Dr. Andrew Dainsberg, DVM

Here is a little bit about myself:

I've been a practicing veterinarian in Santa Barbara for the past ten years or so. I have worked as a regular and as an emergency vet at local SB veterinary hospitals, but these days I am concentrating solely on my veterinary acupuncture practice... I feel very fortunate to have a successful holistic house call practice in this beautiful place!

I have a Bachelor's degree in Veterinary Science and a Doctorate degree in Veterinary Medicine from the University of Minnesota. I am a member of the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association. I am a Certified Veterinary Acupuncturist; endorsed by the Society of Traditional Veterinary Medicine of Beijing. Study at the Chi Institute of Chinese Medicine under Dr. Huisheng Xie, DVM, PhD has given me the highest quality and most comprehensive acupuncture training available to veterinarians.

I use acupuncture, herbs and other natural therapies to accomplish my mission. I believe regular and alternative types of medicine can and do compliment each other. I enjoy providing my patients with a safe and effective alternative.

Personally, I love my canine kids (adopted from DAWG & Boxer Rescue LA) and enjoy a wide variety of activities such as paragliding, snowboarding, beach walking with dogs, guitar and rollerblading.
