First of all I called and was on hold for over 30 minutes and no one answered. I called back and went through the same thing again. I called a third time and finally got through to someone. That individual was clueless as to what was going on with my scheduled procedure. She told me I was scheduled for a different procedure than the one that was ordered. When I explained I was supposed to get a different procedure she informed me I was incorrect. I called the Cleveland Clinic to verify what had been ordered and I was correct North Shore had me scheduled for the wrong test. I called them back and phone rang for 25 minutes straight and no one answered. I waited 45 minutes called back and had the same result. I then called the Cleveland Clinic back and they put me on hold and tried to contact North Shore directly. They came back on and told me the offices were closed, that was at 3:23 PM and North Shore states on their website they are open until 4:00 PM on Fridays. North Shore claims they have won awards and are highly acclaimed, based on my dealings with them it must be for gross incompetence and unprofessionalism. Do yourself a favor and stay as far away from this 'medical circus' as you can. From what I can see they couldn't care less about their patients only the patients insurance and their bottom line.

So I haul my sorry excuse for a body to North Coast and give the Good Doctor the abridged version: Years of working on concrete floors, on my knees, hauling cast iron pipe, then on weekends, hey! Let's ski Squaw Valley top to bottom couple times! (I can hear the sand in my knees shifting, recalling the moguls, the absurdly long boards, the long drive back to the Bay Area. Ouch.) First, I get a complete food workup and discover that I have two sensitivities, which are usually associated with arthritis. Now, I know what you're thinking, Darlin', and I ain't THAT old. Just because there's snow on the roof... and... uh... It ain't the size of the ocean... but... um... Well, I'm not sure what I was saying, but my food rules are now in place and I'll be a son of a Republican if I don't feel about six or seven decades younger. I may even stand up and wobble in celebration! Oh, and I enjoyed the acupuncture. Really. It has a calming effect while at the same time allowing those unusual electric-like jolts of energy release. I was told, though, that it was their first experience of removing the needles and having vodka spurt out. "If people bring so much courage to this world the world has to kill them to break them, so of course it kills them. The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry." Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms

Head + heart = healing. That seems to be Dr Tamara's method, which works for us. She's mindful in…read morespeech and action, sensitive to how we describe - and our how our bodies present - our symptoms. I heard she had a relatively new technique for addressing allergies: non-invasive, non-pharmaceutical - just what every mother wants for a suffering child. While Dr Tamara did not promise miracles, the results seemed to be just that. My 8 y.o. daughter had dark circles under her eyes from a week of sleeplessness due to allergies that robbed her of breath at night. We tried all the over-the-counter stuff, from ointments to syrups to chewables. When we walked into Dr Tamara's office, my child was struggling for every breath. We learned her sensitivities were to trees and flowers, not the pollens we had suspected. Thirty minutes later, with a mild sniffle, she could breathe - deep, lung-filled breaths. There were no pills to take, no changes to our daily routines, no side effects. About three months later, the seasonal winds blew in more irritants and my daughter asked to see Dr Tamara again...knowing first-hand the power of her healing methods. Dr Tamara is our first choice health advisor for our family. No matter that her services are not covered by insurance, the fees are affordable especially considering the results (and savings on prescription drugs!).
