For nearly two decades, Dr. Marty Goldstein, one of America's most successful, renowned holistic veterinarians, has healed and helped his animal patients with the same natural therapies that benefit humans. The author of "The Nature of Animal Healing", Dr. Goldstein is internationally known for his use of non-toxic therapies to treat degenerative diseases, allowing the animals to regain and maintain their own health, the way nature intended. At his clinic, Smith Ridge Veterinary Center in South Salem, NY, he and his staff of four veterinarians, regularly treat animals through metabolic and other holistic approaches.

Dr. Goldstein earned his DVM at Cornell University. He was certified in veterinary acupuncture in 1977, and in iridology in 1981. He is a frequent lecturer at the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Society's annual conferences, and he has written numerous articles about holistic veterinary medicine and alternative therapies for magazines, journals and related publications. He teaches the seminar "Fundamentals of Health and Disease from an Alternative Point of View" to both veterinarians and the general public.
