Holistic Pet Care

Dr. Buchoff and his team are extremely caring and knowledgable. The office is welcoming with its warm and calm atmosphere where relaxing music and aromatherapy fill the waiting room. I am thrilled to be able to bring my pet to such a superb holistic veterinary practice.

I came into Holistic Pet Care without my dog because I wanted to drop off paper work & explain to the doctor why I was seeking a house call vet, my dog suffers from seizures triggered by anxiety when he enters a vets office. I was charged by the doctor $ 125 just to do this. I find this an unethical practice. I should have been informed of this charge so I could, as a consumer, make an informed decision. I decided to not use this vet. Very disappointed consumers.

Horrible experience, i feel so fooled by this doctor. The doctor doesn’t even act like vet just some sort of herbalist, no sense that he has a medical degree. Gave me tons of supplements that my cat was not able to swallow and charged outrageous price while same supplements on Amazon cost a fraction of his prices. I sent him my cat’s blood work and he charged my extra $ 25 for reading it. Who does that? Total scam, avoid him or he’ll take you for a ride with your money.

Very happy with Holistic Pet Care in Little Falls. Dr. Buchoff is an excellent diagnostician and is very skillful. The staff is great, too. It brings such peace of mind to have a trusted, regular vet where I know my cat will be well-​cared for. Highly recommend.

This «doctor» is a quack. I came in for my first visit and he thought my stepdad was my husband, so that started it off awkward. Then after examining my dog, wanted to do $$$$$ so many things $$$$. I declined on 3x/​week chiropractic services, and I took his suggestion of a raw food diet, and nothing came of it. After trying a bunch of things I asked what to do next, and he told me to give my dog aspirin. ASPIRIN? REALLY? I’ve read so many articles where aspirin can KILL a dog. He’s supposed to be a natural, holistic «doctor» so why would he want to prescribe pills??? I know there aren’t many holistic doctors in NJ (I traveled an hour and a half to see him) but please do your research before going to see THIS ONE. I think there may even be some out in PA. Good luck…

Love this place. Dr B is always gentle and understanding with Cleo. The staff is great and makes you feel at home. Cleo has been coming here for about four years now and we don’t regret it. Parking on site is a plus too.

They said they take reptiles here, so i brought my bearded dragon. The doctor had absolutely no clue what he was talking about. Entirely no clue, I am actually really upset that I had even payed the 80 $ for the visit. As nothing was resolved and no diagnosis was given. It actually aggravated me how little he knew about reptiles and their care. My animal is clearly sick and he said he just needs to put on some weight. He said maybe if he doesnt improve we can come and get some bloodwork done. Why wasnt blood work done then? So I can come pay for another visit, and nothing will be done again? I am extremely upset with the visit I had, and can tell any reptile owners out there they can get more information online than this guy can give you. I strongly urge all reptile owners to find an experienced vet for there pet as this is not one.

When our 12 year old dog, Cyclone, tore his ACL two years ago, two other vets recommended expensive invasive surgery. This practice recommended dowry change, weight control, dietary supplements, and chiropractic visits. Cyclone is doing great and we still have not spent the cost of the surgery. With three dogs and four cats in our care, this is our first choice, even thoughit is about a 45 minute drive for us — well worth the trip.

I drive almost an hour to come here because Dr. B truly cares about his furry patients. My pomeranian Bella has been receiving VOM (Veterinary orthopedic manipulation) treatments for months now and my dog is no longer limping. The best part is that it also prevents almost all aliments that can affect every breed! The preventative approach is the way to go, not to mention the incredible lifestyle changing advice Dr. B provides for your dog to live a long, healthy life! :) we are so blessed to have met Dr. B.

I have been taking my pets to Dr. B for over 3 years. He is a wonderful, caring & intelligent vet. The staff is amazing too. I’m very satisified with the quality care. He offers traditional medicine in addition to his holistic approach.
I first met him with my 11 year old Yorkie that the traditional vet basically told me he was half dead. Adrenal, thyroid, liver & pancreas were all bad. But under Dr. B’s care all his symptoms were alleviated through dietary changes & supplements.
I highly recommend Holistic Pet Care!!!

Great customer to everyone that came in while I was there. They really seem to care about each pet and gets to know them on a person level. My dog is very scared when he meets new people and they did a great job of making him feel comfortable before they started checking him out. The cost is very good for the services that they give.

I couldn’t be more pleased! Dr. B and his entire staff are wonderful. We always receive the most attentive care and detailed information. Most importantly my pup is happy!

We LOVE our mixed breed dog and when our vet told us that she needed a ($ 3,600) surgical procedure we were devastated! I had a business card for Holistic Pet Care and when I called I spoke directly to Dr. B. He assured me that he would do what he could to help us. After the first «treatment» I said, «She’s still limping.» Dr. B. just laughed and said, «she’s just doesn’t want to put her paw down.» By the time I got home her limp was gone and it has not returned. It was a miracle! I have recommended Holistic Pet Care to every dog lover that I know. Thank you Dr. B.

Dr Buchoff has amazing talent for fixing very sick animals.
And this is a story of my dogs Max-​Sam and Chloe.
But for now I will describe when I brought Max in one day filled with lung cancer. He was diagnosed by a top emergency hospital in NJ and they told me to take him home and he would be dead with in three days at the most. I was so devastated and it brought me to my knees. I was going to take him home and let him fade away and then I said I can not do this to him and I was not ready to let him go. I mean I was so shocked and thought I took such good care of him and bought the best can food and dry food and also put in my own veggie mix for color. Any way I asked my chiropractor to help me find a better doctor and she found Dr Buchoff.
The first day he saw Max he felt his pulse, took more blood samples, and started a regimen of herbs and young living oils. He also changed the kind of food he was eating. No more dry food or caned. I started to make all his food fresh with chicken and dried vegetables mix. I felt like I was touched by an angel after leaving his office and was filled with so much hope.
I started him right away on every thing he gave me and by the next day his vomiting stopped and the diarrhea was gone. And here’s the big picture, he was jumping round like a puppy and lived for another year and a half.
One day we went to round valley in NJ to go for a swim and I thought I should call the old to tell him that my dog is still alive. He said I WANT TO SEE THAT DOG. So I brought him in and he did find that his tumors slow down but still there. But I don’t care what any one says. I learned a valuable lesson that the food industry for dogs is such a racket. So remember every one fresh is always best.
Thank you for reading my story.

Awesome loving experience!
My cat was told he had just days to live and it’s months later and he’s still alive!!!
Lovely caring Vets!

I am a relatively new client of Dr. Buchoff’s but I am quickly becoming a convert. I brought my 12 year old, highly anxious dog to him two weeks ago for an evaluation. Her behavior had changed dramatically — she suffers from arthritis and incontinence and cries all the time. After implementing several of Dr. Buchoff’s recommendations and taking her off of almost all prescription meds, milk bones and reducing her food intake, she is a different dog. Still anxious about going to the vet — barked her way through her chiropractic adjustment today — but is much better and in such a short time. He gets it. .. he is patient with my nervous girl and explained things clearly. He also did not try to oversell his solutions so I felt free to choose what was most necessary for her.

I’m SO glad I brought my dogs to Dr. Buchoff at Holistic Pet Care about two years ago. Before that, I never considered holistic veterinary medicine for my dogs.
Dr. B spent a long time examining my dogs, explaining daily pet care how to maintain my dog’s health, the value in feeding a raw meat diet, and his approach for holistic pet medicine. He offers chiropractic care, and alternativev modalities if needed, along with the traditional medical approach I was used to. He agrees with me that vaccinating a dog every year is not good for my dogs. He prefers to check the titers in the blood to see if the dogs really lack the vaccine before compunding them with the same dose usually given for a great dane (my dogs weigh 18 pounds each!) He details the lab work quickly and thoroughly. He doesn’t focus on bringing me into the office frequently, which is good on my budget! My dogs love going there, but his advice has kept our vet visits minimal! I found the staff to be helpful, and aware that my time is as important as the veterinarian.
My experience overall was very positive, and I’ve referred the practice to friends.

Great for preventative care (supplements, chiropractic adjustments, etc), however, this is not the place to go for more serious vet care. The office is disorganized and there is no proactive preparedness for appointments based on medical history (and I’m referring to tests and therapies done previously by THIS office), which is horrible! This might be a good choice for alternative treatments for terminal diseases (like cancer), but this practice will no longer be my choice for routine vet care after the negligent treatment that my dog received for ailments that are easily treatable. Now these minor ailments have become major issues and it’s not because she wasn’t seen by a vet (I’ve taken her several times over the past couple of months and she has been a patient there for over 2 years). It is quite simply because the vet did not treat her appropriately and the office is a hot mess! You’ve been warned!
