Marlene D. : Impressed with my progress

My name is Marlene. I am 80 years old. Recently, while getting out of my car, I fell onto the pavement. I landed on my right side. xrays showed no broken bones but the pain was severe in my leg, hip and knee. After two weeks of pain medication and no improvement, I decided to try acupuncture. My physician recommended Dr. Hawkes. I liked her immediately. She explains the course of treatment she recommends. She has not only helped me with lessening the pain from my injury but also with a couple of other health issues I had spoken with her about. She is very knowledgeable, she listens attentively to one’s concerns. She is never in a rush. Recently I went to an orthopedic doctor to inquire about physical therapy for my leg following acupuncture. I told him about receiving acupuncture from Dr. Hawkes and he was impressed with the progress I have made and advised me to continue receiving treatments from her. I am very happy to have been referred to Dr. Hawkes. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an acupuncturist. I am sure they would not be disappointed in her. I was not.
