| 2009-11-05 | rocky | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | just wanted to say thanks to Dr. Christina Chambreau for the timely answer-which seems right on now that the condition has gotten better over night. My dog is now doing much better but seems to still be "groggy" so to speak but is now much better so i would say that the answer i received was right on and want to again thank you. |
| 2009-11-04 | Joyce Quinn | 10 | 9 | 10 | 10 | No | Thank you so much for your response. Interestingly enough, when I got up this AM (before reading your answer), I felt an urge to do TTouch on our cat. I learned the procedure many, many years ago. I did not particularly feel high energy being transferred to our "Lucy", so I am guessing that she is in pretty good shape, as her behavior seems to indicate. Thanks again for all the information you provided. Joyce Q. |

| 2009-10-15 | Aimee | 9 | 8 | 7 | 10 | Yes | Hi there, I would just like to thank you for your time in answering my question in relation to my kitten who was unwell. Unfortunatly I had to take him to the vet that very night, and they took xray and dicovered a large tumour in his chest cavity and was squashing all his organs including his lungs and wind pipe. They felt there was not a lot anyone could do and deciced to put hime down. I am gutted be still thankful, for your help. Aimee Spencer |

Expertise
I can give you the holistic approach to any problem in any species. Depending on the condition and the type of animal, I will be able to give very specific treatment suggestions such as what flower essences, homeopathic remedies, nutritional supplements, diet changes, lifestyle changes or herbs that may be helpful. I can also suggest where you can go for further education or to find a specialist in a specific holistic field. I can help you understand why your animal is ill and what improvements can be expected. I do not check messages more than every one to two days, so PLEASE DO NOT ask about EMERGENCIES - call your local veterinarian. I cannot diagnose your animal. I cannot prescribe specific treatments. I am no longer very current with conventional treatments, so cannot answer questions on those. I am not an expert on birds or small critters. I will give you helpful connections about hose species.
Experience
I graduated from the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine in 1980 and began using homeopathy in my practice after a client introduced me to it. By 1988 I was using exclusively holistic treatments. I began lecturing in 1987 and have spoken at veterinary conferences, health food stores, people's homes, churches, veterinary college conferences - anywhere people want to learn more about keeping their animals healthy.
Organizations
Academy of Veterinary Homeopathy (I helped found this one)
American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association

I have written in many magazines, journals and newspapers. A few include Bark Magazine; Journal of the AHVMA; Baltimore Dog Magazine; Whole Dog Journal; Tiger Tribe; Wolf Clan. I have also been frequently interveiwed on radio and TV.
