Do you offer integrative or complimentary and alternative medicine modalities like homeopathy and acupuncture for horses?

If by alternative one means unsubstantiated methods that lack a plausible scientific rationale, the answer is no. As a licensed veterinarian, Dr. Dziuba is observant of her Oath to apply her scientific knowledge to her practice of medicine. She will discourage therapies that are not effective or discredited. She understands that treatments promising cures (though justified only by tradition, testimony, or intuition) are sometimes difficult to ignore when your companion is ailing. To help you sort through data when reviewing treatments for your animals, remember that finding research by agencies who have no monetary gain in such therapies is a great first step. Please always feel welcome to excercise your confidential veterinary-client relationship to discuss any questions you may have about the effectiveness of alternative therapies.
