The AVMC opened in March 1987, as a dedicated centre for holistic therapies and holistic veterinary
medicine. Christopher Day, founder and practice principal, has been using natural medicine since he qualified in 1972. His
first introduction to alternative medicine was homeopathy, which remains his foremost specialisation.
We now offer referral and second opinion consultations, for all species, including equine, dog and cat, farm animals
and exotic pets. Our usual case load is made up from diseases and conditions that have appeared refractory to more usual medical
attention and have failed to respond sufficiently to modern conventional medicine.
While we can make no promise iof success, we are happily able to report a large majority of positive outcomes.
We are delighted to discuss the therapies, techniques and philosophies with our veterinary colleagues, animal
owners and others concerned for animals.
Other activities include clinical research, writing books & articles, teaching & education and aiding
the media.

Home of the AVMC
The AVMC is homed in an old rural farmhouse setting, that
is managed organically and primarily with ecology and biodiversity in mind. We use no weed killers (herbicides), insecticides
or other agro-chemicals, so we do not keep the premises artificially pristine. It is also our family home. The result is a
relaxed environment, which animals rarely perceive to be a veterinary establishment.
