Review №1

I recently went to Dr. Liu for treatment. She is very nice, personable and available on call when needed. My visit with her was for Nutrition Response Testing. I was tested for negative food allergies before including gluten .Based on her evaluation she recommended herbs and supplements that caused me to have severe reaction resulting in nausea and vomiting along with hives on my hands and swelling of the mouth. I vomited for 4 hours straight along with severe abdominal cramps. I was on the supplements for less then 48 hours following only visit the prior day. I expressed during my visit prior to purchasing the supplements that I had concerns about sensitivities to some of the ingredients. I was assured that based on her testing there was no cause for concern and that to take half the dosage to be safe.Overall treatment was $400. $55 per bottle which is not abnormal for a specialty brands that sells directly to doctors. Dr. Liu did reach out to me to talk with me and described my symptoms as apart of a detox. She did return my calls and listen to me when I explained to her the adverse reaction I was having with the supplements she prescribed. When I spoke to a secondary source they indicated this sounded more as though an allergic reaction vs reaction to detox as Dr. Liu described. I guess we will never know for certain.Dr. Liu encouraged me to stop the medications and to continue in a few days and possibly try a lower dosage. I expressed I would not be continuing this treatment. I could not afford another severe reaction. I really wish that Dr. Liu would have explained some of the risk or possible side effects prior to me starting her treatment so I could have made an informed decision on rather the risk outweighed the benefits of the treatment. I missed work and had to stay in bed. She is a nice person and this has been a learning experience for me.Sometimes reading reviews is not always enough to help make an informed decision about a person’s treatment. I sincerely hope that Dr. Liu does a better job informing patience of the side effects and possible interactions with her products. More research should be done at her side to ensure she properly informs the patient of the risk. She is definitely a nice person and I hope she continues to grow and learn more in her research so that her patients can feel at ease.

I went in as a first time patient for an acupuncture treatment. Dr. Liu is nice but talks waay too fast! She is not a good listener - which was rather disappointing. Very low EQ.I told her that I came in for neck, shoulder and lower back pain but didn’t pay attention to the lower back and had to remind her as she was about to leave the room after needling me.The upselling was waay too much too! Barely giving me a chance to listen and understand what it is I am actually going to be doing and it’s cost implications. I had to ask several times how much.I don’t doubt that the treatments she is offering are good, but she also doesn’t mention that it will be an extra cost! $35 for this, $85 for that!I even had to ask her for literature so I can understand what she is trying to recommend. She asked me to just go to the next room and so she can start but I hadn’t even made up my mind yet! Too much! Too too much!Dr. Liu, be patient especially with your new patients. You are not running a nail salon that upsells $5 to put glitter on nails!I have never had an eastern medicine treatment centre feel so commercial like I am in a mall!No doubt she is talented but needs to work on her listening skills, EQ and insensitive upselling

I came in originally for a soft tissue injury to my foot . conventional medicine was only concerned with time ( which i didn’t have ) and pain killers ( i didn’t want ) . i once tried acupuncture years ago for water on the knee so was familiar with the practice and was willing to see if acupuncture could help my body help its self . A Word of mouth referral came to me suggesting accuwellness . Dr liu using acupuncture and a regiment of supplements had me back on my feet / foot in no time and had my foot Dr and MRi tech baffled as to how i recovered so fast . i say ancient chineese secret but this secret won’t last long because Dr. liu is the real deal . side note i went recently for a maintenance drop in and tried a new machine she has . AMAZING !! like something from the future . a pulse machine that stimulates your entire body or origin of injury and you get immediate relief. if this were available when i had my foot issue would have done this everyday . she can explain better then i what and how it works i only care about the results . EXCELLENT ! Thank you Dr. liu

Highly recommended! Visiting Atlanta and chanced upon Dr. Liu because her office was near the hotel I was staying in. She is highly qualified, has excellent bedside manners and is very experienced. (team acupuncturist for the Olympics, guest speaker in Emory, GA State and was interviewed by CNN). She is simply top-notch!

I was recovering from breast cancer surgery and taking chemotherapy treatments when I first started acupuncture. Later I tried Nutrition Response Testing to help me rid my body of the toxins from chemo. I was having all sorts of side effects and low energy, not sleeping well, and generally not feeling great.My improvements have been great. While having chemo, my blood counts were perfect and my hair started growing back even before chemo treatments were completed. The nutrition supplements have eliminated the dark circles under my eyes. My energy and neuropathy are improving. My blood sugar improved from 114 to 100 at my last checkup. The pulmonary nodules (benign) on my lungs are gone. My entire outlook and attitude has improved.

I had no feeling in lower legs and feet. My feet were swollen, and it was hard to feel anything. It was hard to walk, and I easily bumped into things.Now, I can feel heat on my feet and it is easier to manuever, and I can feel the bottom/inside of my shoes.

I was experiencing anxiety, shortness of breath, and a feeling of being overwhelmed.Now, In just the first session, I felt more clarity and a sense of release of my tension, felt more positive, and a weight had been lifted off of me throughout the day. I was more focused and had energy to do tasks that I have kept putting off. My eating habits adjusted with my overall feelling of wellness. I just feet normal again.

It is very fundamental that you ought to have the capacity to confide in the individual who is treating you. You would see that AcuWellness Atlanta assuredly procures that trust immediately. And afterward, keeps on keeping it that way! AcuWellness Atlanta is exceptionally fastidious about understanding the condition he is managing, in a patient.He tracks the enhancement and alters the treatment whenever required and is extremely transparent in what he recommends and gives a clarification to any inquiries or concerns you may have, with an exceptionally receptive outlook. It will be extremely clear to you that he is completely keen on furnishing the most ideal outcomes with his treatment. I have had serious medical issues since a long while and I had attempted various treatments and diverse sorts of prescriptions with no enhancement. Thus, I was clearly somewhat distrustful first and foremost when I chose to attempt needle therapy, however I resulted in these present circumstances area since I saw great surveys on the web. AcuWellness Atlanta was extremely fair in his methodology since the simple start and had disclosed to me that, thinking about my circumstance, however it may take some time, we would in the end have the capacity to figure out how to bring my wellbeing under control (You need to comprehend that I had a long-standing and various medical problems). I could clearly observe that, in each session I had with him, he was trying to take input on my present wellbeing condition to choose if the treatment required any adjustment. He used to fastidiously think about my reaction to the medications to choose the subsequent stages.Today I can easily say that he has made an entire devotee out of me. In a limited ability to focus time in the treatment than I had sought after, I could see impressive enhancement. I have never had a vastly improved wellbeing in the previous 6 years as I have now and that goes to say a LOT regarding AcuWellness Atlanta and his center, assurance and an authentic enthusiasm for giving the best treatment to his patients. On the off chance that you are searching for needle therapy as your preferred treatment, this is unquestionably the place you should endeavor to give yourself the most obvious opportunity!

I came in with Bella palay The left side of my face was paralyzed. I was unable to blink. Thanks to Dr Lius excellent treatment, I am able to close my eye, I am able to drive k without drooling and the feeling is coming back. Dr Lius excellent understanding of the body is comforting and a welcome balm at a time when conventional medicine has let us down.

Do not take yourself or your child here unless you would like to spend over $700 within 2 office visits. My daughter, in college, consulted the office’s “nutritionist” (I use that term very loosely considering she was not given any nutrition advice other than a pamphlet describing the perils of sugar) and was verbally accosted by the Doctor of Accupuncture (no, not of Nutrition) who refused to let her entertain a phone call with her mother and I during the appointment until my daughter threatened to walk out, in tears. She now sees another nutritionist, we pay more than 50% less, and she actually gets nutrition advice! Do not buy into this practice! No one should pay this much for this “service”, let alone for supplements that cost upwards of $50 per bottle each. I was not encouraged to buy an acupuncture package, so I cannot speak to what the practioner seems to be more trained for. But after hearing of what my daughter went through, I will not let her go near her that establishment again.

I bought an 11 session acupuncture package two years ago. I used 5 of them and moved to Denver so I was unable to use them all at once. Today I went back into the office, as I live in Atlanta again and ONLY wanted to receive the remaining acupuncture sessions I had already payed for. I was given a cold laser treatment ($45) without notice of the extra cost which I was upset about on top of being advised to purchase 4 supplements totaling over $200. On top of all this a acupuncture needle was left in my chest and popped out during check out. I think the Dr. does know what she is doing but I also think the up-selling is out of control. This is the most expensive practice I have ever seen and I am including aesthetic practices as well. If you have a couple grand to throw around this place is for you.

I had painful, aching joints and off and on constipation as-well-as a bloating stomach.​Now my joints are less painful and I hardly have any pain or soreness. I have lost 10 pounds since coming to Li Liu. She had me cut back on all the fruit I was consuming.

I first came to see Dr. Liu on the recommendation of a friend who had seen how much my health was starting to suffer. After one visit I could appreciate not only Dr. Lius genuine concern, attention, knowledge, and enthusiasm for diagnosing what things were wrong with me, but also her support in helping me get better.Dr. Liu has helped focus on the issues my body was having with acupuncture and its surprising how good it feels - and shes helped me target a nutritional program that has improved my energy and my overall health so much that I feel like a whole different and a much better version of myself.I just feel better everyday, and I recommend her to all my friends and family.Thanks, Dr. Liu!
