Veterinary Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine

A Truly Compassionate Experience – Thank You Dr. Torlone and Kellee We can’t say enough wonderful things about Veterinary Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine, Dr. Stephanie Torlone, and Kellee. Our sweet Luna had always hated going to the vet — hiding under chairs and refusing treats the moment we walked through the door. Cancer treatments had been hard on her and on us, and we were just hoping to bring her some comfort. From the moment we arrived, the difference was night and day. The space felt warm, calm, and inviting, not like the cold, rushed environment we’d experienced elsewhere. During our first visit, Luna stayed tucked under the chair, but by the second, she walked in on her own, curled up on the comfy blankets on the floor, and actually relaxed during her acupuncture treatment.

So thankful for Dr. Torlone and Kellee. I met them years ago with my very sassy, geriatric chihuahua mix with a plethora of issues…somehow, they won even her over. In recent weeks, my young dog has had some very scary seizures and they’ve been amazing in helping find a treatment for him that doesn’t jump straight to meds that have a ton of horrible side effects. Even more, Kellee has been an angel for being so accessible to me any time my dog has something weird happening or I made a mistake with medications. She’s answered both texts and calls over the weekend and early morning…and I don’t think I’d have made it through these past couple of sleep-deprived weeks without her help. THANK YOU!

Getting treatment the last 3 months for my 14 year old, advanced heart disease chihuahua has been nothing short of awesome. The transformation and genuine improvement that I've seen after getting consistent treatments has been really wonderful to experience. Angus had started having syncope episodes a few months prior to starting acupuncture sessions with Dr. Torlone. The episodes were happening about every 6 weeks, and even though he was managing fairly well with medications/supplements/diet/regular veterinary care alone, I wanted to add consistent acupuncture to his treatment plan. I am very happy that Angus was able to become a patient, because he has gone over 10 weeks now without collapsing which is already a noticeable change to what we've come to anticipate as a new normal.

Dr. Torlone and Kellee are both so wonderful and I’m so happy to have found them. Marley gets so excited to come and he is in the best health he has ever been since diagnosed with cancer. He barely coughs anymore since starting acupuncture and Chinese medicine with Dr. Torlone! Thank you so much for all the treats and toys he gets during every visit! Marley can’t wait to go back in a few weeks.

I am so thrilled to be a new member of this practice , it is so down to earth . The way vet med used to be before it became corporate . It’s the first time since I left Virginia that I have found a vet the reminds me of my beloved vet back home . I wish I had known of the practice sooner . I have had pretty bad experience with vets in Connecticut since moving here with my Labrador Luke the vet offices make me so anxious in general after dealing with his leg fracture , allergies, paying hundreds for years to find out what’s going on with his ears and never getting answers and just waiting in a corporate waiting room over a hour after appointment to be given the run around but they where so fast to swipe a card . My anxiety is gone and I look forward to any future appointments needed .
