Update: 2026 Fee Structure
No one turned away for lack of funds. (At the same time, I’m taking steps to ensure I can keep helping people in the Bay Area for many years to come.)
The goal here is to adjust for inflation annually instead of raising my rate suddenly after years of charging the same amount.
Happy winter solstice, and an update
I am raising my rates in 2025. Read on to find out why.
2023 Updates
October 22: My old website was deleted recently, along with all my professional blog posts. I am in the process of retrieving and generating content. Thank you for your patience!
As of September I am now a Certified Provider of Hospice and Palliative Care Acupuncturist, and also listed on the Everywhere is Queer map. Please contact me to schedule an appointment. (Yes, I am accepting new patients again.)
PLEASE NOTE, I'M NO LONGER IN NETWORK WITH ANY HEALTH INSURANCE COMPANY. There are a few directories that refuse to update/delete provider listings, sorry about that. I've really tried.
2022 Updates
As of October 20, 2022 I have received the Pfizer bivalent COVID-19 booster vaccine (in addition to 3 Pfizer shots on March 1 & 23, 2021; January 10, 2022). I am still rapid-PCR testing weekly.
Starting September, office visits will be $120, and housecalls will be $30 per 15 minute commute (minimum $150).
Same-day appointments are subject to a $50 fee (e.g., office visit $170, housecalls minimum $200). This fee may be waived at my discretion (e.g., for labor support).
