How to Get Your Vet Needs Met

06/08/21 • 16 min

#035 I think it’s appropriate to say there is no more important place to be clear about what you want than in health care. If you allow yourself or your animal to just blindly take what ever a doctor recommends, trouble will ensue. I guarantee it.

This episode was inspired by a listener who knew she didn’t want vaccines for her pup. She’d already seen vaccine damage in her two children, but when she sought out holistic vets, she asked them if they vaccinated.

They did.

And Alesha felt stuck at that point. How could she get her needs better met?

By asking better questions!

This episode is here to help you get your veterinary needs met. While a vet can be a great ally on your natural path, it’s never safe to assume that he’ll have your every desire in mind if you don’t spell out your desires for your animal very clearly.
You must ask wise questions, either of your current vet or if you're interviewing a potential new one.
As “prevention” is often where the trouble begins and healthy animals become damaged, often for life, you’ll need a vet who understands your goals and will help you achieve them.

I share with you my thoughts on “sympathetic vets” and how to ask the right questions so your vet becomes a trusted part of your path to a wildly healthy, naturally disease-resistant companion.

Could YOU start a titer clinic?

#034 Titer clinic: Lisa Rosamino is ready to start one now that COVID-19 pressures are letting up for her pet food buying club.

She learned about titers from Dr. John Robb and me but wanted to make it easier for her many pet food customers to get that testing done easily and affordably.

If your local vet has either refused to do titer testing or made them prohibitively expensive, you’ve got options. Recent reports from listeners that some vets are even refusing to draw blood for you to get a titer done spurred me to explore titer clinics as a viable workaround.

Tune in to see what it takes and maybe you can organize a titer clinic in your neighborhood or pet store. I'll bet you could do this!

I also review why yearly titers are both unnecessary and potentially dangerous if you don’t fully understand this test's results.

Blood Tests: All You Need to Know?

#036 Are regular blood tests on your animal giving you a false sense of security?

Might there be better ways to suss out your animal’s health status?

Tune in to hear how a homeopathic vet thinks about these tests and even better, suggests something that’s even more powerful. And costs nothing out of pocket!

These freebies were here long before we got all fancy with measuring blood, taking radiographs and doing MRIs or ultrasounds.

These “measures” are really at the heart of our survival as a species!

Listen up and you’ll get the drop on your animal’s clues about her health well in advance of things changing in her blood.

That adds up to getting some valuable treatment started earlier: always a great idea to prevent suffering.
