Dogs and cats
Holistic Practices: acupuncture, kinesiology (muscle testing for allergies, food compatiibility, and lesion localization), veterinary orthopedic manipulation (VOM).
Diet: We recommend a food suited to the pet based on muscle testing. It could be any type that is compatible.
Vaccinations: minimal vaccines (mainly triennially)
Conventional treatments are used.
Why Natural? By catering to the individual needs of the pet rather than using one protocol for all, we can achieve better results. The two modalities, VOM and kinesiology, allow us to create a program that results in better health.
How many years? Since 1998

Dr. Jennifer Bishop
Dr. Fernado Moncayo

61A Portland Street
Dartmouth, Nova Scotia B2Y 1H1
Email: jen.bishop@ns.sympatico.ca
dogs, cats, rabbits, horses and cattle
Holistic Practices: acupuncture, chinese herbal medicine, homeopathy, massage
Diet: Prefer a home prepared diet and will meet the client to improve their pet’s nutrition in whatever way works.
Vaccinations: We tailor our vaccination schedule to the risk and need of the individual. Generally, our policy is to minimize the frequency and number of components used. We use non adjuvanted vaccine wherever possible. When we vaccinate, we vaccinate healthy animals only and we use titer testing to determine when re-vaccination is necessary.
Conventional treatments are used.
Why Natural? Western style medicine has limitations and many animals have difficulties with Western drugs. After 5 years in regular practice this became very frustrating and I began to seek alternative treatments for chronic problems.
How many years: The clinic has been open for about 2.5 years, Dr. Bishop has been practicing Chinese medicine for 6 years, and Dr. Moncayo has been practicing homepathy for 8 years.
