We have been searching for a holistic veterinarian for years and finally found Dr. Bernstein. He is not only very knowledgeable and experienced in holistic and conventional treatments, he is compassionate and passionate about caring for animals. His wife, Karen answers the phone and was very direct with me in guiding me through the process to make an appointment by instructing me to go to the website first before proceeding. I’m glad I did. I learned so much about Dr. Bernstein’s experience, services he offers, helpful articles about holistic medicine, photos and videos and was able to be fully educated about what I can expect for our first visit, which actually made us even more excited to see him. We found Dr. Bernstein after our puppy got sick the day after receiving an intranasal Bordetella vaccine. Our conventional veterinarian, who we have entrusted with our animals through the years, was baffled as to what happened. After several attempts of different approaches to treat her, he supported Dr. Bernstein‘s help to try and find solutions and build her immune system back up. Dr. Bernstein was wonderful and even welcomed daily updates on our puppy so he could be involved in her progress. This was a first for us as we never had a Veterinarian request daily updates. He was always there to help us no matter what we faced. Day or night, he was a gentle guiding force, helping us through very stressful times relying on his nearly 50 years of experience. I read some reviews here about people who were critical of them including Karen but in reality, she is kind, caring, compassionate, and loves all animals. She wants the best for them and so does Dr. Bernstein…hands down. They don’t nickel and dime us and have even been helpful with our other dog who comes for moral support. We love him and we are so happy we found him. If you are looking for someone who has experience in both conventional medicine as well as holistic, give Dr. Bernstein a try. He was also the President of the National Holistic Veterinarian Association as well. He’s our top dog!

We have used Dr. Bernstein for the care of our cats since 2004. We could not have asked for a more caring, compassionate veterinarian. His level of expertise in holistic and conventional treatments is unsurpassed. it will be a sad day for us when he decides to retire.

Dr B has the healing hands of an angel. I brought my havanese to him with two slipped disks. She was in excruciating pain and literally shrieked throughout the day, even with meds from our vet.\nThey basically referred us to the neurologist and said she would need back surgery.\n\nI began my search for a holistic veterinarian and thank goodness came across Dr B and his lovely wife Karen. His kind demeanor and expertise made a world of difference. Sunny is pain free and off all medications. Forever grateful to Dr B and his healing touch.\n\nThe photo shows Sunny relaxing at our patio. She was not able to lay this way for months. Thank you Dr B!

Dr Bernstein and Karen became a big part of our family 7 years ago when our 95 lb yellow lab Tyler almost lost his leg and had difficulty walking. No other veterinarian in our area could help Tyler until we found Dr B. Over the years, Dr B was able to effectively treat Tyler’s arthritis, infections, and allergies with acupuncture, laser technology and other alternative and conventional methods. We love Dr B and Karen and they will always be a part of our family!!!

Sadly the attention you get on the phone at first contact speaks volumes. First they said that my phone came on to their caller ID as a spam, I ID myself and assured them that was not spam and gave them my full name and the name of my organization. They said that they are not taking new clients and that was that and first inpression was so bad that is sad to the lady: You know what, forget it, have a nice day and hanged up!
