My experience at the Akasha Center has been so wonderful. Dr. de Mello and everyone I have worked with there has been so patient and understanding, taking the time to work with me in a way that best suits my individual needs. Everybody works together at the Akasha Center in a most peaceful and harmonious environment.
I came to Swati dealing with life-threatening depression and anxiety. After a few short months of intensive treatment that blended eastern philosophy and meditation with a minimal amount of western medicine, she turned my life around. I now feel better than I ever have before.
Thank you for creating such a truly whole-istic health care setting, with an emphasis on caring for health everyday, not just dealing with disease. You all bring a warmth and enthusiasm to caring for your patients that is sorely lacking in many “standard” practices! more »
We bought our Mom in for a 2nd opinion on her Dementia. We found Dr. de Mello to be very knowledgeable, very clear and precise in his Dx and describing her condition to us. Our mother was very relaxed and co-operative. She likes Dr. de Mello. Over all it was a relaxing experience for a Dr.’s office.I would recommend this type of medicine to anyone who cares about their overall health.
I saw a number of western medical doctors, naturopaths and herbalists over the course of a year. No one was able to address my lack of energy, chronic back pain and need for sugar and caffeine to keep me going. I saw Eugene Iwasa for approximately three months of treatment with Chinese herbs and acupuncture and my health has changed. I have more energy, less pain and I am not craving sugar and caffeine. more »
Dear Dr. Hu,Beginning at about 12 years of age, I had to deal with unwanted and serious weight gain along with irregular and horrible menstrual cycles. It was not until my mid 20s that a doctor finally told me why: Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. The day that I learned this was both a blessing and a curse. I was happy to finally know why I could never lose weight despite every diet and exercise regime known to man. more »
Dear Dr. de Mello,Thank you so very much for your heart felt care and your very thorough exam. I was not sure I could afford the tests I needed, however you made sure I received the care I need by calling your colleagues and explaining my situation. All this is now doable. I haven’t been cared for like this since I was a child in my mother’s care. I am humbled, gratified and inspired.Again, thank you so very, very much.
In appreciation of Dr. Edison de Mello and the Akasha Center
WENDIE: For many years we have used an HMO but found that, especially in the last few years, the environment and care had taken a serious dive causing us to become disgruntled and lack confidence in the ‘care’ (or lack of it) that we were receiving. About a year and a half ago I had casually mentioned this to one of our non-HMO medical professionals who suggested the Akasha Center.

At last my search for a caring and competent doctor is over. Dr. de Mello is the antidote to one of today’s healthcare shortcomings where patients are treated with a flick of a pen on a prescription pad instead of with the care, insight and time required to heal the whole being. more »
I also had the experience of others on the staff of whom I found to be very professional.
It is my first time when I have actually felt a Doctor was, and is, truly a Health care practitioner.
The advice to explore Yoga and some sort of Spiritual component to my wellness was a first.
Akasha covers a whole spectrum of components to help a person with whatever ailments they may be experiencing. I personally plan on having the Akasha Center as my primary care. I would confidently refer anyone to the center. Thank you.
