I went to Acupunture at the Pettygrove clinic and had a life changing experience. The interns and doctors worked seemlessly together to help me restore my body and get me back on my path. The interns I worked with were so committed and caring about figuring out my health concerns. Little did I know that Acupunture and Chinese herbs could get me back on me feet and help me to rediscover my life path. I would definitely recommend them!
Pros: Fantastic results from compassionate Staff.
Cons: None

I am a firm believer in Chinese Medicine. It has had a tremendous impact in improving some of my health issues. Unfortunately, the Chinese Medicine Clinic that helped me so much is in a different state so I began to search for one in the Portland area. I tried the Pettygrove Classical Chinese Clinic in the Northwest after seeing and ad, and checking out their website. Big mistake!!! My experience there was awful. Both the doctor and intern there showed absolutely no compassion, and acted as if I didn't know what I was talking about when I was describing my symptoms. The doctor especially had a very condescending attitude towards me when discussing my health concerns. I should have left right then and there, but when you are deperate for regaining your health sometimes you just ignore your inner voice. So I received my acupunture treatment and in the middle of what should be a quiet relaxing time some interns outside my door started talking loudly and laughing. After my treatment I was hurried out the door with no discussion about how I was feeling or future treatments. I soon found out that my treatment was holding up the front desk from closing down the cash drawers,and I they made me feel as if I had been inconveniencing the rest of the staff. I am so sad to say that I left there feeling terrible. Like I was more of a burden than a patient. I just have to say that anyone who has been going through health issues already tends to feel like a burden on family and friends. For me to reach out and talk about my ailments is very difficult and emotional, and when you are treated in the manner that I was it can make a person feel quiet worthless. I have never in my life typed up a review, but I feel that what I experience had to be told. I just have to say once more that Chinese Medicine is absolutey amazing if you can find a doctor who is caring, compassionate, and a good listener.
Pros: None
Cons: Everything about the experience.
