We do NOT provide primary care medicine. While acupuncture is a wonderful complement to Western medicine, it is NOT a substitute for it.<\/p>
If you think that you have a serious health concern, such as a serious infection, an unusual growth, or an injury that won\u2019t heal, or if you want to speak to someone knowledgeable to review the details of your medical history with you, you need to see a primary care physician.<\/p>
Do NOT expect us to diagnose or treat something really serious or life-threatening.<\/p>
We need you to take responsibility for your own health.<\/p>
We can provide complementary care for conditions which require a physician\u2019s care, such as, the side effects of Chemotherapy, but we are NOT medical doctors, and do NOT provide primary care services.<\/p>
We exist because patients pay for their own treatments \u2013 it is a sustainable business practice model.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
