I am impressed of the a simple and mindfully “staying still” does wonders for you body and mind. I... felt safe inside the HBOT knowing that I was being healed inside and out. I can tell now improvement on my skin looking and feeling healthier and my chest congestion and dry cough that I had for many years has improved dramatically after the second session. I am thankful for Dr Minh’ kindness and his staff promptness to accommodate my needs.read more
Summary:My experience with NorCal Brain Center left me with serious concerns. After a $700... assessment, the evaluating doctor suggested my daughter had a neurological condition and recommended a $5,000+ treatment plan, none of which was covered by insurance. However, when we sought a second opinion from a psychiatrist, they determined it was not neurological. With simple medication, her symptoms improved significantly within two weeks.Additionally, the super bill we received contained unrelated diagnoses, including a concussion—which my daughter has never had. While the staff is friendly and professional, I now question whether their assessments are accurate or if they are simply promoting expensive treatments. Also, the numerous positive reviews might not tell the full story—NorCal Brain Center runs sweepstakes where patients who post reviews are entered into a raffle for free treatment.Detailed Review:We initially visited NorCal Brain Center because my daughter was frequently rolling her eyes involuntarily. After their $700 assessment, we were told this was neurological and required 12 sessions costing over $5,000. None of it was covered by insurance. While the evaluation process felt thorough, something about the diagnosis and treatment plan gave me pause.To be cautious, we consulted a psychiatrist for a second opinion. After their evaluation, they concluded that my daughter’s condition was not neurological. Instead, she was prescribed medication, and within two weeks, her symptoms had improved significantly. This left me wondering how NorCal Brain Center arrived at their diagnosis—and whether they might have been mistaken or simply following a business model that promotes extensive treatments.Another issue was the super bill they provided, which included diagnoses that seemed completely irrelevant, such as a concussion—something my daughter has never experienced. I don’t know if this was an oversight or just part of their standard billing process, but it raised concerns.It’s also worth noting that NorCal Brain Center has many five-star ratings, but I later learned they run raffle-style sweepstakes—patients who leave reviews are entered to win free treatments. This makes me wonder how many of those glowing reviews are truly unbiased.In the end, I can’t say for certain whether this was a case of misdiagnosis, an overly aggressive treatment approach, or something else entirely. However, based on my experience, I would strongly recommend getting a second opinion before committing to any expensive treatment plan here.read more
Dr Minh did a wonderful job to help improve our son's developmental issues. Our son had some brain... issues from not breathing for the first 7 minutes of his life and Dr Minh and his staff effectively identified concussion symptoms as a result, primarily effecting the back of the brain (stability and coordination).After just 6 weeks, the results were amazing and our son went from severe to near normal on most stability tests. He passed his driving exam which he had been having trouble to pass before the treatments and then went on to make a competitive basketball team which had seemed out of reach just a few months before.We continued treatment for an additional 3 months, refining the cerebral cortex and then moving to the cerebellum, where results to fix the "concussion" have also been phenomenal with increased awareness of our son's surroundings and the end of "figity habits". Thank to so much Dr Minh--you have changed our son's life. Keep it up!read more
