I've been suffering from ulcerative colitis for three years now and as of today my condition is…read moreunder remission. However, that means being 28-years old and being told that my only option is to continue taking 8+ pills a day to keep the colitis under control. A personal friend recommended I meet with Doctor Cybularz; this was my first time using acupuncture and Chinese herbs as an alternative to western medicine. I must admit at first I felt skeptical; fortunately Dr. Cybularz was very empathetic and patient with me. He took the time to make sure I understood not only the treatments available but also my condition. Something else that made me feel very comfortable was his suggestion to continue to work with my gastroenterologist and discuss my desire to decrease the amount of medication I take. Currently, I am down to taking 4 pills and I meet with Dr. Cybularz once a week for an acupuncture treatment and herb follow up. I've noticed an increase in my energy levels and decrease in gastrointestinal discomfort. I couldn't be more glad about having made a consultation!

What was done on the right side was never matched in the left. Problem areas that were obvious were ignored and attention given to areas that needed none.

If Hippocrates actually said "do no harm", Dr. John Yee has developed his own modified version of…read morethe oath. His pledge is to "do great good for those who need you most". Two years ago I spent much of my time moving through life in a wheelchair because of a serious foot injury. I was facing seemingly impossible odds when I met Dr. John Yee. While other physicians had given up on my case, Dr. Yee engaged his unending creative problem-solving skills suggesting unique treatments that resolved my problem and resulted in a much-improved lifestyle. As I began to improve, Dr. Yee suggested that an exercise program would be essential to my regaining strength and balance. He found a gym whose talented owner agreed to work with several of his patients recovering from serious medical issues. Under his direction, five of us we're pushed and challenged and we improved --- and then Covid-19 hit and the gym had to close. Dr. Yee then stepped in and offered to personally teach us martial arts strategies and techniques to continue our recovery using a virtual platform. Dr. Yee now coaches us in strength training, balance strategies and relaxation techniques and we continue to grow physically and mentally. His gentle concern has strengthened our minds, bodies and souls. Because of his concern, I am today a seventy-one-year-old woman, who had never been athletic, exercising 7 days a week, learning taekwondo and feeling stronger than ever. I am proud of myself for never giving up. I know that I owe this new life and confidence to my brilliant, challenging physician / life coach, Dr. John Yee. I will always be grateful to him for making the latter part of my life the best part!
