Free on-the-go pill boxes for a limited time:
One of our quality vendors has left us some pill boxes to pass out. They are perfect for taking your lunch vitamin dose when you are "on the go". You can request yours when you are in refilling your natural medicines-- while supplies last.

Same day appointments now available:
As the need to provide you faster service has grown, we've met the demand. Our newest doc, Dr. Tais, is now fully credentialed, and you can see her at the same cost (or same insurance benefits) as if you were to see any of us. So, if you need to get in today, we can probably help! Call 360-651-WELL (9355)

Dr. Pournadeali receives the Joseph E. Pizzorno Outstanding Alumnus Award.
Based on a vote of his peers across the country, our own "Dr. P" was selected to receive the outstanding alumnus award from Bastyr University. Only a few others have received this award awarded to graduates who have achieved eminence in their field of study and rendered exceptional service to the university. Make sure to congratulate "Dr. P" when you see him for this important achievement. For more info visit: http://www.bastyr.edu/news/news.asp?NewsID=2138#nonav

Get that 15 pounds off before summer and try an injection of "buckshot" for free:
Whether you need to lose 15 pounds or 150, we can help. And, for a limited time (June and July only) if you sign up for a six or three week plan, you can receive one injection of "buckshot" at our cost. "Buckshot" is a combination of vitamins and amino acids that encourage the body to convert fat into energy at the cell level. For more information about our weight management programs visit our website or give us a call at: 360-651-WELL (9355) http://www.ncoh.net/services/healthcare/index.php?mid=32

Natural Medicine Update (new products):
Cardio Essentials (Packets): This combination includes Therapeutic levels of Red Rice Yeast, Pure Fish Oil, Time-Release niacin, and CoQ10. This formula can lower bad cholesterol, raise good cholesterol, reduce risk of stroke and heart attack, all while including some CoQ10, an important heart nutrient. If you are on any of these items, it might be more cost-effective to use the combination formula. Kinder Calm lozenges: GABA or gamma amino butyric acid has important relaxant qualities (in kids and adults). This sublingual lozenge form of GABA is particularly helpful in those wanting a calming agent that is fast acting, but non-sedating. As always, our prescription quality dispensary items are unmatched in quality, and fully tested to verify label claims. Ask your Northwest Center doctor about whether these agents might be right for you.
