I've been a veterinarian since 2002, and since 2010 I've been treating dogs and cats with serious, chronic, progressive diseases using new Integrated Medicine treatments.

Dogs and cats are my passion, and I consider them truly important members of our families, until their last breath.

WHEN TRADITIONAL THERAPIES BECOME LESS AND LESS EFFECTIVE

When the traditional therapies loose their effectiveness, INEGRATED THERAPY allows us to help our dog or cat go from feeling pain, apathy, or having serious motor problems to regaining energy, vitality, joy, and a desire to move.

The results I've achieved in recent years are astonishing:

• pharmacological therapies reduced to a minimum,

• epileptic seizures that decrease in intensity and frequency,

• tumors that slow their progression.

I know it seems impossible, because it truly is if we don't adopt new treatment modalities that include Multidisciplinary Approaches and Integrated Therapies.

Integrated Medicine offers new and more effective diagnostic and treatment options, particularly effective for chronic conditions and even the most challenging cases. My approach combines traditional Western medicine with complementary approaches/techniques such as:

• Western Medicine

• Oriental Medicine

• Kinesiology

• Preventive and therapeutic nutrition

• Neural Therapy

Chinese medicine is based on the five elements: fire, earth, metal, water, and wood. This video provides a simple explanation of the "Theory of the Five Elements". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xmdlbm6kQjo

Today I treat truly challenging cases and guide my epileptic patients on a journey of renewed energy, serenity, and overall well-being.

Our Western medicine has solid foundations and is essentially based on a scientific approach. It has a strong allopathic orientation, focusing primarily on treating symptoms. This approach has many advantages, and my training as a veterinary surgeon is grounded in scientific evidence, with particular attention to symptoms and the use of pharmacological therapies when necessary.

To manage truly complex cases, I've learned not to take anything for granted and to study, study, and study some more, even if this means questioning what I've learned and done up to that point.

I've added a new, long-term course in Traditional Chinese Medicine to my veterinary practice. This has opened a window to an approach that helps me truly consider the individual as a whole and give due weight to visible symptoms, which are only one of several factors to consider when observing, listening, and establishing a diagnosis and treatment.

MY POST-GRADUATION EXPERIENCE

After graduation, I worked at a center specializing in neurology and, for over 10 years, at Turin's main veterinary clinic, where I had the opportunity to care for hundreds of dogs and cats with neurological problems (many epileptic dogs and cats), osteoarticular problems, and arthritis (many dogs with hip dysplasia and/or hernias). Dogs and cats experiencing pain, with significant mobility difficulties, or with severe and recurring seizures.

Since then, I've decided to dedicate myself to them and treat only dogs and cats with serious chronic conditions, often elderly patients with tumors. The medical approach I use integrates traditional protocols with other tools (it can be described as a holistic approach). Today, I'm a veterinarian specializing in integrative medicine for dogs and cats with chronic conditions such as epilepsy, dysplasia, hernias, and tumors.

For me, it's always been limiting, not finding solutions, especially when I felt the available medical protocols didn't meet the needs of the patient and their family.

Another great difficulty I faced, perhaps the one that still drives me to care for the elderly and suffering, was not being able to help the dog or cat, just when they needed us most. After a life spent together, a life of unconditional love, not being able to help him and his family in those moments has always left me with questions and a feeling of incompleteness.

WHAT'S THE FUTURE TREATMENTS OF COMPLEX DISEASES?

I'm certain than the future treatments of complex cases, suc as epilepsy, will be increasingly multidisciplinary and integrated.

Initially began supporting traditional therapies with Targeted Nutrition and began to achieve good results. So, I continued to question myself and sought other insights and new approaches, studying the most recent human trials. What a struggle... but what a satisfaction!!!

In the meantime, I also continued studying Traditional Chinese Medicine, Acupuncture, Kinesiology, and Neural Therapy. There were long periods during which even conflicting notions only created confusion and doubt.

After much resistance due to the beliefs and convictions I had consolidated over years of study and practice, a new world has truly opened up, gradually and with no way back. 

Everything now seems more and more connected, naturally... everything flows and sometimes amazes me.

At first, I was in a hurry and also looking for the "remedy," the solution, the simplest path, the miracle drug or food.

Eventually I understood that each approach had its own valid foundations and it was important to study, apply, COMPARE (question oneself) and be able to understand their profound essence in order to use them in a synergistic and integrated way.

THE RESULTS ACHIEVED AND THE NEW GOALS

The results I've achieved in recent years are astonishing, even in the most severe cases, and sometimes they even astonish my collegues and me. Some examples:

• Refractory epileptic dogs whose seizure intensity and frequency decrease, recover quickly, and often reduce their medication.

• Senior dogs and cats, who seemed to be slowly fading away, are rediscovering their desire to interact in the final stages of their lives and are demonstrating well-being and gratitude ("He seems younger," their humans often tell me).

The most beautiful and rewarding thing is seeing the bond between pet and owner strengthened, seeing the joy and trust in patient's eyes when they look at their family members.

I consider myself very lucky! All this and much more is the fruit of:

• all the beautiful and profound authentic relationships created

• many cases treated with surprising results

• study and research

• failures of traditional medicine with the most serious cases

• clinical trials, publications, and collaborations.

NEW CURES FROM INTEGRATED MEDICINE

I thus discovered that INTEGRATED MEDICINEtruly offers new and unexpected possibilities that often lead to a reduction in medication use and their side effects, reactivating dormant energies, and encouraging all the self-healing mechanisms to re-emerge with force.

"I've almost lost all hope, Doctor..." is one of the phrases I hear most often from truly exhausted owners.

For year I've practiced INTEGRATED MEDICINE and I have chosen to focus my attention only on dogs and cats with truly serious conditions and progressions, which often no longer find appreciable benefits from traditional therapies. 

I see more and more patients who have already tried many approaches and they are close to loosing all hope.

AMAZING RESULT EVEN WITH THE MOST COMPLEX CASES

For years, I have been systematically practicing Acupuncture and integrating traditional Western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, therapeutic nutrition, kinesiology, neural therapy, microimmunotherapy, and other complementary techniques.

This allows me to focus exclusively on treating the most complex cases, even those for which traditional therapies are ineffective and the side effects of medications have become unbearable.
