(Long post warning) I've been seeing Dr. Hung since July 2019. I came to prepare myself for…read morepregnancy. I was so happy and excited at first when I got pregnant in November 2019 thinking Dr. Hung's herbs and advice really helped. However, I had a miscarriage in December 2019, after enjoying the good news of being a mom for just a little more than a week or so. I was devastated, thinking I must have done something wrong. Did I not sleep enough? Was I too anxious? Is it because my body wasn't ready? Or maybe it was the two sips of coffee that I accidentally drank. Dr. Hung tried to help save my baby with his herbs but it didn't work, which this was no one to blame for sure. I thought, maybe this just wasn't meant to be. Dr Hung had given me treatment with herbs to help my body recover from the lost, which restored my energy and body quickly. Shortly after there comes the pandemic. While I am still taking the herbs to prepare for my next pregnancy, we continued meeting through telehealth. During those 2 months of treatment online, my body had gotten worse. My heart beat has become much faster and I will easily faint. Dr Hung said it was probably due to stress and my body not having enough blood, so he adjusted the herbs. I also decided to visit him in person again as I thought maybe his treatment decisions would be more accurate if he can feel my pulse. A few months after, we've been trying to conceive but still have not succeed. I even took my husband with me to see Dr. Hung to get prepared. In October, Dr Hung told us we can stop taking the herbs and try to conceive (Officially). That's when I realized my heart rate has drastically increased even while resting. I would faint very easily and I have lost a lot of weight. I texted Dr Hung about my situation and he told me to go back to him if I don't get pregnant. With a rising concern of my health, I decided to consult my family doctor regarding my situation. After the blood test, I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, which I have no idea I had it prior to this check up. I was disappointed because Dr. Hung wasn't able to detect such issues until I did my blood test. But I still had a little faith in him as he rest assured that Chinese medicine can help with my condition. Constantly reminding me of his credentials and 30 years of experience, he said he can use Chinese herbs to help me and it would be better than taking western meds due to the known and unknown side effects that may even affect my next pregnancy. I asked him if taking the Chinese herbs would affect my thyroid going from hyper to hypo like what the western medicine do, and Dr. Hung said it will not because Chinese herbs will balance the values, unlike western medicine. One month into taking the Chinese herbs, my condition has improved but it also went into the other end of extreme. I became super tired all the time, and also gaining weight. My face would look super puff. I consulted Dr Hung and he said not to worry because the weather is changing and it is getting colder. It is normal to feel sleepy, tired, and feel swollen a little bit. A week later that appointment I took another blood test, before my appointment to the specialist. It was found that not only that I no longer have hyperthyroidism, but I went to the next extreme of being hypothyroidism. The TSH value was extremely high. I was so upset and disappointed with the result. After speaking to Dr. Hung, his explanation was "this proves my meds are super effective!". He explained how different people may have a different reaction to the medications, but in general his meds are effective. He reminded me again his credentials and experience with both Chinese and western medicine. But he refused to acknowledge his misjudgment on my situation, and his incompetence in listening to my concerns with my body even I've told him how I felt. He also went back and refuted what he said about the herbs wouldn't cause such situation by reasoning with how each body reacts differently. He also refused to let me know what are the ingredients in his medication which my specialist would love to know what's in my body and to make the right judgment for my treatment, saying this raises copyright issue. While I truly believe Chinese medicines has its own benefits and I am still a true believer in it, I would like to summarize by saying there are things Chinese medicine can't substitute. A good solid blood test is one for sure, which I think Dr hung would agree himself too. But on top of that, while Chinese herbs can definitely help in many ways, it can also masks the symptoms of what truly lies beneath your body. Do be aware that you won't get to know what you're actually eating and putting inside your body unless Dr Hung would graciously let you know the ingredients. I hope people who are reading this will be aware of the risks and make the right decisions for themselves, especially for people who have similar situation as me.

Dr. Yeh is a hidden gem in Orange County. When deciding to try him, I was a bit concerned because…read morethere were so few reviews. But I have been seeing him once a week for about five months now and I couldn't be more satisfied. Dr. Yeh, originally from Taiwan, maintains his office all by himself. He has no assistant or receptionist. Sometimes this means he is a bit pressed for time, but he is incredibly focused and efficient. He is also careful to give first time patients sufficient time to discuss their problem. He also leaves the needles in for about 40 minutes, which is much longer (and therefore more effective) than other doctors in the area. As soon as I met him, I knew he was someone I could trust. He is friendly and professional. You can tell his career is a labor of love. He is in medicine to help people. I went to see him because I was having strange symptoms that western doctors couldn't diagnose. I suspected female hormone issues related to my age, but nothing appeared in blood tests. For about three months, every ten days or so, I was getting a low fever, anxiety and horrible low back pain that lasted about a half day and all night. It was completely debilitating. After seeing Doctor Yeh, who did indeed diagnose it as hormone related, these symptoms almost completely went away. The really awful symptoms stopped completely. He has helped me with other issues as well. I had a stiff and sore neck for months that I couldn't fix on my own no matter how much stretching I did. I didn't mention the problem to him, but he mentioned it after checking my pulse. He cracked my neck on 3 or 4 visits and this pain completely went away and hasn't returned. Later, he also added a short treatment for my stress levels. Once he inserts the needles, I can almost immediately feel myself relax. By the end of the treatment, I even feel more optimistic about life! Since he Dr. Yeh is in my insurance network, I only have to pay $25 copay per visit. Sometimes acupuncture takes longer than western medicine. Patience is required. But if you trust Dr. Yeh and follow his advice, I think you will be happy with the results. I have gone to a lot of Chinese medicine doctors over the years and Dr. Yeh is one of the best.

After just one treatment, I was able to sleep on my right side again--the side affected by shingles--which I hadn't been able to do due to pain. My pain level dropped significantly. Please remember that everyone has a different response to the treatment, my body just happened to respond quickly in my opinion. Dr. Fu is very professional, knowledgeable, and attentive. My primary doctor mentioned that painkillers could help but warned they are highly addictive, so I decided to look for alternative treatment options. I'm so glad I found Dr. Fu. Although the practice does not accept insurance, the care and results are absolutely worth it. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking effective alternative medical care, especially for chronic pain.

This year, I had a severe eczema flare up that didn't respond well to the typical steroid treatment that dermatologists tend to prescribe (both oral and topical). I knew I had to go back to Dr. Fu! He prescribed some herbal medicine and within 3 sessions of this acupuncture + herbal medicine combo, my flare up calmed down by a lot. I will be sure to continue my treatments and herbal medicine prescriptions. From my experience, I can see why folks might describe Eastern Medicine and acupuncture are "slower" treatments, but the main benefit is that you're getting to the root of the issue, rather than just slapping a bandaid on your pain or discomfort. It's an investment, but your health is worth it! Dr. Fu's office will offer you packages with multiple sessions, which makes sense, given that you will need to be diligent about attending your sessions (and taking any prescribed medication) if you want to see good results. Thank you, Dr. Fu, for your expertise and kindness!

There are thousands of acupuncture points across the human body. I am amazed at the versatility, efficiency, and effectiveness of my first-ever holistic and Oriental Medicine/TCM experience.

I felt relief, increased energy, and calmness after the first acupuncture session. Each subsequent session brought cumulative improvement. I believe acupuncture is a key component of a long-term health care and maintenance plan. Dr. Shin has also been advising on managing other aspects of health. I strive to improve on providing the doctor with feedback as precise as possible on my healing journey. Further appreciation of Oriental Medicine/TCM enhances my ability to take better care of my health, and that of the many around me.
