Dr. Brandt is an amazing veterinarian. I credit her with saving my cat's life with her holistic treatments. Mogli has pemphigus, an auto-immune disease which left his mouth scarred and sore. I took him to two other vets before seeking help from Dr. Brandt. The first could not even prescribe a food for him & promised only steroid shots at least every three months or more. The second offered the steroid shots plus removing all his teeth. (Don't ask me how that would help his immune system.)then we came to dr. Brandt. She gave him one initial steroid shot to start immediate healing. She prescribed a powder nosode & liquid medicine to be added to his new diet of grain-free turkey meals, which is a cooling food to cool his immune system. It is now a year later and he has not had a steroid shot since that initial treatment!!! His mouth is perfectly healed and has no scarring. I can't thank dr. Brandt enough. She may cost a bit more than conventional veterinarians, but if you truly love your pets and want the best care for them, then dr. Brandt is the vet they should be seeing. Yeah to everyone at Natural Care Institute!!!!
