In late 2001 I came down with ulcerative colitis. I was under the care of a gastroenterologist and taking pills that hadn't been tested on patients my age. As my condition got worse and worse I couldn't go to work or shopping without problems. It also ended my visiting out of town friends because of the embarrassment. I thought the rest of my life would be like this with the possibility of having my colon removed. I was taking up to 12 pills a day and had been put on Prednisone two different times. My condition just got worse. I finally decided that the treatment wasn't working and I needed to change directions.

I mentioned to my co-workers that I thought of trying an alternative treatment like acupuncture. One of the ladies I work with said she was going to acupuncture and gave me Siamak Shirazi's phone number. I made an appointment immediately. Dr. Shirazi went over a treatment plan with me and after one month I noticed improvement. Four months later I went to my regular physician for my annual physical. She couldn't believe how well I was doing and my liver enzymes that were high for years were near normal. I continued taking pills given to me by my gastrorologist reducing the dosage until I quit them completely at about 6 months. I haven't taken them since and that was about 3 years ago. I now go to Siamak Shirazi about every other month just to make sure the symptoms don't reoccur. I thank Dr. Shirazi for saving my life and sanity. I wanted to share my experience so that maybe someone else with IBS or Colitis might benefit.

I love this place and always leave feeling more relaxed and healed. Dr Hoffman, Hillary and Siamak are all excellent caretakers of my health. I highly recommend seeing them.

I CANNOT give enough praise to Dr. Huffman and Dr. Crupper. Tracey and Emerson at the desk are wonderful people as well.. This team has helped me come full circle with my health as well as my gender journey. You are a person first then a patient.

It's taken over a year to get myself back on track and it wouldn't have happened without these lovely humans. They have advocated for me, worked with me, and supported me through a lot of hard work and change to address my issues.

Amazing care takers and true healers. I feel blessed to have met such a committed, brave, and wonderful group of individuals. Not everyone is willing to speak out and advocate when you're going against large institutions, but I speak from the heart when I say I couldn't have gotten back on my feet if it wasn't for all of these beautiful people.

Frustrated, this was my mental state during the fall of 2009 and it only got worse after Thanksgiving. Suddenly, I saw myself at 245 pounds, 5'10" tall and about to turn 38 years old. Wanting to make a change, earlier in the year I had a physical by my primary care physician. All the blood work was fine and other then being too heavy; his advice was cut back on calories and workout more. I tried and other then getting more and more frustrated, I did not lose a pound.

I suffered a heel injury and reached out to Siamak Shirazi for treatments. During the second treatment session I shared with him my frustration on trying to lose weight and asked for his advice. I provided Siamak a copy of my blood work up and we agreed to meet again in a week or so after that. In this appointment Siamak and I made a plan that was 100% attainable. His part of the deal was easy; the hard part was on me. He started to modify his treatments slightly to aid my body's natural ability to transform and become more efficient, by late Nov 2009. We also created a detoxification program for me which included a restricted diet and nutritional supplements. The detox diet lasted about three weeks but I continued to take some of his recommended supplements. This was not very easy and so many times I just wanted to give up, but the need to change drove me on. Siamak also made me keep track of my calories on a meal by meal basis; at this stage I can do it in my head. The outcome over the first three weeks was incredible, I lost 5 pounds. I continued with a modified diet and exercise program and it made January a wonder month. I continued losing weight while working out regularly and eating better and even having a glass of wine once in awhile or a cup of coffee to help my mental state.

On Monday February 1st 2010, I met with a personal trainer to start focusing on sculpting my frame and learn more specific exercises to continue with my total transformation and to make my exercise more efficient. I now weight at 228 pounds and still have a 31% body fat. So I am still carrying around some extra fat but I also have a large frame, so we set the goal for me to reduce my weight to 205 pounds. I am now on a modified supplement program and my treatments with Siamak are reduced to once a month. With my new program and added energy, I burn about 500 calories with each workout, thus I am about 166 work outs away. With my life schedule, I think I can make it to the club 20 times a month, by January 2011 I should be close to my ideal weight.

Great service and the newsletter is helpful in all ways.

Dr. Huffman is such a breath of fresh air. I have been struggling physically, mentally, and emotionally just trying to find the right support system and I've gone from doctor to doctor looking for it. Well, I'm looking no further. Brooke makes you feel safe and comfortable and listened to. She's extremely knowledgeable and she goes above and beyond to find the right answers for YOU. I've not had a healthcare provider be so helpful, supportive, and well-rounded. If you're looking for a new ND, go see her now!!

This practice is full of caring, kind professionals who treat you like a person rather than a problem to be solved like so many doctor's do. Dr. Huffman and Dr Shirazi are great and the other staff are awesome too. Highly recommend this clinic

I have had hormone issues for years. Dr. Huffman has managed to help me get my body balanced out again. We are not at the end of the road but I finally know what "normal" should feel like. Thank you Dr. Huffman.

I am a 46 year old woman that has been under acupuncture treatment with Siamak Shirazi for over 10 years. He has helped me considerably with tendonitis and shoulder pain associated with computer work over the years in addition to pre-menopausal symptoms. He has taken the time to find out my areas of discomfort and concern and has done a great job of working on my pain in a very comfortable, soothing environment at the 2BWell Clinic. In addition, I have recently been under the care of Julie Brush, NP and she has helped me set up an easy to follow detoxification program.

It is very nice that Siamak has set-up a place where I can go to get the alternative treatment by well-educated and experienced professionals. I have even had a few massages with their massage therapist and found that service/treatment very helpful to relieve muscular tension and tightness. The 2B Well Clinic is a very warm, comfortable environment that provides holistic health treatment for people of all ages! . I would highly recommend coming and visiting the clinic to help with a natural approach to health care.

Have had positive results from Neurofeedback by naturopathic doctor, Dr. Brooke Huffman. Highly recommend!

Being newly diagnosed with cancer was both stressful and tiring. Acupuncture treatments have alleviated the fatigue, reduced the anxiety, and given me the energy to improve my health. Dr. Siamak Shirazi's caring, treatments and suggestions for integrated mind/body wellness have been a wonderful balance to support, and augment the standard westernized treatments of blood counts and CT scans. I am feeling stronger in facing this challenge.

Couldn't be a better clinic. They helped me get diagnosed with a lifelong illness I didn't have any answers for after many doctors "attempted." Dr Brooke Huffman, dr tennant and dr crupper are ALL gems. Dr huffman puts in a lot of time to make sure that her low income and Medicaid patients get their needs met. They have helped me access the treatments I have needed to get better as a chronically ill person. Their clinic is also very friendly to LGBT folks, I can vouch as a non binary trans person.

Siamak, I just read your newsletter and this particularly really spoke to me, "We have literally held so many patients' hands as they walked the path from living in physical pain and mental agony into wellness!"

It's been a couple of years since I had searing nerve pain caused by excess weight. At the time, acupuncture was the only immediate remedy, but weight loss was the cure. I haven't been back to see you because you really did get me on the path to wellness and I'm please to give you an update.

I've lost 120 pounds since our first visit and maintained that weight loss for two years. Since then I have run 4 half marathons and joined a Masters Rowing team, competing in regional and national regattas. I haven't had this level of fitness since I was 18 years old.

I want to thank you for holding my hand through that journey to wellness.'

Look no further for the most amazing ND--- Dr Huffman!

she offers professional and heartfelt services for all of her clients. Very clean office with. Great services!

A great place 2B. Dr. Brooke Huffman is a wealth of health. The wonderful people at the front office are helpful and professional. Arrive a couple minutes early to pay for parking.

I can tell you this. Michael knows his shit and really gets down to what, why, and how to make you better. Love the guy. Pause lol

Great care.

Dr. Crupper has recently become my primary physician and with his help and guidance I have been sleeping better and working towards overall wellness. I also purchased the new 2BWell products for massage and body aches and am pleasantly surprised at how well they work, as well as how little goes such a long way. They are affordable and the magnesium spray helps my tired feet feel rejuvenated.

I started at 2bwell about three years ago when I felt run down and sick. I went to Siamak and the acupuncture treatment he gave really helped my symptoms. In addition, he provided me with a natural throat spray. Preventing illness is certainly preferable to being sick and fighting an existing problem. Siamak encouraged me to come back and work on my immune system. Weekly appointments started off my new health regimen and then as I got healthier we tapered my appointments to better maintain my health.

I used to be a person who got several colds in a season and those colds often developed into a bacterial infection. Western Medicine only offered condolences and antibiotics, but no one in that school of thought ever truly treated the root of the problem. Siamak has helped me have a stronger immune system so that I rarely get sick, even when my husband catches something. By researching and consulting other experts in the field, Siamak showed me that he truly cares and wants to heal his patients. He is willing to spend time both during and outside of an appointment to ensure the wellbeing of his patients. I am so grateful to have this much better alternative available!

I had been dealing with major health issues for months in regard to my digestion. Doctor Hoffman put me on an anti inflammatory diet and within days I found the relief I had been searching for. I am so impressed with both the knowledge and genuine care that this team takes to truly hear you. In a profession at times that just views you as science it was nice to be understood before diagnosed.

I saw Dr. Michael Crupper, ND, LAc, two days ago for a lower back injury and pain. I was very impressed by his accurate diagnosis, compassionate approach, and excellent bedside manner. I'm already noticing improvement in my recovery. I'd also like to thank the office staff—especially Angie—for her help with scheduling and support. Overall, it was an outstanding experience, and I highly recommend 2B WELL for their exceptional care.

This clinic is awesome! Can't recommend the team up at 2BWELL enough! I lost my previous healthcare provider suddenly and they adapted my healthcare to the 2BWELL clinic in Portland Oregon and they have worked closely and quickly with my case. I really am glad to be in their care! I would recommend them and Dr.Huffman in particular for primary care,mental healthcare and hormone management. I'm glad to have this clinic in my corner during a tough transition period.

Great group of people work there.

We found 2bWell when one of my children could not get help from western docs. Turns out they had a genetic enzyme deficiency that was easily solved with supplements. Our family began working with Dr. Brush at the clinic. For myself, I've experienced a reduction in sickness overall - it's been a good experience for me and my family.

The office staff and all providers that I have worked with are incredibly friendly and helpful all the time

Incredible clinic with kind, compassionate doctors. I've been seeing Dr. Huffman & Dr. Atwood for a little over 3 years. They've helped me with my most difficult health concerns. Very responsive & easy to get in contact with via phone or email. Office manager Kimmy works magic on the insurance aspect of care & was able to get me full coverage through CareOregon for the modalities & procedures that helped most in my healing process. So grateful to have them as my healthcare providers & recommend them highly to my friends.

I am a 56 year old woman who wanted to brighten my look and see what could be done about the deepening wrinkles I have. I did not want to be what I call "disfigured" by conventional facelifts.

About three months ago I began Cosmetic Acupuncture treatment at the 2BWell Clinic. I am finished with the initial treatment and now I do follow ups for a while.

I am extremely pleased with my results. Siamak Shirazi, who is a licensed acupuncturist and has extensively trained in cosmetic acupuncture, did a wonderful job in helping me to look more youthful. My skin does look brighter with more color. My face looks fuller and less drawn. Many people have commented on how "rested" I look. A grocery store clerk commented on how great I looked as I checked out at her stand one day. People are noticing a difference and I am very glad I chose this route to feel more beautiful at my age.

I plan to continue the follow up visits. I am enjoying the new look that I have.

2BWell is my favorite place of care. Tracey at the front desk is always nice, sweet, and informative. She helps me get everything I need done in a timely manner and is always very professional. She even lets me know when there's a cancellation so I can get seen sooner if needed! Which is extremely helpful! Dr. Huffman is also amazing! She's my primary care provider, and you can tell she truly cares for her patients. She's extremely knowledgeable and goes for a natural medicine approach which I love. I also receive Neuro feedback from her which I honestly feel has been helping me in my healing journey. Dr. Mike is another one of my care providers, he's really great and respectful. He has a lot of hats that he wears for the 2bwell team. He's helps me with chiropractic, body work, and acupuncture. And lastly I also see Dr. Bethany. She also helps me with my pain management. She's very calming, knowledgeable, and very patient. I'm so happy to have this team look after my well being. This queer competent clinic is affirming, respectful, and flexible. I feel like I'm visiting family when I go here. Everyone should go here. They also offer texting for scheduling, which is great for those with phone anxiety, as well as the convenience if you're needing to be in a quiet area. They are in person and telemedicine.

I cannot speak highly enough about Dr. Huffman and her exceptional patient care. I have been seeing her as a patient as well as a Nuro feedback client for just under a year.

I was fighting severe depression and Nuro feedback was recommended to help me.

Six months after visiting her for Nuro feedback I am off my antidepressants and I have never felt better.

Dr. Huffman is an exceptional doctor and I want to promote the Nuro feedback that she offers in clinic as well.

Don't hesitate! Pick up your phone and call today to make your appointment. You will not regret it!
