  • Hello, all. Our aging golden retriever has back issues which are now affecting her mobility. I am pretty sure that a chiropractor could help, but the one person who our vet referred us to would charge $600 just for the initial evaluation. Acupuncture could possibly help, too. Do you have a practitioner you would recommend? We're in San Francisco, but willing to drive.  

    I just took my puppy to Holistic Veterinary Care (holisticvetcare.com) in Oakland for rehab post-surgery on his legs, and so far I think they're great. The initial consult was $350 and included up to an hour with the vet and then 30 minutes of rehab which in his case was the water treadmill, but I know they offer chiropractic and acupuncture as well. Might be worth a look! My advice is not to call them, but rather to use the chat feature on their website. They definitely respond faster by email/web than by phone. Good luck!

    Hi, I highly highly recommend Dr. Adam at San Francisco Healthy Pets  in West Portal. I connected with Dr. Adam when he was in Oakland at Creature Comfort -- I had an elderly husky who had very severe spinal stenosis and could barely walk so I wanted to try accupuncture as a last-ditch effort. It was kind of amazing. My dog was like a changed dog -- mobile and happier. Oddly, the accupuncture even resulted in fur growing back on his leg after an ACL surgery from a few years prior (he had a bare leg for years!) and his coat changed dramatically for the better. Dr. Adam now has his own practice (SF Healthy Pets) and I go there whenever one of my animals has complex issues. He is intuitive, includes both traditional veterinary medicine as well as holistic. He is truly the most gifted vet I have ever met. sfhealthypets.com

  • I heard there was a Dog Chiropractor in Tracy named Michael Gleason. None of the phone numbers I received seem to work - does anyone know a contact for him? Also if you know of another dog chiropractor near Oakland that you would recommend please let me know. Thanks.

    Try Creature Comforts on MacArthur in Oakland, near the Dimond district. Acupuncture and herbs, certainly; referral to chiropractic and homeopath if they no longer offer it. Best. 

    When I googled him this number comes up. I don't know if this is the number that you have.
