Animal Healing Center

It's now 11 years since we started bringing our cats to the Animal Healing Center. What I especially value is the supportive interaction with Dr. Diana Drumm and staff that guides and informs us in our at-home care of pets. She is a fully qualified and superbly competent veterinarian who emphasizes holistic healing methodologies. Most of these past years we have also had our cats simultaneously under the care of a conventional veterinarian. Although, on the surface, that would appear to be expensive--to have two vets--in the longer term we have actually saved a few thousand, owing to good advice from the AHC that informed our decisions about costly tests and treatments recommended by conventional vets. Recently the AHC has started giving diagnostic blood tests, the results of which help us know whether a particular health issue or crisis may or may not need intervention by conventional means.

I must say my experience with Dr Heather has been great over the 10 years. The staff is great very friendly and efficient . This last time I took Charlie (He had a slip disc when he was 5 and couldn't walk with his hide legs. She did acupuncture for 4 months and Lazer and then we put him in water therapy for another couple of months and he has walked ever since . ) Now he is 15 and had another little setback so we went for a tuneup Again I thought I was going to have to put Charlie down ? . Now he is back to his walking and rolling on the floor happy ,eating 😄 It is pricey there but worth it.

I have only great things to say about this place. Dr. Chou is hands down the best vet I have ever seen. She is very knowledgeable about cutting edge medical science, and yet takes a wholistic, natural approach to treating animals. The tools, herbs and modalities that she uses are more effective than any band-aid treatments any other vet has offered to my dog. She has extensive knowledge of herbs, the microbiome, accupuncture, blood tests, and the immune system. She can still prescribe drugs and take blood labs like a conventional vet. Dr. Chou is committed to helping animals be healthy and is truly a healer. She takes the time to get to know your pet, and works with you closely, examining subtle behaviors and progress each step of the way. She has been a god send in helping me navigate my dogs very complicated and mysterious chronic I'llness. She will never give up on your pet. She truly cares. The staff here is very friendly and honest. No surprise charges or pushing of medications or procedures. The visits are affordable considering that you get veterinary care that is actually effective for getting to the root cause, vs wasting money on vets to just tell you your dog has allergies and prescribe steroids while your animal gets sicker and sicker. The atmosphere is wonderful. It's literally a house that has been turned into a vet office. They have essential oils vaporizing. My dog looks forward to coming here and gets excited when we arrive, while at other vets she gets scared and tries to hide. Now that I know this place exists, I will never take my dog anywhere else unless it's an emergency vet hospital. I wish I would have found this vet clinic 8 years ago when I got my pup. It would have saved me and my dog a lot of suffering to be in good hands to start with. I recommend this place to everyone.

Great doctors who are very informative and compassionate. Brought my Labrador here when he was diagnosed with cancer and we refused the chemo from the regular vet. They gave my dog a great herbal mix they make there and talked me through making homemade food for him. They made it simple and it really made a difference for my dog. And when a certain method of treatment didn't seem to affect the cancer then they would recommend another option. They do what they do for the animals not the money.
