"Thank you Dr. Boyer for saving our Yoda. I had taken Yoda to another vet when he first got sick and after spending a lot of money they said there was nothing else they could do for him. I was told about Dr. Boyer and got Yoda in to see him. Dr. Boyer did a thorough exam and educated me on the proper diet, gut loading, heat lighting etc. Yoda was treated for vitamin a deficiency and now our boy is doing better and on the road to recovery."
