A Deeper Kind of Care

Collaborative Pet Healthcare. A belief in relationships. And a passion for making a difference in your life. This is a deeper kind of veterinary care, provided by an integrative veterinarian. Because the love that you two share deserves no less.

The Integrative Veterinary Clinic specializes in providing high-quality veterinary care with a uniquely personalized approach. What sets us apart is our commitment to providing alternative and complementary therapies alongside traditional treatments. Led by Dr. Steve, a highly experienced integrative veterinarian with over 30 years of expertise, we have become a trusted destination for pet owners seeking exceptional care and consultation. Our ability to assess each patient through several diagnostic and therapeutic lenses allows for the development of an individualized, multi-faceted approach.

We understand that many pet owners are increasingly interested in exploring alternative therapies, particularly as their pets age. That’s why we offer a range of Integrative veterinarian treatments such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, and ozone therapy, which are considered complementary or alternative in most clinics. These therapies can provide additional options for improving your pet’s health and well-being.

★★★★★ Dr. Nichols is so caring and kind to our Pomeranians that they love going to the Vet office finally!! I wish we could find a Vet as good as Steve in Florida for the time we spend there 😉 Thanks Dr. Nicholscolby D.colby D. ★★★★★ kind, patient care for you precious fur babies.Agnieszka S.Agnieszka S. ★★★★★ The staff was incredible! The worked with us with getting our cat in and taking care of our needs. Fabulous place!Kelley BKelley B ★★★★★ My pups 1st visit. They were awesome.Looking for natural alternative for treating my pups painful condition.Darlene K.Darlene K. ★★★★★ Great staff and excellent vets who care for your pets!Kelsey C.Kelsey C. ★★★★★ Today was my first visit at this clinic with Dr. Nichols and it was exceptional. I truly felt like my pup and I were heard and taken care of. I have a ton of respect for all involved in veterinary clinics, but this type of visit was what I had always hoped for. It means a lot to have a doctor who kindly listens to all of your concerns with patience and compassion. I have felt so helpless trying to understand and care for my old pup who has needed me more than ever at this part in his life. Although he is dealing with multiple issues, I finally am comfortable with the treatment Dr. Nichols has started for him. We drove an hour to see him and plan on switching our 2 year old pup into his care as well. It's worth it.Katelyn, our vet tech, was phenomenal as well. All around a great practice and will recommend to our family and friends.Cortney R.Cortney R. ★★★★★ So glad I found Dr. Olden-Stahl...I didn't think I could find anyone as wonderful as Dr. Eric Fraser but she really comes close. When Dr. Fraser died, I changed to a highly recommended 5star veteranary clinic which missed my dog's diagnosis of cancer...He may not have had cancer for the entire 2 yrs I was with that clinic but I had a litany of symptoms that concerned me. They focused too much on his legs, citing arthritis...I decided to check out Integrative VEt for acupuncture and a second opinion...one visit and Dr. Olden-Stahl nailed it! While looking at a new x-ray, Dr. Olden-Stahl mentioned that my dog would make me make a decision as early as 2 weeks! I was shocked and skeptical as he was still a perky senior dog...well, one day short of 2 weeks, my dog was ready for the rainbow bridge. She was a compassionate and gently towards both of us even though we had just met that day. I will know what vet to use if/when I get another pet...I am senior, too!laurel glaurel g ★★★★★ Dr Olsen Stahl listens, and collaborates with me regarding the care for my pup, He came to us with, out of the ordinary issues, she is able to think out of the box. Indy is a much happier fella since we started seeing Dr. O!Monica R.Monica R. ★★★★★ Dr. Nichols, Dr Pearson and our vet tech Kate have always treated us with such kindness and even the ladies at the front desk have always made sure both my dog, Talos and I are comfortable and welcomed. They are always extremely informing with any questions I have, I originally came to them seeking holistic methods to treat my dogs incurable autoimmune disorder and when I say I had a lot of questions, I had a lot of questions and not once did they get bored or brush off anything I wanted to know. The disease he has causes perianal fistula’s and it’s certainly not an easy disease to treat to begin with and they’re always coming up with plans to help us combat the awful symptoms it throws at us. My dog is also dog reactive and they’re always catering to that as well because his reactivity is out of him being anxious around other dogs presence and they always make sure he has a comfortable experience when we go. You can most definitely tell they are all very genuine and compassionate about the animals they care for as if they were their own, I know my dog isn’t the easiest case they’ve had and they always give him lots of love and patience while he’s there. Overall would recommend The Integrative Veterinary Clinic time and time again and if you’re on the fence of choosing a holistic vet you will not be disappointed in their care.Lilly C.Lilly C. ★★★★★ Dr. Nichols and his crew are the best. No one else even comes close.Ryan M.Ryan M. ★★★★★ I have followed Dr. Nichols from a previous place and understands that I want to care for my cat in a holistic way. He is mindful of my concerns.I appreciate the care he has taken for the two pets i brought to him.Staff is very nice!Annette B.Annette B. ★★★★★ Five stars are not nearly enough for Dr. Nichols and his team at The Integrative Veterinary Clinic! They make you and your pet feel comfortable and important from the minute you walk through the door. Dr. Nichols truly has a gift. He understands the needs of the pet and uses a traditional + holistic approach in his treatments. My lab, Reggie, was diagnosed with laryngeal paralysis when he was 11. With laser treatment and auto-sanguinous therapy, he was comfortable and happy and we got to spend an extra 3 years with him! Dr. Nichols and his staff go above and beyond over and over again. They are an intuitive and creative team of wonderful people and I am so grateful to have met them. I highly recommend!Angela M.Angela M. ★★★★★ Our animals love going to see Dr. Nichols! He and his staff are extremely professional and are very responsive. He is a very knowledgeable vet and you can tell he loves working with animals!I had read a bad review on here and I just want to say that I find it really impossible to visit the vet and have vaccinations completed, but not have any records to show this. Dr Nichols and his team have always provided the rabies tag, plus paperwork & on top of that an email to document and verify their appointment/ vaccinations. This individual Sally who posted the bad review I find hard to believe her statements, just saying!Sarah G.Sarah G. ★★★★★ So thankful to have found this clinic. Dr. Nichols and his staff were so loving, caring, considerate, and helpful in caring for our beloved English Springer Spaniel, Tucker (14 years old) . Dr. Nichols' knowledge in Integrative Care helped us to have our "Tucker" with us for another year without using harsh drugs. We are so thankful for the extended time with our beloved pet. Dr Nichols and The Integrative Veterinary Clinic staff are now caring for our new puppy. Thank you!Coleen J.Coleen J. ★★★★★ Very caring staff and Dr. Nichols is awesome!Deena C.Deena C. ★★★★★ If you want the best care for your pet but dont want to bow to the spay nuter agenda they offer alternative options and look at the wholistic health of the dog very caring informative and transparent badgely gives it 5 paws 🐾Leah Anne E.Leah Anne E. ★★★★★ There was this super annoying hound there. And since she was ours, we had to take her home.David N.David N. ★★★★★ Fantastic staff and incredible doctor! They worked with us to get our miniature dachshund from total paralysis in the back legs to walking again when we elected to do conservative treatment using acupuncture and laser therapy. Highly recommend!Aaron C.Aaron C. ★★★★★ You don’t find a vet or staff like this one very often. Dr. Nichols and the whole staff are amazing beyond words. Their first concern is your pets well being. They truly love animals, and want to see them at their best. Dr. Nichols and his staff has treated our pets as his own. He is honest, kind, compassionate, and truly loves what he does. I know it takes a lot of trust to hand over your family to a new vet, but believe me this is the office for you. Dr. Nichols treats our three cats, and two dogs. And he will always have our business as long as we are here.Gabriella PGabriella P ★★★★★ You won't find a better Vet. Dr. Nichols is truly the best.T. H.T. H. ★★★★★ Love Dr. NicholsWe have followed him for over 5 years, and he has now opened up his own office. Wouldn't trust my fur babies with anyone else.Staff is very friendly, and always call after an appointment to make sure everything went well and to see if I need anything else. Highly recommend!Aleah F.Aleah F. ★★★★★ Professional & caring help to pets & their owners.Sherry C.Sherry C. ★★★★★ I highly recommend Dr. Nichols for integrative veterinary medicine. He is an exceptionally intuitive practitioner and a steward of compassionate relationships for his clients and their beloved pets. He has been my vet since 2010. Now at his new integrative clinic, I am impressed with his thoughtful approach creating a unique atmosphere focused on my dog and me. For my senior dog, the laser treatments and acupuncture made a world of difference for his comfort to playfully run again. For my Husky diagnosed with liver cancer, Dr. Nichols’ intuitive approach supported enhanced quality of life for my Husky and me following his diagnosis. The combination of Ozone therapy, Vitamin C infusions, nutritional counseling, and his kindness for both of us made the difference. During his treatments, my Husky also became fond of one of the techs – and she gave us a personal gift cookbook for baking natural ingredient doggie treats. Truly endearing. I am especially grateful to Dr. Nichols and the tech for their genuine love and expertise.JJ ★★★★★ Dr Steve has been amazing for my dogs - going above and beyond. He has cared for some very challenging cases and helped my very senior dogs to live their best life possible through very grim times. Compassionate, caring and very open to listening and discussing. I am grateful and appreciative - thank you.Sharon K.Sharon K. ★★★★★ I cannot say enough good things about this clinic. Dr Nichols and staff go above and beyond for my dogs. He is very thorough, compassionate and his diagnostic skills are amazing. If you’re looking for the best care around this is the place!!!Judy C.Judy C. ★★★★★ Dr. Nichols and his staff are amazing! We have taken our animals to Dr. Nichols for years. When my 18-year-old cat was dying, he was so caring and helpful through that difficult process. Recently, Token, our elderly Basenji, had to have several teeth removed. Dr. Nichols and his staff were so kind and caring. They have followed up multiple times to check on how he was doing. I would highly recommend Dr. Nichols and his staff at The Integrative Veterinary Clinic!Lisa A.Lisa A. ★★★★★ Dr Nichols has been caring for our puppies for over 10 years. He is professional, warm and caring and our dogs are always calm and comfortable when visiting for their appointments…He is thorough and compassionate in his care of both senior and young dogs. He cares for our special needs girl and they have an amazing bond…..His staff are friendly, helpful, compassionate and professional….No other Vet clinic for us!!!ROBIN Silverstein K.ROBIN Silverstein K. ★★★★★ We have had our dogs cared by Dr. Nichols for over 20 years and the level of care never waivers.Dr. Nichols and his staff not only exhibit an exceptional level of care, but their knowledge and experience is truly impressive.Recently Dr. Nichols and his staff took the necessary time and gave that extra level of care to make our “Riley” comfortable during a procedure on his knee.We know you love our boys and thank you for the great care!We would highly recommend anyone to bring their pets to The Integrative Veterinary Clinic!Dave & Kathy SandersKathy S.Kathy S. ★★★★★ I have been seeing Dr. Nichols for my veterinary care for 20 years, first for my 2 chocolate labs (passed) and now for my South African Mastiff. Dr. Nichols has always provided the best care I could hope for whether it was western medicine or eastern holistic care. His acupuncture skills helped my sweet lab with his arthritis until the very end. Dr. Nichols is compassionate and clear and concise in conveying his expertise to the lay person. His staff have always treated us with respect, care, concern, and compassion as well. We are thankful to have Dr. Nichols as our Vet!Scott S.Scott S.Scott S. ★★★★★ I have had Dr. Nichols take care of our personal pets for many years. His knowledge and application of both traditional and holistic veterinary medicine has helped my animals live quality and extended lives. Dr. Nichols has a true gift in determining what is best for your pet and how to help them live their best life. Highly recommend!Jane R.Jane R. ★★★★★ Dr. Nichols is amazing. Our male dog can be unpredictable around men, so we were nervous for our first visit. The atmosphere is so relaxing. Our boy did great. It was a wonderful experience for both us and him! Thank you.Tricia A.Tricia A. ★★★★★ Dr. Nichols and staff are patient, respectable, and take the time to get to know your pets needs.Jason A.Jason A. ★★★★★ Dr Nichols and his staff are wonderful! They take the time to answer your questons. Their focus is on the health of your furry kiddo and how they can help. Even doing procedures it is done at their pace and unrushed. My pups loved him and we will be back!Melissa E.Melissa E. ★★★★☆ Love this vet. It’s really expensive compared to other places, but the dr really sits with your pet and talks to you/ answers any questions you have. My lab had skin allergies for 10 years. I thought they were from the environment because they only appeared on his belly, but the dr suggested I switch him off of chicken and beef and move to colder protein. I was skeptical honestly, but my dogs been on rabbit and whitefish since and it has pretty much cured his allergies. If you can afford it, it’s a nice quality vet who won’t jump straight to medicating your dog.Haley C.Haley C.js_loader

I’m grateful for this group! They’ve saved 3 of my animals in emergency situations! SO thankful for all of them! Especially Dr. Baum. He’s been there to save my pets plus been there when I’ve had to say goodbye. They truly care about the animals they take care of!

Chrissy W.

Dr. Baum and his staff are a fantastic group of people. They take good care of my fur babies. But on top of that, he always asks about the family and remembers from year to year what everyone is up to. Impressive!
