Telehealth Consultations

What is a holistic telehealth consultation?

Holistic consultations via telehealth focus on tele-education and teleadvice. Dr. Sue can help you with nutritional strategies, whole food and other supplements that support your pet and their whole body wellness. These services, which do not provide a diagnosis, prognosis, or treatment for your pet, have great potential for promoting preventive care and reducing unnecessary emergency visits (1). Appointments can be scheduled via Zoom, FaceTime or phone.

Prior to your appointment you will be asked to fill out a 3 day Daily Food Journal and a history form for your pet. During your telehealth appointment Dr. Sue will discuss your concerns and review your pet's history and diet. She will look at how your pet's symptoms relate to specific system imbalances according to Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) principles. An initial nutritional supportive care plan will be made and emailed to you within a week, with a focus on providing integrative nutritional tools to help with body imbalances and your pet's natural ability to heal.

Please remember that your local veterinarian must remain your support system for medical needs, diagnosis and medical treatment for your pet.

TCVM Food Therapy

Dr. Sue uses Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) food therapy principles to make food recommendations according to your pet's personality, age, and their body’s changing patterns. Food choices should be reevaluated every 3-6 months because of the dynamic way that your pet's body functions.

Whole Food Supplements

Dr. Sue often recommends whole food supplements from Standard Process to add to your pet's food therapy plan. Whole foods provide vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients that can fill in gaps and optimize whole body health. Nutritional therapy complements other conventional and wholistic therapies. It is a form of slow medicine that rebuilds, repairs and supports your pet's body systems over time.
