Patients' testimonials:

Thank you Dr. Wu

I walked into your office 4 weeks ago looking for help, the natural way for me and my husband. Both of us were congested with mucus in our head and chest, my husband had been suffering for weeks, he had gone to a medical doctor for some  antibiotic and medicines and still he was feeling bad. We were on our way back to the Medical doctor at the time we look over and saw your sign and decided to stop and see if you would see us and you were more than happy to take us in with no appointment, you listen to our sickness and assured us you could help. I went first and after we talked about my problems you found out I had problems with my stomach and I did, my stomach would hurt all the time, you ask if I had ever had acupuncture, (No I did not) and I wouldn't even think of being stuck with pin but it was something about you Dr. Wu that I trusted and so I agreed. you put a couple of pins in my legs and all my pain went away just that fast. I was amazed so I started telling you about the surgery I had that was causing discomforts in my neck and back, you said ( I'll fix for you) and you put pins in my neck and back, it feel so good to not have pain and for it to go away so fast with no medicine. I am really impressed with acupuncture. I I will continue this treatment the rest of my life.

Now for the mucus my husband and I (had), you gave us a combination of herbs and now we are mucus free and full of energy. My husband no longer snore and both of us get good night sleep.

Thank you for my life back I'm so glad we stopped by.                                                   Chriszetta and Robert

Dear Dr. Wu: 

I want to thank you for  your recent treatment.  In February 2010 I was directed to an endocrinologist by my primary physician who had determined that my adrenal glands had “all but shut down”.  In early December I had 7 pain injections in my lower back.  For three months I felt terrible.  I had lost 25 lbs, had no energy and “failed to thrive”.  My endocrinologist did further testing and confirmed that my adrenal glands were barely functioning.  Rather than put me on steroid medication (which is the treatment for adrenal insufficiency) my endocrinologist wanted to wait one more month to be sure my adrenals were not coming back  before committing me to a life of medications with serious side effects.

Rather than do nothing, and wait a month I scheduled an appointment with you.  I am very glad that I went in to see you for acupuncture and herb treatment.  I started to feel better within days of my first treatment.  After two weeks I was fairly certain my adrenals were coming back.  I met with the physician assistant at my endocrinologist’s office for my re-testing on March 5.  I told her I was feeling much better and felt that my adrenals had come back.  She was extremely skeptical and stated that I had really failed the previous test and it was unlikely my adrenals would return.

On March 15^th I met with my doctor and received excellent news!  My adrenal function had improved considerably and it appears that I will not have to go on medication!  I do not go back for another appointment for two months.

Thank you Dr. Wu!  I appreciate your kindness and care.  I am certain that my returning health is due to your treatment.  I will be in again soon for a “touchup” .

P.S. 

I don’t think I ever thanked you for your treatment to stop smoking.  I saw you in January 2009 after being a smoker for 25 years.  I had tried every available means to quit including zyban, chantix and support programs from MD Anderson.  Nothing seemed to work for me.  Although I could quit for a short time, I always returned to my old, nasty habit.  After my third visit to you for acupuncture and herb treatment I became smoke-free.  I didn’t experience the horrible withdrawls that I had in the past.  In fact it was quite easy thanks to you.  I have been smoke free for over 16 months.  This has made such a change in my health and attitude.  Thank you again!

Sincerely,

Steve S.

To Whom it may concern:

Background:

 I was diagnose Hepatitis C type 3a (HCV-3a) in or around May of 2007.  I discovered the HCV-3a infection by accident.  I had pain in my left elbow (I am right handed) and I went to the doctor for the first time in 3 years, a new doctor in fact, because I had recently moved to Houston.  The doctor diagnosed my arm as Tennis Elbow (tendinitis).  I also asked for a complete physical, since I had not visited a doctor in some time.  The doctor included blood work in my physical.  The lab results for the blood work showed abnormally high levels of ALT and AST indicating potential liver problems.  I was referred to a gastroenterologist.  He checked me for HCV and I came back positive for the 3a genotype.  Thus began my fight with HCV-3a.  My wife and I began to research our best options to overcome the disease.  Along the way, we came to understand that the HCV-3a is one matter - which has a medical remedy - its potential side effect psoriasis of the liver - is another matter - and one for which no medical treatment exists.    We decided it was important to treat both the psoriasis by focusing on liver health, while at the same time fighting the HCV-3a.  We formulated the strategy to first as quickly as possible, do all we could to improve my livers health and second begin the treatment to eradicate the HCV-3a.  We felt having a healthy liver would be advantageous in the fight against HCV-3a.  We sought out the best experts we could find in both and it was in that search that we discovered Dr. Wu.

 How Dr. Wu Helped me:

 Dr Wu, guided me through my entire HCV-3a treatment.  I started with him before selecting the Hepatologist who administered my Pegasys-Ribaviran program.   My wife and I were impressed with Dr. Wu because of his knowledge of the treatments for HCV and his knowledge of the treatments for the side effects of the Pagasys program.  Dr. Wu recommended a program to first treat liver health, then when the Pagasys program began, a treatment to help me overcome the side effect of fatigue.  With the herb program, I saw immediate and tangible positive effects on my AST and ALT levels.  At the end of June 2007 just before I began the herb program, my ALT was 108.  After one month on the herbs, every day, three times a day, and acupuncture weekly, my ALT was 49.  I never had felt any effects of the HCV-3a and it was an accident that it was discovered, so I can't say I felt better, but I can say, that I felt more confident in my ability to fight the disease and the acupuncture session helped me to focus - on healing.  My medical doctor prescribed a 12 month regimen of Pegasys instead of the 6 month that is normal for HCV-3a, because the chances of being non-detectable post treatment are significantly increase with the longer duration treatment.  When I began the treatment, Dr. Wu changed my herb prescription to help combat fatigue.  I am a consultant and traveled for work, almost weekly, for the entire period of my treatment.  I travelled coast to coast in the U.S. for work and for vacation to Europe and South America.   During my treatment I completed a very difficult training program and was promoted.  Fatigue was a problem, but I was able to overcome it, thanks to the herbs and acupuncture from Dr. Wu.  I was clear of the virus within two weeks of the start of the Pegasys program - I attribute this in no small part to having prepared my liver, with Dr. Wu's help before the treatment.  My ALT also normalized during the treatment and is now stable.

 Dr. Wu's knowledge and treatment were an essential part of my clearing of HCV-3a and the normalization of my liver functions, I highly recommend him to any one facing similar circumstances.

S. B. Acupuncture helped the IVF and gives me two lovely children.

I have infertility problems for over 10 years.  I was hospitalized for endometriosis and fibroids with for different surgeries.  My uterus was very scarred and I had an endorcrine disorder. With years of trying to get pregnant I was encouraged to do In Vitro.  My hormone levels would not get to the proper levels. The only way the IVF would work is if I added alternative medicine.  I decided to try acupuncture.  I used acupuncture during my IVF cycle for both pregnancies and it allowed the hormone levels to be in range for doctor specifications.  It also helped blood flow for implantation of the eggs.  I have 2 children now, a boy and girl and never been happier in my life to accomplish the biggest goal I ever dreamed.  My last child is 8 weeks old born on 8-22-07.  Thank you Acupuncturist Chiang for all your help.

W. S. Acupuncture relieved my anxiety in one week!

About a year ago I was diagnosed with “Stress Disorder”.  With a year of searching for cure combination with modern medicine, nothing seemed to work.  Not long ago friends of mine told me about seeing acupuncturist.  Of course I am skeptic but after searching the internet and reading the Chinese medicine I have told myself that I got nothing to lose. With one treatment of acupuncture and herbs, my anxiety and stress disorder symptoms are almost completely vanished.  I couldn’t believe the astonishing result.  Now I enjoyed the good night sleep, good mood with energetic condition, no confusion and no negative emotions.  Acupuncture definitely benefits me a great deal.  Thank you, Jannie Chiang.
