Testimonial - Infertility Treatment

Successful delivery of a baby girl in Nov, 2021

"Hello everyone

I would like to write the review about my fertility treatment with dr Iben.

I am 35 year old female and

Idiagnosed with endometriosis in 2017 November and I started trying to get pregnancy from June 2018.

We have tried almost more than year and didn’t get any luck to conceive naturally.

Meanwhile I was traveling to India for some family emergency and I got surgery for endometriosis excision surgery in India. My surgeon asked me to try to conceive naturally for 3 months and if doesn’t work just go for IVF.

We have to choose IVF. With the research got to know that Accupuncture helps in fertility.

So I found dr Iben online and worked out the insurance aspect. So I started treatment with her before IVF process. I took Accupuncture for 4 months.

1 month before IVF process starts. Accupuncture is one of the main reason along with gods wish that I conceived through IVF in very first trial. My first trimester went smoothly. In fact my whole pregnancy journey went smoothly. And I delivered a healthy baby girl through vaginal

Delivery.

All thanks to god,IVF team and dr Iben.

Dr Iben is very punctual, hardworking, friendly and flexible .

She sees patients comfort first.

She is flexible with her timings. She works on Saturday too for patients convenience. I am fortunate to found her and I will definitely work

With her in future. And I highly

Recommend her for fertility treatments with her.

Thanks"

Testimonial - Long Covid / Post Covid Conditions

Pain, fatigue, brain fog, chest pain and loss of taste and smell

“Dr. Iben is wonderful! I have been seeing her for both acupuncture and cupping, two to three times weekly, for more than three months. I had never had either treatment before, but was eager to try a different approach to treating Long Covid, which I had been suffering from for nearly two years. My primary symptoms were pain, fatigue, brain fog, chest pain, and lost/distorted taste and smell. Before seeing Dr. Iben, my symptoms were so debilitating that I had to take medical leave from work for more than five months. I had seen many specialists in my condition and tried various treatments, with only minimal improvement at best. After regular treatments with Dr. Iben, I experienced significant improvement in all my symptoms and am returning to work. My sense of taste and smell are even coming back. She is a thoughtful, caring practitioner who makes every effort to understand and treat the causes of pain and illness. I cannot recommend her highly enough. — Anonymous”

Testimonial - Skin Disorders

Severe Chronic Eczema

"If you have ever considered acupuncture once, you have got to sign up. Dr. Iben is one of the most thorough, knowledgable, and thoughtful providers. The primary plan for my treatment was to address my severe eczema (both atopic and dyshidrotic dermatitis all over my face and body). I came with many years of trying all that my dermatology/PCP could with steroid treatments, UVB therapy it felt both frustrating and hopeless to treat my eczema as results were not fruitful with the treatments my PCP had.

I decided to try acupuncture with Dr. Iben to treat my eczema as an alternate to my current care and it has proven to be the most effective and healing process for my eczema I have ever tried. Dr. Iben goes through the acupuncture process with both compassion and precision to address any current topical issues you come in with and any correlating issues also. With Dr. Iben's treatment plan, my eczema has been the best it's ever been with both my energy and mood improving as well.

Thank you so much Dr. Iben!"

Dr. Iben has been treating me and my wife for 1+ year now to manage our back pain. After getting treatment from her, the pain has reduced drastically. She even did a house visit for my wife as she was in pain and was not able to walk much. This just shows the dedication and empathy she has towards her patients!

Dr. Iben is patient, gentle and calm which has even helped us get over our fear of needles.

Thanks Dr. Iben for taking such good care of us! :)

I went to Dr. Iben after spending months talking to several doctors who were unable to figure out what was going on with me. I am unbelievably glad and grateful that I came across Dr. Iben's practice. She was able to identify many of the causes behind my symptoms, and my health has been steadily improving. Dr. Iben is caring, honest, attentive and knowledgeable, I always feel like I'm in good hands.

A year ago Weihong Iben has been successfully treating an excruciating pain in my left foot. Her intimate knowledge of nerve anatomy has yielded relief like nothing else. Three physicians assessed the problem with the latest Western diagnostic techniques and were unable to recommend anything other than Voltaran (Diclofenac Sodium) or Tylenol (Acetominophen) which helped, but not as much as Weihong Iben's Acupuncture.

Marina T.

I strongly recommend Dr Iben. I’ve been seeing her for a few weeks now for shoulder/arm pain. With 2 sessions the 80% of pain was gone. She knows where the tender spots are, without me showing them. If I can’t tolerate the needle pain she immediately tries a different approach. She is kind, empathetic ,professional and makes you feel at ease. I look forward to my weekly sessions , after each one I leave feeling calm and relaxed and relieved from my shoulder pain. Thank you!

About 2 weeks ago, Dr. Iben gave me a cupping treatment with her new expensive cupping equipment. I have never seen any similar type of cupping equipment before. It works in the similar way as the traditional cupping, but differs slightly in the way that it releases the sucking pressure for a short interval periodically. I feel better this way because it allows the blood to flow while the suction is going on. The treatment was excellent, alleviated my shoulder and back pain and released the tight muscles in the back of my neck. Also, as I expected, the cupping marks faded away faster than the traditional cupping.

The best experience 1st time customer and I plan on continuing my treatment here! I was in a lot of pain with very little movement when I arrived, after my first treatment my pain had lessened dramatically and I have a wider range of motion in my neck and upper body. Thank you so much Dr. Iben ❤

Three needles on my arm made my groin pain go away instantly. Amazing! Strongly recommend Dr. Iben.

Amy W. Palo Alto, CA - 11/7/2018

Dr Iben has been help me lots, she's very patience and nice, ask about my problems. I had really bad migraine and after she did acupuncture for me the headache was gone. Highly recommend Dr Iben !

Sang L. Palo Alto, CA - 9/29/2018

Excellent service! I would recommend the doctor Iben to acupuncture treatments.

I had back pain for 3 days and it bothered me. I couldn't seat or lay down comfortably. I went to get teatment from Pro National Health Center today. The doctor teated with needles on my belly (not on my back). She said this is more effective and she was right. The pain has gone. It is amazing. I will definitely go back next time.

Hong Y. Milpitas, CA - 7/24/2018

Dr. Iben is great! She treated me for digestive issues, neck pain and headaches. I feel much better after each treatment. Recommend strongly!

Maria R. San Mateo, CA - 6/10/2018

Dr. Iben is a very caring and wonderful doctor. I went to see her for back pain. I've been having problems for a long time, and after many years I wanted to try acupuncture again. She was concerned about my comfort, and she made sure I didn't feel any pain during the treatment. She made me feel very comfortable. Since then my back has been a lot better. I definitely recommend Dr. Iben, and I plan to see her again.

Nerissa B.

I’m not one to write a review but Dr. Iben is amazing! I was suffering from debilitating migraines and she took me in for a last minute appointment and provided me with instant relief. After seeing neurologists at Stanford and UCSF I was left with nothing but Imitrex to help, which was unsuccessful. She not only helped with my migraines but also my insomnia and other minor ailments that I didn’t even think to bring up. She is very responsive, even through texts and conveniently takes Venmo. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Iben if you are seeking relief in any way.

Michael G. San Jose, CA - 9/8/2017

Dr. Wei (Weihong) is great! I was a little worried about trying acupuncture (nervous about needles) but Dr. Wei did a great job of making me feel very comfortable and explained exactly what she was doing with the treatment process. After the visit I could say that my sleeping improved that night! I would highly recommend anyone who hasn't tried acupuncture if you are considering it, Dr. Wei will take great care of you!

Lelong N. San Jose, CA - 6/5/2017

Dr. Iben is wonderful. She is a very smart and gifted healer. She listened carefully to my health issues and determined the root cause of the symptoms. Her treatment was so effective. After few sessions with Dr. Iben, I was able to stop taking multiple pills a day. With acupuncture and exercise in water, my back-pain has gone. The Chinese medicine she prescribed for me was very helpful. I highly recommend Dr. Iben to people who may consider eastern medicine and acupuncture. It's worth a try.

Haleh A. Sunnyvale, CA - 5/11/2017

Dr.Iben is one of the most knowledgeable doctors I have ever met. I had opportunity to get the treatment in her office. Dr. Iben is always accessible and very responsible to her patients needs. I have an improvement since i get helps from Dr. Wei. Thank you so much for your excellent work. I highly recommend her to anyone.

Hilary S. from Nevada City, CA - 10/3/2016

When my partner and I were in a bad car crash, our friend recommended Wei as the person to see for help with our pain and trauma. We are so glad we took his advice. Wei is the most skillful and compassionate healthcare provider we have seen in decades, let alone the best acupuncturist. She is extremely thorough in her evaluations, and precise and thoughtful in her treatment. We both benefited greatly from seeing Wei, to the point that we would want her to be our primary health provider if we lived closer to her office. Highly, highly recommended, both for acupuncture and for general healthcare.

Charles Q. from Cupertino, CA 9/10/2016

Dr Iben is one of the nicest doctors I have ever met. She is extremely patient and detail-oriented. During the acupuncture therapy treatment, she examines the pain point of my back spot by spot to make sure that the treatment is effective. I felt instantaneous relax of my back muscles right after each treatment

I have suffered back pain for a long time due to playing competitive sports routinely, especially the next days after I played. Now after about 10 sessions, I no long feel any pain. I am still seeing her weekly to make sure that the pain doesn't come back and I get fast stress release.

A.A. Sunnyvale, CA - 9/9/2016

Dr. Wei (Weihong) helped me with insomnia and headaches. I felt a real difference after her treatments. Her needling is very gentle, not painful at all. Most of all I enjoy her personality - she is very friendly and balanced. I highly recommend her service

H L. Scotts Valley, CA - 9/9/2016

Ms. Wei (Weihong) has only been treating me for a few weeks and I've found her to be very knowledgeable and her treatments to significantly reduce my pain. When I told her my neck and shoulder areas are very tense and painful, she found and treated the exact spots that are causing the pain. After a couple of sessions, I feel much less pain. I also have severe tendonitis in both my elbows. My primary care doctor's only recommendation was to take anti-inflammatory medication. Ms. Wei was able to significantly reduce the pain with acupuncture so I don't need to take medication and am able to perform all my daily activities. I plan to continue to visit Ms. Wei regularly.

Janice G. Sunnyvale, CA - 9/9/2016

Dr Wei (Weihong) is really nice and caring! Recently I've been quite stressed from school and work. My body has been feeling really heated and I've gotten acne on my forehead. After just a couple of sessions, I've noticed an improvement in my acne! I also feel more relieved :) thank you!

Aml L. Milpitas, CA - 9/9/2016

I LOVE acupuncture! I use to be a skeptic! A non-believer. Then I met Wei (Weihong). I had such horrible sciatic pain, nothing would work. After giving it a try I was SOLD! After 3 treatments my pain was totally gone. God Bless you Wei. Can't wait to see you in your new location.

Dan S. San Francisco, CA - 9/9/2016

Wei (Weihong) has provided me pain relief in a professional, friendly, and affordable manner. Acupuncture has been an important part of my pain management since a car accident earlier this year. Through it all, Wei has gone out of her way for me- extending sessions, modifying treatment plans, and accommodating my schedule. I'd recommend her highly to anyone considering treatment for chronic pain. The results, and service, have exceeded my expectations by far.

Eric I. Santa Clara, CA 9/8/2016

I sustained a pulled groin muscle and was in great pain just walking. Years ago, It took me 2-3 weeks to recover on my own. I had already been treated by Ms Iben for shoulder pain on recommendation from a friend, with great success, so I decided to try acupuncture again with and Ms. Iben. I'm kind of a skeptic, but I really felt something from the needles, so I called it the "Qi" out of respect for Chinese medicine. Amazingly, I felt much better after the 1st treatment, and was able to rise from the treatment bed without pain and slept through the night. The next day I decided to do a 2nd treatment. Ms. Iben asked me where I felt the Qi. I replied, everywhere but the belly (where the pull was). She responded, "Oh, we need to adjust the location on the central needle (11 in all)". When she adjusted the 11th needle, I responded, "now I feel the Qi". She asked me, "are you OK", I said, "Yes, how long?" "30 min", she said. So, I breathed deeply, calmed down and lay waiting. 30 min later, she removed the needles. Surprisingly (to me, that is) I felt great. I went swimming the next day, but took it easy. I've had no pain since, and am now swimming, hiking, etc. Sure beats 2-3 weeks of pain. I highly recommend Ms. Iben.

Allan P. Las Vegas, NV - 8/27/2016

Ms. Wei (Weihong) is WONDERFULL!!, she listens to my issue diligently and emphasized with my pain. I had severe upper and lower back pain, which was affecting my daily routines. After a few session with Ms. Wei, the back pain dissapiered. I routinely go back to see her when it acts up again. I have always recommended her to my friends and family. she would treat you like family.

Joseph M. from Santa Clara, CA - 8/10/2016

“I was having tremendous stomach pain for days and couldn’t even sleep. Wei (Weihong) gave me some herbal medicine and I instantly felt better. When I stopped the medicine, the pain came back, so she continued the treatment until it went away. If it weren’t for her, I would have wound up at my doctor’s getting charged for exams and medical bills that she was able to cure with some simple herbs. Thank you Wei!”

Eric, Santa Clara, CA - 7/5/2016

"For years I had congestion in my throat which caused me great irritation. Western medicine doctors could not determine the cause. I went to Dr Iben to see whether Chinese medicine could help. ... From the first dose, my throat cleared up and relieved all my symptoms."
