A few years ago I came home early from a trip because of terrible shoulder and back pain. I tried…read moreto find an appointment before I got on the plane. No luck! Then I saw the reviews for Dr. Belnap on Yelp & lo and behold he was able to fit me in the week I returned . After looking at x rays of my shoulder and back from years ago & examining me he sent me to get an MRI . I was relieved it was an MRI and not a CAT scan as they have been shown to increase your chances of getting cancer. The MRI place he recommended was able to get me in for the next week.. my co-pay was under $100 for my back and my shoulder . Soon after this I saw Dr. Belnap again & he gave me a cortisone injection in my shoulder and some medication which helped greatly . A few months later the same in my back ! Last year I somehow hurt my back so badly I could barely walk. Once again, he was able to fit me in quickly and gave me an injection, which helped somewhat. However, it was Christmas holidays and I was going away for a special celebration and my back couldn't handle it. He was able to fit me in during the holiday season quickly, gave me an epidural and I was able to go and be fine. he's very caring and and we'll do whatever he can to help.

While trying…read moreto schedule Botox treatment for facial pain, I had a rude interaction with a staff member and the call ended abruptly. When I asked if there was a manager I could speak with, I was told there wasn't one available and no one ever followed up with me. Later I received a message saying Botox appointments were being paused due to insurance reimbursement issues and my appointment was canceled. I understand that insurance logistics can be complicated, but I would have appreciated at least being offered the option to self-pay, especially since I know the office has offered Botox as a self-pay treatment before. I respect Dr. Sachi and the care provided, but I hope the communication and patient experience on the administrative side improves so other patients don't have a similar experience.

My stress level was also very high. Mieko has done acupuncture to relax the nervous system and then to heal the arms. She also worked on my back and shoulders. To top that, she gave me possibly the best massage I ever got on my back and shoulders. Wow. Within 1 session my pain was down 80% and I was able to work again. After the second session the pain went away completely. Amazing. I now go to Meiko once a week for as long as my work load is high to be able to support my body with this additional load. Mieko is very gentle and caring individual. She is passionate about helping people and she is very knowledgeable. Her acupuncture and massage combination is unique and it's a winning combination.

She's the most open, warm and caring hearted person I've ever met. You will know what I mean when you meet her. Definite 5 stars! You will not regret going to her but I will say that she's ruined me because I can't be satisfied getting a massage anywhere else now. No other masseuse can do the job...must be the combine magic of acupuncture and massage. She's got some seriously strong hands but she's gentle where I need it also!

This wouldn't be so bad if she was just taking money from patients and prescribing them placebos, but many of the things she does not only have the potential of not helping, but also causing harm. Perhaps worst of all is that she simply doesn't seem to understand the scientific reasoning behind a lot of the therapies she prescribes, only their marketing. I took my mom to Dr. Haas for an ozone injection into her shoulder for an injury, soon after which my mother developed Parkinson's. When I researched ozone, I found about half of sources suggested it was a neurotoxin and not neuroprotective, but the doctor wasn't aware of any of this. I feel a lot of regret that trusting Dr. Haas with my mother's care may have been what lead to Dr. Haas causing her Parkinson's. Similarly, she recommended "exosomes" to my mother, an unproven theoretical stem cell derivative, and my mom ended up developing breast cancer. Exosomes have been linked to the spread of cancer and are a completely unproven alternative therapy that it is currently illegal to administer. Probably the last straw was when she started sending out anti-vaxxer e-mails and trying to treat COVID with some other nonsense alternative therapies (light therapy. I will alwys regret bringing my mother to this doctor as I believe it stared the sequence of events that led to her disability and early death. Dr. Haas is a well intentioned but extremely dangerous doctor and should be avoided at all costs. The first principle of medicine is to do no harm. Dr. Kori Haas has left this behind a long time ago.

I wanted to find an alternative to cry it out method and Jen was the perfect solution. While there were a few tough nights Jen was by our side through and through. What I noticed was Jen didn't treat this like a gig or just going through the motion. She was genuinely invested and that's why I would recommend her to anyone who wants to find an alternative sleep training that moves at the pace of your child. If I went back in time, I would hire her again in a heartbeat. By graduation, my baby was able to sleep in the crib through the night! P.S. Jen we love you! Thank you again for everything!!

I don't even know where to begin! I had reached out to Jen after having had worked with a sleep…read morecoach for 2 months to no avail. The previous sleep coach had a very strange method, which involved only my husband doing bedtime since she thought it would be easier for both baby and mom? My baby went from co-sleeping to solely contact napping to sleeping in the crib, and handling overnight wakes pretty well (with the previous coach) but bedtime itself was a nightmare. My baby would pretty much cry herself to sleep every night, and the spike in cortisol caused 5am wakes EVERY morning, and we were stuck in that cycle for months. Days before I had reached out to Jen, my husband had informed me that he had to go on a work assignment to a different state, and would be gone within days. I was extremely anxious since sleep training was in process, and unresolved, and well because I had never once done it myself. Jen quickly got back to me over text, and scheduled our first intro call. As soon as she heard the anxiety in my voice, she moved mountains to find me a slot in her very busy calendar, and was flexible enough to change a few things around and get me going with her training from one day to the next (a process which takes a few days to go through the intro, the material, etc). She met me exactly where I was at, and promised to help support me. Jen is an extremely warm and empathic person, her care for me within minutes of talking to me came through on the phone. She knew I had no village, and soon would be solo parenting, and she became just that for me, a partner and a village in a matter of hours. I know I was not an easy client, I was anxiety ridden, and very traumatized and conditioned by the old coach who had a very strange and cold way of viewing babies and sleep. Jen carefully deconstructed a lot of that old way of thinking, and was genuinely available every time I would text her, even if it was just to encourage me or remind me to breathe. My baby went from crying HYSTERICALLY at every bed time, to looking forward to going in the crib within a matter of days. Jen was OK to go from a very rigid and cold method, to something that was FAR BETTER suited for my baby's temperament. Even without knowing my child, she was able to gather what her temperament was with just a few questions about her. I was very surprised. On MANY ocassions Jen's empathy towards me brought me to tears. I was finally understood, heard, and held! I was no longer scared of bedtime. Jen's tailored method worked, but she is also very data driven which is extremely important for me. She has a specific way of gathering how much sleep each individual child needs, and is able to identify the child's "sweet spot" as she calls it, to try to optimize sleep training and sleep overall. As she reminds me often, babies are not robots, not every night will be perfect, but Jen gave me the stamina to be OK with this and to roll with the punches! Sleep is better overall, but so is my mindset, and that is ALL thanks to Jen. I was thrilled that she graduated my baby and me quite quickly, but at the same time a little sad, because I felt like I was saying goodbye to a very dear friend. Look no further for sleep training, trust me on this one.
