Welcome to Hosanna Animal Hospital

What is integrative veterinary medicine? Integrative veterinary medicine is a whole-pet approach to care that uses the best parts of traditional medicine and holistic medicine to keep pets healthy.

Traditional veterinary care includes vaccines, blood tests, surgery, and medications. When balanced with holistic approaches, traditional care can benefit your pet as it has a proven and reliable track record, allows for advanced diagnostics, and provides specialized treatments, especially in urgent situations. However, traditional veterinary care can be limited when used as the only approach. Traditional medicines can lead to side effects that affect other systems within our pets, focus only on the symptoms, not the whole pet and their overall health, and can be costly.

Holistic care considers the whole pet and includes acupuncture, supplements, herbal remedies, and a balanced approach to nutrition. When balanced with traditional methods, holistic care can benefit your pet by focusing on the whole pet by looking at your pet’s body, mind, lifestyle, and environment, not just symptoms. Holistic care is often gentler, supports long-term wellness, and personalizes your pet’s needs and lifestyle.

Integrative care is powerful for your pet’s wellness; it looks at the whole picture, not just the problem. Dr. Krueger and the team at Hosanna are committed to creating personalized care plans that give families options, empowering them to make the choices that are best for their pet’s health, lifestyle, and budget.
