Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Although I am still undergoing treatment, I can say with confidence that Dr. Choy was the right call for us to make. My first meeting with Dr. Choy made me feel reassured that she understood my concerns and was looking at all the relevant aspects of my health and history to find the root cause of my pain. In addition to reassurance, I'm amazed at the efficiency of acupuncture in treating muscle aches/spasms that I've had, mostly in my legs. My experience with acupuncture has been especially promising compared to other treatments and medications that I have previously used. Acupuncture has also been beneficial in treating my low appetite, anxiety, and other underlying conditions. Out of every doctor i’ve met, Dr. Choy has provided me with the most clarity about my concerns and what to expect of it. It is a pleasure to work with Dr. Choy, and I expect to see more progress in the near future thanks to her compassion and wisdom.

Excelent Doctor
Dr Choy is extremely knowledgeable and caring. I have been her patient for close to twenty years. Her assistant, Erica, is also caring and a pleasure to deal with.

Experience
First visit. We found her to be amazingly knowledgeable. Have not met many doctors who spend time listening and understanding. She does not watch the clock but just pays attention to address the problem

There’s a lot of good things to say about Dr. Choy’s approach and effectiveness in treating my horrible acute and pervasive insomnia, Nausea and anxiety. She asked a lot of relevant questions about my history and lifestyle, she cared to know me before doing anything. Then, she confidently applied acupuncture to the areas that needed it for healing. She also applied acupressure to promote carryover at home so I can get relief. We worked on breathing and relaxation exercises. After 1 session of acupressure, my nausea was completely gone. After 2 Sessions of acupuncture, my insomnia, anxiety and anxiety attacks in the middle of the night were completely gone after 9 months of suffering. I haven’t taken ANY sleeping aids since I’ve been to Dr. Choy. None of my conventional doctors knew how to help me except with ineffective pills. Now, my quality of life has tremendously improved and I’m not even on any meds! Thank you Dr. Choy!

Dr. Choy took the time to identify the meds that were causing my father to retain fluids. She also recommended acupuncture to help and I could not be more grateful for her guidance and knowledge.

Amazing! I am always amazed at how Dr. Choy manages to rid me of pain. I was suffering and walking with two canes. A combination of homeopathy and acupuncture reduced my pain to 50% on the first visit. She listens and gets results. Thank you Dr. Choy

Dr Choy is amazing. I have chronic migraine, about 15-20 migraines a month. After seeing Dr Choy two weeks ago, I have not had one migraine! By pairing homeopathics with Accupuncture, she has put a stop the migraines. Her office staff is wonderful as well as Dr Choy's caring personality. Highly recommend!
