Dr Fallek helped us when our dog Delilah was diagnosed with a brain tumor. We were told she had 3-6 months to live but we managed to extend her life a year after diagnosis. Unfortunately, she lost her battle last April 15, 2021 and we had to euthanize her. Dr Fallek was always responsive to our calls when we needed assistance. We lived in Ottawa, Ontario at the time and moved to Vancouver, Washington through her treatment and Dr Fallek still worked with us even with the time difference. Thanks to Dr Fallek, Delilah was able to spend her last few months in her birth state.

I have waited years to leave this review because I do not like to leave negative reviews. Fallek is the worst doctor and the most expensive. Period. My dog had an ear infection in 2019 and was shaking his head. When I came to see Dr Fallek, she did NOT look in his ears or even examine him. She gave me drops and pellets. His ears got so bad he was walking with a titled head. Black junk was running out of his ears (she told me not to touch them, that the ears were “self cleaning”) After a month of this we could not stand his suffering. Another vet said the there were deep mats in each ear. And the wax was building up around it. The ears could not breathe. She did not pluck them but carefully cut out the mats showing me how to do it and wiped out the black gunk. Within 2 days my dog was fine. He has narrow ear canals and just needs to be carefully tended to.

She has been my vet for years. Her holistic approach has always proven to be humane and the best treatment for my dogs. "She cures the problem without killing the organs". My aging dogs always benefit from her expertise

I cannot say enough good things about Marcie Fallek. 5 stars are simply not enough! I have a rescue dog who always had issues with his stomach and anxiety. He then developed arthritis and then very suddenly was unable to walk due to IVDD. I was a wreck and felt helpless and frustrated with our previous vet as the treatments just seemed to make my dog worse. I found Marcie and consider myself lucky that she had time to see me in the first place. Her treatment style is thorough, efficient and most importantly- effective. After one session, my dog showed improvement, and by the 8th session he was healed! Marcie then helped with my dogs stomach and anxiety issues and he is now better than ever, at the age of 11! Holistic pet care is the only treatment that solves the underlying problem. It is gentle and it works! Marcie is incredibly talented and astute with her approach, and I wish that every animal could be taken care of by her. She is a miracle worker. Thank you Marcie for helping us.

I wish I knew about holistic veterinary care years ago. I believe if I had, I would have been a better pet parent and could have provided my pets with far better quality of life than what a mainstream veterinarian can offer. When we adopted Hazel in February 2021, we knew she was coming to us as a mature dog with some serious health conditions. She was heart worm positive and had mammary tumors, due to not being spayed yet. Despite her medical issues, Hazel quickly showed us what a sweet, polite, goofy, happy dog she is. We loved her immediately. After countless treatments and surgeries, which were all accompanied by both prescription and over the counter drug protocols, it seemed like Hazel’s medical issues were not improving, but instead multiplying. In the first 12 months of adopting Hazel, we brought her to our “trusted” vet at least twice as many times. It was heartbreaking to watch Hazel get worse with each visit. Finding Marcie was answered prayer. Hazel had overwhelming medical issues and the accompanying vet records to go with them. Marcie took the time to be thorough, not only with all of Hazel’s paperwork, but also in getting to know Hazel and her personality. My testimonial would be too long to if I outlined every area in which Hazel’s health has been improved since trusting in Marcie and the holistic process of trial and error. I will share two high points that are nothing less than a miracle. First, in early 2021, we were told that a recent ultrasound revealed a mass on Hazel’s liver and that it was no doubt cancer. Multiple blood panels showed her liver values to be off the charts, and getting worse each time the panel was run. We started working with Marcie in May 2022. In November 2022, we had a panel run to see where she was at. Hazel’s liver values were completely normal. Completely normal. In August of 2022, Hazel was in really bad shape. She had a high fever that wouldn’t come down, her belly was swelled up and was huge, and she was lethargic. In the middle of the night, we brought her into a traditional vet for emergency help and fluids. That day, Marcie stayed close by phone listening to updates and helping us to interpret what the other vets were saying. By the end of the day, the traditional vets were recommending euthanasia. We brought Hazel home and agreed we would give her until the next day to see how she was doing. I even went as far as researching at home euthanasia services in our area. Agreeing that we would not let Hazel suffer, Marcie told me she didn’t know what could be done, but that she would try. Over the next 24 hour period, Hazel showed amazing signs of improvement. Her fever went down, her belly started to shrink a little, and she started showing more energy. In the days and weeks that followed, we tried various remedies to help her continue to heal. Here were are, it’s almost December and our sweet, happy, goofy girl is still with us. She is thriving. We are so thankful to the Lord for bringing Marcie Fallek and holistic veterinary care into our lives. From the bottom of our hearts; Thank you, Marcie.
