I got to know about HLC from groupon deal, I visited their center 2/5 for acupuncture, this was my 2nd appointment. (Since i had already paid on group on deal, i had no option of not going)
After my return to home, i noticed that i have been bleeding whole time from my head. I was shocked! it was the exact point Dr. Shirin pinched the needle. Its a very long dripping line. I wish i could attach photo here.
I believed Dr. Shirin & her treatment and followed her instruction given on my 1st visit. She said -if you feel sensation then its good that means acupuncture is working, so i was quite this time and didn't move unlike my 1st visit. However all the time i was bleeding from my head because of pure negligence of provided service. And neither Dr. Shirin mentioned anything until i noticed it on my return to home.
I feel horrible now! Was i have been treated correct!! I hope those needles were at lest sterilized and won't harm me anywhere....I'm feeling ridiculously fooled and betrayed!
Now I'm trying to reach Dr. Shirin for last 24 hrs but she is not answering my call neither replying to my emails….$#$^&%$## …Can we trust...

Read moreDr. Shirin, a radiologist by training, has been treating my whole family for many years. I found her through Groupon. She has healed a rotator cuff problem that I struggled with for two decades, and I no longer wake up with stiff hands. (All I got from my orthopedist was an occasional cortisone shot in the rotator cuff area. Shirin treated me with acupuncture and showed me good exercises.) Shirin has worked with injuries, broken ankles, strained muscles, frozen shoulders - for three members of my family. And we are all the better for it. She also submits to health insurance!! I highly recommend her as a healer of a very high level of...
