Heatherdale Veterinary Clinic

What a vet! Dr. Anita Swann

I rescue dogs from horrific conditions and they live with me till death do us part. I picked up a puppy, a black Lab mix, on the road who was in a terrible state. Within 3 years he had been for an MRI and had 3 operations on his joints. He was then diagnosed with arthritis and sent on his way with pain meds which would eventually destroy him. At 3 years old he was like an old dog. He just lay down and complained all day. I heard of Dr Anita Swann at the Heatherdale Veterinary Clinic who is a holistic vet. With little faith and not much hope I took Chocolate to her. Within the first two acupuncture sessions and her homeopathic medication, Chocolate began to respond. It has been 6 months and 2 courses of 3 session each of acupuncture plus the homeopathic medication and I have a completely different dog. He runs around and plays like he never could. He even took on the role of surrogate dad to two bottle fed pups who are now teenagers and they rough and tumble together. I have taken some of my other dogs to her as well and she has been a miracle worker throughout. Chocolate will stay on the homeopathic medicine and might need acupuncture again at some stage, but nothing is detrimental to him. A big shout out to Dr. Swann who is my hero. Her staff are also excellent.
