“We’re definitely looking to grow,” she said.
The practice sees on average 30 different families a day, and since Dr. Matthew Heller purchased the practice in 2002 they’ve seen 12,000 to 13,000 clients, in addition to the 2,000 or so clients that stayed with the practice. It was announced this week that DuVal was hired by the practice, joining Heller and Dr. Laura Arington. DuVal received her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine this year from the Ross School of Veterinary Medicine.
In addition to traditional veterinarian medicine, the practice is one of the few veterinary clinics that practice a very old medicine: holistic medicine.
“We are an integrative veterinarian hospital, which means we offer traditional veterinary treatments and alternative modalities,” Goheen said. “It’s looking at the animal as a whole, trying to figure out why something happened and fixing it at its core.”
Animals can receive acupuncture, herbal remedies and spinal manipulation.
They can also use alternative medicine to manage end of life care.
The clinic also gives back to the community through education and fund raising. On July 12, the clinic, located at 3410 Tytus Ave., will have “No Fleas Market” where several pet-related vendors will be set up and the public can learn about pet care and purchase products. All proceeds of the fundraiser will go to local animal rescues.
