The Natural Vets

Great vet and vet nurses. So kind and generous with their time. Great options for preventative healthcare too

This was our first visit to Natural Vets since relocating to the Sunshine Coast. Donna and Bec were fantastic with our dog. I am so glad we found this place and highly recommend them to others.

Very compassionate and experienced staff. You see they genuinely care about your fur babies. I highly recommend them!

Kaiser is a dashing chap, he is a movie star and part time dog model. Kaiser recently relocated from Melbourne to Noosa to enjoy his retirement. Over the years he has been on a lot of heavy medication for his joint and allergy issues. He is now nearly ten years old and it appears that the strong medication was impacting on his health generally and specifically. It was not surprising, however, hearing that he was in the early stages of kidney disease was very sobering. The choice was to continue with the steroids, meloxicam and apoquel and consequently put more stress on his suffering kidneys or embark on a new path altogether, one that included slowly withdrawing him from the “heavy stuff” and putting him on homeopathic medication and natural herbs. I was worried that his pain levels would increase and that his skin would drive him crazy, I was a little sceptical about the change but I thought it was worth a go! It requires diligence, I made sure he got exactly what was prescribed and I monitored his reactions. He had a number of blood tests to check his kidney function and initially the nasty levels kept rising. I felt that his pain level was greater too, but it’s hard to tell with a stoic dog. I thought this was the beginning of a downhill slide for him.He also had a saliva test which was sent to the USA to find out what foods he was allergic too and the results were amazing. I had always fed him a natural diet but I was actually giving him the things he had reactions too, like white fish, salmon, venison. He is now off all those things, free range chicken and beef are his main stay now and his itchiness has gone! At the time of writing, he has just had another blood test to check his kidney function, the results were all completely within a normal healthy range! To say that I’m thrilled is an understatement, I think Dr Henry, his vet, was a little chuffed too. So the new more natural path to health has probably given him the chance for a longer healthier life. He will continue to go to the Natural Vet for the rest of his life, nothing but the best for him. I cannot recommend them highly enough if Kaiser’s experience is anything to go by. He has been put on a new path to total wellness.P.S the steroids, apoquel and meloxicam have safely been thrown out!

Dr Henri, was amazing, super knowledgeable and kind. I highly recommend.

Wow. The Natural Vets are amazing! When we took our American staffy puppy named Abby to the Natural Vets for the first time, we were expecting it to be stressful for her as she hadn’t been to the vets since she was 7 weeks (she was 6 months old at the time). But we were pleasantly surprised that she was mostly calm. Dr. Nicole took time to not only give her a very thorough physical exam, but she also wanted to know Abby’s personality and her tendencies. We didn’t want to give Abby any shots and the vet was very respectful of that. Abby had a titre test to make sure that she was protected from diseases as she did have 2 shots when she was 7 weeks old. The vet had a mat on the floor and did all the physical exam on the ground which Abby liked a lot. I mean who wants to be high of the ground on a table with a stranger poking and prodding you. Abby being a staffy likes to jump up a lot on people and give punch kisses, but the vet didn’t seem as bothered by Abby’s naughty behaviour as much as me and my mum were. Abby had Chinese herbs which she didn’t like, but as she had hurt her leg, we had to give her something to help with the pain. Taking Abby to The Natural Vets cost a lot of money but well worth it. We have just recently taken Abby to the vet again (she is now 1 year old) because she had bad skin issues that were making her uncomfortable. Again, Dr. Nicole not only wanted to know what she has been eating but what emotional stress Abby had recently experienced. After a bit more was done to see what else it could be, we concluded that the antibiotics she had when she had an emergency spay at another clinic, and the trauma of the pyometra, both had caused her gut health to become unhealthy and imbalanced. So now she is on some probiotics, Chinese herbs (which she likes this time!), flax seed oil and a homeopathic remedy. I mean who would have guessed that animals too needed Chinese herbs. A big thank you to Dr Nicole and the rest of the team!The Natural Vets gives you and your fur Baby the best care and they actually care about you and your fur baby. They love your fur baby as much as you do. I have full trust in them with Abby. Animal health over profit. We will keep taking her here but when it comes to surgeries The Natural Vet can be a little costly, but it might be worth it in the long run?Thank you guys, once again for making our experience and Abby experience wonderful. Abby even fell asleep at her appointment. That just says a lot for the calming environment at the vet clinic as Abby is a party animal and loves people but even she felt the calm energy.

Very caring. I'm positive my dogs life has been extended over 2 years due to the care received. She is 16 and still runs around, so good to see.

It’s been wonderful to finally find a vet practice that is supportive of a more natural approach to health care and diet. Dr Vikki has been wonderful with our two dogs Bella & Basil, and all of the staff are so kind and caring. Basil was in the very best of hands during his recent stay for a dental procedure and made a fast recovery.

Best vet I've been to. They take the time to explain things to you. Have great recommendations on how to treat various things. Super friendly staff.

Dr. Henry is such an incredibly valuable member of our community. I find it hard to put into words, the gratitude I have for this genuinely compassionate vet with considerable knowledge in his field. He has provided such wonderful support for my dog Skip for some time now. Skip has been on a long, remarkable journey with Henry which started with Skip's mast cell tumours. Skippy had endured very traumatic experiences with conventional vets and at that stage we had very little faith left. 4 years later and Skip's wellbeing has been remarkable! Henry has supported skip's wellbeing over the years in the most therapeutic ways with nutritional supplements and homeopathic remedies that have enabled Skip to manage to thrive 'over and over'.Dr Henry has always treated Skip's whole body, not just necessarily the affected area. He identifies the cause of the problem rather than just treating symptoms. Dr Henry always examines Skip, advises, educates and encourages me to improve through lifestyle, nutrition and the incredible homeopathic remedies he provides us with. When on the operating table over the years he is always supported with accupuncture, intravenous vitamin c etc to ensure he makes a speeding recovery as well as receiving tests/bloods and quality supplements prior to any surgery to ensure his organs are strong enough to get through the operation successfully and make a good recovery.Henry always listens to my intimate knowledge of my dog and gives his complete attention and answers all the questions I have so I can better support Skip. I think of Skippy as my son and am forever grateful to Dr Henry for his considerable knowledge, which has most certainly prolonged the years we have had with out precious boy. Now, Skip has a new challenge to work through...bowel cancer!!Athough we have moved a long way from the practice and unable to see Henry face to face, his support from afar has allowed us to feel safe and supported to tackle the next stages of Skip's journey. Dr Henry truly is such a 'wonderful vet' and a 'quality person' and we are incredibly grateful to have had him as such an integral part of Skip's journey. Henry you have given us more than you wil ever know! We are forever grateful to you always! Skippy and Aimee, Atherton Tablelands.
