“I believe that there is a difference between being healthy and simply not having a disease or illness.  Western medicine is excellent at recognizing disease or illness and treating it, but it is not always good at recognizing the root or beginnings of illness. In my practice, I integrate Western and complementary medicine. The two approaches act synergistically to give me a more complete view of my patients’ health and an expanded array of tools to bolster the body’s capacity for healing. I draw from a wide range of therapies, such as acupuncture, Chinese herbs, and nutritional counseling to help your pet achieve a state of well-being.”

From Dr. Feigenbaum:

"Like Dr. Bowman, I believe in integrating Western medicine and surgery with acupuncture, Chinese herbs, and nutrition. A truly holistic approach to your pet's care involves incorporating multiple treatment modalities, and choosing the combination that is most appropriate for the individual animal. I believe that medical care for pets is best achieved as a collaborative effort, and therefore I place great emphasis on educating clients and fully explaining all treatment options. I take great pleasure in developing a trusting relationship with my patients and with their human caregivers, and keep in close communication so that I can assess response to treatment and tailor therapies to your pet’s changing needs."
