Dr Gail Jewell
Hi all,
If you have not emailed me for an appointemnt but would like an appointment on Sept 29 with Gail please let me know ASAP.
For those who do not know who Dr Jewell is, she is the chiropractic vet from kelowna that works on all my dogs. She is an excellent holistic plus traditional plus massage and chiro vet. She will not do the things your regular local vet can do but anything injury or sport related she is amazing at and the dogs LOVE her.
I try to have her look at my dogs every 3-4 months to make sure nothing gets missed, these are active dogs who sustain minor injury all the time, left undiagnosed those injuries can cause major complications later as the dogs learn to compensate for soreness.
Cost is 65.00 for repeaters 75.00 for a new client plus we charge 20-25 dollars per person to cover her airfare.
