I had a lot of pain on my left side I could hardly walk, I was sent to pain management and that didn't do anything for me they gave me injections on my sides and that didn't work for me nothing would help me. I was getting so depressed just.too think that I wouldn't be able to walk. I would always see Weissler acupuncture and a lot of cars, so I said that's a good sign if there's a lot of cars. Oh my goodness I thank God that I went to miss Patty.
I felt so much relief the very first time that she did they acupuncture on me. I had it three more times and I think that's all I need thank you Jesus! I wish I would have gone to her first I would not have gone through the pain that I went through. I highly recommend her to anybody that is going through pain. She is amazing! I have my smile back

As an acupuncturist myself I have a lot of expectations when it comes to practitioners lol. Patti more than met them! She is one of the most knowledgeable practitioners I have ever had. Her ability to hold so much information in her head is truly impressive. Not only that but it's extremely helpful when you are trying to figure out what's going on with your body. She has helped me tremendously with everything I've come in for - from back aches to stomachaches, or insomnia to headaches. Patti can help!

I have known Patti for years. First as an RN and coworker, then as my acupuncturist. My first treatment was a full body but focusing on my sinuses. I was having dreadful sinus headaches at the time but Patti fixed that. I currently go to her for back and legs issues. For those of you leery of needles I just want to say that Patti has put needles in my feet, which are ultra sensitive and I didn't even feel them.
She is amazing. Calm and sincere in her vocation to give people a positive alternative to Western medicine and it's reliance on drugs and surgery. I highly recommend her both as a fellow nurse and one of her clients. Cynthia Cowan
