About Vet

Hello! I am a general practitioner with a history of owning a successful practice For over 40 years with experience with Dogs, Cats and Horses. I retired as US Army Veterinarian and public health expert with the rank of Colonel after 36 years. I am certified in Veterinary Acupuncture and Chiropractic care. I use these skills to approach most conditions from a Holistic/ Functional Medicine Perspective. I look forward to getting to know you and your pet! This telemedicine platform is excellent for answering your animal care issues For those clients in Michigan I can also prescribe medications. Vetster has a very comprehensive availability of Veterinary specific medications, as well as being able to prescribe most general use medications through local pharmacies.
Veterinary medicine is currently in crisis, and many clinics are overwhelmed. You may have experienced long wait times at your local emergency room clinic, or that your primary care veterinarian cannot see you for several weeks. This platform allows me to help you address your concerns until you can schedule an appointment with your primary care veterinarian. It can also be used to manage long term, chronic conditions. While I cannot give vaccines or take diagnostic samples over the web, I can work with you and your veterinary clinic of choice to help you manage chronic conditions. These include internal medicine, behavioral, nutritional, skin, and other issues. I have a special interest and passion in Holistic Nutrition, herbal medicine and supplements When you schedule an appointment with me, feel free to upload your pet's pertinent medical history, vaccine history, and any useful videos or photos that you feel will help us during the appointment. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! 35 years in general small animal practice Retired US Army

Wonderful experience. Dr. Gavin took extra time. Was patient and understanding and offered additional health and wellness advice and materials to better care for diet and health of my dog. Wish he was still in practice to bring my dog in person. 😊🐾🐕🦴🤎
