They saved my dog's life, diagnosing a problem that 4 other vets missed. He's healthy, happy, and really likes going to the vet! Holistic care is not cheap, so ask for estimates.

My dog Max had been suffering with chronic ear infections for over a year. None of the meds were working and I was frustrated at watching him suffer. A friend suggest I seek a holistic practioner. I found this practice on a google search. My initial visit was pricey but well worth the money spent. We did allergy testing and today less than 6 months after beginning treatment with the recommendations made by Dr. Pema Max is infection and med free. We are following a raw diet and utilizing some chinese herbs. I can't believe what a difference these simple changes made. Well worth the cost of the initial consultation....you'd spend much much more continuing with monthly visits and meds from your regular vet!

Our experience with VHA was wonderful. Our German Shephard was diagnosed with megaesophogus at the age of 9. Traditional medicine had told us there was nothing they could do. That's how I found Dr Riachura. She gave us alternative treatment options including changing her diet. Under Dr Riachura's care, our dog rebounded from 2 or 3 bouts of pneumonia and we just lost her at 12.5 years, a good, long life. We did spend a lot of money with VHA, but the choices were always ours. We didn't choose to do every treatment option, but they told us about them so we could make informed decisions. Dr Riachura and Robin cared deeply for Addie. They always made time for us in the schedule, even at the last minute. Dr Riachra even gave us her cell phone number and followed up after treatments to see how she was doing. I've never found a vet so involved in my animal's care. The entire office staff is friendly and kind. They all knew us and our dog. I agree with the reviewer that asks how much is your pet worth to you. For us, they were worth it. They gave us extra time with our beloved and gave us comfort in feeling we were doing what we could for her. If you are really not open to alternative treatments (or skeptical of) this is probably not the vet for you. If you want the very best for your pet and understand that this is not necessarily what is mainstream marketing and medicine, you should definitely make an appointment.

The people in this Vet are just unreliable and rude. They do not call you back for days or weeks when you are waiting on medicine, they charge you double the cost of a shot anywhere else. They are just downright rude!
