2BWell Clinic

I would highly recommend 2bWell to anyone looking for a highly skilled naturopath. Dr. Vida Talebi is a wonderful person who puts so much care attention in to her patients and really gives you individual treatment. I came to Vida at one of the lowest lows in my life years ago. I couldn’t eat a thing without severe bloating, had such debilitating migraines so frequently that I needed quit my job and later found out about a hormone imbalance that was causing infertility. Dr. Talebi first worked on fixing my gut and had greatly reduced the bloating which in turn greatly reduced the migraines and many other digestion related issues, and lastly worked or correcting the hormone imbalance which corrected the remaining migraines and resulted in my pregnancy. Dr. Vida Talebi is a very talented woman and I am forever grateful to have found her!

Very disappointed and angry at this place.
I came in for a basic acupuncture treatment to help me sleep and was told that after insurance the cost was going to be around $ 30. They took my documents (insurance, ID, credit card) once, at my first visit and that was it. I came in 3 times and got a bill that charges for extra 15 minutes of treatment that I did not receive and some other crazy fees. Customer service not very good, as it seems impossible to get this issue resolved.

Great wellness center! I visit their pdx and LO location regularly in the past 4 years. They hire the most knowledgable staff for Naturopath, Acupuncture, Chiropractor and Massage.
What I love the most, they accept all kind of insurances and it’s so hassle free to work with their billing department! Thank you guys.

Dr Brush is a top notch naturopath. I have been her patient for over 5 years. I was referred to her by my Aunt. I have a primary traditional Doctor and see Dr Brush on an as needed basis. I have had a full allergy screening here. Julie helped me get off medication for an unusual medical condition I have. Right now I am only on the supplements she has directed me to take, and for that I am grateful. She is clear, professional and empathetic. I enjoy working with her very much.

I have been suffering from an undiagnosed pain in the middle of my chest since March 2011. After all sorts of tests (ultrasound, CT scan, MRI, endoscopy) and all sorts of medications, my M.D. admitted he had no clue what was wrong with me. I was taking 90 mg of morphine each day for pain that was so intense it was at the 8 – 10 level. I couldn’t sleep, clean my house, run errands, walk around the block (forget about running or working out at the gym), go grocery shopping, be a wife or friend; and since I could barely work, I ended up on intermittent disability. In short, I had no life to speak of.
I started treating with Siamak Shirazi for acupuncture twice a week. He was very calming and assured me he could help with the pain. At the beginning of each visit, he and I discussed my progress. After just a few weeks, the pain was markedly decreased. When I brought up my goal of trying to get off the morphine, he suggested I first talk to my M.D. to get the okay and set up a detox plan. Thankfully, Siamak’s vast experience has been able to help with the withdrawal symptoms.
I then met with Julie Brush (the naturopathic physican), who sat with me for a whole hour to discuss the chest pain as well as my health history, and what she could do to help me get back to my old (healthy) self. She said, «Oh, I think I know what’s wrong with you. I can help you.» She was the first doctor to give me hope! She gave me remedies to first detox and then strengthen my body (I have a compromised liver). I actually started being able to sleep again thanks to the regimen she placed me on. As each day goes by, I feel better and better; in fact, people have started to remark on how much more positive I seem, too.
I saw Justin Canfield for massage therapy once a week to help my poor body recover from all the sitting down I’d been doing as a result of not being able to live life. I admit I was never a fan of massage in the past because I usually ended up hurting worse *after* the massage than I did *before* it. Boy, have I changed my opinion as a result of Justin’s expertise!
Six weeks later… JUST SIX SHORT WEEKS LATER… I am down to 52.5 mg of morphine each day and the pain is at a 6 – 7 level. I can go to work perhaps 4 out of 5 days each week. I have been able to walk for 10 – 15 minutes at a time, and I can either clean my bathroom OR go grocery shopping OR go on a date with my husband OR go shopping at ONE store with a friend (Julie has impressed upon me that I cannot do everything I used to do right away or I will impede my progress).
Chronic illness is such a difficult road that unless you’ve been there, it’s impossible to know exactly how debilitating it can be. Sure, the pain eats away at you physically, emotionally, and psychologically. But throw in no actual diagnosis, and you start to doubt yourself and to think that you just might be going crazy, that maybe you’re making it all up, that maybe the pain is all in your head. The best part of coming to 2BWell Clinic has been that I feel like I am believed.
I am looking forward to more healing and to becoming the person I used to be. I have never felt so well-​cared-​for as with the folks at 2BWell Clinic. How wonderful to be listened to, to be heard, to be treated with dignity and respect. I am so grateful to have discovered 2BWell Clinic.

P. S. I just have to throw in my two cents about Jamie and Lara. They deserve major kudos for being pleasant, efficient, and supportive. The first (and last!) impression of the clinic is well served by these wonderful office staffers.
