There are so many incredible things I could say about origin health center and the amazing team that Dr MannVy and Dr. Kaila make; I know that I could not fit it all into just one review. that being said, I'll start by relaying a message i sent them last night: "Seriously i cannot stress how much I love you guys. you have (regularly lol) seen me at my worst, and always treat me like a normal human. And I wouldn't be able to go out into the world presenting my best self without all of your help. I hope all your patients know this!!! You guys really make a difference on top of being great people " ---if you've ever struggled with chronic health issues, and the difficult reality of living in a world with a body that doesn't work like it "should", you have a home (and a safe, happy--even joyful--space) at Origin Health Center. Thank you for everything you do. --Aurora Campanile read more

Origin Health Center deserves an updated review! I've been a long-time patient over the last 8.5 years for various services. :: IV nutritional drips - for immunity (Myer's Cocktail), hydration or simply pick me up when in a brain fog (NAD) or when my labs show there's a deficiency :: Injections: B12, Skinny shots, Vitamin D :: PRP Microneedling - facial treatment using platelet-rich plasma (yup you're own blood) before those K-trashians made it trendy - reduced pores and overall, skin looked better ** NEW 2024 - 2025 Treatments ** :: EmFace - non invasive, high-intensity facial electrical stimulation (HIFES) to tighten, tone, and sculpt the face - it also helps immensely with TMJ by relaxing the masseter muscle. I definitely see (face slimmer) and feel the benefits from this treatment! :: EXION - skin rejuvenation procedure - radiofrequency (RF) and ultrasound to stimulate collagen and elastin production Location is quiet with private rooms. Both doctors, Dr Kaila and Dr Manvy are true professionals, friendly, knowledgable and approachable with any questions and available for any follow up. They are both easy to talk to and will put you at ease with any concerns. Front staff friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately, costs aren't reimbursable through MY work FSA (it is with other companies) as its holistic medicine which seems counterintuitive but an available option. Mixed metered parking on Piedmont Ave and free parking on the side streets. Hours are very flexible with weekend availability. Accepts Flexible financing (interest free) through Advance Care: advancecarecard.com read more

Since my first visit with Dr. Kaila, I had a great experience by getting the righ treatment my body was screaming for in order to feel like myself again. She goes above and beyond to resolve any concerns or issues with your health. Very thankful for that Dr. Kaila read more

I've been coming to Origin Health Center for over a year now, and I can honestly say the experience has been wonderful. The staff is knowledgeable, caring, and truly focused on your overall well-being. I trust them so much that I even brought my whole family in to get vitamins after we found out we were low on vitamin D. It's comforting to know we're in good hands and getting quality guidance and products. I highly recommend Origin Health Center to anyone looking to improve their health with a supportive and professional team. read more

This is a great place to get vitamins, staff is amazing, caring and friendly. They genuinely listen and make recommendations of how to help you feel better. My favorite doctors and Lena read more

I was on Clubhouse and I heard a discussion about prescriptions/nutrient absorption. This made me wonder how well any medicine, whether prescription, OTC or supplement was working for me. I sought out a naturopath because my labs from the MD always come back perfect. I happened upon Origin Health Center. Don't sleep on this place! There is science here. They will work with your MD e.g. more testing and analysis and evaluate whether you need anything. My labs are always perfect! OHC recommended an additional test that isn't in the standard battery. Results were interesting, not perfect but correctable. In fact, I've now also got an additional specialist. This is a place you can trust. read more

I have been coming to this clinic for one year. This has been by far my best and most effective clinic I have worked with over the last 6 years. Dr. Manvy and Dr. Kyla are very knowledgable. Lina the office manager is super sweet and thoughtful. Both doctors are very knowledgable about EmWave for skin regeneration is non invasive and the treatment has been incredible. My skin looks better after just one session- I swear one treatment of EmFace reduced my wrinkle and elasticity by 10 years. The payment plan for EmFace made this very achievable due to financial restrictions. They are open six days a week and they are very flexible About timing and days open. They have very fair pricing for IVs and are very kind. They get you snacks and water and electrolytes while you are getting their infusion. The office is also surrounded by beautiful flowers and a garden and plants - overall a nice space with positive energy. Fabulous for healing. Will never stop coming unless I leave the Bay Area. read more

I can't express how thankful I am to my Origin health center family. They have helped me through the toughest time in my life with expert knowledge, care and love. read more

Absolultely love this place and highly recommend to anyone looking for holistic healing! Dr. kaila is extremely knowledgeable,thorough and cares for the health of her patients.

This health center is so welcoming, and has friendly service! It was my first time, I got the Vitamin C & B12 IV shot, it was quick and easy! Vitamin C is great for immunity and the B12 helps with my post workouts, boosts metabolism and energy. read more

Our circa 5 years experience at Origin Health Center with Drs. Kaila and ManVy, and Lina has been consistently outstanding. Not only are they expert in their medical knowledge, they are also so very kind, flexible and sensitive in dealing with patients. I can't recommend them highly enough. read more

I recently posted my review on Google and I thought I would share here as well :) This practice is so wonderful, I don't even know where to begin! I was diagnosed with stage IV breast cancer back in Nov. 2022. I found them after a friend of mine recommended receiving vitamins intravenously to help during my chemo treatment. I have been coming to see Dr. Man Vy since early 2023 and I've also had the pleasure of seeing Dr. Kaila as well; both physicians are an absolute delight to work with. I've grown close with Dr. Man Vy and not only does she know the right vitamin therapy that is best for me, she also is so kind and takes the time to ask about myself and my family. I can't tell you how touching it is to go into a place where you know they actually care for your well being. I've also been very fortunate with my treatment thus far and I do believe it has a lot to do with the vitamin therapy I've been receiving from Origin Health Center. I honestly don't think without this element as part of my treatment, I would be having such positive results. I tell my friends all about this practice as much as I can! The office has a warm and inviting energy, lots of green plants, and an array of incredible holistic services offered, with affordable prices that can't be beat. Please do yourself a favor and check them out - you will not regret it! read more

Nutritional, Beauty, and Preventative Care I have been provided with both nutritional therapy and skin rejuvenating care by the doctors at Original Health Center for several years. I most appreciate the benefits of the high dose vitamin therapies offered at the Center. I feel rejuvenated and well-cared for during each visit. The doctors there are very knowledgeable and help me to make important health decisions that are holistically sound. I can always rely on Dr ManVy Nguyen to guide me in rebalancing any poorly functioning organs. Overall, I trust the doctors at Original Health Center to offer me holistic care that is aligned with my body's needs and my personal wellness values. Francine Shakir Satisfied Client read more

This place is great. Lina and Dr. Kaila are fantastic and took great care of my fiance and me. We got the Meyers blend with glutathione to help us detox from toxic mold poisoning. They are flexible and took us on short notice. They were also good with getting the IVs in easily. We'll definitely be back. read more

I've been coming here for maybe 2 months or so on a weekly basis for IV Glutathione + Vitamin C push injections. The office environment is serene, yet the staff is very efficient. The service is top notch, from the receptionist/medical assistant to both doctors. They've been very helpful with any medical questions related to the injection. This has been the only thing so far, among many things I've tried, to feeling even marginally better with my Hashimoto Thyroid and fibromyalgia issues. Street parking is easy most of the time and I sometimes park in the residential areas. Hope to have another update as I start to feel better consistently. read more

Great friendly welcoming office. The team is incredible welcoming and knowledgeable. They curated a plan to help increase my energy levels based on lab findings. read more

First visit with Cindy and it was great. She took the time to explain the procedure and made sure I was comfortable during the entire process. A few things to note, it is much better to email her than to call, parking can be a bit challenging so get there early and walk around the neighborhood. Finally, you'd have to create an account on the website and schedule the appointment and you will prepay. So make sure you adhere to any cancellation requirements if you want a refund. I would certainly like to continue these treatments, I only wish Cindy's practice was closer to me. read more

Origin Health Center is a beautiful, clean sanctuary for natural healthcare.I love going there. Dr. Many Vy Nguyen and Dr. Kaila Nguyen are smart, competent, kind, caring, compassionate, communicative, knowledgeable naturopathic physicians. The office manager Lina Ho is warm, welcoming, helpful, bright, attentive, kind, and caring. I have benefited greatly from applying the customized treatment plans I receive based on the information provided through periodic blood tests and consultations. It has been empowering to have such good, self-care guidance regarding nutrition, dietary supplements, hydrotherapy, exercises, and, if indicated, referrals, all serving well-defined treatment goals. I am so thankful for all I have been receiving from Origin Health Center and give these wonderful healthcare providers my wholehearted endorsement. read more

Origin's is great place to get quality treatments for overall well being. It's a very cute, extremely clean place and it's located in a very good area. I haven't gone in a while since the pandemic, but I plan on returning very soon to get Microneedling and PRF injections. I come from San Francisco and it is worth the drive to go to Origin Health in Piedmont! Dr. Man Vy is a God send and is very meticulous with her work, honest, she throughly explains everything including expectations, and she will definitely suggest what will work for you with REAL RESULTS. I Only trust her with my face!!! She suggested to move onto PRF after doing PRP and it's significantly has done wonders with my skin. She has also recommended different IV pushes and other treatments like B-12 shots which I believe does absolute Healing from the inside out. I have done PRF on my scalp & Microneedling as well, because I suffer from Alopecia and that too has helped my hair grow, and it has stayed. I plan bringing my cousin with me. She is amazed to see how my skin has faired even though it has been 2 years since I have had work done. read more

I have been coming here for many many years, staff have always been patient and caring. The doctors have always worked in parallel to help care for my health. I have had B12 shots, which totally have help me with my energy. However, my go to is a large banana bag with a glutathione push and vitamin D shot. I have recommended several of my close friends and family to the center. And they have been so happy with their care. I just love love them!! :) read more

I have received consistent, incredible, lifesaving care from both Dr. Kaila and Dr. MannVy since 2018. When I began to show signs of mystery illnesses, I went from a job as a personal trainer,a mother of two toddlers, a chef, and runner, to practically bedridden, and no immune system-in my mid 20s. When I started IV therapy with Dr Kaila, I was able to function again. Within my first week, I had 3 IVs, as it was the only thing that made me feel better--suddenly I stopped getting norovirus and strep every time I volunteered at my children's co-op preschool. After years of fluid diets for weeks during each flare, I instead would get amazing care from my NDs, and receive a bag of nutrients (that I could finally absorb!) and slippery elm + recipes to coat my belly at home. I could finally eat solid food, after trying every option for years! They regularly helped me take labs for my doctors, and made my life as comfortable as possible, under the circumstances. Even my kids could come in my room to play, and they loved the sweet demeanor and fascinating work from my doctors. My life was changed! In 2020, my new specialists diagnosed my conditions in the "formal" (aka western/insurance-recognized) manner, and I started to get sicker, eventually needing regular, aggressive treatment plans as well. Many of my conditions were extremely serious, very rare, and most doctors couldn't help me, given the lack of knowledge. This is where Dr Mann Vy came in. Dr MannVy became my main ND during the pandemic, and is one of the few reasons I am still alive. Despite my worsening illnesses, she NEVER gave up on me. She would regularly take courses to learn how to treat rare diseases such as mine with IVs, order different IV and injection meds to safely test on me to achieve the best results, and designed treatment plans I could show to IV clinics when I traveled, so that they could treat me according to my conditions at that time. She also treated my legs and feet with PRF (which had constantly been severely injured since child hood-ehlers Danlos Syndrome)--and her work was deemed the best possible option anyone could receive in my condition, spoken by the top Stanford Orthos; and I agree. Dr.MannVy is determined, brave,thoughtful, brilliant, and in a category of excellence that exceeds any other medical professional I've met. Any patient would be so lucky to have her. read more

The doctor was nice but this was a waste of money. I submitted a contact form and never received a response so I called to make an appointment. The " comprehensive health and wellness initial exam " was literally a 15 minute questionnaire that you can complete yourself, blood pressure check and temperature check-and it costs $295.00. I then completed blood work and emailed them with the results...no response. I emailed again and the doctor called to set up a follow up. At that appointment she gave me my " detox plan " which was just a bunch of overpriced supplements. After the detox would be the weight loss plan except I never received any communication them after that. Not very professional. read more

THANK GOD FOR ORIGIN HEALTH CENTER! I go through cycles of losing a ton of hair due to stress. And every time I do, my go to is Origin Health Center for the PRF Hair Restoration therapy. The treatment WORKS in stopping the hair loss almost immediately and in helping my hair grow back. It's so reassuring to know that when hair loss happens (which is so stressful in itself), I have a trusted place I can go to for help. I am so grateful for the kind and friendly staff there. Dr. Man Vy Nguyen is an angel. She makes the injection procedure as easeful as possible. And also gives me great health advice. I also get the B12 shots to regulate my stress and boost my energy level. I want to explore their other wellness services as well, since what I've experienced so far have been incredibly effective and at a price point that I can afford. I am so grateful for that Origin Health Center exists. I feel so taken care of when I'm here. If you need a boost in your hair, skin, or emotional state, you might find what you're looking for here.. read more

I had been dealing with some fatigue and bloating for quite some time before I finally realized that this wasn't normal and something needed to be done. I did not just want to mask the symptoms anymore; I just wanted to get to the bottom of it. That's when I found Origin Health. Dr Kaila was very kind, patient and attentive. After a thorough assessment and blood test results, I found out I had an excess amount of yeast in my body; As, well as some food sensitivities that I was unaware of. Dr Kaila suggested an anti- candida cleanse and IV therapy to complement and assist with energy levels. At first, I didn't think I would be able to stick with the cleanse, it seemed daunting, but I was pleasantly surprised. She gave me some tools to help me stick to the program, and the IV therapy helped with energy levels. A week into the cleanse the bloating was gone, I had lost noticeable weight and my nightly cravings were under control. I felt more energized and vibrant for the next 2 months. I had to put the cleanse on hold for a few weeks late December, early January due to a loss in the family. I had just started the last phase of the cleanse, which heals the GI system. During this time, I went back to my old eating habits, and could immediately feel the unpleasant moodiness, fatigue and bloating. I felt a bit discouraged. Both Dr Kaila and Lina were very sympathetic when I informed them of what was going on. I have restarted the cleanse, and within just a few days many of the symptoms have sub-sided. You truly are what you eat. I'm looking forward to completing all phases of the cleanse this time, and I'll be sure to update this review once I have. Dr Kaila is very knowledgeable, resourceful and insightful. I'm grateful to be under her care and guidance. Lina (at the front desk) is also very kind, helpful and welcoming. I always look forward to my appointments here. If you're looking for a holistic place to heal, Origin is it! read more

Chronic Fatigue - Autoimmune Issues - Hypothyroid I came to Origin Health Center for my chronic fatigue, autoimmune issues like vitiligo and Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism. I can tell you that I did not have the strength to open the door of the clinic on my first visit and after 6 visits I bounce in hopping up and down and smiling. I got the full bag of nutrients, usually called Myer's Cocktail but at Origins they have it listed as Nutritional IV Therapy. Like I said it took 6 visits to start feeling SO MUCH better. I went once a week for 6 weeks and now I will be going once a month. Week 1: You would think that after a full bag of nutrients I would feel something --- more energy, anything ---- no, nothing. Week 2: Still nothing. Week 3: Did I just feel something? Some more energy? Nope. Week 4: Okay, I feel a little something, but got tired right away. Week 5: YES! Week 6: Wooohoooo! Yes amazing. And....finally. I haven't been back for a month and still feel fantastic. Now you also much know that I stopped eating dairy, gluten, sugar, grains, wheat. I do one green juice, no fruit and add superfoods like Chlorella every morning. I am on natural supplements that are approved by Dr. Kaila Nguyen at Origins. Here is my experience with Dr. Kaila Nguyen at Origins Health: I had already seen a previous Functional Medicine doctor before I came in to Origins to get a colonic and Nutritional IV Therapy. Cindy did 2 colonics for me and I highly recommend her. She is very sweet, loving, caring and knowledgeable about all of healing the body from the inside out. Next I saw Dr. Kaila for my IV therapy. I thought Dr. Kaila would be like any doctor and place my IV bag and do other things until the drip was over. Instead she spent the hour with me, reviewing my health concerns and asking me many questions and took notes. She was very interested in what was happening for me. The next 5 times Dr. Kaila did the same thing. She also reviewed my blood tests and made sure my functional medicine doctor prescribed the best supplements for me. Luckily she said they were the correct supplements and she only added one more to the mix. Dr. Kaila is excellent in that she spends the time listening, asking the right questions and helping encourage you to your healing journey. She went above and beyond anything she had to do. I came in with a urinary tract infection one day during IV treatment and she took a urine sample right there to determine if it was a UTI and gave me a tincture that helped ease the infection by the next day. Thank you for your Love Patience and Attentiveness Dr. Kaila and Cindy! I haven't felt this good in years. On the site it is as follows: NUTRITIONAL IV THERAPY Enjoy a fast and effective way of getting the nutrients you need. Intravenous therapy (IV) is a medical treatment by which sterile solutions of vitamins, minerals and other naturally occurring nutritive substances are infused directly into the blood stream. If you have been too ill to eat, have chronic illness or dehydrated, nutritional IV may be the choice for you. It is also beneficial for elderly as well. Drop by for a quick walk-in visit and walk out healthier than before! IV may offer health benefits for you by: Improving the energy level of your cells and tissues Replenishing nutritional deficiencies Increase quality of life read more

I've absolutely loved my experience with Origin Health!! In my experience, the staff and Drs. are there 100% to serve the health and well-being of their patients. They are knowledgable, warm, effective. They have helped me heal through a difficult time, I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a natural approach to healing, or who is specifically interested in the services they offer. I found them through Yelp, and all the reviews I read match my experience. read more

I have come for several IV treatments for healing. Both doctors are so helpful and caring. They make the experience comfortable and make you feel at home. read more

If I could I would give origin health center 10 stars . I have been seen weekly here for the past 3 months and it has truly changed my life. Every week I come in for a b complex injection and a glutathione push. After having blood work and a hair test done at another facility I learned that my b levels and antioxidant levels are significantly low. So the treatments I receive at origin health center, revive me and help me feel like a person again!! Prior to receiving treatments I was extremely fatigued and would constantly be sick. I couldn't sleep and even with sleeping pills, I was still constantly tired. Now I feel great and as another major plus my skin is glowing!!!! My skin has looked the best it's ever had with the glutathione push!! The staff at this location is amazing. Kaila is super sweet and knowledgeable! She knows everything about injections as well as micro pen treatments and prp. Weekly treatments have been very pleasant with her. I would recommend this facility to everyone! I have sent friends here and they love the treatments as well. read more

I went here for a MYERS cocktail with a glutithione push because I was doing an endurance race and dealing with milf and cabfuta issues. I enjoyed Dr. VANDY AND the friendly staff with answering my questions. Many of my friends were interested in what I'm doing because it helps out so many ailments. The IV vitamins really gave me an edge when I raced in elevation in the Tahoe Spartan Beast. Thank you so much ORIGIN health Center. read more

I was excited to contact this place based on the reviews that I've read online. Unfortunately, I didn't make it past the initial phone call. Upon answering, the rep asked what my issues were and while detailing my ailments I heard the ominous sound of a dial tone. Confused as to why someone would hang up on me during a non-adversarial conversation, I called back several times to no avail. I kept getting the machine and am now left to assume that my case was too complex? I'll take it as a sign to avoid this place. I never "called back?" I would never attempt to contact a business after what I experienced? read more

The origin health center is the best natural health care option. I have been going there just over a month and I wish I had discovered them earlier. The facility is welcoming and clean, Dr Kaila has an amazing bedside manner. She truely knows her craft and takes the time to totally explain everything so that you get it. She makes you excited about being healthy and very comfortable about seeing a Dr. I have told everyone I know to get healthy and go to the Origin HealthCenter. Not to mention that the shots Do NOT hurt. I have been getting the B 12 shots and I feel like a new person, not to mention that my waist is shrinking . read more

Origin Health Center - Naturopathic/Holistic Near Me - Oakland, California

I've been struggling to loose weight for the last five years. I've tried doing it myself but nothing seemed to work. Going on diets, going to the gym, but the weight wasn't budging. Two months ago, i went to see Dr. ManVy at Origin Health Center and she ran a whole bunch of labs for me, reviewed my medical records, and gave me a treatment plan to get my health in order and at the same time loose weight (major concern). As of today, i've lost 10 pounds, and 5 inches off my waist. In addition to that, my thyroid hormone is now back to normal level, i have more energy, and feel better overall. I also saw Dr. ManVy for the vampire facial they talked about in Hollywood and i tell you, it's the best thing i have done for my face. I've spent tons of money on skincare products but nothing is as good at that platelet rich plasma facial! It's a 90 min in office procedure, three days for skin to peel and heal, and the fourth day i had a new set of skin. I highly recommend this clinic! Come see any of the doctors there for any of your medical needs, they have answers!!! Oh I forgot to mention, Dr. ManVy also got my blood glucose level to be normal again! I was pre-diabetic. I couldn't be more happy!! read more

Origin Health Center - B12 shots at origin health center - Naturopathic/Holistic Near Me - Oakland, California

Dr. Nguyen is the best! She is a bay area native. Her daughters are so cute. I got my b12 shots here and she fixed my ankle with the prolotherapy (prp.) I am a vegetarian and she recommended me to get my shots. I had a nasty fall in Norway and I can finally stop elevating my left leg at night. It was quick and she was quite informative. She provides other hollistic treatments. I love the fact that she is bilingual. I will take my mother here soon. I usually feel filthy in clinics but it was clean. They have plenty of air purifiers. Parking wasn't too bad. There are meters and residential parking near by. I highly recommend this place. read more

I have always been afraid of needles. I avoid getting shots everywhere I go. However, the doctors at Origin Health Center is by far the most skillful I've ever seen. I got a B12 shot and got my blood work done in one go, and I barely felt a thing! Highly recommend Origin! read more

Not many health centers have doctors who actually take their time to get to know the patients and help them with any health concerns that they have. Origin Health Center certainly has those type of compassionate doctors who care about their patients like that. Once you step in the clinic, the place is very serene, peaceful and very clean. It has beautiful decors and by far the best clinic I ever been to. I love their choice of colors that are very smoothing in the eyes. Their service and staff are exceptional and very attentive when you walked in. Dr. Kaila and Dr. ManVy are by far one of amazing doctors that I encounter who actually want to make their patients to live a healthier lives by finding the best possible solutions for their health concerns. They are very knowledgeable, kind, compassionate, caring, passionate and actually LOVE what they do. It is very rare to find a doctor with all those traits these days. We need more practitioners like them. I highly recommend this health center to anyone who wants excellence health care from caring doctors. read more
