Dr. Christina Barbier has a handsome son, Grant. She also has two feline kids, Midnight and Isabella, as well as Xanax, a Malti-poo. She is a native of New Orleans. After attending the University of Alabama at Tuscaloosa, Dr. Barbier went on to graduate from Louisiana State University School of Veterinary Medicine in 2000. Upon graduation, she relocated to Las Vegas and has worked as a small animal practitioner. In the past, she participated in several mission trips with the Peter Emily International Veterinary Dental Foundation (PEIVDF).
Although there have been many extraordinary new medical advances, Dr. Barbier decided to go back to school to study the centuries old technique of acupuncture to enhance the traditional medical care of her patients. She received her formal training at THE CHI INSTITUTE under the world-renowned holistic veterinarian, Dr. Huisheng Xie. After studying both western and eastern medical practices, she has gained an understanding of how the two approaches can work together and integrates them in her patient care. Thus, Dr. Barbier practices INTEGRATIVE medicine- a combination of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine and conventional western medicine to diagnose and treat her patients. She uses modalities such as acupuncture, essential oil therapy, herbal therapy and food therapy.
After having her own relief veterinary company here in Las Vegas, Dr. Barbier decided to pursue her dream of opening a wellness center and pet resort. This facility would enable her to treat both ends of the leash. It has taken nearly 3 years for Dr. Barbier’s vision to materialize into Magnolia Pet Wellness Center.
