Dr. Schuster certainly exceeded what I expected. She listened, looked at me while I shared my concerns, provided handouts to help educate me on nutrition, was respectful and kind when I talked about goals I wanted help on and made me feel like I was really heard. She treated my teenage daughter the same way.
Great, professional thorough exam. A-1. Was seeking new provider and found it. Thanks!
Gary Black is excellent! Very very talented in myofascial release. Issues that I’d had for a long time we’re so relieved after his treatment today. I’m so grateful to him, my body feels so relaxed and wonderful!
They care more about you than your own family. They take care of the whole person. “The memory of a good deed can never be taken from the heart of one who is grateful.”
So pleased with our experience here. We’ve brought 3 out 4 of our children and couldn’t have been more happy with the “alternative” solutions to our issues.
I love Heart if Wellness because it is warm and inviting, nestled in the corner with nature all around. It is peaceful and the staff are outstanding. My acupuncture appointments are a blessing. I highly recommended!!
Very impressed! David Lerner LAc, EAMP Acupuncture, Herbal Medicine, & Nutritional Counseling of Heart of Wellness has painlessly stuck many needles in me with much relief, along with electricity and cupping I feel as though my chronic pain level has been reduced.
Been a great experience going here for treatment!!! Positive results, treated my whole body not just the initial problem that got me in there… David has been amazing!!!
I had an appointment today with David Lerner, and for the first time, I left a medical practitioner’s office feeling hopeful and excited. David is hugely knowledgeable, thorough and professional.
