Dr Victor Cheng was very meticulous in diagnosing my conditions. This was my first acupuncture ever. The moment he left me with the needles I slept like a baby and woke up much refreshed. I would highly recommend the Dr and Acupuncture treatment.

I have been looking for a good Chinese doctor for a long time that speaks my language and understands my conditions. His manner and his kindness are is highly reassuring. He gave me accurate diagnoses and medicine that help me very much. I also had acupuncture and all service has been excellent. I feel very lucky to have found Doctor Cheng and I appreciate having his help very much.

The very first time that I met Dr.Cheng and I described my conditions, he was very honest and said your condition is very complicated and it takes sometimes to heal you. Dr.Cheng is a very caring, concerned,and kind doctor. I saw a lot of different doctors in the past. named alternative doctors,and different kind of therapists.None of them were able to help me until I met Dr.Cheng. He is an excellent doctor. I highly recommend him to every body. I am a lot better since I have been Dr.Cheng patient. I will continue seeing him until I get well.

Super awesome doctors. Both Drs. Kim and Cheng are the best doctors in the region. I would highly recommend them, and you wont regret visiting them. They are highly qualified with exceptional credentials. Both had extensive training for six years at Shanghai University of TCM - which is one of the best in all of Asia.

This review is long overdue. I have been seeing Victor since 2014 with various medical issues. While western doctors fails to make me feel better nor can they give me an explanation, Victor magically make me feel better everytime with his herbs/acupuncture techniques.What sets Victor apart is he knows both Chinese and western medicine very well. Bases on the syndromes and western diagnosis(blood test etc) he is able to use Chinese medicine to treat the root cause of the condition, thus eliminating the issue for me once and for all.He is also very innovative and experimental in his approach. When one approach does not work as effectively, he is willing to try different things and optimize the results.I am very happy to find Victor in the bay area! I would highly recommend Victor to anyone who is looking for a TCM doctor!

I have been going to Dr. Victor for about 2 months, and am very happy with all of my treatments. I have seen great improvements in both sleep quality and digestion. Highly recommended!

SCAM - DO NOT TRUSTDespite the good reviews, my experience with Victor in the San Jose office has been a waste of time, money, and energy. I have been seeing acupuncturists for approximately 15 years now and Victor has been the first to yield 0 results and run business in a silly and ridiculous manner.Initially, Victor confidently made a diagnosis and told me 2-3 weeks should relieve my pain. I went diligently and stuck with the herbal tea as directed, but after a couple weeks of no improvement, Victor started asking if I had gotten blood work, CT scans, and MRIs done (all of which I have done), as if to imply he couldnt address any conditions that were actual medical conditions identified by Western medicine. His confidence in the diagnosis seemed to grow weak.About a month in, I was still not feeling better, to which he said this is harder than I thought. It will take 2-3 more months of treatment... up to 800% longer than his original estimate!! Still, I gave him the benefit of the doubt and continued to follow his direction.About two months into the treatment, today, I went in for a treatment and let him know that despite not having an appointment in two weeks and not taking the herbal tea, I felt better until a few days ago. His response was thats improbable. I also let him know that I had a new symptom, to which he FORCED me to sign a waiver to exclude him from liability. This is not how acupuncture works - acupuncture takes into your situation as a whole as opposed to treating individual symptoms.I went through my final appointment, to which Victor disregarded techniques such as wiping down areas with isopropyl alcohol prior to setting the needles. He also had no regard for properly setting the needles, sending jarring pain down body as he placed each needle - I have never felt such pain receiving acupuncture before. I do believe that Victor is not professional in his practice.TL;DRThere has not been any improvement to my condition after two months, and I am out over $1,300

I highly recommend Dr. Cheng & Dr. Kim and cannot say enough good things about their treatments.For years, my GF and I didnt have any luck finding a Doctor that made us both comfortable in treatments and understanding our symptoms.I received a referral from a friend and made an appointment with Dr. Cheng. It was eye opening!!!He is attentive, open-minded, and open to explain the reasons behind his diagnosis. Made us understand the reasoning of our illness and learn ways to be healthy.Bottom line, if you are considering or looking for traditional Chinese medicine doctor, I strongly recommend that Dr. Cheng & Dr. Kim be your first stop.

I have been with Victor for over 2 years now. He helped me with the conception, and helped my husband with the fatty liver, and now our toddler is seeing Victor to improve her solid eating and bowe movement. With his knowledge in both western and traditional medicine, Victor is able to explain and coordinate with our physician to maximize the treatment affect.

Doctor Cheng treated me with acupuncture for problems I had with my feet due to an accident. In a short time, they had improved tremendously. Encouraged by the results, I stayed under Dr. Chengs care for other ailments while we were in California. I was very happy with the results and wish I could continue to be under his care.

The best acupuncturist Ive ever been treated by!Ive been going to acupuncturist for over 20 years now, experiencing the work of more than 10 different specialists. Victor Cheng and Sewon Kim are very special. They give me full confidence in their knowledge of the human body - what my ailments and injuries are and how to treat them.6 weeks ago I was in a bicycle accident and broke my collar bone. I also caused severe damage to my shoulder and upper arm. I immediately began acupuncture and physical therapy with Victor Cheng. I was told by my Kaiser doctors that I should expect 8-12 weeks recovery with 4-6 months of physical therapy after that. Well, its been 6 weeks now and I am at 80% mobility and feel improvement every day. Victor and Sewons treatments have produced incredible results AND WITHOUT MEDICATION.Victor has also prescribed Chinese herbs for my digestion and overall body balance. I was never big on herbal remedies, but I am now a believer and feeling healthier than ever. THANK YOU Victor Cheng!

Dr. Chen has helped me with so many health issues from low energy to back pain from scolosis. The fact that I drive 50 miles for office visits is a testament to his professional skills. In addition, he does take qualifying insurances for accupunture treatments. I highly recommend Victor Chens Accupunture Office.

Review №17

Ive been working with Western allopathic physicians for over two years for a severe GI condition stemming from a gut parasite infection. Treatments included a very strong and extremely expensive anti-parasitic prescription followed by years of doctor-recommended pre-and pro-biotics, and dietary restrictions...all this was unsuccessful, and left me suffering daily. Although I had no previous experience with TCM treatments, I wanted to give this modality a try, and Dr. Cheng came highly recommended by a trusted family member (whos 40+ year career was as a nurse in allopathic medicine). My own background included a Masters degree in a science-based field, and over 20 years as a research associate for the pharmaceutical industry; I was hopeful for a positive outcome, but by no means convinced I would see believable or significant results. After only a few months of TCM treatments by Dr. Cheng (acupuncture and herbal remedies), my long-standing GI issues began to noticeably shift toward normalcy. Continued use of the medicinal herbal teas created by Dr. Cheng, and monthly acupuncture treatments, resulted in steady improvement of my GI symptoms, and now my GI problems have nearly completely resolved. No magic, no placebo...just stable, positive results. I will continue to seek Dr. Chengs advice and treatment for other medical concerns as they arise (I live over 150 miles away from his offices). I highly recommend Dr. Cheng, and am grateful for his kind and intelligent healing skills!

I have been seeing Dr Cheng on and off since the beginning of 2018 for issues like dry eyes, dizziness, headache, back pain, high bp, etc. , all the symptoms of an aging body. Dr Cheng is detailed in asking questions, paying attention to my complaints, and after a few acupuncture and herb med sessions, I usually feel better. I found that he is also honest in his opinions and practice. Now I go to see him every few months for health maintenance.

I am very fortunate to have personally experienced the healing power of Chinese medicine. My story is long. I will try to make it as short as possible.After I graduated with a degree in business administration, and a difficult time looking for a good job, I became obsessed with my career. What is the point of all these work if I cannot advance in my career? To impress my boss, I easily work twelve hours a day. Even on Saturdays and Sundays. Sometime I have to wake up to take oversea calls. It was rare that I get more than three hours of continuos sleep a night.Gradually I developed pains throughout my body. I was always very tired and cannot keep my focus. I wanted to be a good soldier so I said nothing to anyone. However, when I had two unintended pregnancies and miscarriage, it finally became very clear that my body cannot handle the stress anymore. I went to my regular doctors but there is very little they can do. There is even less they can explain. What worried me the most was that I am afraid I cannot have children in the future.A friend of mine at work recommended Dr. Cheng and Dr. Kim highly so I decided to give them a try. From them, I learned the concept of deficiencies and the vital substances. They explained to me that I have depleted my bodys reserve, therefore I cannot nourish my body and my babies. So I received a series of acupuncture and herbal treatment. The herbs were unbearable. However, gradually I noticed that I have more energy. I was able to focus and be productive.About two months later, I became pregnant again. I was extremely worried that I would lost it again. But Dr. Cheng and Dr. Kims treatment gave me so much more energy, I was confident. With their help, I successfully gave birth to my baby boy. I was ecstatic. However, the pressure of taking care of my baby was overwhelming. I began to feel ill again and I was not producing enough milk. I went back to Dr. Cheng and Dr. Kim. With their treatments, I was able to survive the first three months of postpartum.I cannot express my gratitude towards Dr. Cheng and Dr. Kim. Everyday when I look at my child, I thank them for their amazing ability to heal.

DR. Cheng not only did an excellent job treating my problem, he also offered health tips and exercise that I should do to prevent problems from happening again. He is one of the best among my western and Chinese Medicine doctors combined.

Review №23

If you never been treated with Traditional Chinese medicine before you should definitely give Dr. Cheng and Dr. Kim a try because they are not only very knowledgeable with Eastern medical treatment but also Western medical treatment as well. I know there are many Doctors that practice Chinese medicine but it is very important to find a doctor that really knows what they are doing. This is why I highly recommend this place for treatments!!!-Both Dr. Kim and Dr. Cheng are very professional and caring people and they are willing to listen to your concerns about your illness (unlike many doctors out there that simply dont have patients at all) and very patiently explains your symptoms and the treatment plans to you.Before seeing Dr. Cheng and Dr. Kim I was always tired and I noticed I been losing a lot of hair for more than half a year and i had a very sever back pain. After just 2 treatment of acupuncture with Dr. Kim My back pain went from very sever to hardly noticed it was there. And after 3 weeks of herbal medicine proscribed by Dr. Cheng I noticed my hair falls a lot less then before and I feel I had a lot more energy and I no longer feel cold in the summer anymore!!!Bottom line is if you are having illness that western medicine cant fix, you should give Dr. Cheng and Dr. Kim a try because I feel like my recovery rate is amazing that I didnt even know it is possible to heal this fast.

Experiencing chinese medicine for yourself is a must. Victor Cheng is knowledgeable and can explain the reasoning behind his prescriptions very well in both chinese and english. As a testament to his knowledge, my wife has been taking metformin for diabetes for years now, and her health has been constantly in flux, not to mention the side effects of metformin (or any pharmaceutical). With Victors herbal prescriptions my wife no longer takes metformin, and her blood sugar is normal, about 95 two hours after a meal, about 105 morning fasting. I personally experienced a miracle in my sleep, i had been unable to sleep at all for months, turning and waking every 30 minutes, it began affecting my body and mind, i went to the hospital several times worried about my heart, then i tried the chinese herbal route, and now i feel healthy as a horse, and i hit the pillow and am out like a light within minutes, like a kid again. Highly reccomend this to anyone who is looking for solutions for their whole body health, thousands of years of medicinal research cant be wrong i guess.
