It turned out I have lymphoma, and am now under the care of an oncologist for this condition. This quality of medical care is priceless. I am extremely grateful to be her patient.

Although some of these medicines worked for a while or had no effect on me, I realized that I pretty much gave up on myself. After spending a month in the hospital and nearly losing my kidney functions I decided to get a second opinion. I found Dr. Yu and he put me on a path to health that I forgot existed! He opened my eyes to a quality of life that for 20 years I had been seeking! I give him all the credit for my reinvigorated life and he, being the humble man he is tells me, " you did all the work!" I have my life back and feel only joy, a joy that has replaced my pain! Thank you Dr. 1000 times thank you! Appreciatively, Alex Ibarra

I've dealt with complex medical issues recently which were overwhelming, but Dr. Armstrong makes me feel heard, and completely supported every step of the way. He listens deeply to my concerns, takes my personal health goals seriously, and never rushes through our appointments. When I needed targeted specialty care, his office was fast, efficient, and proactive in managing referrals and coordinating paperwork. During stressful moments when symptoms felt unstable, he provided immediate clarity and guidance on exactly what steps to take next. I almost lost out because I was discouraged by the wait as a new patient. He explains complex medical information in simple, universal terms, if you are looking for a brilliant, compassionate lifetime doctor, be confident.

He is truly wonderful--his bedside manner is outstanding, he is patient, listens carefully, and is genuinely compassionate. He always takes the time to make sure I feel heard and understood, which is so important in healthcare. The entire office staff is equally amazing. I've had consistently great experiences with Kim, Carina, and Cricket, who go above and beyond to help patients. They've assisted me with additional requests such as filling out applications and other administrative needs, always with kindness and efficiency. It's rare to find a medical practice where both the doctor and staff care so deeply about their patients. I feel very lucky to have Dr. Armstrong as my physician and highly recommend his practice to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy family doctor.

Wow my first session here and it was so throughly explained!…read more I've been to one from my insurance and also to the college but this was such a pleasant and different experience! They did a meridian scan and I was impressed. What it showed was exactly how I was feeling. Dr. Jo came in and then went over the results and did my acupuncture session. After 20 mins I already felt better. Since it was my first visit they also gave me a goodie bag filled with treats and water to hydrate myself. Highly recommend this place! Such great energy they have at this office. So pleasant from being greeted right when checking in and every person I encountered.

I wanted to wait a couple months before writing this review to give this acupuncture business an…read moreaccurate assessment based on the outcomes I've obtained. I have rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and have taken the holistic approach to treating my disease. I decided to try acupuncture to see if it could assist with my inflammation and pain. I did my research and decided to try Lee Acupuncture based on all the positive reviews. There were even a few reviews coming from arthritis patients who had obtained good results. They're located in a small business plaza that borders Costa Mesa & Newport Beach. The big "Melton Int'l Tackle" sign is a good landmark. They are located all the way down the alley on the right. Free parking is available. The office itself is rather small with 3-4 patient rooms and a small waiting area that's comfortably furnished with 2 chairs, a sofa and some snacks & water. I was pleased to learn that my insurance covered the first 6 sessions (per year) at $40 co-pay per session. After that the rate goes up, but you can buy a package that offers lower rates. The very 1st session was interesting, as they hooked me up to a machine to determine how balanced my energy was flowing internally. It highlighted key areas of improvement. The belief is that the more balanced I am, the less inflammation I will have. Each session is about 1/2 an hour. I started going twice a week, and now I go once a week. I was assigned to Dr. Kim who thoroughly explained everything to me prior to starting, and continues to remain helpful and caring. He inserts the needles in various areas, primarily my hands, feet and head. Sometimes it hurts a little when the needles go in, and a couple times I've bled after the needles came out, but that's probably because it hit a vein. I lay on the table for 1/2 hour and feel very relaxed afterwards. In addition to the acupuncture, I take herbs that I purchase from them for $90 for 1 weeks worth. They said it's very important to keep taking the herbs as it assists with the healing process. I had also read about this online. I take the herbs 2x a day (AM & PM) with food. I mix the herbs with a little water and drink it like a tea. After approximately two months of acupuncture and drinking herbs, I can positively say that my inflammation has gone down significantly. I took a photo of my inflammation on my hands & feet prior to starting, and there has been a big improvement! I will definitely continue seeing Dr. Kim, and I'm so happy I discovered Lee Acupuncture.

Upon handing over my medical records, the receptionist said she was gonna need to keep them. I told her they were my only copies and asked that she make a copy of them or scan them into her system. She said, no, but I would have to give them to her or I couldn't see the doctor. She got pushy and agitated. Left the front desk with my medical records. Then she came back and said I would have to leave the office. I never got to see the doctor. There is definitely something odd going on in this office. I suspect they want to prevent their patience from getting second opinions. Perhaps they have some shady business practices. Or perhaps they are racist, as some others have suggested in these reviews. Whatever the reason is, I wouldn't trust him with my health.

She is located in one of the multitude of Hoag Medical buildings within a couplex in Newport. The nurses here are very nice, caring and congenial. Allergy tests were performed (the method where they put an array of tests on your back) which helped narrow down the allergies. Dr. Gupta then reviewed the allergies, explained in detail how and why allergies occur and what line of testing and treatment she would like to follow plus took time to answer all my questions. She then had me do a blood test and make a return visit to review everything. She really pinpointed what was causing my allergic reactions. Dr. Gupta instills confidence in her knowledge and abilities. She is very professional, helpful, caring and courteous; a beautiful person both inside and out.
