Dr. Hebbler is the most talented and knowlegable vet I have met. She has taught us so much about the health of our animals and has also helped us overcome a severe auto-immune disease my rescue boxer suffers from. She uses her knowledge of homeopathics, holistic and also allopathic practices to create the perfect synergy to help improve the health of her patients. Her knowledge of animal nutrition is on point and she helps me keep my two fur babies happy and healthy. read more

Awful experience. Non communicative despite taking my payment. Had to dispute the charges with my credit card company.

Very unprofessional. The veterinarian only takes money from clients and charges too much for services. They will prescribe a lot of remedies without properly giving prices on the remedies giving the clients a surprise once they finally thought of charging the clients for all the things they sent even though it's not needed. She's basically overcharging clients to pay her own dues without even providing great service. Dr Tamara Hebbler is even very hard to communicate with, you need to contact tons of numbers and I'm confused who I'm talking to. Not worth every penny to get service here. read more

So grateful we found Dr. Hebbler!! Our little pug Raisin had a horrible reaction to her puppy vaccines, they left her paralyzed and we were at a loss. Her treatments at the neurologist were making her worse. Dr. Hebbler brought her back. She detoxed the vaccines, strengthened her immune system and got us connected with the right physical therapist to get Raisin strong again. I am forever thankful for all she has done for our family. Raisin is a happy, healthy and strong (running and jumping) 4 year old now!! :) read more

I have been going to Healing Hope for many years now and I can't recommend them enough! When I found no answers anywhere else, Dr. Hebbler was there to help! Now I'm seeing her to treat my own digestive issues...and it's working! She's so thorough, patient, and above all else, compassionate. She really cares about her clients! On a side note, I was perplexed by Conrad's review below. That description doesn't describe Dr. Hebbler at all. And their rates are clearly stated on the website, so there's never any confusion. As usual, take negative reviews on Yelp with a grain of salt. :) Many folks take no personal responsibility for their own part in the equation. read more

I brought in my then 11 year old blue weimeraner(Rocky), who we thought was nearing his end, he couldn't walk very far and would spend most days in bed. Rocky saw Dr Hebbler and she totally changed his diet and put him on a series of supplements. I'm happy to say that Rocky is going to be celebrating his 14th birthday in a few months. He is doing great. He gets his daily walks and enjoys sun bathing. read more

I simply cannot express enough, my feelings of wonder and gratitude for Dr. Hebbler's being in this world. She is an amazing Veterinarian, and she is an extraordinary human being. I feel blessed to know her, and I call her my little Guardian Angel, and I'm proud to be one of her patients. When my baby Muffin (See photos of my babies, Cassie and Muffin above) became seriously ill (think life and death), I called Dr Hebbler and left a message- and someone got back to me the next day. When she called I told the Doctor my story about how suddenly Muffin started falling over, and became unable to walk, would not eat or play, and cried all the time. She was only a year and a half and I was hysterical, I couldn't stop crying. During the initial phone interview she asked me if Muffin had been vaccinated recently, which she had. She told me she could help me and to bring Muffin in right away. She told me she believed Muffin was the victim of vaccinosis. I had never heard of this but when I went to see her she explained everything about the rabies vaccine and vaccinosis, and she told me she thought she could definitely help Muffin. She spent lots and lots of time with me, answered all my questions, and did not rush me out of the office like most medical people. She is so kind and loving, and so intelligent and full of knowledge, I simply am spoiled for LIFE. Now no other Vet will do, All the other medical professionals I had taken her to had told me that she would have a very short lifespan, and would need to be on steriods the rest of her life, because she had what they called Yorkie Encephalitis. Four and a half years later, after intensive therapy and every modality known to man (LOL) (Well it SEEMED like that), Muffin recovered completely. Muffin is completely CURED!!! She is playing and eating and barking and jumping around, like she was never ill. My baby is herself again. . She is NOT on steroids, but she IS on lots of natural holistic supplements. She is happier and more energetic than she has ever been. Dr. Hebbler is a TREASURE. She herself is a miracle. So, if you treasure your fur kids like I do, you would do well by seeing this remarkable person and I give her my highest recommendation. To me there is no one better. I am constantly amazed by her. Every suggestion she has made, has turned out to be right on!!! Her abilities are exceptional and she is a very talented healer. read more

Dr. Hebbler has treated 4 of my animals and has done an amazing job! I brought my Westie mix Sunny in and she was very aggressive at first but within 5 minutes of being in Dr. Hebbler's lap receiving energy work she calmed right down and actually started falling asleep! Dr. Hebbler ended up making a house call that same night and treated Sunny as if she was her own. She really brings a calm and loving energy into the practice, which is important when dealing with animals. They truly feed off of this energy and it creates a calm state for them when dealing with usually high stress situations. I highly recommend Dr. Hebbler! The calming energy and comforting exam room really make all the difference! read more

Dr. Hebbler and her staff have been wonderful. I took my ten year old Bichon to her after she spent two nights in the ER very lethargic and vomiting. They could find nothing wrong. Dr. Hebbler put her on some herbs and remedies immediately. Not only did Mitzie recover, but she now acts like a three year old pup. She had a problem with incontinence which had been treated with some powerful drugs for about two years which did not get better. After one week under Dr. Hebbler's care, Mitzie no longer has an incontinent problem. It is amazing what Dr. Hebbler has done for our Mitzie. read more

Have tried contacting this place 3 times via email and once left a phone message. NO ONE HAS CONTACTED ME! I have heard this vet is very, very expensive and really lacks some veterinary skills. I would stay away - there are better vets that show they care. ESPECIALLY when they don't return messages! read more

My experience with Dr. Hebbler has been very frustrating. Available on very limited occasions, very expensive, non-responsive to e-mails and telephone calls,and charges you for a telephone call (if you're lucky enough to get one). Just mail her a check and don't bother her with your animal's problems. The office is very ill run and dirty. Not a professional group by any means and I've never seen the loving heart mentioned by another reviewer. Since she has not responded to 5 recent phone calls and the same number of e-mails, I fail to see any "caring" in her nature. Don't waste your money - or if you do - don't expect much in return. Namaste. read more

Dr. AMara is quite simply a miracle worker. I cannot praise her enough for giving me my dog back. After he had been suffering greatly for over a year and a conventional vet - unable to even correctly diagnose the problem-sent him home to die with drugs and a prognosis of a few months to live, she took him off the drugs and completely turned him around in a few weeks time, all done mostly long distance as we live in different states. He is now like a new dog--happier and healthier than he has been in years. The change is quite astounding. She has quite a gift and I am so grateful we found her. We are so lucky she took us on as she is quite in demand.I don't know of any vet like her, with her skills and healing ability; she is truly a one of a kind. Now if we could just clone her. read more

I am extremely unhappy with Healing Hope. I brought our pug, Chuck, to this vet specifically to get an anesthesia free dental cleaning. The website for Healing Hope does NOT say they outsource the teeth cleaning to Qualified Pet Dental. It only states that it is performed by a professional dental hygenist. When I spoke to Healing Hope on the phone to make the appointment, they do not tell you this either. When I was contacted by Healing Hope two days prior to my dog's appointment(to give them a $50 deposit), it was suggested that I also spend an additional $35 to have Dr. Hebbler give my dog a dental exam so that if there was additional dental work that needed to be done besides the cleaning, it would be authorized. I agreed just in case there were some bad teeth(pugs are known to have dental issues). First of all, our dental "exam" with Dr. Hebbler, was a waste of time and money. My dog was a bit squirrley, even with the holistic calming aids and it was difficult for the vet to look in his mouth. Dr. Hebbler proceeded to tell me that my dog should be on a raw diet, doesn't need yearly vaccines, shouldn't poop four times a day, and is WAY too thin. As pugs go, he IS quite thin and muscular, but he has been that way since he was a very small puppy. I have had him since six weeks old, we have always given him very high quality kibble, not a lot of people food(except fruit and veggies), and lots of exercise. He also also has a luxating patella, and our regular vet likes us to keep him thin so his knee doesn't bother him. Our other pug gets the same food and exercise, is not quite as thin, but also has a stockier build. Both dogs are extremely healthy with no breed related health issues. I listened to Dr. Hebbler tell me that I needed to bring my husband in to discuss switching to a raw food diet. I just wanted to get to the cleaning and get the hell out of there. As for the teeth cleaning, I was in the waiting room, not even ten feet from where Chuck was getting his teeth cleaned. If there was a problem, the hygenist could have come out to talk to me. Instead, when she was finished, she came out holding two of Chuck's front bottom teeth(a bit bloodied, too!)!. She told me they were very loose and causing him problems. She kept saying he would be much happier now! I knew that they were loose, and had been for quite some time, and were part of his under bite. I asked if she had used anesthesia and she said no, but it only hurt for a second! What the #^!*&^%!!!!! I was furious and dumbfounded! Who pulls a dog's teeth without consulting the owner and without anesthesia??? Before I could go off on the hygenist, the office manager comes up to collect more money from me, and to ask when I want to schedule an appointment for blood work because Dr. Hebbler thinks that Chuck is VERY sick and there is something VERY wrong with him. I explained that he had a full physical in May, by our wonderful vet, Dr, Nancy Bushnell, and he is fine. I told her he had also been to the vet the end of September for urinary tract infection, so the vet had recently seen him. The office manager said, "well, if you want a second opinion...and he should have bloodwork every year". These people are QUACKS. I was so upset, I paid and got out of there as fast as I could. I couldn't even think straight I was so angry. After I got home and talked to my husband about it, I calmed down a bit. I am still considering legal action. Dr. Hebbler has no idea about my dog, and Qualified Pet Dental should NOT be allowed to clean dog's teeth. I would give zero stars, but Chuck's teeth do seem cleaner, so I am giving one. Do NOT use either of these companies for your dog. read more

We've been taking our pets to Dr. Hebbler and Healing Hope for years, and she's proven to be talented, caring and compassionate with us and our pets. Thanks to her recommendations our pups are bright and healthy and happy. If you're into holistic treatments for your pets, it's well worth it to consult with Dr. Hebbler to look at avenues you may not have pursued before and to consider the myriad of things you can do to treat existing pet health issues, as well as great practices for helping to prevent them occur! Thanks so much to Dr. Hebbler and her team! read more

Dr Hebbler is a very talented and caring vet with so much knowledge and expertise. She is extremely skilled at homeopathy and is very in tune with the animals. She works with an integrative approach, which includes diet, supplements and homeopathics flower essences and more. I trust her 100% with my dogs and value her opinion and treatment plan options. I have read the reviews of some people who were not happy. Those reviewers do not understand how holistic therapies work, not do they understand the value of this amazing woman.The traditional vets prescribe so many medications which can have many side effects. I have had all my dogs on a raw food diet for many years and they have all been so healthy, which I believe is largely a result of the excellent diet the are on. I have a senior pet now and Dr Hebbler is helping us to support her immune system, help with some arthritis and keep her happy. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because it can be very frustrating not hearing back from the staff when you leave messages. read more

Dr Hebbler is a true healer. She not only helped our dogs Davey and Buzzy (newfoundlands), but she has assisted me and my husband as well. Davey (5 1/2) was over-vaccinated and mis-diagnosed as a puppy, in result has developed severe skin infections and allergies. After years of trying to figure it out through traditional veterinarian medicine, he only got worse. Davey seemed depressed, out of sorts, not interested in going on walks, playing or eating. We were really worried about him and finally decided it was time to look into a holistic approach. We are so thankful to have found Healing Hope!!! Dr. Hebbler has gotten to the bottom of Davey's issues and has helped him recover from years of being mis-diagnosed. Within a week after his first appointment we saw immediate results. His immune system has gotten so much stronger because of Dr Hebbler and her healing. We changed his diet and have followed her directions on supplements. The results are AMAZING! His puppy personality is back, he is happy and healthy. Buzzy is our puppy, he is 1 1/2 years old. He was diagnosed with Aortic Stenosis and had to get heart surgery when he was 8 months old. Dr. Hebbler has helped Buzzy's recovery and he is doing great. Both dogs have reacted extremely well, Dr Hebbler guided both dogs emotionally and physically. In every appointment, Dr Hebbler spends quality time with us. In the first appointment, she got to know Davey and Buzzy. She connected with them in a way that I have never seen a vet do before. She connected with us as a family unit and genuinely cared. This is so rare, we were not used to this in a vet's office and it felt really good, really safe and healing for each of us. The time she spends with us is therapeutic, healing and always so helpful. We all walk away feeling better and we always see immediate results! Her staff is great, they always get back to me right away. Everyone that works in her office are loving and caring. It is a nice feeling being there and knowing that we are in good, healing hands of people who truly care!! Dr Hebbler is passionate, caring, nurturing and extremely gifted. She goes above and beyond with every appointment. I know that my dogs will live a good long healthy life. I trust Dr. Hebbler and highly recommend her! read more

I am VERY surprised to see that there are a few negative reports for Dr. Hebbler and Healing Hope. I have been a client of hers off and on since 2003. She has always been very loving and kind to my animals and ALWAYS given them the BEST care ever. I recently went through some health issues with my 10 yr old Shih Tsu. She had been seen by another vet (in an emergency situation) for a sudden seizure. Prior to this seizure she had a terrible red skin rash. This vet did thousands of dollars worth of tests along with various medicines and still could not come up with a diagnosis or an explanation for the seizures that continued. the skin rash did improve somewhat but never went away completely. This vet actually told me that she did NOT think that she was having seizures, rather just "passing out". Now I must add that I have a daughter that has seizures and one of my employees had a dog that had seizures and BOTH of us witnessed my dog having a seizure. Dr Hebbler was out of town caring for an ill relative at the time, but as soon as she returned she was able to see my dog, Sophie. She muscle tested Sophie, determined that her seizures were caused by allergies to all grains, changed her food and gave her some homeopathic remedies AND Sophie has been seizure free since that very FIRST VISIT. The rash is completely gone as well. All of Dr Hebbler's employees have been very kind and compassionate and I have NEVER had a problem getting answers to my phone calls or emails or texts for that matter. read more

Dr. Hebler and her staff are exactly what I want for my dogs. Natural, caring and excellent with animals and people. We've been going for a couple years now and I am entirely confident referring them to anyone. read more

My maltipoo & I were referred to Dr. Hebbler by my amazing naturopathic doctor whom I trust. I believe in holistic healing for humans, so I was ecstatic to learn pets could be treated in a natural fashion as well. I knew immediately after meeting Dr. Hebbler that I had been guided into loving, experienced hands. She is intuitive on a spiritual level as well as highly intelligent on a human level. My sense is that Dr. Hebbler cares deeply for animals, which I am very grateful for since my dog is my family. I appreciate that she muscle tests my little guy before he is prescribed any vitamins, minerals or tinctures. My intention is to provide the best quality care possible for him & I am confident that Dr. Hebbler is the right fit for us. I am happy to have the opportunity here on yelp to share my experience & recommend her to people and their furry loved ones. read more

Healing Hope rocks! Dr. Hebbler is a one of a kind veterinarian and healer. I speak from personal experience for my animals and myself. She has opened my eyes to the bigger picture of why our animals are here and their purpose in our lives. She walks the talk and lives the life she asks pet owners to consider, to be open to healing through our animals and to allow our animals guide us on our path. She asks us to ask the tough questions and to consider for a moment the alternatives to what is currently not working. She believes in an integrative approach to our pet's health and wellbeing and is an advocate for empowerment through education and truth. And in response to the person who wrote the not so kind review; holistic veterinary care is not the same as standard veterinary care and neither is the cost, but consider the cost of kidney disease, malnutrition and cancer. One visit to Dr. Hebbler can literally change the course of your life and most importantly your pet's. Peace and love people, peace and love. read more

For the first time ever, my cat Claire sat on my lap. And we've had her one year and four months. She is a smart, sweet cat who wants to be near us, but not lovey or cuddly. And all you Bengal owners know, she's full of energy. We've been working with Dr. Hebbler, a holistic vet, and the results have been amazing. When the regular vet told us Claire needed to go on cortisone shots for the rest of her life due to digestive issues, Dr. Hebbler switched her to a raw diet and supplements to heal her gut and she is thriving. Last week, she gave me a strategy/ritual for evenings in order to get Claire to calm down and relax. When she told me, she would eventually sit on my lap. I laughed out loud and told her I wasn't a believer. And now this--not only did she sit in my lap, but she fell asleep -- six nights later! Seriously unbelievable. You can find Dr Hebbler's info at www.healinghope.net read more

I wrote to this hospital and left a voicemail telling them about my dog with cancer. They never even bothered to email or respond to me. What an awful way to treat a person going through a terrible time. I heard great things about holistic treatments but I won't find out through this place! read more

Dr. Hebbler is a truly amazing individual whose care encompasses not only the animal but also the owner. Her level of care and committment is remarkable. And the results speak for themselves. I have been able to improve my asthmatic cat's life tenfold by treating him without steroids or inhalers. Diet and environmental changes along with some homeopathics have living a healthy life. read more

Lots of money, her muscle testing contradicted blood work so is she right? Waited very long and saw something horrific going on at her office that was the final straw...be prepared to do raw diet not really an option for our group- she made it clear after spending HUNDREDS that was the only way and if so then why all the other stuff she sold me? Disappointing to say the least. Very money driven, lots of rules, charged by the minute and we still need our regular vet as she is not a regular vet! Lots of promises nothing delivered. read more

Don't even bother. Charged almost $225.00 for a 45 minute phone consultation. Not to say that veterinarians shouldn't be compensated reasonably but I've paid a good bit less than that to see the my own therapist for the same amount of time. In any event, I learned nothing that I didn't already know. She was more intent on talking and talking and wouldn't let me hardly get a word in edgewise. When I expressed confusion over the cost she became beyond rude and completely thoughtless. read more

Dr. Hebbler has a gift....not only does she have the knowledge she has learned but she has a sense she feels a knowing beyond any Vet I have ever been to. I am a dog breeder and when I have a puppy or dog that had a need I just am not sure about I go to her. I just brought her a puppy that was injured by it's Mom (fell out of the whelping box and she tried to get puppy back in by herself). The puppy was 10 days old and it's neck was bent to one side, shoulder raised up in pain and could not crawl normally. She worked with this puppy and 7 weeks later it is 90% NORMAL. Running around happy. read more

After the shocking loss of one of my beloved dogs within days of a cancer diagnosis, I began searching for a way to gain better insight into my remaining dog's health. Dr. Hebbler's holistic vetrinary approach has been an amazing way for me to better understand my dog's wellness and health. I was looking for a way to enhance his life as well as mitigate the chances of another devasting terminal diagnosis leaving me helpless. Through Dr. Hebbler's guidance on diagnostic testing and options, behavioral and dietary change, as well as homeopathic medicines and tinctures, my dog's life and well being have been improved. His fatty tumors have shrunk, his skin is less itchy in general as well as when he's had his flea allergy flair-up, and everyone remarks about how much softer his coat feels. All of these tangible measures of his wellness seem to be a result of his new holistic healthcare regime provided by Dr. Hebbler and I'm extremely grateful to her for it!!! read more
