Beverly Wells, CEO
Bev graduated with a BS in Computer and Information Sciences from Cleveland State University. After serving five years in the United States Air Force, she moved to Portland. Bev then spent 23 years working at her sister’s business in the world of phone systems, data networks and constantly changing technology. In 2010, Lisa wanted to expand RiverWest Acupuncture. She could not do that and see her normal patient load. Thus, Bev decided to join her to take care of the business end of the clinic. Her greatest thrill is to see a patient walk in with “issues” and walk out changed as a result of the work that the practitioners do here. Some patient stories have been so healing and transformative that they literally brought her to tears. She feels incredibly blessed to work in this environment, with her favorite person in the world, her wife, Lisa. And she’s proud to be part of a clinic that was voted as 1 of best acupuncturist in Portland.
