Testimonials

~ S.A., Sunnyvale

My husband and I had been trying for years to get pregnant. My mom, a long-time patient of Annie’s, mentioned our struggles and Annie recommended I come see her. After discussing my general health and symptoms with Annie, she suggested I get tested for PCOS. Once it was confirmed I had PCOS, Annie put together a plan of action which not only included acupuncture, but also herbal supplements as well as diet and lifestyle changes. Every visit Annie continued to provide me with research around PCOS and fertility. After six months of treatment with Annie I became pregnant! Throughout my pregnancy, I continued to see Annie to relieve pregnancy related symptoms which included migraines and your everyday aches and pains. Even before I was pregnant, I always looked forward to my appointments, as I would always leave feeling refreshed and better than before. Aside from Annie’s wealth of knowledge and utmost professionalism, she makes you feel like family which is very comforting during infertility struggles and everyday stresses of life.

I am honored to write in support of the amazing work Annie Wang L. Ac. has done with me for over 7 years. As a Stanford trained physician, Traditional Chinese Medicine was a bit hard to accept for me at first. But the results were undeniable, as her weekly treatments gave me almost immediate symptomatic relief from the consequences of a lifetime of athletic indiscretions. And even more subtly, over the long haul, I realized gains in energy level, mental function, general sense of well-being, and what my orthopedic surgeons have described as remarkably quick healing from major surgeries to repair worn-out joints. I can recommend her without reservation, and regard my weekly treatments as a cornerstone of on-going health maintenance.
