How our office works:
We are a practice, owned by Emily Hooker DAOM, L Ac, of five acupuncturists and one virtual clinic manager! This means that we do not have a receptionist on site. When you call the office, the call will go straight to voicemail. But don’t fret! Urgent messages will be responded to within an hour while all non-urgent messages will receive a response within one to two business days. You can always send a text message to our number as well and someone will respond within an hour, typically.
Don’t want to wait to get your appointment booked? No problem! You can use our online booking site to reserve your appointment for yourself.
Please note: If you are a Kaiser patient with a current authorization number from the outside referrals department, then the cost listed on the website will not apply to you. Kaiser will cover the cost, minus your copay. Copays are paid at every visit and are due at the time of service.
If you are interested in seeing if you can use your insurance at our location, then please fill out the insurance eligibility form that you will find here.
Finally, if you would like to pay cash, we offer a time of service discount that reduces our treatment fee to $80.
