The worst experience I've ever had. They charged me $154 without my permission, claiming it was for…read morea $22 copay--which no one ever told me about! I went there from November through early January, and not once did anyone mention a copay. If they had told me before my sessions, I would have paid it. Instead, they waited until I stopped going to hit me with a $154 charge. What if I had continued going? Would they have charged me $1,000 out of nowhere? This is beyond unprofessional. At any legitimate facility, the front desk ALWAYS informs clients about copays upfront. To make matters worse, their acupuncture specialist, Konstantin, was just as unprofessional. Every single time I came in, he asked me the same questions over and over--"Did we do warming last time?" "Have you ever had back pain or an accident?" From November through January, it was the same thing! How can a so-called specialist not remember his patients or their treatments? But the final straw for me was my last visit. Konstantin caused me severe pain when inserting the needles. It was extremely painful, and I immediately told him. His response? "Oh, that happens sometimes." No concern, no adjustments--just a shrug. And the pain didn't go away after the needles were in; it lasted the entire session, another 25 minutes of agony. I do not recommend this place. They only care about money, not their patients. Stay away!

Irina Cooper is incredible. She's very knowledgeable in traditional Chinese medicine (including…read morecupping and gua sha) and acupuncture. She's helped me immensely with nutritional advice as well. The place also offers massage and she is a VA vendor (taking veterans).

Hyannis location. My experience is subjective. The doctor wasn't bad. Not the greatest, but right…read moreon money. Front desk staff, however, that's a whole other thing. Some are borderline rude, some just don't care. Like, I've never seen follow up appointment that wasn't free. Not here. Do not expect them to volunteer that info though. I was like, ok, if I spent this long in some medical school, I'd want $180 for 5 minutes of my time too. OK. But getting records- good luck! For the services I paid for! They will be tossing you around until you get angry and take time off your work, the one that pays your bills, and march there and get it yourself. Meanwhile, with money this office charges for services, they don't even have electronic forms set up for patients' convenience! So, get lots of time, money, and patience, if you decide to come here.

Had an attack of epididymitis (inflammation of the tubes behind testicles where sperm accumulates)…read morein August 2022. I went to see Dr Xiaolong Shawn Liu, M.D. for a second opinion, and to get insight into restarting exercise and using Traditional Chinese Medicine. The initial urologist I had seen told me to stop all exercise, but when I asked about how/when to restart exercises said that was out of their scope of practice. Meanwhile the chronic pain and discomfort were affecting my sleep, mood and daily life. The scientific literature says that the prognosis in chronic patients is unclear and that the average patient chronic epididymitis sees 4.5 different urologists while seeking a cure. Dr Liu reviewed my case file, ultrasound report, did a manual exam, and answered my questions. He was honest that two months of chronic inflammation was not at all unusual. Gave me advice about restarting physical activity (pace yourself, start very slowly and not at same intensity that you were before being sick, continue to wear compression shorts). In the meantime I had set up an appointment with a Chinese acupuncturist, (Wendy Li @ Acupuncture Herbs and Beyond) and after single visit had an impressive relief of pain for the first time in three months after getting acupuncture and taking the Chinese herbs prescribed for me. A concern when doing alternative medicine is that you could be ignoring real pathology. Dr.Liu explained that while it could not be explained by western medicine, TCM was successful for some people, the Chinese are very pragmatic people, have been doing TCM for thousands of years, and if it didn't work they would be doing something else. He said that there was no serious pathology that would preclude me from continuing with TCM treatment, and that if this didn't resolve in a years time, to come back to discuss potential surgery such as nerve blocks. So Dr. Liu knows his stuff and I was able to get an appointment within two weeks. (As for my case I continued with weekly visits for TCM for the next month and the pain and swelling subsided nicely over next three weeks.)
