Dr. Song is a best-in-class professional acupuncture practitioner and physician. I cannot say enough good things about her true dedication to her patients, her effective methods and her astounding results.

When a local hospital mistakenly gave me a triple dose of oxycodone after a total knee replacement surgery that caused me to hallucinate and convulse, and poisoned my body so it would not tolerate any type of opiate painkillers, I was at a loss as to how to manage my knee pain post-surgery. My physicians suggested Tylenol, but it was ineffective in alleviating my intense pain. I was exceptionally slow to make any progress in Physical Therapy, because of the excruciating pain that I was suffering. I could not function normally during the day; and during the night, I could not sleep. I was miserable.

I decided to turn to acupuncture for knee pain relief. Dr. Song was very attentive, compassionate and knowledgeable about how to treat my condition. Her amazing professional expertise that integrates her extensive background in both Eastern/Western medicine and acupuncture, was the catalyst to my relief. Dr. Song was able to permanently stop my knee pain in only 3 visits. Managing my pain allowed me to manage my stress, and to leap forward with my Physical Therapy goals. I attribute my relief and healing progress to Dr. Song. She is an A++.

I would recommend Dr. Song very strongly and without hesitation as an exceptional healer and physician. She is totally ethical, talented, sensitive, professional, brilliant and caring. She can supplement Western medical techniques with acupuncture for optimal results.

Thank you, Dr. Song, for giving my pain-free life back to me!

I first called Dr. Song in the winter of 2001 after being diagnosed with an acute case of nasal polyps which caused me to lose my sense of smell and reduced my taste to sweet, salty, sour, and bitter—my ability to enjoy the subtle flavors of different foods had completely disappeared and my loss of smell was so acute that I was unable to smell burnt toast, even if I was holding it right underneath my nose. My diagnosis was provided by a top Seattle doctor in asthma and allergy whose recommendation was that I begin a strong course of oral steroids to help reduce the swelling in my nasal passages—she warned me that full relief from my symptoms was virtually impossible because, she explained, most people diagnosed with such a severe case of polyps never fully recover their ability to smell and taste.

Seeking an alternative path of care, a friend suggested that I call the acupuncturist with whom she’d worked, Dr. Song. Dr. Song’s response to my diagnosis was the exact opposite of the doctor who provided my diagnosis. It became quickly apparent that Dr. Song’s approach to health and healing is holistic in nature—she reviewed many aspects of my lifestyle and general well-being, asking focused questions about my stress level, recent life changes, and other aspects of my overall health, rather than focusing only on my diagnosis, to capture a more complete picture of my health. My first appointment lasted almost one hour; by the end, Dr. Song reassured me that acupuncture could successfully treat my condition.

I have been working with Dr. Song for more than ten years now and I continue to seek her care and expertise to optimize my health and well-being. Acupuncture was successful in curing me of nasal polyps and my sense of smell and taste was fully restored within the first nine months of treatments. While my path to healing may have been a little slower than conventional western medicine’s approach, the results have endured—I have continued to smell and taste over the last nine, plus, years without the use of drugs. Indeed, looking back, I can now confidently say that oral steroids would have only provided temporary relief from my problem, not a long-term solution.

Dr. Song provides her patients with expert care, in a calm setting, that is holistic in its approach. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about her patients’ well-being and that she is dedicated to her profession and her patients in a way that is often hard to find in other doctors.

Dr. Song is not only my doctor, but she is also a trusted friend. I highly recommend Dr. Song as a care provider. Indeed, I have recommended her to countless friends for different reasons over the last ten years and they too, have come to understand why acupuncture is an excellent choice in one’s healthcare and why Dr. Song is an exceptional doctor.
