Dr. Chow is Amazing

by Luna1 at Citysearch

I met Dr Chow during a period of transition in my life, I was anxious as well as suffering from so many ailments that stemmed from bad digestion. Dr. Chow spent so much time with me, talking with me about what was going on, and with her amazing, friendly, compassionate, attentive and sincere demeaner, she did what so many pracitioners had not, and that is get to the root of the problem. Dr. Chow, liteally saved my life.Through acupuncture and counseling she gave me incredible strength and courage to face the difficult tasks in my life. Through herbs, vitamins and so many other approaches she has, she was able to get to the root of exactly what was going on and for the first time in my life, I can finally say that ALL of my ailments are resolved. So I say, if you truly want to get healed, if you want a true guide and a true doctor who is absolutely 100% there for you in every way, dont walk, RUN to Dr. Chow. She is truly, truly amazing.

Dr. Chow made a world of difference in my life!!!

by Redruby at Citysearch

I have been under Dr. Chow's treatment for a moderate case of Crohn's Disease for almost two years now. The changes she helped me make to my diet and the natural regimen she has me on has changed my life. I am able to tolerate and mange my condition in ways I never dreamed possible. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Chow and trying out her suggestions. I was skeptical at first because it meant a major diet change for me but after three days of trying the new plan I was convinced! My abdominal pain was reduced by 60% in three days. I am not in remission but I can mange and live now with my Crohn's. I am so grateful to have found Dr. Chow. Do yourself and your body a favor and make an appointment today.

I am very impressed with Dr. Chow's expertise.

by chaachagoon at Citysearch

One of my classmates was diagnosed with H1N1 Swine Flu, but found out about it only after infecting me and possibly others in our class. At first, it felt like I had come down with the flu again as in years past. However, the symptoms were by far the worst I have ever endured. I was sweating non-stop, and barely able to care for myself for more than three days.

The herbs Dr. Chow had given me immediately stopped the feeling of malaise and continual sweating.

I am very impressed with her expertise, and highly recommend Dr. Chow!

Knowledgeable care and excellent treatment

by twoAs at Citysearch

Dr. Chow has helped with many of my problems due to seasonal allergies. As someone who constantly gets sinus infections and terrible fatigue from allergies, she has given me a lot of compassionate support and effective treatment. She has an incredible amount of patience and is willing to answer any questions I have concerning my health. I never feel rushed and she always asks questions to make sure I understand the treatment. Her whole approach is about making sure you understand what is going on with your body.

I have made vast improvements with my symptoms relating to my allergies and can finally say that I have survived summer and early fall without a sinus infection. My overall health and energy has improved so much and I finally feel in control of my body, it's a great feeling.

I highly recommend Dr. Chow for anyone who is seeking to better understand what improvements they can make in their life to better their health.

Knowledgeable, Supportive Doctor!

by wildcatsNY at Citysearch

I first went to Dr. Chow to help ease my constant fatigue. Her recommendations have not only totally eliminated my issues with fatigue, but have also alleviated skin dryness issues as well. She is extremely knowledgeable, organized, easy to get in touch with, and very patient. In other words, Dr. Chow is a supportive doctor. I would highly recommend her to anyone who has had difficulties getting useful diagnoses or treatments in the past!

Dr. Gigi Chow

by healthybertha at Citysearch

My grand mother had a cough for 8 months straight non-stop. We tried all form of treatments and medications from many different medical doctors. None of them worked until we presented her case to Dr. Chow. She diagnosed her very quickly and provided a treatment plan. Within 3 days my grandmother's symptoms disappeared. And even now, my grandmother always ask me to thank Dr. Chow for her. This is what being a doctor is all about, going the extra mile to make someone's life better. thanks Dr. Chow, you are the best.

Knowledable & Compassionate Doctor

by sunlover1975 at Citysearch

I have seen many doctors (western and eastern) and Dr. Chow has been the best yet. Some western doctors treat your body like it's a bunch of parts that have nothing to do with each other, while some eastern doctors treat your body as a whole but only seem to know how to treat allergies and smoking cessation and doesn't really know how to handle more serious conditions. Some eastern doctors are also really out there in their treatments that don't seem to work (or well haven't worked for me.)

I like Dr. Chow because she acknowledges the benefits of western medicine (diagnostic tests) but then uses that information and treats you naturally. She takes as much time as needed to listen to you, takes detailed notes, is easy to reach by email with any question you may have, and really looks at the whole picture and what is going on.

Also unlike in comparison to other naturopathic doctors, she is affordable and goes the extra mile to get you back your health.

She's nice, has a great understanding of chinese herbs, acupuncture (and more) and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a solid naturopathic doctor.

• Pros: combines the best of western and eastern medicine
• Cons: doesn't take insurance (but is reasonable in cost)
