I'm almost 50... I don't want to just be "healthy" and I don't want to "settle" for average health. I want to be fully optimized in order to show up in a peak state for my family, my work, myself activities and mostly myself. So I take the time and the diligence to research and review potential enhancements and solutions that accommodate and complement my goals. I take them to Clement Lee and we create a protocol that's custom for my needs, wants and wishes. In the process he clears up the confusion and provides expert Insight into proper dosing and use (or even avoidance) of the options I'm wanting to consider. He's been a very accurate and highly effective resource for my success. I highly recommend.

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.

    I have heard of Erewhon for a while now, but never had a chance to check them out until recently…read more They are known for their highly recommended organic products. This location is at The Shops on Lake Ave in Pasadena. Parking garage is conveniently nearby just next door. Staff was so friendly and nice especially the gentleman standing at the front greeting everyone who walked into the store. Thank you Sir! Outside patio area available for chilling and dining. Great inside space was bright and clean. Aisles were perfectly stocked and organized. Deli had so many freshly prepared hot and cold foods. I don't think I've ever seen so much pre-packaged foods. Food galore at first sight. My eyes widened by the section. It was like being in a food amusement park. It was really fun to peruse the aisles. So very cool! I couldn't choose with so many options in front of my eyes, but I did end up buying half a pound of Nolan Beet Salad, one container of chicken breast lemon herb, and one container of tumeric rice. One tiny gripe, the prices were outrageously high on certain food items... $20+ per lb. Sometimes you have to bite the bullet and indulge a little on healthy clean foods. I was okay in spending over $26 on my small lunch meal. It probably won't be a regular thing though. Beet salad was delicious and light. Beets were very sweet... I'm getting one pound next time. Chicken was a bit dry... probably won't get again. Tumeric rice was pleasantly soft and tasty... worth getting again. My future visits would have to be longer so I can immersed myself in all of its organic-ness. I want to try their pre-packaged salmon plate, sushi, and of course, more sweet beets. I'm sure there are other foods I can indulge in. Yes, I'll be back despite of its pricey cost.

    There's a nice variety of food here. I do like the broths and hot food items. I also come here to…read moreshop for health supplements and the girls working that section are very helpful and always making sure you are helped. However, the rest of the workers seem to have tunnel vision. I mentioned this to the cashier after he ask how I was doing and he said that it's common for the workers at that location to have lack of special vision. What the heck??!! Be prepared to bump into people there and have workers always in the way of your shopping.

My server was very attentive and came by to check on me often, even when the restaurant started to get a little busy. My dish was the pad thai with chicken, that came with soup, salad, egg roll. The noodles were delicious, and the egg roll was fresh. The soup was surprisingly filling so I ended up taking most of the lunch home. The prices were very reasonable and I think my food (including Thai Iced Tea) with tip was under $25, which is pretty much a steal. Plus, I love the ambiance (or is it aesthetic as the young ones call it?). It's a very calming place. Highly recommend!

    Absolutely one of the best Thai spots in Pasadena!…read more I've tried a bunch of Thai places around here, but Janejira Thai Bistro on has become my go-to. It's a cozy, family-run spot right across from Target, and everything we ordered was packed with fresh, bold flavors that actually taste authentic. The portions are seriously generous--I always end up with leftovers for lunch the next day and it's usually even better the next day! The staff is super friendly and attentive, the vibe is casual and welcoming, and the prices are very reasonable, especially compared to some other spots in Pasadena. If you're in the Playhouse District or just craving real Thai food done right, do yourself a favor and stop in. We'll definitely be back soon--it's in our regular rotation of favorite restaurants in Pasadena. Highly recommend. My one and only complaint... they used to offer a dessert called a Croffle. A pastry cross between a croissant and waffle, with bananas, chocolate and whipped cream. It was seriously delicious and I wish they'd bring it back!

I went in with pretty severe tooth pain and…read morewas honestly pretty nervous, but everything was handled quickly, professionally, and with a lot of care. The procedure was smooth and much faster than I expected--done in under an hour--and Dr. Safa made sure I was comfortable the entire time. He explained everything clearly, which really helped ease my nerves. What really stood out was his attention to detail. He even caught an issue with an older root canal from years ago that I had no idea about, which could have turned into a bigger problem down the road. Overall, I'm very grateful for the care I received. If you're dealing with dental pain or need specialized treatment, I highly recommend Dr. Safa.

My dentist recommended going to get consultation at Pasadena Endodontix. I read some negative reviews on Yelp and Google but my experience with Dr. Safa was nothing but professionalism and expert care and treatment. I would give more stars if Yelp allowed it. I only felt a tiny bit of discomfort at the initial injection but after that, no pain since. I've had other root canals at other dentist offices a long time ago and they took over an hour to finish and it was painful. I would recommend my family and friends to see Dr. Safa if they need an Endodontist. I hope I don't need another root canal, but if I do, I'm happy to come back here. Is it a bit pricey? Yes, but in my humble opinion, you're paying for expertise and quality care. My tooth is pain free, my blister is gone, and I can't believe I tolerated the discomfort and occasional pain related to the condition of my tooth for as long as I did before Dr. Safa treated it. The office staff and assistants are also top notch and professional. Thank you Pasadena Endodontix!
