Our rehabilitation veterinarian holds the CCRT (Certified Canine Rehabilitation Therapist) credential from the Canine Rehabilitation Institute (CRI), a US training organization for animal rehabilitation. Each patient's condition is assessed individually, and a course of treatment is carefully planned to suit that patient. Working with a dedicated rehabilitation technician team licensed as occupational and physical therapists in human medicine, we review each patient's recovery as a whole to keep rehabilitation sound and systematic.
A rehabilitation veterinarian on our team holds the CVA (Certified Veterinary Acupuncturist) credential from the Chi Institute, a school of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine, and plans treatment suited to each patient after assessing their condition.
