Patient Testimonials: Hear What Others Say

  • Chelsy Hortington

    “I struggled with bladder control ever since giving birth to my little Tanya. My doctor said surgery was my only option, which left me frustrated—until a friend referred me to Neil. After just two sessions, the difference was amazing. Now, no more leaks when I cough or feel stressed. Definitely would recommend!“

  • Norton Sung

    “Neil was amazing! I didn’t know much about acupuncture, but he was so patient, listening to my symptoms and explaining everything step by step. I went to him for cramps, and after just three treatments, they were completely gone. Neil’s expertise and care made all the difference! I highly recommend him—10/10!”

  • Jagmeet Garpreet

    "I’ve struggled with severe Raynaud’s for years—holding a cold drink would turn my fingers white with pain. But after taking some food recommendations from Neil, something incredible happened. I kept my hands in the freezer for 10 minutes, and for the first time, no white fingers, no pain. Neil, you might be a magician!"

  • Manmepreet Kazmi

    “Neil really helped me with my urine problem. Truck driving is tough—you sit for hours, and bathroom breaks became an issue. I noticed I couldn’t hold my pee as long as before. I found Neil online, and he’s the best acupuncturist I’ve seen. I never knew acupuncture could help, but just one session changed my perspective.“

  • Howard P.

    “Neil truly saved me! After injuring my knees during a soccer game, I went to the emergency room but faced an 8-hour wait as the pain worsened. A fellow patient gave me Neil’s contact, and my mom took me to him immediately. With just one needle, my knee pain reduced by 90%! Acupuncture is absolutely incredible—like magic!”

  • Mason B.

    “After a bad accident last week, I had sharp, electric pain shooting from my lower back to my legs and toes and couldn’t get out of bed for two days. A friend recommended Neil, and after just two treatments, the pain was completely gone. Now I can move freely again. Neil’s acupuncture truly works—I highly recommend him!”

  • Max T.

    "Neil, thank you for your incredible care and knowledge! Your acupuncture relieved my lower back pain unbelievably, and I’m amazed by the results. I’m hoping you can help with my persistent neck pain too. When I told my mom, she was so impressed she’s eager for your help with her middle finger pain. Your expertise is life-changing!"

  • Spencer Pun

    It's just unbelievable. I’m in tears of gratitude for meeting Neil. After just three treatments, my urine issues are completely gone, and I’m back to work with no problems. I used to feel so ashamed wearing adult diapers in my late 40s, but now I’m free from that. Thank you, Neil—your care truly changed my life!
