"Nature always wins in the end, so we might as well follow her lead and save ourselves a whole lot of trouble."

Veterinary services

This is an unusual veterinary practice. My aim is to follow nature's lead, keep it simple, light-handed, and unhurried, accepting whatever comes.

You'll continue to use your regular veterinarian for routine veterinary care. My main interest and focus is on:

* food - diet and digestive health

* feet - routine and remedial foot care

* frame - balance and movement

* farm - barn and pasture management

I'm particularly interested in the relationship between soil, plant, and animal health. Healthy soil makes for healthy plants, which make for healthy animals.

If you're interested in being more self-sustaining and self-reliant, it all starts with the soil.

Appointments

I'm based in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and offer farm/barn and home visits locally, and phone consultations if appropriate for the situation. Horses, dogs, cats, and farm animals are all welcome.

Consultations are scheduled between 9 am and
5 pm (ET), Monday to Friday, by appointment only.

Please call your regular veterinarian or nearest emergency hospital for any urgent care.

Fees

A 1-hour consultation is $125. Some first-time consults take longer than an hour; some follow-up consults take less than 30 minutes. All are billed accordingly.

The trip charge for visits is based on drive time. Please call or e-mail for an estimate to your location.
