Dr Reagan Carnwath BVMS MRCVS
Holistic veterinary medicine is my passion and treating animals in a way that I would want my own animals to be treated is important to me. Within my practice, my aim is always to get to the root cause of my patient’s problem and treat that rather than only treating the symptoms seen.
I am a member of the British Association of Veterinary Herbalists, International Veterinary Acupuncture Society, Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons.
I will take the time to understand every aspect of an animal’s life including its bond with you and treat your pet with natural medicine, care, and respect.
For me, working in this way is much more than just a job. It’s about integrating ancient and modern techniques to provide safe and effective therapies that improve the health and welfare of animals committed to my care.

NATURAL NUTRITION CONSULTATIONS
Diet is the foundation to health. What you feed your companion really matters. We support fresh food feeding e.g. home cooked and raw food diets.
However, we understand that nutrition is a spectrum and will be guided by your preferences. We offer a range of nutritional consultation services including:
Basic Nutrition Consultation - What is the best food to feed, how much, BCS, changing the diet etc.
Diet Audit - A look at what you are currently feeding and advise on nutritional excess and deficiency and ways to correct these.
Dietary Formulations - A bespoke diet is put together for your animal. All aspects are considered including life stage, body condition score, activity level, dietary preferences, allergies and sensitivities and any health conditions your animal has. These diets are balanced to FEDIAF standards. Clinical guidelines for certain diseases are adhered where appropriate, such as renal disease.
HERBS
All of the herbs we use at Herbal Vet Scotland are the highest possible grade and quality. We carry a wide array of herbal products. We only use ethical products - either wild-harvested or organically grown.
After carrying out a thorough examination we select an array of herbs to suit your animals needs and blend them into a tailor-made mix, specifically for them.
Herbs are used to help maintain optimal health within the body. Health is not merely an absence of disease, but the proper functioning of all the body systems, working synergistically together.
