Holistic Vet, Dr. Marcie Fallek, DVM, CVA

I cannot express how grateful I am for Dr. Fallek's expertise and holistic approach to veterinary care. My journey with my dog, Lulu, was nothing short of a miracle, thanks to her. When Lulu's liver enzymes skyrocketed to over 200 times the normal levels, my heart sank. The traditional vet's diagnosis was grim, suspecting cancer, but uncertainty clouded their treatment plan. Antibiotics, both oral and injected, and the possibility of a biopsy were recommended, yet the true nature of Lulu's ailment remained elusive. To make matters more perplexing, my Manhattan-based vet, renowned as one of the best, couldn't provide definitive answers. In my belief in holistic medicine and after extensive research, I stumbled upon Dr. Fallek. Our initial appointment with her lasted over two hours, during which she delved into every facet of Lulu's life. It was a thorough and compassionate examination that instilled confidence in her approach. Taking a leap of faith, I decided to follow Dr. Fallek's recommendations diligently. Fast forward six weeks, and the results were nothing short of astonishing. Lulu's liver enzyme levels had stabilized, with two of the three now completely normal and the third nearly there. It was a miraculous transformation that defied expectations. I wholeheartedly endorse Dr. Fallek to anyone seeking exceptional veterinary care. Her dedication and expertise have not only prolonged Lulu's life but also enriched it. Thanks to her, I now have the gift of a few more cherished years with my beloved dog. Thank you!!!

Dr Fallek helped us when our dog Delilah was diagnosed with a brain tumor. We were told she had 3-6 months to live but we managed to extend her life a year after diagnosis. Unfortunately, she lost her battle last April 15, 2021 and we had to euthanize her. Dr Fallek was always responsive to our calls when we needed assistance. We lived in Ottawa, Ontario at the time and moved to Vancouver, Washington through her treatment and Dr Fallek still worked with us even with the time difference. Thanks to Dr Fallek, Delilah was able to spend her last few months in her birth state.

I wish I knew about holistic veterinary care years ago. I believe if I had, I would have been a better pet parent and could have provided my pets with far better quality of life than what a mainstream veterinarian can offer. When we adopted Hazel in February 2021, we knew she was coming to us as a mature dog with some serious health conditions. She was heart worm positive and had mammary tumors, due to not being spayed yet. Despite her medical issues, Hazel quickly showed us what a sweet, polite, goofy, happy dog she is. We loved her immediately. After countless treatments and surgeries, which were all accompanied by both prescription and over the counter drug protocols, it seemed like Hazel’s medical issues were not improving, but instead multiplying. In the first 12 months of adopting Hazel, we brought her to our “trusted” vet at least twice as many times. It was heartbreaking to watch Hazel get worse with each visit. Finding Marcie was answered prayer. Hazel had overwhelming medical issues and the accompanying vet records to go with them. Marcie took the time to be thorough, not only with all of Hazel’s paperwork, but also in getting to know Hazel and her personality. My testimonial would be too long to if I outlined every area in which Hazel’s health has been improved since trusting in Marcie and the holistic process of trial and error. I will share two high points that are nothing less than a miracle. First, in early 2021, we were told that a recent ultrasound revealed a mass on Hazel’s liver and that it was no doubt cancer. Multiple blood panels showed her liver values to be off the charts, and getting worse each time the panel was run. We started working with Marcie in May 2022. In November 2022, we had a panel run to see where she was at. Hazel’s liver values were completely normal. Completely normal. In August of 2022, Hazel was in really bad shape. She had a high fever that wouldn’t come down, her belly was swelled up and was huge, and she was lethargic. In the middle of the night, we brought her into a traditional vet for emergency help and fluids. That day, Marcie stayed close by phone listening to updates and helping us to interpret what the other vets were saying. By the end of the day, the traditional vets were recommending euthanasia. We brought Hazel home and agreed we would give her until the next day to see how she was doing. I even went as far as researching at home euthanasia services in our area. Agreeing that we would not let Hazel suffer, Marcie told me she didn’t know what could be done, but that she would try. Over the next 24 hour period, Hazel showed amazing signs of improvement. Her fever went down, her belly started to shrink a little, and she started showing more energy. In the days and weeks that followed, we tried various remedies to help her continue to heal. Here were are, it’s almost December and our sweet, happy, goofy girl is still with us. She is thriving. We are so thankful to the Lord for bringing Marcie Fallek and holistic veterinary care into our lives. From the bottom of our hearts; Thank you, Marcie.

I cannot say enough good things about Marcie Fallek. 5 stars are simply not enough! I have a rescue dog who always had issues with his stomach and anxiety. He then developed arthritis and then very suddenly was unable to walk due to IVDD. I was a wreck and felt helpless and frustrated with our previous vet as the treatments just seemed to make my dog worse. I found Marcie and consider myself lucky that she had time to see me in the first place. Her treatment style is thorough, efficient and most importantly- effective. After one session, my dog showed improvement, and by the 8th session he was healed! Marcie then helped with my dogs stomach and anxiety issues and he is now better than ever, at the age of 11! Holistic pet care is the only treatment that solves the underlying problem. It is gentle and it works! Marcie is incredibly talented and astute with her approach, and I wish that every animal could be taken care of by her. She is a miracle worker. Thank you Marcie for helping us.

Filipa, my JRT, has been seeing Doctor Fallek for the past 5 years. She is now 14. We first met Marcie after Filipa's heart murmur worsen and her previous vet started her on regular allopathic meds which were supposed to help her, but almost killed her. They tried adjusting the meds, but it never really worked. We just witness how Filipa was getting worse and worse, spending an entire month just laying down, barely any energy left to stand up to go pee or eat... and awful feeling, seeing your beloved pet like that. As soon as we met Marcie, we changed to her homeopathic approach and we saw quite a recovery! Despite Filipa's age, health issues and increase in the amount of health care she and any senior pet requires, Filipa has remained the same playful, mischievous, and funny JRT she has ever been. We believe that Marcie's help, advice and holistic approach as has been unequivocally instrumental in helping Filipa manage her senior years health issues. Two years ago, we left NYC, but we kept in close contact with Marcie as the first point of contact regarding Filipa's conditions, and our guiding star when confronted with tough decisions when it comes to Filipa's health. Even on a long distance situation Marcie has been extremely responsive, caring and attentive to our pet's needs. She has saved her on numerous occasions. We are very grateful that Dr Fallek is part of Filipa's life. Thank you Marcie for all your support, professionalism and care!!
