Dog & Cat Success Stories

Willow was diagnosed with Gracilis Myopathy in September 2024, and since then she has had three stem cell treatments. All of these treatments were performed by Dr. Joy Fox-Beaudet. In addition, Willow had laser, shockwave, acupuncture and ultrasound treatments at Arcata Animal Hospital to enhance the stem cell treatment. As a result, the stem cell treatments have stopped the progress of the disease, so she is able to walk, trot and run normally. Without this treatment and physical therapy, her right hind leg would very likely be completely lame. On the contrary, she is able to lead a normal life, going to the beach and playing with her friends. We are very grateful that we could get such excellent care for Willow here on the north coast of California.
