Dr. Christine Fraser (DVM University of Tennessee) is a Maine licensed veterinarian trained in traditional Chinese medicine, including acupuncture and herbal therapy. Complementary therapies are designed not to replace regular veterinary care, but to serve as an additional form of treatment to help your animal with pain, chronic conditions, and other medical conditions that have not responded well to Western medicine.

Dr. Fraser worked as an equine racetrack veterinarian in New Hampshire and Massachusetts for two years after graduation from the University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine in 1993. She then worked for eight years for the State of Maine as Commission Veterinarian for the Maine Harness Racing Commission. Once the State of Maine Animal Welfare Program was reorganized in 2003, Dr. Fraser was hired as the first full time State Veterinarian for the Animal Welfare Program, where she investigated hundreds of complaints of Cruelty to Animals, inspected and advised the state's many licensed kennels, animal shelters and pet shops, and testified in court for the prosecution on animal cruelty cases. She was involved in many successful prosecutions of animal cruelty including the Buxton Puppy Mill case, the Fern Clark case and the DeCoster Egg Farm ( Maine Contract Farming) case. After years of public service, Dr. Fraser was inspired by her own dog, a Golden Retriever named Sally, who was plagued with hip dysplasia and two forms of cancer, to pursue an education in alternative veterinary medicine, including canine rehabilitation and acupuncture. Although she is a firm believer in conventional Western veterinary medicine, she has come to realize that it has its limitations, and alternative or complementary medicine like traditional Chinese veterinary medicine (TCVM) can offer animal family members further relief of pain and symptoms, as well as cures for medical conditions. Also, holistic TCVM offers a low risk alternative that allows a diagnosis based upon the condition of the entire animal- taking into consideration their personality, preferences, medical history, and present physical symptoms. Treatment is natural and non-invasive and intended to encourage the body to heal itself.
