Doolittle Sharon, DVM

At first appointment I was really optimistic about my dogs treatment.
I am extremely disappointed now that my dog experienced some dangerous symptoms over the weekend and the dr was unreachable. My dogs primary doctor wants to do surgery or a revolving door of antibiotics and laxatives. I came to this doctor for a different option. Talking to one of her office people today, I was more disappointed to learn she doesn’t even have an email she can check on the weekend for «high risk patients». When a doctor transitions person or pet off meds and on supplements it’s my professional opinion that the dr should be available to navigate difficulty, and according to Dr Doolittle’s staff that’s not an option. I am a strong believer in holistic healing, being a Kinesiogist myself, it just makes me really uncomfortable that I am navigating the weekend solo unless I want to go back to the traditional vet I left in the first place.

Dr Doolittle saved two of my dogs after every single conventional vet gave up on them. My Nikki had severe gastrointestinal issues and after a surgery to clear her blocked intestine, her vet told me she had one year to live. I took her to Dr Doolittle and after a short period of time, she was much better. Four years later, she’s happy and healthy. She just turned ten. Our Fran had allergies that were so severe that her conventional vet gave us food that was supposedly allergen free but had no nutritional value. She was given a death sentence as well. Dr Doolittle put her in a management program that has taken her comfortably to eleven years old with only minor seasonal issues. Our other two had seizures and elbow dysplasia. We took them to Dr Doolitle as well and Argos’ seizures have literally gone away while people look at me like I’m lying when I tell them about Zo’s dysplasia. No one can tell that they have problems now.
The short version is that, if there’s any chance that your dog’s physical problems can be fixed without actual surgery, Dr Doolittle is your absolute best bet. Be serious about your dog’s health when you go in though. There’s no cutting corners if you want to be successful with the therapies prescribed.

Neat holistic vet with very different techniques than what I’ve seen before. Based on a new plan, we are trying new everything for our dog (diet, meds, etc.) Natural flea treatments and more.
Definitely expensive, and worth every penny!

Dr. Doolittle is (one) of the reasons why my dog is 100% better. First of all, she’s a holistic vet — she won’t take blood out of your pup, or do any invasive procedures to check them out. She works on using kinesiology and (in my opinion) intuition. That said, all those methods WORK. She has managed to come up with a plan, food and diet change, to heal my pup from Perianal Fistulae (nasty illness common in GSDs).
Now, I pretty much forced her (ok she was cooperative) to team up with a Chinese Herbal Medicine Vet from Connecticut (Dr. Stephanie Torlone) and come up with a plan to help him. This was back in February and both of them did a fab job ! They really got along well and came up with several herbs to work with that would help Albi out.
As for personality wise, Dr. Doolittle is a tough cookie. She expects the best out of everything and everyone, so if you can’t handle that, you’ll be sorely disappointed. However, I love her for this.
Price wise — this is expensive, but please note: I am a full time worker and full time student — I barely make ends meet, and when Albi got sick, I had even more trouble. But I KNEW Doolittle could help us out without using harsh immunosuppresants. I also knew based on my research of PFs, that this was the only sure way to get rid of them. Doolittle was worth every penny, still is. Every once in a while, you’ll find some things are marked up, but if you do your research right, you can get some supplements/​treats/​treatments for cheaper elsewhere. However, the price for her services are worth it — she uses every ounce of energy in her to get the right combination of treatments for each patient, and she deserves some compensation for that.
