Best traditional medisine doctor in the area

I have been having autoimmune problem for years and my family doctor finally told me the only way western medisen can do is stereroid. I have been coming to Dr. Hou everyweek for 3 months now, and to my relieve, my symptom has been much improved!

My internist applauded my partnering with Dr. Hou. She is extraordinary!

Dr. Hou listens patiently and is incredibly caring. I have seen her over the past 10 years on and off as needed. I first came to her at the urging of my sister when my doctor told me I had indication of an auto-immune disorder, but traditional medicine is to treat with steroids and I was not at that point, After initial treatments with herbs and acupuncture, my ANA indicator went from positive to negative and has remained negative since. When I visit Dr. Hou, she remembers my history and takes time with me. I still have annual internist visits, but I consider regular visits to Dr. Hou a critical part of my overall health plan. I have brought my children here over the years. She treated my daughter immediately when she was diagnosed with mononucleosis and she had a great recovery with no additional treatment other than the Chinese herbs. While western medicine can address acute issues, Dr. Hou's approach is for long term system balance.

A relaxing and stress free experience

It has been a wonderful journey considering the circumstances. After not having much luck with my illness elsewhere, the acupuncture and herbal medicine provided here has been nothing short of amazing.

First experience-awesome!

Dr. Hou explained carefully her approach and goals. I think all doctors should include mention to their patients of the benefits of alternative medicine and when to seek it out.

Amazing!!

I Have been a patient of Dr. Hou's for about 4 years now. I came here for numerous issues. I had hyperactive thyroid and hormone imbalances. Within a few months Dr. Hou was able to regain normal function of my thyroid using natural Chinese herbs. I also struggled with infertility and am now 4 months pregnant. She always listens and spends as much time as you need. Her knowledge of the human body and its functions are outstanding. Thank you Dr. Hou for all that you have done.
