I gave my acupuncturist in San Francisco 5 well-deserved stars, but she cannot hold a candle to Dr…read more Wang. Dr. Wang was a teaching physician and medical administrator in China prior to opening her practice in Ithaca more than 20 years ago - first in a tiny suite at the Boardman House by DeWitt Park, then in the DeWitt Mall, and now at the Integrative Medicine Center. When I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, Dr. Wang got my symptoms AND labs under control before I could even get an appointment with my endocrinologist. When I had debilitating sinus infection after sinus infection last fall (I'm still not used to the dry air in CA), I had acupuncture with Dr. Wang every day for a week over winter break and it completely broke through my pattern - I haven't so much as gotten a sore throat since then and I've been breathing better than I have for a long time. She sees patients for all sorts of conditions, but she's really known for her fertility work. She's constantly being invited to baby showers and birthdays. Which brings me to the main reason she's such a great doctor - she absolutely loves what she does. She cannot bear to leave Ithaca for very long (even for trips to China) because she loves seeing her patients and really wants to make sure every patient is cared for. Also, she's helped write the national board exam for acupuncturist, given classes for continuing education credit for other acupuncturists, and has served on who knows how many boards relating to acupuncture and Chinese medicine. Dr. Wang probably one of the most knowledgeable herbalists in the US. She is vice president of Blue Light, Inc., another locally owned company down on State/MLK street, where she consults with acupuncturists and herbalists all over the country to develop case-specific formulas.

Though formal at first, she is very concerned about my health, and got me off of a cane, something my surgeon did not expect. When I started showing high blood pressure, Dr. Wang added needles and herbs to manage it, and I am NOT on high blood pressure medication. She trains me to take care of myself, and is always thoughtful about explaing what the issues are and how she is treating them.

Went to ICA for the first time today -- I wish I wouldn't have waited so long!! I've had…read moreacupuncture done in the past, but this was so much better and a truly amazing experience. My treatment was with Tim - such a warm and inviting doctor. I was a bit wary of the community setting (it seemed a bit uncomfortable to me that others would hear our conversation), but Tim spoke softly to maintain privacy. I think they also have a spare room for private treatments. Frankly, I think sharing the experience with the 6 other people added to my experience. Everyone was respectful of each others treatments. So incredible. With the sliding scale payment scheme, I can definitely afford to have frequent visits. This is particularly helpful for me since I have a history of joint and muscle injuries that take a bit more time to treat. There's a $10 fee for the first visit, then it's $15-$35 a session, depending on what you can afford. What a remarkable way to offer treatment! I made my appointment via their website - totally easy process. Oh, and it's cash or check only, but Alternatives is right around the corner. I can't speak highly enough about ICA - 5 stars all around.

In March 2026 I realized that was seeing double. I saw my ophthalmologist two days later and she…read morediagnosed me with Sixth Nerve Palsy. The condition was very disorienting and disconcerting. My footing was unstable and I couldn't drive. Since the diagnosis was that it was a nerve problem, I consulted with Dr. Gong. She said it was an unusual problem and made no promises, but said that she would be willing to give it a try. After nine appointments with Dr. Gong between late April and early June, the double vision disappeared. When Dr. Gong started her treatments, we decided she should work on two other problems also. First, in Sept. 2006 I had torn a ligament in my right ankle. I had gone to an orthopedist and physical therapist at the time and done the exercises they recommended. The ankle improved, but never felt quite right. Since Dr. Gong has been treating the ankle, it has noticeably improved. Second, in July 2023 I was diagnosed with a pinched nerve in my neck that caused considerable pain around my left shoulder blade and discomfort down my left arm to my hand. I had three months of physical therapy and took Gabopentin for 2 1/2 years. The shoulder blade pain went away and the arm discomfort lessened, but residual discomfort remained in my left forearm and index finger and thumb. Since Dr. Gong has been treating those areas, the discomfort has lessened further.

My eye specialists wanted to do a fifth surgery. I decided to try something different. Because I was constantly suffering with headaches, nor did I have vision in my left eye. A good friend of mine and my sister recommended I go to acupuncture. After coming to Gang Acupuncture Clinic, I've gotten some of my vision back. I can read some of the chart. My eye doctor now recommends tĥat I keep going to Acupuncture. My ED situation has gotten better. Things are looking UP. I highly recommend Gang Acupuncture Clinic.

When I…read morefirst went to see him I had intense lower left back pain especially when I would try to turn over in my bed, my back would just start spasming. My first treatment which included an hour acupressure message or some call it a medical message, followed by an acupuncture procedure and cupping, totaling a full hour and a half. Let me tell you, which I tell all my friends...I can't get to the bank quick enough each week to be able to have another secession with Dr. Li. I am 67 yrs. old now and have never felt better. When you have your body tuned up every week, it could be from a sprained ankle, which I just had fixed last week, to just removing all the tight spots or knots in your back and neck, I sleep so well, walk with a better gate and basically my whole body feels free from stress

Recently I reached out to CNY for help with one of my dear friends benefit for her breast cancer journey; her friends and I were diligently reaching out to local businesses for gift card donations, and I had reached out to CNY explaining the scenario. They were completely supportive and sent a generous gift card to raffle off on the day of her event. This act of kindness deserves a special 5 star review in and of itself. I have been a fan of this location for years, and now I will forever be grateful for your kindness to help make her benefit a success! Thank you CNY :)
