Like Yorkiemom, I like to have the best of both worlds, and I do. I have a great Holistic vet that is my main vet (she is also certified DVM), and a Vet Chiropractor (also DVM) that practices more traditional type remedies. They both know each other and respect each other. I've come into too many situations where the traditional answer has been, "give this pill"....my particular holistic vet is very though, watches my dogs while in the waiting room, and considers all aspects of their movement and behaviour when deciding on treatment options. The challenge is that there isn't always a "magic" pill that can do the job right away, but as my holistic vet is want to say, "I practice traditional medicine in a traditional manner...the other (western) approach is the 'new fangled approach' and focusses on treating symptoms not underlying causes." She's got a point
