Testimonials

I can't thank you enough

"Hi Doc -

 I had to write to tell you how wonderful you were the other evening regarding my dog Frank.  I can't thank you enough for the time and immediate attention you gave us during our time of need.

When Frank had his 'attack' on Saturday night I didn't know what to do, so I waited to see if he got better and things passed and he was episode free. Then on Monday while I was sitting at the computer working, I noticed out of the corner of my eye Franks body start to tense and spasm.  My first reaction was to record the incident so I could show someone in addition to explaining what I was seeing.  Then I calmed Frank down and started to think about what I needed to do.  I knew I needed you Doc -but how?  You are on the other side of the world - a world away from me and my dog that needed you desperately.

So I sat and thought I decided to send you an e-mail and tell you what was going on and ask you for help. I must admit I was a little apprehensive when I started to write my first e-mail to you.  After all, what was I to expect from around the world?  Could an e-mail actually help?  Well surprisingly it did.

Your immediate response to my initial e-mail was heartwarming and amazing. Once again you were there for me.  In less than 4 hours after I sent you my e-mail - I had my first contact response from you.  You read my story and immediately knew we needed a teleconference. You took the time from your busy schedule to make time for me and Frank in MY time zone when it was convenient for me here in New York.  You told me in your initial e-mail what I needed to have ready for you, I sent you the video and the background info so that we did not waste any time when we spoke.  I cannot believe how effective phone consults can be.

Through speaking with you, hearing your calming and assuring voice again, getting one on one attention, you were able to lead Frank down the right path.  Once again you were able to prescribe just what he needed. Speaking with you on the phone was almost as good as having you here with us.  You are the most receptive,  responsive, and intuitive veterinarian I have had the pleasure of having care for my fur-babies.  I have had the honor of having you treat and help me with many of my fur-babies, both feline and canine. From my FIP kitty Fred, to my seizuring and dysplastic dog Frank, you have always been there with conventional and holistic expertise and caring.  I was afraid that when you moved that we had lost you forever, but thankfully I was wrong.  While you are not a car ride away right now - you are a call or e-mail away and that is almost like having you here.  I am comforted to know that I did not lose you and that you are still here for us. I would recommend teleconferencing to anyone in need -it's almost like being there.

Thanks again for always being there for me and mine" - Mariann

 

Tabatha's Story (Translated by her mom from Cantonese)

"I met Dr. Khalsa when I was 3 years old (I'll be 12 soon).  My Mom took me to see her when all the other doctors gave up on me.  I was really sick, and Mom was really sad.  Fortunately, Doc had a plan.  She weaned me off of all the harmful drugs and she worked really hard to strengthen not only my liver but all my other organs, In time I started to feel better and stronger, and if I did get sick, Doc knew just what to do.  So you can imagine how nervous my Mom was when she found out Dr. Khalsa was moving far, far away to some New Land

Dr. Khalsa told my Mom she would still be able to treat me and for her not to worry. But she worried anyway.  A year before Doc moved far away, her and my Mom started doing phone consultations, all in preparation for Doc's really big move.  I only saw Doc in person once-in-a-while.  Then the day came when Doc moved to the New Land .  Mom was scared again.  But in time she saw it wasn't so bad.  She was able to chat with Doc via emails and setup phone consultations and Doc would prescribe remedies and nothing really changed.  Mom likes that, and I like that I don't have to go in a cage and drive to the hospital and I like that I get Doc's full attention.  That's important for cats you know!

A few weeks ago I started to get sick and Mom knew it could be serious.  She worried what would happen if I got really sick and Doc was so far away.  So Mom contacted Dr. Khalsa and they discussed what to do.  I needed a medical procedure which for me is very risky. . Dr. Khalsa advised my Mom on what to do and when.  She consulted with my primary vet who was doing the procedure, to make sure I wasn't given anything that could harm my liver. She prescribed remedies to be used before and after surgery and she reviewed my pre-op blood test results.  I'm happy to say that all went well and Doc is working now on helping me recover and get stronger.   Mom feels better knowing for sure that Dr. Khalsa is available if I do get sick. And Mom says it's easier to get in touch with Dr. Khalsa now then before she moved away.  They exchange e-mails and Doc can call from the new land and she and she can phone-in remedies to be picked up or mailed.  It's pretty convenient.  Mom likes that and I like that. Mom is happy." - Tabatha Alexis

 

No More Allergies, Mom!

"What can I say about Dr. Deva Khalsa? PLENTY!!! I was so disappointed when she relocated to New Zealand....but no worries....her medical and holistic expertise is changing my four babies'- Buca, Hannah, Neeko and Nora's- lives. She accomplishes this through phone consultations! My local veterinarian diagnosed my Nora as pre-Cushing's and after one phone consult and answering Dr. Khalsa's questions about Nora, she did not think Nora had Cushing's at all and told me what urinalysis to have done that would help us to find the truth and she was totally right!! No Cushing's!!!

She also made sure that I began feeding my dogs a healthy diet, which up until now consisted of prescription, crummy, non-nutritious foods that actually were hurting their health instead of helping it. Dr. Khalsa is direct and is so knowledgeable it makes me feel at ease to entrust my dogs to her...even though she is in New Zealand. I tend to have a lot of questions in general and even more especially when it comes to my dog's care and my own understanding of the medical treatments and diagnosis on my 4 dogs. Dr. Khalsa responds to my concerns and fully answers all my questions.

The homeopathic remedies and herbs she prescribes are so much less expensive and easier to administer to my dogs than the expensive medications I had to buy from my local veterinarian and pharmacy. Additionally, it is totally easy to order with a toll free phone call or on the web. I am anxiously awaiting the release of her new book this spring!" - Wendy--New Jersey--USA

 

Our Journey of Healing

"I am truly grateful to Dr. Khalsa for insisting that my cat Chatty follow the treatment regime she prescribed. I hated giving Chatty the fluids, but after she suggested I warm the bag of fluids up in the sink, Chatty did not protest as much, Dr. Khalsa held out the possibility of giving Chatty continued life. If she had not insisted on giving him the fluids, along with her other therapies, I do not think that he would be lying next to me right now, looking sleepy and content, with a pretty full belly. The other vets were almost ready to let him go, because they considered 17years to be old for a cat, but Dr. Khalsa did not take that point of view.
Chatty had blood drawn at the end of that week, and we got the results back. The results were wonderful! The BUN and Creatinine levels had dropped to pretty close to the upper end of acceptable ranges. They were wonderfully improved. His thyroid level was almost normal. There was great rejoicing from all of us!

Dr. Khalsa did not consider his age. She took a positive approach, and said this is what must be done to help him. She did not talk about death, she recommended what could give life. Thank you, Deva. Thank you for helping our dear Chatty, and thank you for helping me to learn an essential lesson. For me the lesson goes something like this: You may have to do things that are painful or uncomfortable, but follow the path that you are on to the end. Do not relinquish the possibility of life.

PS - Orion knows that Chatty is feeling better, because he's back to pestering Chatty again, and generally being a brat.

Thank God for that!" - Madeline

 

Brutus the Pug

Brutus the pug"I was desperate, my pug Brutus had been seeing a dermatologist for two years for allergies, but not responding to treatments. Brutus' stomach looked like elephant skin. He had frequent ear problems and infections and he shed like crazy. Dr. Khalsa had treated Brutus when we lived in PA, so I called her office to find she had moved to New Zealand. I contacted her by email to see if she could help Brutus or refer me to some one who could.

Through "Skype" a telephone and web cam program (free at skype.com) she was able to see his stomach and we went over his symptoms. I sent her a hair sample via mail. Now I know this sounds strange and I don't understand it, but Dr. Khalsa diagnosed his problem and started treating him immediately. Dr K requested blood sample to be sent to a lab in CA and found his thyroid was way off . Dr. Khalsa diagnosed a massive yeast infection also. Both are now being treated and his response is unbelievable. Brutus is like a new dog.

I kept a calendar with what and when to give each treatment. I knew it was a shot in the dark but I had to do something. Brutus was dragging his belly on the floor and it would get very raw. He was not playing and he shredded by the handfuls. It has been only a few weeks since we started treatment -and we already see a wonderful positive change in Brutus. Dr. Khalsa changed his diet, taught us how to treat him for allergies, prescribed some homeopathic remedies and corrected his thyroid problem. What a new dog! He is happy and playful again. He acts like a much younger dog. I can't thank Dr K enough as she has given Brutus his life back. His stomach is turning pink again and the crusty nose is clearing up. Dr K you are the greatest.

Thank you" - Hope & Bob and Brutus Dougherty
