Hello, I am Dr. Joey Sneva. I graduated from Colorado State University’s Veterinary School in 2002. For 16 years following graduation, I worked as a small animal primary care vet in the Fort Collins, CO area. In June of 2017 I became certified in veterinary medical acupuncture (cVMA) with the goal of being able to provide a more natural approach to help pets with a variety of health issues. After seeing the amazing response to acupuncture and other integrative therapies in my patients, I decided to transition my practice to focus completely on animal rehabilitation and acupuncture. I completed my certification in canine rehabilitation (CCRT) in March of 2020.
I am proud to have been both an instructor for the Curacore Integrative Medicine & Education Center’s Medical Acupuncture for Veterinarians course and the acupuncturist for VCA Veterinary Specialists of Northern Colorado from 2018 until 2022. In 2022 I had become so busy in my mobile practice that I decided to focus all my attention on treating my mobile patients.
I treat animals of all kinds including dogs, cats, horses, farm animals and exotics. I truly enjoy working with animals to bring them to their most functional and comfortable condition possible.
I have really seen the benefits of the home visits to observe and examine pets in their home environment. Most importantly, the pets are more comfortable at home, but it also gives me a better understanding of their daily activities, needs and the owner’s goals for the pet. This helps me to design the most effective treatment plan possible for the pet. I also enjoy taking more time at the home visits to get to know the people who love these animals!
