"My primary goal is to help your cat live the healthiest, happiest life possible.

I prefer to accomplish this by empowering you with the knowledge and skills required to ensure a long and loving relationship with your cat.

My approach utilizes different aspects of traditional chinese medicine for both maintenance of health, or when needed, the treatment of disease and pain.

We will work together to maximize your cat's health while minimizing side effects."

I use Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) to treat the mind—body—spirit as one.

TCVM recognizes that all systems are intimately associated with each other, and imbalance (disease) cannot be present in only one system without the others also being affected.

When this balance is renewed, the body's own amazing ability to heal itself is restored.
