I've been going to uptown acupuncture for a while now. I really love seeing Kirk and his smiling face every time I go in. The conversations are always interesting and the advice is always amazing.

I've been seeing Kirk for general wellness as well as acute injuries.    He specializes in sports injuries and structural integration. It's great  for someone like me (an athlete and former military)  to have somebody who practices with Chinese herbs and holistic medicine as well as sports therapy and all types of massage.  It's really valuable to me and I think it's going to be really valuable to a lot of orthopedics who are looking to refer patients to someone like Kirk. He is a great option for those people in need for physical therapy, Chinese herbs and acupuncture, Kirk has a well rounded approach to making people well.

The office is amazing as well, it's small and quaint. What he has done with the lighting, the bamboo on the ceiling and the overall ambiance  creates a very peaceful place to heal right in the middle of uptown Hillcrest.
