New Patient Information

When you visit the AC Clinic, we will treat you according to your overall health. This requires a comprehensive health intake form, which you can fill out ahead of time to expedite your treatment.

Your first Visit

At the time of your first visit, you will be asked to complete a health history form and a consent to treatment form. Each visit should take about 45 mins and please block the time accordingly.

At the Start of Your Visit

When you meet with the doctor you may be asked additional questions to allow him/her to determine the best treatment plan for you.  This would be the best time to inform the doctor of any questions you may have or of any additional ailments.

 
At the AC Clinic, we customize treatments, including combined acupuncture and chiropractics, to the needs of the patient, whether that patient is already fit or comes to us with a sports injury or pre-existing condition, such as arthritis.

What to Expect

During treatment, you will be asked to lie on a massage table and positioned in the best manner for the acupuncture points specific to your condition to be reached. Common positions are face down, on your back or side. If you are uncomfortable please inform the doctor, we would like to make you as comfortable as possible.  

A first visit will last at least an hour; follow-up visits are closer to forty-five minutes, depending on the patient's individual treatment plan.

In most cases, you should leave the AC Clinic feeling both rejuvenated and relaxed!

Our Patients Say

Reviews
"Substantially less pain after my first session."

Acupuncture is the only thing that helps with my pinched nerves in my back. Dr. Emily was amazing, actually listened and had me walking out the door with substantially less pain after the first session.

"Don't wait as long as I did to go."

Diagnosed by many doctors with RA. Didn't want to take the RA medicines which were highly recommended by them all. Had many of the symptoms. Also told I had thyroid problems. My last resort was Jim Guo.

I had seen Jim many years ago for migraine headaches which he cured. When I went back out of desperation, I was swollen to the max and in severe pain. Jim took one look at me and told me he could help. I was very hopeful but not overly optimistic about my future. Although he told me it would take time, he was very positive.

After just a few visits, I began to see an improvement in my health. I'm happy to say I feel better although I have a way to go yet, I am steadily improving. I highly recommend Jim and his staff. But don't wait as long as I did to see him. I wish I had done this years ago! A rating of a million stars wouldn't be enough for Jim!

— T.B.

"I became a believer in acupuncture!"

I was hesitant at first but I became a firm believer in acupuncture after only a couple of visits! I saw countless doctors and specialists and never got any answers or help until finally going to Dr. Guo. He really is amazing and they are so good about fitting you in with times that work around your schedule. I would recommend him for any issue you may have or to simply feel energized and healthy!

"Accelerated the wellness process."

I went to Jim Guo for his acupuncture treatment for an automobile accident resulting in a concussion related injury. He was amazing, kind and thorough and offered many suggestions about natural life style techniques to help me. Each of my visits over the few months were well spent. I truly believe he accelerated the wellness process. Jim came highly recommended to me and I will pass on the recommendation.

— N.W.

"Extremely professional."

I went to see Jim Guo when I was suffering from intense back pain and through multiple acupuncture treatments I was able to return to my sports team and compete 6 weeks later. I do not think that would have been possible without Jim's skill and expertise. He is extremely professional, careful, and efficient in his work.

"Miracle Worker!"

Dr. Jim has literally put me back together more times than I can count. He is a miracle worker! He is very intuitive and can get to the bottom of almost any ailment. From Torn ligaments to broken bones to detection and treatment of potentially life threatening conditions, I can personally attest that he is second to none and a master of his craft.
