Dr. Bartlett Opened My Eyes to Eastern Medicine and its Incredible Results

I have had the privilege of Dr. Bartlett's friendship since 1997 when she moved to San Diego to attend the PCOM. Since that time I have watched her study, absorb, and truly live all things holistic. Medical expertise seems to come easily to Dr. Bartlett -- even early in her career, she quickly and successfully treated every ailment I brought to her with holistic remedies... without exception. Dr. Bartlett opened my eyes to Eastern medicine and the incredible results I could achieve with holistic treatment. Dr. Bartlett now has a wide range of experiences as a health care provider, and many years of study and research to guide her.

Passion and Skill

I've known Dr. Bartlett for 29 years, have lived with her on both U.S. coasts, and have followed her through various career and life stages.

Back Pain Subsides

This patient came to see me after he fell and sprained his lower back during a visit to Asheville from Michigan. He was concerned about sitting in the car for the 2 day drive back. I gave him 2 acupuncture treatments before he left. Hi Dr. Bartlett, We made it home yesterday afternoon. We drove approx. 8 hours on Sunday and 5 hours on Monday. And, considering how I felt last week before I saw you, it really went quite well. I think the combination of acupuncture treatments, plus the heated seats in my car, really improved my back. Thanks very much for your help...I'm not sure I could have made it home without the treatments. This patient also suffered burning pain in his stomach for 2…

Needed in the Medical Profession

Dear Kath, I have a spiritual background and my intuition is that you have an excellent orientation as a health practitioner. Your priority of wanting to do whatever you can to help in people's healing and take out extra time to do so, is uncommon, in my experience. In other words, you are a selfless person, looking to assist others first. This is exactly the disposition that is needed in the medical profession and one that supports healing in general.
