I have consulted Dr. Nishek when she worked at Protea in November of 2010. Just this month (August 2011) I went back to be a patient of Dr. McCarthy who has done a couple of acupuncture treatments on me a year prior. Dr. McCarthy is very informative, very friendly, and super compassionate. When I walk out the door, I always feel that my whole person has been cared for. I love the setting in the lobby. It feels very calm, fresh, and makes me feel at home. In the midst of my busy life, I can sit back and breathe and focus on my health and well being in that space. Staff at Protea are very helpful and easy to talk to about any questions that you might have. To me, Protea is a safe haven for my health care needs.
