I used this vet practice when I live in the Bay area 5 years ago. I just returned here and went to a cheaper vet nearby and had a bad experience with one of my small/older dogs so I decided to remain with them for my pets' care.
This incident which could have been detrimental to my pet made me realize that you can't skimp on your pets' care as it could cost their life. They are more expensive than other vets in the area however I feel I can entrust my pets' well being with them especially after the aforementioned incident with another vet.
Hours are conveient and they have several specialists on staff.

They really do have a little bit of everything here. It's a typical Berkeley hippy/new-age styled establishment but it's presented in a very clean, efficient, and professional way.
They also have all sorts of herbal remedies which sometimes are a good alternative to Western medicine
Tip: Use their video rental store! They have a pretty decent selection and it's only a $1.00 a day! The one problem with this is that since it's a tiny little annex, they are often out of the good stuff.

i recently moved to southern california and one of the biggest bummers is that i am far from the healing practice of koala at on point acupuncture. a friend told me about koala and i was a bit skeptical, as i needed acupuncture for hormonal/women-related issues. but i was delighted to find koala one of those exceptional people who could sit with anyone and connect. the intake was long and thorough, he asked great questions, and listened attentively to my history and my needs. koala also has excellent skills with needles - they didn't hurt at all. i believe he trained at five branches, which was where my former healer trained, and clearly, they are doing something right! i am sensitive to spaces too, and on point is clean, open, and good energy -- with really cool and interesting photographs on the walls. that plus the soothing music, combined with koala's easy-going and wise nature, helped me relax right into treatment. he also prescribed herbs and nutritional info that have helped me and my menses quite a bit. i hope to move back to the bay area so i can return to on point again.

A wonderful doctor! Great with esthetics (which I can't really say about a lot of other doctors that have been doing this for years), very effecient, a lovely person, incredibly competent, and a Yale medical graduate to boot. I get my botox, filler, laser hair removal, and spider vein treatments done with Dr. Brozowski. I think it may be a little pricier than places run by nurses and technicians, but I won't let anyone but a doctor touch me. I'd rather pay a few bucks more than have to worry about bad results...
Pros: Great atmosphere, great results
Cons: Have had to wait for 20 min. in the past

The Bone Room, located on Solano Avenue in Berkeley, always turns heads of people on the street as they pass by. Maybe it's the bat skeleton or preserved butterfly collection, or coffin (that sometimes appears around Halloween) that peaks their interest, or maybe it's the smell of formaldehyde.
The Bone Room has been a source of delight and disgust for many children and their parents. Cries of "Mommy, can I get this chicken foot" or squeals of terror abound the store on a daily basis.
They also have a selection of "feeder mice" and crickets, for those of us who have a scaly critter back home. You can purchase a green tree frog too, which might make a better pet as far as Mom is concerned.
The Bone Room has been featured on Channel 5's "Bay Area Backroads" and "Evening Magazine".
Be sure to check out the albino snake in the back of the store.

Originally referred to Dr. Hank because of an ectopic pregnancy, both
my husband and I always felt we were in the most capable hands. We were very well taken care of and all our needs were met. We went on to have our first sweet daughter under Dr. Hank's care, and discovered that besides excellent prenatel care, Dr. Hank is a master surgeon. His office staff are the best and provide an atmosphere of warmth and professionalism. Dr. Hank is funny and speaks honestly without hesitation, which we appreciated after other doctors who would not even answer our basic questions. I cannot recommend Dr. Hank and his staff enough.

Elephant Pharmacy is unlike any pharmacy I've ever been to. They're like if the tea and health part of Whole Foods was gently inflated to ten times its size. They have healthy solutions for pretty much any problem somewhere in their store. Plus they have delicious snacks, sweet and savory treats, fun toys, a great book selection, and a ton of video rentals (including lots of mainstream titles) that rent for just a dollar each. And free classes! And massage! And makeup that won't give you cancer!
