Buckwalter Veterinary Clinic
"Where smart pets take their people."
Acupuncture Therapy
Acupuncture is a component of Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine that involves the insertion of a thin sterile needle into specific points (acupoints) throughout the body. Acupoints have a high density of free nerve endings, white blood cells, small blood vessels, and lymphatic vessels. Stimulation of acupoints has been scientifically proven to release a variety of neurotransmitters to promote pain relief, relaxation, tissue healing, anti-inflammatory effects, immunoregulation, antifebrile effects, hormone and reproductive regulation, and regulation of gastrointestinal motility. Acupuncture is commonly and effectively used to treat a variety of issues including, but not limited to: pain, osteoarthritis, behavioral issues, chronic disease (heart, lung, kidney, liver, digestive, allergy, hormonal, reproductive), performance enhancement, prevention of disease, neurologic disorders, and hospice care. Both acupuncture and chiropractic are best used in combination with a western medical approach to achieve optimum health for your animal.

The entire staff at Buckwalter Veterinary Clinic are always friendly, efficient, and caring. I recently had a last minute need to bring my dog in. ... They squeezed me into their schedule, and took care of my dog without an issue. Dr. Dickler even followed up with me by text and offered great advice as a follow-up to our appointment. Highly recommended!read more

Both of our cats have been treated here. Tom Cat spent 3 days and Miss Tah had surgery. The concern, care and responsiveness from the entire staff... helped to alleviate our anxiety. They made the time to listen and answer all our questions. The best veterinary clinic hands down. Thank you for all you do. 🙏🏻read more

I have been taking my dog to Buckwalter Veterinary for 3 years first with Dr. Bink who has retired and now with Dr. Iyer. I have found the whole to... be capable and compassionate. They have helped Brody through several bouts of pancreatitis and are always attentive and patient in talking me through how to care for him. Highly recommend.read more

I cannot boast enough about Dr. Iyer or the staff at the clinic. I could really tell how much Dr. Iyer cares for the animals and that this is more... than just a job to him. He was so helpful in late December when I brought my guinea pigs in with a UTI. He listened diligently to my concerns for my boys and helpful in more ways than I can describe. It is very nice to know that I have found a reliable vet office with a genuine staff!read more

My husband and I, along with our three furry kids were visiting Hilton Head Island and had to seek medical care for one of our girls, Lillie. If I... could give more than four stars, I would! What an awesome practice. Not only was Dr. McGinnis amazing, Marley deserves kudos for being so empathetic and caring to Lillie. And.....I received a personal text message from Dr. McGinnis on her day off checking in on Lillie. We visit HHI regularly and have found our home-away-from home veterinary practice without a doubt. Thanks Buckwalter for doing what you do, the Clark family is appreciative!read more

The DR’s and staff at Buckwalter Vet Clinic are very helpful, knowledgeable and kind. We moved to SC about 1 1/2 years ago. Our dog Abby has chronic... allergies and ear infections. Dr Dickler has been the only doctor to get these allergies and ear infections under control.Dr Iyer has also been treating Abby for shattered ACL as well as patella issues. He has performed surgeries on both Abby’s legs. The staff is so caring and very responsive to your needs. They communicate with you every step of the way and always there for you and your pet. Love them all lots. More importantly Abby loves them too and trusts them. I do not hesitate for one minute to call them when Abby needs them.read more

We were visiting Hilton Head from out of town when our dog ate a cooked chicken leg (she grabbed it off the counter... bad girl!) About 20 hours... later she starts showing signs she needed to be checked out. We called about 9 veterinarian clinics until we found this awesome clinic. The others wouldn’t help us or wanted to send us an hour and a half away. This vet office accepted us at short notice, worked us in, and took care of our Molly! Luckily, she is fine and should recover. We are insanely thankful for veterinarians like this one who help in times of true need! Thank you so much!read more

I was visiting the area (former local) and had an emergency happen to one of my dogs. Dr. Iyer and his staff took wonderful care of my dog especially... given the severity of the situation. He and his staff treat each animal as if it was there own. I was truly amazed when Dr. Iyer checked in the day following the surgery to check in on Scout. This level of care and dedication is unsurpassed and this has been one of the best vet visits I have ever dealt with. Thank you all so much for the hard work and care!read more

I recently moved back to the area and needed to find a Veterinary Clinic that could assist in grooming my 18-year old cat. His fur was matted and... needed attention. Buckwalter Veterinary Clinic was able to give us an appointment the following day. Additionally, due to my cat's age they took the necessary precautions to ensure he would be fine with the process. He has been groomed and appears to be doing well. The care and concern they showed from the moment I walked through the door to completion was very welcoming and the facility was very neat and clean. Highly Recommended.read more

Think of everything that a dog could get, my dog has had it. We have been going to Buckwalter Veterinary Clinic for years but in the last six months... they’ve become a second family.
