In the past,this office was quite hectic due to the amount of patients that were scheduled. But,Dr Wagenknecht doesn't work with Barc anymore,so the patient load has been reduced. Even when time was limited,I was always happy with the service provided. He is very quick and efficient with spay and neuter. I've never had a large aftercare bill following a surgery he's performed. The animals actually came from the office happy and active as if nothing had occurred,and I would have to contain them to keep them from playing too much. In the middle of a rushed morning,he took the time to speak with me directly on the phone and apologize for a misunderstanding that occurred with the front office. He also briefly spoke with me in person to address concerns I had about anesthesia,even though it was bustling another morning. He truly wants you to do right by your pet and will work with you to assist in costs to provide the service your pet needs. I don't know about the situations concerning the bad reviews,but I am pleased with his experience. An affordable vet that can perform delicate surgery is hard to come by. I suggest having your conversation planned if you are concerned about not having enough time to speak. I don't think he's rude at all. Perhaps he's just short with nonsense.

Terrible experience! understaffed, hectic, ANYTHING but friendly, and the vet has 0 bedside manner. Prices are low but NOT WORTH IT.

We took our dog here when I first adopted because the rescue used this vet. It was not a good experience. He did nothing but try to push purina dog food on us (we use blue buffalo), would not answer any of my questions about diet and nutrition, and spoke the entire time to my husband, rather than answering my questions directly (women will recognize this type). The exam itself was quick and rushed. He asked me five times if our dog is spayed, in spite of having the paperwork in front of him. Our dog comes from a trauma situation and he was very rough in handling her, making sudden gestures around her face and head. Our dog's problem was not properly diagnosed or explained and we had to take her elsewhere. The facilities were less than spectacular. I will say that, aside from the vet, the staff was very nice. I understand that this vet is cheap and that is a draw for myself and many other people, but I wouldn't take an animal I hated to this clinic, much less a beloved family pet.

We have gone to Dr. Wagenknecht for over 20 years and have NEVER had a negative experience with him or his staff. He has taken care of every dog we have ever had. He's gotten them through some rough probelms and gotten us through also. He is very upfront and honest with you but he also sincerely cares about the animals and how they are being cared for. His staff is as caring as he is. His appointments are always on time unless an emergency comes in. Which is understandable to me since I have been that emergency more than once. I really love the way Doc cares about the welfare of the animals and making sure they are fed and taken care of properly. Very caring and will be our vet until he retires.
I have read the negative revies in this column and I find them hard to imagine. I have been with him for over 20 years and NEVER had an experience anywhere close to what they say happened to them.
They are GREAT at the St Louis Pet Clinic. And they just moved into a bigger more convenient location.

I have taken my pets to the St. Louis Pet Clinic since it opened. They are very caring there. Dr. Wagenknecht really takes the time to listen to what is going on with my pet. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
