New Clients

Welcome to Balanced Pet NW, where we bring the best of holistic and modern medicine together to care for your furry babies. With a foundation in nutrition and a partnership between our family and yours, we find the most effective low-toxicity approach to achieve optimal well-being.

New Patient Exam

Starting price: $320 (exam only) plus any diagnostics or vaccines as agreed upon between you and the veterinarian, based on lifestyle needs.

Dr. Watson is trained in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which views the body as a balanced whole to find the root of health problems. We offer conventional therapies such as medications and surgery where appropriate, as well as different holistic services including acupuncture, hands-on soft tissue techniques, herbal medicine, laser therapy, diet, and supplements. We believe in using the best tool for the job, combining alternative methods with modern medicine. You can find more information about what we do on our services page.

Your first visit will include:
  • A review of previous medical records
  • A one-hour thorough TCM and conventional exam, with time to discuss diet & supplements, vaccine protocols, dental health, parasite prevention, and any specific health issues or goals
  • Annual bloodwork, fecal parasite screening, and a Heartworm test
  • Titer testing for immunity, or vaccine boosters if requested

We are looking forward to our partnership with you for your pet’s best health.

We will send you:

  • A confirmation message when we have added your appointment
  • Paperwork to fill out at least 24 hours before your appointment

We request:

  • The names of clinics from whom you would like us to request records
  • A deposit of $320 to hold your spot for your pet’s initial visit

Dr. Watson has been our vet for the past year.  I am so grateful for the compassionate care she gives my dog and the knowledge, guidance and support she gives to me in my journey to be a well-informed, caring and loving pet parent.

Sharon, Hoodsport, WA

Dr. Watson has been an invaluable person in my pets’ lives – Barley and Thor.  She has treated Barley conservatively, allowing him to avoid surgeries, using PRP therapy as well as ANT to calm his fears and shaking. I have unshakeable trust in her.

Sharon, Suquamish, WA

Doctor Watson and her team are compassionate and professional. My dog, Sparky, and I have nothing but respect for their knowledge and care. They taught me a lot regarding nutrition and keeping Sparky healthy. I appreciate the warm atmosphere, and I have no hesitation recommending this practice to others. Outstanding!

Deb, Suquamish, WA

Dr. Watson and her team at Balanced Pet NW are a trusted and treasured partner in the care of our dogs. We so appreciate the balanced and integrative approach they take with animal health . Whether it is providing routine ongoing care, specialized surgical procedures or assessing a tricky case, Dr Watson takes great care to assess the situation and is very thoughtful in treatment and recommendations. When my animals are in the care of Balanced Pet NW, I know they are treated with the utmost respect and care. As the human representative, I feel heard, well-informed and enabled to make good decisions on behalf of my dogs. We are very grateful!

Alex, Bainbridge Island, WA

I went to 4 different vets before I found Dr Watson. She’s thorough, caring, knowledgeable, and she works with you to find individualized treatments that are safe and effective. My dog loves her and Amber, and actually enjoys vet visits because of their approach. She’s helped us so much, and I’m thankful I found her.

Hope, Redmond, WA
