I am an integrative veterinarian, which means that I focus on preventative health and supporting natural healing or wellness through many holistic options in combination with traditional veterinary medicine. Preventative wellness and holistic care options include diet/food choices, nutritional supplements, acupuncture, herbal medicines, homeopathic remedies, essential oils and more.
Preventative and integrative veterinary medicine aim to support the animal’s health through diet, nutrition and lifestyle practices that allow our pets to be more resilient to disease and live better quality lives. In my opinion, the most balanced health care uses a combination of both conventional and holistic options. This is called Integrative Medicine.
It is my goal to empower pet parents to make better choices and take a more active role in promoting health and quality of life for their pets [citation].
