Interview with Dr. Judy Morgan, DVM, CVA, CVCP, CVFT

In this interview we discussed the importance of proper pet nutrition, supplementation in regards to heart disease specifically related to mitral valve disease (MVD). We also briefly covered the controversial DCM issue.

I had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Judy Morgan, someone I deeply respect in the holistic veterinary community. Dr. Morgan received her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine degree from the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine in 1984.  Dr. Morgan is also a certified and accredited veterinary acupuncturist, chiropractitioner, and food therapist.  She offers an integrative approach combining holistic medicine with traditional Western techniques. 

An integrative approach combines the use of traditional veterinary medicine with complementary therapies. It involves minimizing the overuse and misuse of conventional medications. Integrating therapies like chiropractic, acupuncture, physical therapy, cold laser, nutritional therapy, and Chinese or Western herbal therapies may allow the use of far fewer traditional medications.

As part of her holistic practices Dr. Morgan provides such treatments as chiropractic, acupuncture, food and herbal therapies, all are utilized alongside conventional medicine to provide a full range of veterinary treatments.  In addition to all these amazing achievements Dr. Morgan is a best-selling author of four books on holistic pet care and feeding, hundreds of online and print magazine articles, and hosts her own Naturally Healthy Pets radio show.  Dr. Morgan’s goal is to change the lives of pets by educating and empowering pet owners worldwide in the use of natural healing therapies, minimizing the use of chemicals, vaccinations, and poor quality processed foods.

In this discussion we talk about the importance of proper pet nutrition, holistic supplementation in regards to heart disease and heart disease specifically related to mitral valve disease (MVD). We also briefly covered the controversial DCM topic. I hope you enjoy this important information and learn just how vital proper health and nutrition is for our companion animals lives. We must do better by advocating for our animals so they may have happier, healthier fuller lives by minimizing the amount of environmental toxins they are exposed to on a daily basis. Consider the products you use at home and look into safer alternatives. My favorite saying is, know better do better.
