Treatment Options for Pets With Arthritis

Your lively pet —  who once jumped on the bed at the first site of food–  is now slowing down and barely making it up the stairs to get to your bedroom. It is hard to watch our pet’s discomfort and we often feel helpless thinking that there is nothing we can do.  Good News:… [Read More]

I’m a pet parent and i was a Long Island  pet parent before I became Long Island’s holistic veterinarian.  This means, I know how it feels to have your veterinarian recommend additional testing for your pet, and additional expense for you.  x The bottom line is this: Effective veterinary care… [Read More]

Building Trust and Eliminating Suspicion as a Veterinarian

This past weekend, I posted a “public statement” about my own (lack of) involvement with Selmer’s Pet Land, a pet store owned and operated by some of my family.   In it, I noted that after only a few months  of seeing pet patients on site (much the way Banfield stores have set up shop… [Read More]

The Caring Vet and Selmer’s Pet Land (Clearing Up the Confusion)

  After reading a heated post on a local Facebook page  this morning — regarding puppy mills and the puppies purchased (or being sold) at Selmer’s Pet Land in Huntington —  I felt like I needed to make a public statement.

The Increasing Demand for Holistic Veterinary Care on Long Island

I’ve long said that trends in veterinary medicine follow trends in human medicine. That’s why it’s no surprise to see the increasing demand for holistic (often called “alternative”) treatment modalities for pets going up, not only on Long Island, but across the country.

Help For Those Battling Canine Cancer

Cancer is a diagnosis that no veterinarian wants to give and no pet parent wants to hear.  However, as I stated in my book, The Best of Both Worlds, cancer is NOT an immediate death sentence.  (You can order your book here.)  If you’re waiting on test results to come back, or have received a… [Read More]
