Our admiration for Dr Khalsa began several years ago when we brought her on board to help us with our epileptic Pug, LuLu. Dr Khalsa tirelessly helped us through LuLu’s condition, and single-handedly pulled LuLu out of complete liver failure – much to the astonishment of LuLu’s local team of veterinarians.

We again called Dr Khalsa to come on board for a kitten we adopted last year. Our kitty, Venus, was saved by a local rescue group from a hoarder situation, where she was stepped on by the homeowner and suffered a broken back and traumatic spine injury that made her a paraplegic. We did acupuncture treatments for Venus and did home physical therapy which had a measure of success, but there was still an extreme weakness in Venus’ hindquarters and she tended to flop over on her hips and drag her hind legs behind her.

We knew that if anyone could help Venus, it was Dr Khalsa. And sure enough, Dr Khalsa came to the rescue. She recommended that we do stem cell therapy for Venus. We were excited to give this a try, having read how stem cell therapy is seeing success with spinal cord injuries. Venus’ stem cell therapy lasted for one month, but we saw improvement in her strength and coordination within the first two weeks! And although the treatment has been finished for a few weeks now, we are seeing continued improvement in Venus. Unbelievably, Venus is now able to jump up AND down off of our couch and is landing her jump off with all four feet strongly and squarely hitting the ground. We are in amazement at how great our kitty is doing! It is truly like a miracle.

Venus is happy and playful and active, and is choosing to stand up and walk and run rather than simply flop over and drag herself around.

Thank you with all our hearts, Dr Khalsa, for never giving up, thinking outside the box, and for giving your all to animals and the people who love them.
