"I began to see Dr. Courtney in June 2008. I was feeling lethargic and exhausted. I thought I had chronic fatigue syndrome. I was also having pre-menopausal symptoms that were extremely uncomfortable. I wanted to find a doctor that would actually try to fix the problem rather than just give me drugs. Dr Courtney has helped me tremendously through treatment with acupuncture and herbal formulas. At every appointment she spends a good amount of time discussing specifics such as my current sleep patterns, digestion, hot flashes, pain, etc and then adjusts the treatment to fit my current state of health. I began feeling better within a couple of months. I am energetic and active again. I continue to see her occasionally to maintain my good health. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a natural approach to correcting problems that allows the body to heal itself."

"I was seeking the services of an Acupuncturist in hopes of finding relief for several long term ailments. Having never tried acupuncture and being a bit uncomfortable about needles I was somewhat apprehensive as my first appointment approached. Not to worry. I found Doctor Courtney to be a competent and compassionate medical professional. She went to great length to understand my needs before determining a treatment plan. Doctor Courtney combines her extraordinary skills and broad based knowledge with a nurturing personality to provide comfortable and effective treatments. An unexpected benefit of my visits is that I leave each session feeling incredibly relaxed and at peace."

"From the first time I met with Dr. Courtney I knew I was in good hands. During the initial interview she sat with me for over an hour getting my full history. She wanted to know what prescriptions I was taking, how they were working, and how I was eating, from types of food to amounts. She asked lots of questions and made notes in which she refers back to. I always feel she’s listening and cares about me and my health concerns

I have gone to several doctors to take care of my asthma, allergies, sleeping issues, acid reflux, and yeast problems. I had a full medicine cabinet filled with too many prescriptions to name. I took notes, made stickie notes all over the bottles so I could figure out, how to take them, when to take them, and what to take them with. This was not a path I enjoyed for my overall health and wellness.

Dr. Courtney listened to my many concerns about all of these medications and the fact that I was not feeling any better, she prescribed natural herbs and acupuncture. I am taking three different types of herbs and go in for acupuncture and feel incredible.

I feel so lucky to have someone like Dr. Courtney in my life. She has helped in so many ways and most importantly I feel fantastic. I sleep better and now realize how and why the yeast keeps coming back when conventional doctors could not explain its recurrence. I have always wanted to say “Thank you” and just never have until now."

“After trying a variety of acupuncturists, I feel that I finally got to someone that really knows and understands the human body. Albert’s appeal breaks the boundaries of profession, culture, and beliefs. He is a true healer, who uses his tremendous knowledge and experience to make his patients heal and feel better.”

“Albert's acupuncture treatments have helped relieve serious pain in my shoulders, reduce swelling and release excess heat in my body. I am not good with needles and Albert has been patient and understanding. He provides effective herbal formulas to supplement the treatments and is available for follow up questions between treatments. I highly recommend Albert and trust him to help me with my health issues."

"I have found amazing results through acupuncture and massage therapy with Albert Stern. I have suffered from migraines for years, and after a car accident in which I broke my back and multiple ribs, I was experiencing the pain almost daily. Albert Stern has helped me by using a combination of massage and acupuncture and I am now able to function much better with a lot less pain! Thank you Albert!"
~ T.S.

"I was at a point where activities of daily living were a struggle, at times left undone. At first meeting, I felt genuine concern from Albert and Courtney regarding my condition. A plan was formulated and I soon realized I found the care, compassion, dedication, and flexibility I was looking for. I was feeling relief within the first week of treatment from a chronic situation. They have saved my quality of life allowing me now to focus more on the important things in this world and less on the pain I'm in. Hope is out there, it's here."

"I have been seeing Albert for about 4 months for psoriasis. I first developed psoriasis in November of 2008 and spent the next 6 months in and out of various dermatologist. After having no real success with steroid creams, I turned to acupuncture and Albert for help. The shedding on my hands and feet have improved greatly. Acupuncture and Albert has help me significantly in managing my stress which is a key part in treating psoriasis."

"I first took my young daughter to Dr. Courtney in December 2008 to see if she could help with some behavioral issues that seemed to be tied to her diet. Dr. Courtney took the time to truly understand my concerns and my daughter’s needs. Within a short time of following the dietary guidelines and using the homeopathic remedies my daughter showed a marked improvement in her behaviors. We continue to see Dr. Courtney from time to time for other concerns. I am forever grateful for the care we receive. Thank you!"

As a new mother I was committed to breast-feeding while maintaining my career.  Needless to say, pumping became an integral part of my daily routine; so much so that my life was being measured in ounces of milk produced.  I panicked, when suddenly my milk supply reduced by half. Shortly after I began working with Albert... immediately I saw quantitative results.  Not only did my breast milk supply rebound, I also noticed my milk had a higher fat content post treatment. I feel very fortunate finding both success & a really great health care provider. I have since recommended Albert to family and friends.

I had never tried alternative medicine or therapy before, until I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis eight months ago. I had very bad reactions to the traditional daily injections for MS and my neurologist said my body could not tolerate them. I was left hanging.

By good fortune I was lead to Albert! I started with acupuncture for severe pain and disability with walking. The change didn’t happen immediately but combined with regular exercise I found incredible relief and am now walking without a walker or cane, and barely a limp! The interesting thing is that I found my energy level restored. I started feeling like my old self again!

I am now actually ‘better’ than my old self! I have so much energy and I don’t feel like a “sick person” anymore. I know MS has not left me completely, but I have an ally in Albert to keep me at my healthiest potential.
