Called a maverick and a quack, Dr. Marty Goldstein is often a last hope for pet owners after other vets give up. A champion of integrative medicine, Dr. Goldstein and his staff build a mecca for holistic care and alternative therapies. With astounding results and some miracle cases, Dr. Goldstein credits his success to a belief in improving overall health in addition to treating disease. Not every case is a success (there is still loss and hardship) but Dr. Goldstein’s practice shines a glaring light on the knee-jerk reaction to over-prescribe in most medical facilities.
