Holistic Vet - Homeopathic Vet - Acupuncture Vet - Herbal Vet


This is the website of Christopher Day, holistic vet and homeopathic vet. Since the veterinary practice is holistic, we have a very broad generalist approach to veterinary medicine and to animals and their welfare. Hence, this website is a very comprehensive (and growing) information resource, with over 500 pages available - not for the faint-hearted! A choice of two different simple initial navigation steps is therefore offered, to ensure a comfortable and positive experience. Comments welcome.

FAQ added recently (a large selection of questions with answers, arranged by topic).

Blog is back!

N.B.: At the AVMC, we try not to be 'bogged down' by terminology or ideology. Much argument accompanies discussions on nomenclature. We do not mind whether we are called holistic, complementary, alternative or natural. The medicine we practise is the best we can offer, for each patient and it matters not whether it is perceived as holistic medicine, alternative medicine, complementary medicine or complementary and alternative medicine (CAM - CAVM). We offer traditional standards of professional care. Although we specialise in alternative therapies, seeking alternatives to conventional drug therapy, we do not shun conventional therapy, per se, considering its worth in each case. It is noteworthy how much the body can achieve without it, however.

The AVMC was the first dedicated holistic vet practice in the UK and is centrally sited in England.

Holistic, Alternative, Natural or Complementary?

We are also open to either spelling of the words homeopathic / homoeopathic and homeopathy / homoeopathy, the older spellings being more correct linguistically with the newer spellings being more convenient and more 'web friendly'.

These approaches represent a philosophy that is alternative to the current conventional norm but the use of alternative therapies does not do away with the need for a thorough examination and assessment. Nor does it preclude the use of modern diagnostic techniques where necessary. A holistic vet will take into account all these things, in addition to closely scrutinising lifestyle, diet, environment, riding, tack, shoeing, grazing, stabling, farm management etc., depending upon the species.

Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays: 09.00 - 17.00 (except bank holidays)
