Dr. Steve is a "wholistic" vet. He encourages an "active patient" model (or active patient owner since he's a vet). Questions, alternatives, a full range of services, including water therapy and acupuncture, are provided at his clinic. He "listens" to the pets brought in to get a sense of what the problem is from their perspective, as well as listening to the owner's narrative. His sense of calm and confidence helps the most anxious pets settle down and be at ease. He's the GREATEST!

Dr. Richard Palmquist is a pioneer integrating conventional medicine with holistic medicine and my Certified Therapy Dog, Amber, is healthy and happy because 3 years ago today (believe it or not), I choose integrative medicine with him when the conventional oncology doctors said to give up.He is not only practicing this integrative approach, but working to get it taught in veterinary schools, do research and support veterinary students interested in integrative medicine. To further these goals he founded the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Foundation.He is brave, bold and an amazingly kind and wise soul. Thank you for considering Dr. Richard Palmquist and his trailblazing integrative medicine work. Karen and Amber, woof

Dr Lawson and West Hills Animal Hospital have been my vet for many years. The quality of care is superb from primary doctor to front desk. Dr Lawson has taken care of multiple animals for me from me ensuring the highest care possible.... to helping me make the right decision when it was time to help them transition to whatever lies beyond. There are many vets closer to where I live that would be convenient, but I cannot imagine ever changing as long as Dr Lawson is at West Hills Animal Hospital. They are more than a vet they are like close family who care as much about my animals as I do!

Dr. Palmquist is a dog whisperer! He gets on the floor and talks to the animal putting them at ease. He is sensitive to the human anxiety as well. The best advise he gave me when it was time to let may animal die, he said "she will tell you, and you will know" That is exactly what happened. He does not over or under prescribe and follows natural eastern healing methods as well as traditional western medicine. He serves an integrated community. His patients travel great distances to receive his care. I have been his client for more than 20 years, and will remain as long as he practices Veterinary medicine. Most importantly, good or bad he tells you like it is!

She is amazing!!! She goes the extra mile to make sure our pets are healthy. She doesn't pressure you when you cant get something done and doesn't over charge. They always go over the bill and ask what we want done before they do it. Her first priority is the health of our pets. She has done an awesome job when my babies are sick!!

I have been with Dr Orme for more than 20 years. She has treated all my dogs, she try to do the best for my dogs. She trys different was also to save me money in treatmens. She performs Accupuncture in some of my dogs and save them from going into surgery. She calls and fallows up on my pet. She is very kind and explains all aspects of the case with the client.
