  • Jan Walsh, Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, Veterinary Acupuncturist

    After receiving my BS degree in Zoology from the University of Florida, I taught junior high school science for a while.  I moved to Michigan in 1972 to be an organic farmer.  In 1985 I entered Michigan State University College of Veterinary Medicine and graduated in 1989, 2 months shy of my 43rd birthday.  In the fall and winter of 1999/2000 I took the International Veterinary Acupuncture Society's acupuncture course and have been practicing acupuncture on dogs and cats since then (with the occasional rabbit, also).  I do not practice Oriental medicine, which is an herbal medicine, but use the acupuncture as an adjunct to my Western medicine.  Therefore, I treat orthopedic problems almost exclusively.  Since retiring from general practice in January, I now work Tuesdays here at Fruitport Animal Hospital exclusively practicing acupuncture.  I also do occasional relief work here and elsewhere.  I love working at the Fruitport Animal Hospital.
