I took my dog to see Dr. Davenport when Dr. Love was not available. She prescibed Chinese herbs that did not work at all for his conditions. When I consulted my accupuntirist about the herbs, we found out that she had given me a completely wrong herb. When I brought this to her attention, she disagreed, and prescribed another herb. When I looked up the usage for this, again it was the wrong formula for my dog's needs. \r
I am all for eastern medicine whenever possiblle, but I feel that maybe Dr. Davenport needs a little more training before she is ready to practice eastern meds. Upon researching, I found that vets do not have to go to school as long as regular acupunturists do, in fact it is a rather short course. I recommend finding a vet who has been practicing for a while, rather than practicing new skills on your dog.
