These acupoints are thought to correspond to pathways (called meridians) that run throughout the body, influencing the flow of vital energy, or "Qi" (pronounced "chee").

Hear from our patients
Herniated disc / Sciatic pain Treated without surgerySandipMy wife found this clinic due to my recent health issues. We came to see the doctor and right away I was impressed how he addressed my issue and my questions. I came in for kidney health, since I only have one kidney and trying to avoid traditional medical options that are offered elsewhere. The doctor put me on a regiment and program that made me healthier, more energetic, I even lost a few pounds and even some of the unrelated health issues have been better. I am so glad that we found this clinic. It is not a pill to fix an issue like most doctors recommend that will create additional problems, it is more of a regiment and process, but a process that will get your health in general and what issue that you are addressing to a much better healthier state and best part, no other side effects. I have been seeing the doctor now for several months and couldn't be happier. Thank you all the staff at Netra Clinic for addressing my health.
Severe Excruciating Migraine And Hormonal ImbalanceAnnaThe words cannot explain the amount of a gratitude that I have for everything that has been done for me. In a very short period of time, my excruciating headache was gone, the overall health and quality of life improved to the level that I couldn't even dream about. I continue to improve other areas of my health and look forward to all the amazing things that are ahead of me. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Blessings to you.
Dr.Sai is god-sent for me, when i had developed a vision issue that doesnt have a "name" in western medicine. I feel lucky to stumble on this gem searching for alternative treatments.Dr. Sai is not only an acupuncturist but has deep knowledge of traditional treatment styles in chinese, tibetan and ayurvedic medicines. Under his care, i am almost back up there doing my normal lifestyle. He is very dedicated in helping his patients recover- to the extent that when the treatment demanded - he volunteered to open his office on weekends, just only for me. You are in good hands here. Just trust him and let his magic work.
{this review is truly not for his clinic but for the patients like me who are wandering for a cure for their unexplained vision issues. }
The holistic eye treatment provided by Dr. Gandapodi at Netra Eye Institute has been amazing. I came here with multiple eye complications and my vision that was continuously worsening, even after taking treatments with surgery, multiple injections and eye drops from my local eye doctor. In just about 4 weeks of starting the treatment at Netra Eye Institute, my vision has greatly improved from just seeing fingers at 2 feet to seeing a few lines on the vision chart. My macular edema has completely disappeared, and my IOP has stabilized from 32 to 9. Before the treatment, I was walking like a zombie with tonnel vision. After the treatment, I am now able to move around the house with ease and run up and down the stairs like normal. My blurriness had considerably reduced, and my night vision, color, and depth perception had greatly improved. I am highly optimistic about seeing further improvements with additional treatments. I would like to thank Dr. Gandapodi for helping me restore my failing vision. If you have a vision loss and conventional treatments are not helping you, I highly recommend that you try the holistic eye treatments offered by Dr. Gandapodi at the Netra Eye Institute.
If you are suffering with a chronic eye condition, I highly recommend scheduling a consultation with Dr. Saikumar Gandapodi at Netra Eye Institute in Edison, New Jersey. Dr. Gandapodi believes in treating the root cause of the eye condition rather than just addressing the symptoms. He is very detail oriented and methodical in his approach backed up by his education and therapy experience. He will provide you with a thorough analysis and look after you personally during the entire therapy session. I recently completed my three weeks of wellness therapy at Netra Eye Institute and I am already seeing major improvements with the reduction in my eye prescription correction numbers. Netra Eye Institute is not just a well equipped clinic but is also backed up by professional and patient-caring staff. Thank you Dr. Gandapodi for your services and care.
Doctor Gandapodi is a very compassionate doctor who makes every effort he is able for his patient. My husband saw good results.
