Clinic Overview

Finding a truly knowledgeable and compassionate homeopathic vet is rare, and we feel so lucky to have found dr Michael. From the first consultation, it was clear that he is someone who genuinely listens, not only to the human, but to the animal as a whole being, with respect for their individuality, sensitivity. What sets him apart is his ability to combine deep medical knowledge with a subtle, intuitive understanding of natural healing. He doesn’t just treat symptoms, he treats the underlying terrain, helping the animal come back into balance gently, yet effectively. We’re so grateful to Michael. We contacted him for our dog who had lots of issues after long periods of antibiotics. He was able to sort them out with a true sense of caring and patience. He was able to assist us even while we were abroad. If you’re looking for someone who understands animals energetically as well as physically, and who treats your companion with the reverence they deserve, Michael is the vet you want by your side.

Our Bernese Mountain Dog, Bindi was diagnosed with arthritis. A course of anti-inflammatories and a monthly injection were prescribed by our vet. We did some research on the monthly injection and found out that it can cause a range of side effects from mild to very serious. Bindi had just turned 4 and we didn't really want to go down this route. We went looking for an alternative and came across Michael Clancy Homeopath website. After a very thorough consultation, Michael prescribed a series of herbs tailored to Bindi's needs and 8 weeks later she is pain free, walking soundly and back to her happy and sometimes naughty self :-) I cant explain how these herbs work, but they are amazing! We are so delighted to have found Michael and very grateful for how he has helped Bindi.

Homeopathy Gratefulness : re. 3 year old black shetland pony Midnight experiencing sweet itch since birth.... I believe Michael Clancy is a wizard with those homeopathic remedies. Our little pony is uncovering more and more levels of comfort and ease regarding all the equine sweet itch symptoms thanks to Vet Michaels' incredible Columbo style observations, and wonderful intuition. Midnight asked me to tell you that homeopathy works : ) Also, when our little 13 year old Chihuahua Soul friend Mystical Misty started struggling with a strange cough, our normal vet diagnosed a heart murmur. Therefore we sought and found Homeopathic Vet Michael Clancy in Kilkenny as we did not want to put her on lots of prescription drugs, having endured that upsetting path with our old Dalmatian. After a very thorough consultation with lots of questions answered, Misty was prescribed a sequence of homeopathic remedies, diligently administered as Michael suggested. The hacking cough actually disappeared! She's now 14 and still bombing around bossing chickens. Thank you Michael, my daughter is very grateful to have her pal Misty naturally well : )

After months of chronic diarrhoea and failed treatments from several vets, my 3-year-old Cavachon finally found relief thanks to Michael, an exceptional homeopathic vet. His thorough, compassionate approach made all the difference. Within days of starting treatment, her health improved dramatically — she’s now happy, energetic, and thriving again. I’m so grateful to Michael for giving us our healthy girl back!

Michael's remedy really helped mare who has been very prone to colic. I would highly recommend Michael he's kind nature and attention to every detail about your animal is second to none. He cares and has made contact with me several times after treating my horse to see how she's been doing.
