Summary
Meet Dr. Marty Goldstein, a seasoned veterinarian who's seen a dramatic shift in pet health over the last 25 years. In the past, cancer mainly struck older pets, but now even puppies aren't spared. Dr. Goldstein blames this change on generations of pets raised on lousy diets (yes, kibble, we're looking at you) and constant exposure to chemicals like flea repellents.
The real kicker? Sixty percent of Dr. Goldstein's animal patients come to him with acute illnesses, often after being given up on by other vets who recommend extreme treatments or even euthanasia.
But here's the good news: Dr. Goldstein's unique approach to pet health is changing the game. He can significantly improve the quality of life for 50% of cancer patients and 80% of those with degenerative diseases. How? By going beyond traditional methods and using a blend of herbs, vitamins, supplements, acupuncture, and more. His integrative approach can extend a cancer patient's life by 50% to 60% compared to standard treatments.
You can see Dr. Goldstein's work in action in the documentary "The Dog Doc" and learn more in his books, "The Nature of Animal Healing" and "The Spirit of Animal Healing." He's even sharing his wisdom with the prestigious Cornell University.
Forbes Magazine dubbed him the "Miracle Worker" for his game-changing contributions to veterinary medicine. He's been a guest on national TV shows like The Oprah Winfrey Show, The Martha Stewart Show, and Good Morning America.
Dr. Marty Goldstein is a pioneer, showing us that sometimes the best way to care for our furry friends is by thinking outside the kibble box.
