Patients praise

- Acknowledgement of skills in specific areas like acupuncture
Common complaints
- Concerns regarding high costs and billing practices
- Frustration with the effectiveness of treatment plans and perceived lack of understanding of the patient's issues
- Difficulties in scheduling appointments
- Concerns over recommendations for expensive tests and medications not covered by insurance
"Dr. Katie is a nice person but I never sensed she understood the extent of my problem. Ordered numerous very expensive tests I had to do on my own and prescribed expensive medications not covered by insurance with no results, yet she kept doing the same thing. It took a lot of time and money to not feel any better."
— Healthgrades/Healthline review"Although Katherine is a lovely person and a reasonable good acupuncturist, her billing methods are very questionable and down right a rip-off. Don’t go see her if you are not rich, even with insurance and don’t listen to what she tells you about the fee! They pad it on like nobody’s business."
