As a house call veterinarian, Dr. Verma saw many patients with high levels of anxiety and fear. Being a dog or cat’s home affords a unique perspective into his or her behavior, environment, and lifestyle.
Personalized Veterinary: Behavior and Rehabilitation has Fear Free Certified staff who can help attend to your dog or cat’s mental health through environmental modification, desensitization/counter-conditioning techniques, pheromone therapy, nutraceutical therapy, and pharmaceutical therapy. We strive to keep an ever-growing list of anxiety/fear-sensitive groomers and sitters for our wide service area in Southeastern and Mid Michigan to help increase the number of positive interactions your dog or cat has with humans.
These services have been enriched by Dr. Verma pursuing behavior residency training under the mentorship of Dr. Marie Hopfensperger, DVM, DACVB.
Common conditions treated with veterinary behavior modification include generalized anxiety/fear, noise phobia, separation anxiety, fear of strangers, resource guarding, fear-based aggression, compulsive behaviors, inappropriate elimination, spraying, litter box issues, inter-dog aggression, and furniture destruction.
The first appointment typically lasts about 1 hour to ensure we attend to all of your cat or dog’s needs. As with all of the services, we provide direct doctor communication to our clients. To learn more about Dr. Verma's experience and qualifications, please click here.
