Calvin Blount is a family practice doc who has an acupuncturist that works out of his clinic.  Sorry, don't know her name.

When Smoothie had her acupuncture treatments, we asked the vet doc if she could do them for us :D Of course she couldn't, however she did recommend a couple of people. We have not used either of them but thought we would share the info with you.

[b]Good Luck Susan...let us know who you chose[/b]

I know Frank and his group moved on from the Tortoise Clinic to "The Farm" in N.C....but is that where Dr. Wu is?  Did he buy the Tortoise Clinic?

Frank helped me with the Chinese Teas and Acupuncture when I could not walk due to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.   I'm sure they're all happy at The Farm!!

Good Luck Susan...let us know who you chose

Update:  We're just back from first appointment with Dr. Bellard (TCM), working in Dr. Calhoun's office.  Great place, friendly staff, and Hub looks like he feels SO much better.  Still walking funny, still staying in bed, but definitely on the mend.
 
Great service, very reasonable price.  I think I"m gonna go in soon for a tuneup myself!
 
Itzkatz--I don't know the details of Tortoise Clinic.  We used to go to Frank too, and about the time Dr. Wu arrived was when I guess we were all feeling so healthy we sort of trailed off and stopped going.  
 
My most amazing story from Frank wasn't about the nasty tea smelling up the whole house, or the woozy feeling after acupuncture, but about an amazing migraine cure.  Way back years ago, my son had a screaming migraine, on a Saturday afternoon, of course the clinic was already closed and wouldn't be open till Tuesday.  Carol got Frank on his cell and had him call me -- he said have him sniff up 1/8 tsp fresh carrot juice up the nostril on the opposite side of where the pain is.  If it's on boths sides, sniff both sides.  I didn't have juice but I had carrots, so I grated one and squeezed it through a napkin.  Had the boy snort the juice and I am not joking, within seconds he was totally relieved of the pain.  
 
That has happened one or two other times, and the carrot juice trick worked then too.  I wish I'd known this trick when I had my one and only migraine many many years ago...

Susan thank you for that info about the carrot juice.  I get migraines every now and then.  I know what you mean about feeling healthy when Frank left....I just never went back.  My family hated me "stinking" up the house with those teas....but they worked.  

Funny thing is that when we moved to Mexico and had to cross the border in 1997 I had a 6 month supply in those plastic bags and a letter from some official explaining in Spanish (with seal) that they were medicine and legal.  Some of the teas looked like cocaine!! :yikes:  What an adventure traveling 7 days across Mexico with at least 3 stops a day checking us.  :clap:

Hope all goes well for your husband.  Keep us informed.

Hub continues to improve, and now the hard part is making him stay in bed and be still.  Being still is not what he's good at!
 
Thanks for all the kind words and support.

I've been going to Michele Jorge for several sessions, for various issues, and she is the best acupuncturist I've ever been to.  The atmosphere of her clinic is beautiful, serene, smkells good, feels very relaxing and pampering, and her experience/knowledge has been a great match for what I need at this time.  She's been very helpful also in suggesting self-care things to do at home in between acu sessions; and is now offering beginner yoga classes at her clinic 2 nights a week. 
 
Since it's that time of year, and I feel for anyone who has allergies like I do -- I will share that one of the issues I'm having is really awful hay fever, which Michele treated Saturday.  AMAZING results, 2 whole days and nights now with no need for any allergy pills!  Which means I wake up feeling bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, instead of feeling like I still NEED a good night's sleep.

I'm trying to track down Michele Jorge (based on all the recommendations here) and not having any luck.
The space on 393 is no longer there and the phone # has an undiscernable voice mail.  

Does anyone know if Michele is still practicing in this area?
