The Rundown:
The first in the area to practice holistic veterinary medicine.
Shocked at his success with his first two patients.
Woo-woo witch doctor?
It’s not a belief system.
Communication is key.
Summary:
Dr. Jordan Kocen always knew he wanted to be a veterinarian when he grew up. He didn’t think of any other career choice, even as a child. He practiced traditional veterinary medicine for ten years, but was always learning new things and taking new courses, one of which was an acupuncture course. As his success stories spread, so did demand for his services. He began practicing exclusively holistic veterinary medicine in 1995 and opened Veterinary Holistic Center in 2015.
