Preventive Care

Dental Care
The best way to ensure your pet's oral health is to have regular cleanings at our office. Our veterinarian will be able to discuss with you how often you ought to come in as well as a home hygiene regimen. This will help to prevent dental issues from progressing to larger (and potentially deadly) internal issues, such as dysfunction or disease in the heart, kidneys, liver, or lungs.
Vaccination
Parasites including fleas and ticks can make your dog or cat's inactivity and attack severaly. As such, the routine for vaccinations may need to chance. Talk with Dr. Pasternak on the best vaccination and the administrastion intervals for the best results. He can also advise on flea and tick products like Revolution, Vectra-3D, or Comfortis tablets.
Nutritional Counseling
What you interpret as a persistent grumpiness may actually be a sign that your pet is in pain. New irritability, shying away from being touched (especially on the face and around the mouth or throat), sluggishness, loss of appetite or difficulty eating, and lethargy are all behavioral signs which may indicate illness.

Pain Management
Any pet parent who is considering natural arthritis treatments for their pets that involve dietary or lifestyle changes should always consult with Dr. Pasternak to determine the best plan for pain management and treatment in your pet.

Skin Condition and Allergy Treatment
Once we had a dog that had to go under surgery 4 times with another vet due to skin infection and when we took her to Dr. Pasternak she got well. He is truly an amazing vet. My personal dog had severe allergies for 4 years. Her condition was unmanageable but since I took her to Dr. Pasternak her allergies are very minimal. His holistic approach cured my dogs allergies. She does not even need those meds and supplements anymore.
Upper Respiratory Illness Treatment
Acupuncture can bridge the gap between medicine and surgery. In China, it is often used as the primary treatment before conventional medicines and surgery. In small animals, such as dogs and cats as well as in large animals, acupuncture is most commonly used for: musculoskeletal problems (e.g. arthritis), skin problems, nervous disorders, reproductive disorders, respiratory problems, poor immunity and internal medicine problems such as heart (cardiac) and kidney (renal) disease, etc. Acupuncture is now known to affect all major physiologic systems including the musculoskeletal, hormonal, and cardiovascular systems.
Intestinal Foreign Object Removal

Infection Treatment

Bacterial and Viral Infection Treatment
Bloodroot, Sanguinaria Canadensis, has long been used in herbal medicine to treat skin issues, including warts and fungal infections. This native wildflower appears each spring in the eastern woodlands of North America.
Ear Infection Treatment
Dr. Pasternak manages patients with chronic or severe ear infections, and disease of the footpads, nasal planum (leathery part of the nose), and nails.

Chronic Condition Treatment

Arthritis Treatment
Arthritis (or more specifically called osteoarthritis) in dogs or cats is a common condition that occurs in many as a result of injury, developmental disorders, or the wear and tear of aging. This painful ailment is caused by abnormal changes in a dog's or cat's joints and results in chronic inflammation. Pets suffering from arthritis may experience mild discomfort or severe pain but the condition gets worse over time, which makes treatments a priority for pet parents.
Hip Dysplasia Treatment
Pets can have extremely sharp nails which, if not trimmed frequently, can cause serious injury. Regular trims can reduce the risk of injury, stop them from getting caught in carpet or other upholstery, and prevent the likelihood of ingrown nails. For older pets, it can also ease arthritis and other joint pain.
Obesity Treatment
Diabetes Treatment
Thyroid Disease Treatment
Heart Disease Treatment
Similar to people, pets can have heart/cardiac problems that develop with age or are present since birth as congenital defects. Many heart conditions are manageable, Dr. Pasternak is dedicated to improving te quality and lenth of life for pets with heart disease.
Kidney Disease Treatment
For instance, if your dog or cat has Kidney disease, go for foods that help to keep calcium and phosphorus levels in check. Dr. Pasternak has substantial education in nutrition from all life stages from puppy/kittens to the senior years and everything in between. Be sure to ask Dr. Pasternak about raw diets.
Cancer Treatment
Before we look at holistic treatments for dogs with cancer, we should understand what cancer is and how it is traditionally treated. At its simplest definition, cancer is a disease in which abnormal cells divide uncontrollably and destroy tissue within the body. There are many types of cancer but some of the most common in dogs are bone cancer, osteosarcoma-dogs, skin cancer, lymphoma, mouth and throat cancer, hemangiosarcoma, (a cancer arising in the blood vessels), and breast cancer.

Veterinary Surgery
Dr. Pasternak knows general and emergency surgeries like Spleen removals, mass or growth removals, Anal Glands packing or Anal Gland removal, foreign objects can be surgically removed, and most Cancer surgeries. He will examine the patient to determine if orthopedic surgery is required or not, and working with you, he’ll tell you the best method to correct the problem with your companion.
