Huo Luo Xiao Ling Dan is one of my go-to formulas for pain management, especially in palliating canine osteosarcoma. In a previous webinar I discussed the formula as a whole. In this webinar we explore the individual herbs that make up this formula.

Case reports on my experience palliating patients with nasal carcinoma with Chinese Herbal therapies, survival times and my most commonly used formulas.

Numerous research articles are published on the mechanisms of action of compounds within Ginseng (known as Ren Shen in Chinese Herbal Medicine). This is a powerhouse of an herb for cancer patient care. This webinar you will learn about one way Ginseng may help control cancer which is resistant to anti-angiogenic therapies. I have used Chinese Herbal Formulas containing ginseng integratively with drugs like Palladia safely and to good effect. I have also managed a number of patients with advanced pancreatic carcinoma with herbal therapies alone, exceeding published survivals reported for conventional treatments.

In this webinar I share how I approach the discussion on chemotherapy side effects and address common client fears and concerns about chemotherapy. Many people are understandably frightened of creating a very poor quality of life based on experiences they have had with human friends and family who have undergone chemotherapy treatment.   In addition, I still have clients come for consultations who say their vet told them not to do chemotherapy because their dog will get super sick and it isn't "fair to them."   In this MVP Perspectives webinar I share my general discussion with clients about chemotherapy side effects, quality of life concerns, and one important test to remember to screen for patients who may, indeed, do very poorly with chemotherapy. When discussing chemotherapy options I start my conversation with clients like this: "I'm not attached to what you decide. My goal today is to give you as much information as I can about the treatment options for your pet so that you can make an educated decision based on accurate information."

This is a concern I encounter often, not only from my clients but also have heard from veterinarians. This webinar addresses this issue and the concerns around it. There is one scenario we know that surgery is recognized as worsening metastasis. For most situations, "down staging" cancer by removing the bulky disease significantly improves our ability to treat and control cancer so the clinical relevance of this concern in patient care must be carefully considered in light of the individual patient. We will talk about these specific situations.
