TESTIMONIALS
What Our Patients Are Saying
Hear from our patients about their experiences and the positive impact acupuncture has had on their health and well-being.
I can’t recommend Dr. Gao enough. I had a pinched nerve in my neck that was causing me an incredible amount of pain in my neck, shoulder and arm. My PCP kept giving me different types of meds to help with the pain, but nothing was helped. Advil did nothing. I started doing PT and that helped my pain level go down from an 8 to a 5, but I was still in pain especially in the mornings. By week 5 I decided to try Acupuncture, Dr. Gao was very kind and professional and let me know I’d only need 4 sessions. After the first two sessions I started feeling some relief and after my 4th session my pain was pretty much gone. Im mad at myself for not going sooner and suffering in pain for 6 weeks. I highly recommend Acupuncture and specifically Dr. Gao, especially if you have a pinched nerve! Also Disha at the front desk is great, she’s so kind and knowledgeable.
In the past I had a lot of personal experience in getting acupuncture treatment for different kinds of health issues, ranging from joint pain to ear problem to dizziness. Earlier this year I started to have shoulder joint pain which was getting worse to the extent that the pain could cause me to wake up in the middle of night. I knew I needed to get acupuncture treatment. So I started searching acupuncture doctor close by and found Dr. Gao. After the initial consultation, I decided to give Dr. Gao a try. After a couple of sessions treatment, my shoulder problem got improved a lot. At that point I know Dr. Gao is a very experienced and knowledgeable acupuncture doctor. After a little more than month of treatment, my shoulder joint pain is gone and I can have a good night sleep again. I highly recommend Dr. Gao if anyone needs to seek acupuncture treatment.
