaxed and happy, and I left happy too. Highly recommended and I'll be back next time my dog needs anything else in Amsterdam.

wat een fijne persoonlijke benadering in deze kliniek aan de Frederik hendrikstraat. je hebt het gevoel dat alles er aan gedaan wordt het welzijn van je huisdier te waarborgen. dat geeft een veilig gevoel. de nazorg is ook perfect en mn hond Khyra rent er naar binnen van blijdschap en dat is goed teken

Love this clinic! Been here many times with my puppy for all sorts of things (vaccinations, stomach problems, eye infections) and always gotten the best help. My puppy gets excellent treats and cuddles, and never notices a thing during treatments! I would give this place six stars if I could ⭐

Net zoals aan het Columbusplein en aan de Spaarndammerstraat biedt ook deze locatie super zorg aan je dierenvriend. Deskundige en behulpzame dierenartsen en -assistenten die je altijd vriendelijk ontvangen. Mijn herder Raja vindt het altijd een feestje bij Dierenkliniek Amsterdam!

All the personnel and doctors are very attentive and really care for the animal. Special thank you to Esther van Neste, the best vet we've had who not only patiently explains difficult diagnostics but also supports us in the most caring way along the lengthy treatment.

Fijne dierenartsen met hart voor de dieren en een flinke dosis gezond verstand om de balans te zoeken tussen ingrijpen en de natuur haar werk te laten doen. Ik was erg bezorgd maar Pluisje is weer helemaal in orde na jullie zorgen, de operatie en wat rust. Top!

Erg fijne dierenarts. Onze hond Chef heeft al veel te verduren gehad op zijn jonge leeftijd maar deze dierenartsen denken met je mee, denken goed na over de geschiedenis van het dier en nemen vanuit daar een besluit. Chef gaat na alle … Meer

Super lieve en betrokken dierenarts en -assistente! Trekken veel tijd uit voor goede overdracht en al je vragen. Heel tevreden, zeker nu je niet mee naar binnen kunt: ze geven je een heel veilig en vertrouwd gevoel.

Great practice with qualified vets. Sarah is an amazing doctor with passion for making pets and their owners happy. Price quality ratio is average for Amsterdam. I recommend this practice!

We had again a good experience here. Sara is a professional, empathic and sensitive veterinarian. Now our elderly Lady cat can enjoy a better quality of cat life after the tooth surgery.

Hele fijne kliniek met deskundig en leuk personeel. Ik kom er graag met mijn dieren! Voel me er altijd op me gemak en ze nemen de tijd voor je ook als het heel druk is! Ga zo door!

Wat een aandacht en liefde voor mijn lieve hondje...en mij. Ja, ze kosten wel iets meer....maar ze gaan dan ook echt voor jouw huisdier!. Zeer veel goede ervaringen met hun.

Afrader, blijf daar weg, wordt geen tijd voor je beestje genomen (snel,snel) onvriendelijk en onkundig personeel!!! Voor je het weet kom je zonder huisdier terug!!!

People are nice and polite but there are other problems. Mainly: don't give price indications before appointments or procedures. I never knew what the bill will be.

Professional, knowledgeable and kind staff who give clear explanation about the diagnosis, how to treat it and I can do. We always go here with our two cats.

Wat een fijne praktijk me hondjes worden hier zo goed geholpen heel fijn En zeker een pluim voor de leukste Amsterdamse dierenarts assistent Nanda.. ..

Bij nood geen plek voor je KITTEN. Iedere dierenarts weet toch dat de kleintjes heel snel achteruit kunnen gaan. Lekker veel dierenliefde hier.

Super personeel ! Erg meelevend en staan altijd voor je klaar. Denken met je mee en denken aan het welzijn van mijn huisdieren. Zeer tevreden.

Op geld beluste praktijk zonder liefde voor dieren. Totaal tegenovergestelde van de vorige dierenarts die in hetzelfde pand gevestigd was.

Fijne dierenkliniek met veel aandacht voor dier en eigenaar. Mijn hond loopt er graag binnen en is er altijd op haar gemak.

The vet is so friendly and professional and I always feel like my pup is in the best hands, he also loves to go here!

Super ze hadden toch nog n plekje voor mijn hondje terwijl ze t zo druk hadden.En altijd zo betrokken en vriendelijk

We moved from Chile and they helped us to issue our dog’s passport. They are very friendly and professional!

Zeer fijn en kundig geholpen met de sterilisatie van onze twee poezen (zowel mannetje als vrouwtje). Dank!

Very helpful English speaking Vet who was very professional in dealing with our Guineapig. Recommended.

Our small dog, Idli has been very well taken care of whenever we visit this location. Thank you!

I really appreciate the way they took the time to help me prepare my cat to change country

Goed geholpen door de dierenarts luister goed naar wat het probleem is bij je huisdier

Hele fijne praktijk met vriendelijk betrokken personeel. Mijn hondje komt er graag.

Al jaren verzorgen Esther en Nanda met veel liefde onze honden! Een super team

Esther, de allerleukste dierenarts van Amsterdam met een passie voor paarden.

Top plek! Hele lieve mensen, ze hebben mij en mijn hondje zo goed geholpen.

Professional and knowledgeable, they really seem to care and love for pets
