Integrative Oncology

“Allie Turner is an amazing person and vet. My dog had sarcoma, we were told she may only have 3 months, Dr. Allie gave her a very robust 1 1/2 years extra! I will forever be thankful and grateful!!”

Comprehensive Care

“Just wanted to give a shout out to Dr. Allie Turner of Veterinary Acupuncture & Rehabilitation Services; who has been treating my dog Ava for over two years. Ava had bilateral TPLO (double knee surgery) Jan 2022.

Without Dr. Allie by our side through the recovery/rehabilitation process, I don't know how we would have managed. Dr Allie offers care to dogs, cats & horses dealing with a range of issues from: arthritis, hip dysplasia, torn ACLs, cancer, recovery from surgery, back issues, etc. Specializing in acupuncture, laser therapy, Chinese herbal therapy, integrative oncology, manual therapy & physical rehabilitation & equine chiropractic manipulation. Dr. Allie is the most warm-hearted caring & knowledgeable animal specialist I have ever worked with.... Ava & Nacho adore her!”

Back to life

“Dr. Allie is a godsend. She has brought my horse back to life with the combination of laser therapy, and acupuncture. He had some swelling in his knee, and with the help of Dr. Allie, it went down after 2 sessions and hasn't returned since. Thunder always looks forward to having her come, and she's very good with him, providing patience for his moments when he dances around needing more attention from her. She really takes the time to go over your animal, listen to what their bodies are telling her, and come up with a treatment plan. She's incredibly professional, kind, compassionate, and has integrity. Everything I look for when working with someone and putting my animals in their care. I wish I could give more than 5 stars, and I recommend her to anyone and anyone who will listen.”

NEW LEASE on life

“My 13-year-old dog had torn his ACL and I wasn't sure what to do. After a long period of rest to build up scar tissue, I took him to my local Veterinarian who recommended Doctor Allie Turner. She has tremendously helped his condition. With the exercises, cold laser therapy, and acupuncture... he is back to walking! It has been a pleasure to work with and continue to work with Allie Turner on my dog. He seems to understand where he is going when I tell him its time for acupuncture and gets excited.

She is very professional and has a high level of expertise. I feel like I learned how to be a better dog owner after speaking with her and she has very effective methods. She has a very positive outlook and is great with animals. I have been very fortunate to have been able to work with her. It has been very inspiring to see my retriever happy and healthy!”

Love for Animals

"I highly recommend Dr Allie Turner She has so much compassion and love for animals she cares for. Bear really loved seeing Dr Allie and would run up to her when she arrived to give him his treatments. He never did that to any of the other vets. In fact he was very fearful of them, but not Dr Allie. Such a special vet."

-Tina P., Woodside CA.

above and beyond

“After our Malamute had fusion surgery (carpal arthrodesis), she suffered from extreme pain and loss of motion in multiple joints. With a combination of physical therapy, laser therapy and acupuncture, she is well on her way to a full recovery.

Allie has gone above and beyond! She followed up after every treatment, did additional research, consulted with other professionals and kept an open line of communication. I have never known a more caring and professional Doctor. Thank you Dr. Allie

-Sullivan Family, La Honda, CA.


Preventative Care

Walking again

“From the moment Dr. Turner enters the room the energy changes. Her smile and laugh are infectious. Her love and care for the animal is always present and beautifully evident.

She started to treat my wolf hybrid after he herniated two discs. He had surgery to repair them and she provided follow up care through acupuncture.

I have no doubt her immediate care after surgery and beyond was a huge help in regaining function in his back legs. He walks a little wonky now, but he’s treatments have kept the nerves firing and him comfortable.

If you’re on the fence about acupuncture or who to call, you have to give her a try. I’m so glad to have found her and he is as well! She is amazing!!”

BACK IN THE SADDLE

“Dr. Allie has been amazing in the treatment of my horse Merry who had suddenly developed some serious behavioral issues. Dr. Allie identified clear signs of ulcers through acupuncture points and sure enough, a scan at UC Davis showed significant bleeding ulcers!

Merry also had a very sore back from poor saddle fit. Dr. Allie has given her much relief with treatments, with great improvement in her attitude and willingness to go back to work.

Merry and I both highly recommend Dr. Allie. She truly cares about her animal patients and provides great support to their owners!”

-Sue L, Moss Beach, CA.


Exceptional Care

Dr. Turner has provided exceptional care for several of our animals over a period of years. This included in clinic visits with our dogs and cats, As well as in home treatment of a large dog recovering from back surgery. She provided acupuncture as well as massage and laser treatments to assist in his recovery. She shows an extraordinary level of empathy and compassion both for the animals as well as the owners, and was always willing to work with our schedules. Highly recommended.
