"Problems Learning? Irlen Syndrome may be the cause"

If you have headaches, trouble reading, learning or paying attention, you may have a little-known and prevalent disability called Irlen Syndrome.
This visual perceptual disability is caused by an inability of the brain to process the full spectrum of light. It affects 25% of the population and 50% of those identified as Autistic, Learning Disabled and ADD / ADHD, who can be helped by colored lenses specifically tinted to modify the wearers' specific disability.

Dr. John M. Simon, DVM

"Holistic and Natural Pet Care."

Dr. John Simon is the owner of the Woodside Animal in Royal Oak, Mi. where for over 30 years he has been healing dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, ferrets and rodents with both alternative/holistic and conventional medicine. 

Dr. Simon has been certified in acupuncture by the International Veterinary Acupuncture Society. He has also earned a diploma in animal chiropractics by the American Veterinary Chiropractic Association. He is a past president of the Oakland Veterinary Medical Association and has served on the board of the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association. He is the author of 4 pet care books, has lectured at national conferences and writes regularly for Natural Awakenings Healthy Living and the new Natural Awakenings Healthy Pet magazines.

At Woodside Dr. Simon can provide the best of both worlds - both conventional and alternative. 

Conventionally he offers medical, dental and surgical services. Holistically he provides nutritional counseling, acupuncture, chiropractic, herbal therapy, homotoxic therapy, pulsed magnetic therapy, soft laser therapy, flower essence therapy, holistic cancer therapy, prolotherapy, and several other forms of energy medicine. Woodside is a unique, very person/one doctor practice where you are assured of seeing the same doctor on every visit. Unlike larger multi doctor practices which rely heavily on technicians to take histories, perform diagnostic testing and administer therapies, Dr. Simon prefers to do many of these jobs himself. Consequently, he will get to know your pet better and you will get to know him better.

Dr. Simon believes that there is no veterinarian or physician that comes close to providing the healing power available through the body's own immune system. He, therefore, believes that his job focuses on helping your pet's immune system perform its tasks more efficiently. This includes advice on: how to provide you pet optimal nutrition, ways to minimize stress and toxins in your pets' environment, methods available to regularly detoxify your pet, and approaches for strengthening the patient's immune system.
