I went to Dr Wicher for prolotherapy on my right wrist and to obtain a prescription for Rapamycin…read more This office is run solely by Dr. Wicher and her receptionist--no assistant or nurse, which is rare for any medical office. The first two treatments of prolotherapy March 10 and Apr 14 went without incident, but on the third May 20, unlike the 20+ treatments over the years I received from another doctor who always used a thin-gauge needle with no local anesthetic, Dr Wicher used a thick gauge needle that looked like the type used for blood draws. I trusted her judgment, which was a mistake, as the injection caused intense pain, tingling, numbness in my fingers, and damage to the tendon. I found out later she used a local anesthetic which she did not in the first treatment. The pain and weakness in my wrist is WORSE than before the treatments began, and persists to this day, to the extent that I it affects my daily life (I have trouble driving and cannot open a jar lid with a jar opening tool.) In my previous visit Apr 14, I received a prescription for 12 capsules of 6mg compounded Rapamycin. Before the botched prolotherapy treatment I brought up studies that showed that the compounded form has a bioavailability of only 30%. Dr Wicher did not dispute and agreed to send a new prescription to my pharmacy for Sirolimus, the generic form of Rapamycin. When I got home my pinkie/ring fingers were numb and unusable so I called the office to report expecting a follow up call, but I never received one. Three days later after multiple calls the receptionist told me the doctor emailed me: 1. Lia said you were having some numbness in your wrist? Is this still present? It could have been from the anesthetic but should wear off 2. Rapamycin: I am not comfortable ordering the non-compounded drug for you unless you obtain additional labs(CMP, CBC and regular lipid testing). You gave me some labs from April. When I did your initial consult, I did a focused prolozone one based on what you were coming in for. I would need to obtain further information before proceeding with this drug. I responded by asking her why she needed new labs when she had already given me a prescription based on the lab work the month before, Her response: "Since the actual drug is a bit more potent than the compounded one is why I want these labs. " This was puzzling. She chose to prescribe the compounded version because the potency is low as to be ineffective? She had already prescribed compounded Rapamycin a month ago, and then agreed to the generic. So why did she change her mind? The only reason I can think of is that, after my report of numbness, she grew concerned about liability and reversed course--not because of clinical concerns, but professional ones. There were more issues. Attached is Customized Client Schedule I received after my exam. Notice that recommendation 2 Dihydroberberine does not contain exact doses, but only a recommendation for the product she sells in her office. Recommendation 1 is also for a product she sells in her office. Also notice the hand written recommendation for "Caster Oil Packs-see handout". I was not given the handout and had to ask the receptionist for help. She added "wool flannel" to the sheet. Also note the prescription for Rapacycin 6mg. Another issue occurred during my first appointment in which my blood pressure reading was high, over 150/90, indicating Stage 2 Hypertension. I was given absolutely no guidance on how to address this concern. I cannot recommend this practice: * Overworked: The doctor is spread thin, as she has no assistants. * Poor communication: She doesn't respond to emails or calls in a timely manner (5 days to respond to second email). * Neglected critical signs: Like failing to address my Stage 2 Hypertension * Vague instructions: Handout was missing, instructions unclear, product dosages unspecified. * Conflict of interest: She recommended supplements that she sells in her office, I assume at a profit. * Competence concerns: Offers a broad menu of therapies, but may lack depth in some. Based on my experience, if you are considering prolotherapy, only consider practices that specialize in orthopedics and have extensive experience with prolotherapy. I no longer trust Dr Wicher. I canceled my next appointment, and will no longer be seeing this ND.

I can't say enough great things about Dr. Patel and my experience with testosterone pellet therapy…read more The insertion process was surprisingly easy--there was absolutely no pain during the procedure. It was a little uncomfortable for about a week afterward, but nothing difficult to manage, and after that I didn't even notice it was there. By the second week, I started seeing real improvements. My sleep dramatically improved, which was the first major change I noticed. Shortly after that, my libido returned--something I honestly thought was gone for good. I've also experienced a noticeable boost in energy and much clearer thinking, with the mental fog I used to struggle with significantly improving. Dr. Patel has been incredibly attentive and thorough throughout the entire process. She closely monitors my progress and makes sure every question or concern I have is addressed. I always feel heard, supported, and well cared for. Her nurse is also wonderful--so kind, attentive, and helpful, which makes every visit even more pleasant. The office environment itself deserves a mention too. It's incredibly welcoming and has such a peaceful, almost zen-like atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. Dr. Patel and her team are truly the best, and I'm so grateful for the positive impact this treatment has had on my health and quality of life.

She's helped me get to the bottom of several health issues and is always incredibly fast at seeing me if anything ever arises. Her dedication to helping the body with not only medicine if needed, but with mind body awareness is something I think is so important because she treats you specifically as to what you need for your entire well being. She and Estrella make you feel so seen and really ease your mind when you are going through stuff. I have always had medical anxiety and they put me at such ease....and of course seeing Violet the wonder dog helps too as dogs always help me stay calm and comforted! I never feel anxious when I go to Heart of Bodhi, between their concern and calm energy and the soothing atmosphere of the practice, I feel absolutely safe and relaxed. Dr. Patel really cares and is so thorough! I have autoimmune stuff and she has been such an integral part of my feeling healthier! I can't recommend her enough. I've seen so many doctors for various things in my life and can say without question that she is the first doctor who has been there for me and made me feel so incredibly seen and cared for. She doesn't cut corners or brush things off, she take you very seriously and helps you get to the bottom of whatever is going on with precision, care and a medical and wholistic approach that I appreciate beyond measure. She and Estrella and Violet are Incredible and I feel beyond blessed to have them in my corner!!

I went in for my appointment, and I was a week over my due date. I had never had acupuncture before so I was nervous, but Dr Lo made me laugh and put me at ease.

I felt it was kinda pricey but I went into labor later that night but it was my first baby, so it progressed very slowly and gave birth Tuesday night.

From the moment you walk in, the environment is impeccably clean, calm, and thoughtfully designed--it strikes the perfect balance between medical office and a relaxing, spa-like atmosphere. The staff is exceptionally knowledgeable and attentive, taking the time to explain each treatment in a way that feels both informative and reassuring. I typically come in for B12 shots, (I recommend the Honey Badger) , and the process is quick, seamless, and handled with great care. Efficiency, level of professionalism, and attention to detail is what you receive throughout the entire visit. I've personally noticed a meaningful improvement in my energy levels and overall sense of well-being following my treatments. Equally important, I feel completely confident in the safety and quality of care provided here. Scheduling is easy. You can call or check the schedule online. Appointments run on time, and every interaction reflects a high standard of service. NOTE: Parking is free for the first 90 minutes, but keep in mind the day and time you go can make it a challenge to find parking. Give yourself time. You park in the same lot with A LOT of restaurants. You need the code to get into the office building. No appointments passed 5pm and not Saturdays. I will absolutely continue coming back.

Well, 5 years ago my friend in Hawaii told me about Dr. Shen and that…read moreshe had worked with her Mother 40 yrs.earlier. I was told I had Lymphoma and had started Chemo, which I wasn't to keen about. Dr. Shen was really interested in my whole being and formulated an herbal tea for me just by looking a pictures of my tongue and my blood work from at the lab. Dr. Shen has reformulated my tea 4 times, !st. time was to keep my energy up and so far I haven't missed any work unless it was climate related. Then being the chemo blew my large intestine open, I had an external clostomy bag. Dr. Shen reformulated the tea again so the Cardiologist then signed off on the reverse surgery. Another time Dr. Shen found in my lab work a life threating sepic issue that 2 other Palo Alto Drs. missed. Basically Dr. Shen is a real human being that cares about your good health, she has sent me a Christmas gift of edible mushrooms and even sweet rice which helped me gained back the 45 lbs. lost. She even called after Xmas to see if I would like some more shitakie mushrooms as her other patience. i have told dozens of friends and relatives about her as she saved my life!

This Chiropractic office was recommended to me by another chiropractor that lives closer to me (5…read moreminutes away) that was seeing my child for constipation issues. I was unaware that they were an hour away from my house. I can truly say that the care my child and I received from Dr. Flores and Dr. Sepulveda is 1000% worth the drive. My child's constipation issues have gone away. I am pregnant and have been getting chiropractic care since around 24 weeks and have gotten so much relief from it. What sets this office apart from the rest? A lot! They have a play area right by the receptionist that includes toys and books for the kids, they hand out stickers, always have goodies on the counter for you to enjoy. This office has chiropractic care, massage therapy, and acupuncture. My one visit is not just chiropractic care. It begins with a back stretch while laying face down on a special massage table that moves my hips and legs up and down, a heating pad on my back, a massage, then comes the adjustment and a couple stretches. The adjustment consists of moves I've never had done to me before but have made a huge difference in my comfort throughout this pregnancy. My favorite part about coming here is that Dr. Sepulveda goes above and beyond to make sure I leave feeling good every time. I've gone to chiropractors in the past that do their routine adjustment and if I say I still feel discomfort they say to come again in a couple days or a week. Like I mentioned earlier, my 1 hour drive is worth the experience and relief this office provides me. I highly recommend Dr. Sepulveda and her team.

Plus the doctor provides all kind of tips on my baby's development which are much appreciated.

Dr.Cathy is truly a dream come true! I had a very positive experience with my previous…read morechiropractor during my first pregnancy four years ago, but she moved out of state, so I did my research to find who could help me with my pregnancy this time around. If you're reading this review because you're also trying to vet chiropractors let this be your sign that Dr.Cathy is the one for you! As I said, I was happy with my previous chiropractor, but Dr.Cathy goes above and beyond my previous experience with a pre/postnatal trained chiropractor in every sense of the word. From a scientific standpoint she is light years ahead of anyone doctor I've ever seen; she's runs several non invasive tests and thoroughly explains the data. She truly reads through your patient history you self-submit and genuinely cares about getting a full history before beginning treatment. I have been seeing her every week since my first trimester- I am now at 33 weeks and have been completely free of aches & pains my entire pregnancy! Maybe this is TMI but I have also been completely free of constipation which I attribute to her work, because truthfully I am not always the healthiest eater. Also, at just 33 weeks, my baby has already flipped to be head down! This was one of the main reasons I wanted to see a chiropractor in the first place- if you're in the same boat, trust in her magic! Finally, besides all the obvious physical benefits that I have just mentioned, the mental well-being I have experienced from seeing Dr.Cathy goes unmatched. Getting to see her each week is such a gift, I truly leave each session feeling so confident and uplifted. It can be really rare to find doctors who are so affirming and I legitimately feel like she cares about me as a human rather than just another client. Last thing- if you're a parent who often has to bring your kid to your appointments, please know that Dr. Cathy is not only understanding of this but goes out of her way to support parents in this position. Every other doctor I go to has signs everywhere saying no kids allowed, but she actually sets up the lobby with books and games that my son loves so much that he asks if he can come with me to my appointments! That is the ultimate gift to any parent!

She even helped turn my first baby when she was breech in the womb. Both of my kids started getting adjusted with her when they were just a few days old.

She is gentle, nurturing, and kind, and she always goes above and beyond to educate us about our health. I highly recommend her.

She also practices hypnosis, and I will definitely be returning to her for that. I definitely recommend her practice if you're new to energy healing.

I've had the opportunity to work with Irene twice--once in July and again in December--and both…read moresessions were incredibly meaningful. The first time I met Irene, I was seeking clarity around what I was experiencing physically and energetically, as well as guidance around my path and next steps in life. I wanted to go deep and connect with my higher self in a clear, grounded way. That session brought forward insights I wasn't expecting and helped me better understand myself, my gifts, and the direction I was being guided toward. The clarity I gained stayed with me long after the session ended. Since then, my life has shifted in big ways, including relocating and stepping into a much clearer sense of purpose. When I returned to see Irene in December, the session felt like a natural continuation--deeper, more embodied, and incredibly supportive. She creates a space that feels calm, safe, and easy to relax into, which made it much easier to access deeper levels of awareness. Irene's presence is steady and intuitive, and she asks thoughtful questions that help guide the session in a way that feels very personal and aligned. When she incorporated her quantum healing work, I could feel subtle shifts in my body even before the hypnosis portion began. Although the session was about two hours, it felt expansive, and I left feeling clearer, lighter, and genuinely supported. Irene is gifted at what she does and holds space with care and integrity. If you're considering a hypnosis or quantum healing session and are looking for someone who is both grounded and intuitive, I highly recommend working with her.

During my first session, I was already disappointed. They promised a full treatment that included UV light therapy, but once I was already connected to the machine, I was told they couldn't perform that part because they didn't have the proper tubing. No one informed me ahead of time. The second session was far more concerning. The procedure was handled by a nurse who openly stated she had only been there a few months and had no prior experience with EBOO treatments. She began the procedure unsupervised. During the session, the tubing clogged twice, interrupting the process, that was something that didn't happen in the first session. After that session, my health quickly declined. Within three days, I ended up in the ER with pneumonia and symptoms close to a heart attack. According to the doctor, this was likely due to excessive ozone exposure, which can cause oxidative stress and damage to cells, as well as complications affecting the heart and lungs. Months later, I am still dealing with the consequences and now require inhalers. Before this, I was a very healthy and active person, I regularly biked and hiked. I went in simply looking for a treatment that was advertised as a way to "clean and oxygenate" my blood. Instead, I walked away with permanent health issues. Communication and accountability were also unacceptable. I tried contacting the person who sold me the package (Ben) while I was in the hospital and received no response. The only time I heard back was after I threatened to dispute the credit card charge, and even then, there was no concern expressed, no follow-up, and no attempt to offer solutions despite me being hospitalized for several days. There was no doctor on-site supervising the procedure or ensuring patient safety. That alone should raise serious concerns for anyone considering this treatment. In my experience, this facility prioritized profit over patient safety. Based on what I went through, I strongly urge others to stay away if you truly love your health.
