Another Acupuncture Question- update at bottom

So i called Andy kaplan

I was disguising myself w my married name, since i grew up with him LOL
anyway, i am going tomorrow night for a meeting with him
and PS, i told him who i really was- he was SOOO HAPPY!!


anyway, what is expected? anything i should bring?
do we go over prices, treatments etc?
i am nervous but excited at the same time, I need to get my mind off of things and relax

I didn't see Andy, but in my initial appt, I was asked a lot of questions so they could figure out their diagnosis and a treatment plan.
I only asked questions when my acupuncturist was talking about something I didn't understand.

The receptionist went over the cost with me and my acupuncturist told me how often she felt I should come in and when.

Re: Another Acupuncture Question

LOVE Andy!!

I don't remember if we did a treatment at my first appt ... but I do remember I filled out papers and we discussed my infertility history. He discussed prices and what each session is like... how long each session takes.. .etc. I don't actually think we did a treatment that day but I could be wrong. It was soooo long ago.

He is GREAT!! I know you said how weird it is since you went to school with him, but i'm so happy you were able to look past that! Andy is so cool and fun! Chat Icon I've actually been meaning to stop by one of these days to say hi!

Re: Another Acupuncture Question

When I was going it was $60/session but he may have gone up since then.

I went twice a week when actively in a cycle, otherwise I went once. He will let you know what you need. Going twice a week def made the time fly.

Love Andy! Went to him for about 18 months while ttc DD then throughout my pregnancy. About to start trying again and excited to start seeing him again. Emotionally I found acupuncture to be very helpful.
