I was skeptical of acupuncture and had only tried it for one other condition (pulled hamstring) many years ago with a doctor in CA. Since I had a good experience back then, I decided to try it again now for some chronic back pain.
My orthopedic doctor recommended Dr. Erkang Hu, and I've had a great experience during and after my appointments.
Dr. Hu is an expert at administering the needles in a way that doesn't hurt or freak me out (I'm squeamish about needles). On the rare occasion that a needle does pinch, she fixes it immediately. My pain has improved after only a handful of visits. I highly recommend Dr. Hu.
