Great!!! I always felt comfortable with Etta! I asked how long clients typically see her for conception, and she said about 3 months. I saw her regularly for about 3 months, including following her advice and drinking herbs, and became pregnant at 3 months of seeing her!! Really! I have been to previous acupuncture businesses over the years for various other things. Acupuncture really works! I have been to one other fancy & pricey acupuncture business last year, but was not happy with their intense vibe and approach, so I highly recommend traditional Chinese medicine such as at this office. Both acupuncturists are very friendly and speak English and Chinese. In terms of price here, if it helps you live a pain free life or accomplish a certain goal then it is worth it! Prices were fair and comparable. read more

My husband and I have been coming to see Dr. Fu and Dr. Wong for about 3 years now, and they have made the biggest difference in our health. As a previous nurse practitioner, I know quite well the benefits and limitations of modern medicine. My husband would get these colds on and off (like literally every 2 weeks in the winter sometimes) and the recommended Western medicine regimen can only help marginally. After just a session of Dr. Fu's acupuncture, cupping, and some herbal teas, he would bounce right back. The duration and frequency of these colds are also considerably shortened. I see Dr. Wong for an assortment of chronic ailments. The most memorable is when I had a bad case of acne on my face and back. I had been using a clindamycin solution and tretinoin cream that was prescribed to me for 2 months without much improvement. However, after 1 week of her herbal teas, my acne cleared up. Her teas are about the only thing that works for my acne. So glad we found them! read more

Dr. Etta Wong was super kind and very easy to talk to about my neck and foot pain. I'm still quite new to acupuncture but after 3 sessions, my upper neck and back pain was resolved! Highly recommend! read more

I love Dr. Fu and Etta! They're a father - daughter team and do a great job! Their office is ridiculously clean and looks absolutely immaculate every time I come here. They have 4 or 5 rooms where patients are taken for their treatments. The rooms are well heated and very clean. Dr. Fu and Etta do a great job of accessing the problem and quickly address the issue using acupuncture. I recently came here for my shoulder pain. Etta figured out where the trouble points were and I was there for about 40 minutes during the treatment. She put the pin things in, then put an herbal medicine on top. They then attach some sort of device that send light currents through the pins. There's also a heat lamp that they put over the trouble area. Overall, it's a very relaxing experience. Etta's very careful when she does the treatment and is very gentle. Overall, I'm very impressed with both Etta and Dr. Fu and look forward to my future treatments. I'm already feeling better! read more

Etta is very nice and professional. We typically only do the herbs as the DW and I don't like needles. Even though the needles are still unpleasant, but Dr Fu and Wong have a way of relieving the anxiety. We have been to a few herbologists and Dr Fu has been kind enough to help explain all our questions and all the things he is looking for during his examination. Definitely a great alternative and natural way to cure the problem and not just alleviate the symptoms. read more

Went to Dr. Fu since my mom has had sciatic nerve pain for a while. Asked for a consult first so that I could explain the situation. Chatted with him for about 10 minutes and showed him the MRI findings so that he had a better understanding of the issue. He said he could do 7-8 sessions and he was confident that the nerve pain would get better. We went for all 8 sessions but nothing really changed and it didn't get better. And for every single session, he would always ask why we were there and what the problem was even though it was clearly explained during the consultation. So long story short, acupuncture didn't help. I think the biggest issue here is the language barrier. It's hard to understand and also explain what the issues are. We talked to the daughter in law and luckily communicating was easier with her. read more

I have to say, I had my own doubts about going here. I have had a weird growth over my left abdomen for a few months, of which I had examined by over 3 doctors. After each of them checked it out, plus an ultrasound, they just deduced it was an innocuous growth. Wrong - this was painful half the time, and I ran out of options. I was at the point where I was willing to do whatever to try and relieve the weird swelling an pain. This is where Yelp actually helped - I found this place and saw many of the testimonials and gave it a shot. I'll tell you, it somehow works! I mean, my swelling has significantly reduced and my pain has gone from a 7/10 to a 1-2/10. It has been about 8 treatments over the last 4 months, and I have maybe 2-3 more left. It is a bit pricey, but when you have no other options, these guys might be your next best shot. I'll vouch for them, they are great :) read more

I came here because I had a huge problem with insomnia. I've been taking sleeping pills for 12 years every single night and was finally fed up! I was doing research on alternative natural ways to get rid of insomnia and stumbled across this place and thought I'd give it a try. We'll let me tell you Dr Etta did a remarkable job and I haven't touched a pill in over 8 months and can fall asleep on my own which is something I never thought I could do because the pills had taken over me. She's a healer and I'm so grateful I found her! Highly highly highly recommend! read more

After reading the good reviews I decided to take my mother in law to acupuncture for her foot. She has been having foot problems for awhile now, and this time it got really bad to the point where she couldn't even go upstairs or move. So she has been lying in bed for a week and taking pain killers for the inflammation. The Dr at Kaiser had taken an X ray and said, " X ray if fine, you don't have a fracture, you have to wait till it goes away but here are a few pain killers, if it is still bad give us a call. (That is western medicine in a nutshell.) A little down she decided to come with me and give it a try. We were both skeptical. I figure if you are in pain and can't walk, why not give it a try. I picked her up and wheeled her into the car with the walker, and when we arrived I wheeled her into the exam room. The acupuncturist Dr. Fu and Etta both saw her and treated her very nice. They are both really nice people. They were sensitive to her pain and gave her acupuncture on her foot with electrodes and with herbs for about 25 minutes. Afterwards, she was able to use her walker and walk to the bathroom and back to the car on her own. There was still some discomfort, but the fact that she was able to use the walker right afterwards and walk with the walker was pretty amazing. She was instructed to cook and take 2 bags of herbs for faster healing and circulation. So we will see how that goes. I am suppose to bring her back again tomorrow morning for her 2nd appointment. The price point for the initial treatment is $85, then after that it is $75. Can be pricey but if it makes you feel better and allows you to function daily it is worth it. I am a fan! read more

I've been to this clinic twice in the past week. I randomly saw it while driving down Warm Springs one day, and recently cross referenced the Yelp reviews to ensure its legitimacy. After two weeks of dealing with the uncomfortability associated with asthma (and two Western med doctor appointments, as well as taking a shitload of meds), I decided to give the doctors at this clinic a shot -- it is actually the real thing with Chinese doctors and herbs and all. My first appointment was with Eta, and she was very warm and receptive to my concerns with the tightness in my chest, and after checking my pulse and looking at my tongue, she started a tx that involved placing the needles on the acupuncture points for opening the lungs. In (some types of) asthma, there is a deficiency of the kidney in pulling down the qi from the lungs, so there was also some work done along those lines. She also tied an electric stimulator from my ankle point to my chest point in order to enhance the treatment and flow of qi. To be completely honest, I was starting to feel like I was Frankenstein in the making but it was all good in the end. Later, after the Frankenstein experiment was over, and the needles were taken out, Eta explained the process of cupping. She had me turn over on to my stomach and rubbed some peppermint eucalyptus oil on my back and heated up glass cups (via a live torch) that were used as suctions to move the qi along the major meridians. It was totally painless and there were no marks left. After that process, she placed some black dots (I don't know what they are called) in my ears to press on whenever I feel tight in my chest. One was to activate the lungs, and one was for the kidneys. Per my departure, I was given two bags of herbs to boil and drink as tea. I tried to do so, but the smell and taste killed it. Second visit was yesterday with Dr. Fu, who was also very experienced. He added some additional points on my back for the acupuncture tx and also performed the cupping, which helped to alleviate the tension and free up the qi. He asked me if I had been taking the herbs and I scrunched up my nose and said, "No, I couldn't do it, they don't suit me," to which he replied, "Ok you take pills then. They will help you." So he gave me a bottle of natural herb pills which have been helping. He was very compassionate and attentive. Great service in this clinic. It is a little pricey but you get what you pay for. read more

Etta is amazing! She did what 2 doctors and an allergist couldn't do, she helped my allergies become almost non-existent. I had terrible allergies and was spending so much on prescriptions which barely did anything to help. After a few sessions with Etta my symptoms decreased. Yes you do have to drink an herbal tea which is gross but it works! I recommend her and Acupuncture Fu Herbs 100%. Etta is professional, kind, understanding and great at w hat she does. I hadn't been able to take my dog to the park in over a year because of my allergies. Today I was able too. I'm so happy! Thank you, thank you, thank you Etta. I am now a believer. Also, the front desk gentleman is very helpful and nice. read more

Dr. Etta Wong is fantastic! She takes a thorough history and always reviews symptoms and updates with each visit. She'll carefully go through your problem areas and apply skillful acupuncture. I also received cupping therapy, which I found to be odd the first couple times, but then saw a significant improvement in my mobility and pressure/tightness after subsequent sessions. She's also very responsive via email/phone and will take the time to answer all your questions. read more

I first went to Dr. Fu when I had broken my arm about 15 years ago. He gave me treatments while my arm was in a cast. After my cast was removed, my surgeon told me I would need physical therapy and demonstrated what I had to do to start the procedure. Very painful! I went to Dr. Fu for treatments and he helped me regain full range of motion in my arm with accupuncture and no physical therapy. When I returned to my surgeon about a month later he was amazed by my recovery. I told him about Dr. Fu and accupuncture. I have been going to Dr. Fu for the past 15 years whenever I feel the need and have always felt better after treatment. read more

Growing up as a child til now, I have always been afflicted with the skin condition called eczema. It got so bad to the point where my neck was covered in oozing rashes and I could barely swivel left to right without being extremely uncomfortable. In the winter, I came to Dr. Fu. I (being very suspicious of this sort medicine) gave this place a shot. It worked wonders. The treatment I went through consisted of electrotherapy, acupuncture, cupping, and rounds of herbal tea. This may be overwhelming upon reading, but trust me, Dr. Fu and his staff make you feel so comfortable (the needles do not hurt one bit). After acupuncture treatment and drinking a cup of their magical tea, my itching went down tremendously. It wasn't gradual, but a sudden and obvious difference and I felt way better. My skin began to clear up and all the eczema symptoms seemingly disappeared. It was amazing. Back to the staff their, the doctors are very intelligent. Probably equipped with a vast array of traditional Chinese medicine knowledge, they know exactly what ails you and the remedy to fix it. Ultimately, although this may be a bit on the pricy side ($90-170 price ranges were what I experienced), the experience of Fu Herbs is well worth the price of admission. I am convinced that traditional medicine has figured it all out before modern medicine did. I urge anyone with any sort of ailment or issue to give this unique medicine a shot. read more

I had some severe long term health issues associated to stagnenet lifestyle and emotional distress. At a certain point, I was unable to do normal daily functions by myself well. I tried to use western medical treatments readily available to me, but felt they were unable to mediate my specific health situation. I was introduced to Dr. Fu through relatives, and within a little more than half a year of Dr. Fu's treatment, I feel I was able to make a significant physical and emotional recovery. Currently, I have been able to finish my education and find a job. Thank you Dr. Fu and chinese medicine. read more

I have been going to Dr.Etta for 2 months now for my stomach issues(burning, bloating), back pain, neck pain and TMJ issues. Dr.Etta is very knowledgeable and determined to solve my problems. She was able to cure my digestive issues in just 3 sessions which allopathic doctors couldn't even find the cause of the problem for 5 months(endoscopy results came normal). She has almost cured my back pain and lowered the ringing in my ears (due to TMJ). Acupuncture helps to find the root cause and cure the problem. Dr.Etta researched about my problem and changed some points after 4 sessions as the previous points weren't helping much with the ear ringing. Later, the new points worked well and reduced the ringing gradually. She gives a lot of important tips which have helped me to overcome my back pain. I am glad that I am going to her. I highly recommend Dr.Etta ! read more

Dr. Etta Wong is amazing! After each visit I have so much relief from the chronic pain I've had for so many years. I've tried everything from physical therapy to chiropractic care. I would strongly recommend her to anyone, friend or family! She's the best. read more

With first contact of this place, I felt that I was going to be taken care of. I called to make an appointment for my first time having acupuncture done. I explained to the doctors here that I had gout. They told me to come in right away. They knew that I was in pain. And just like some of the other people who reviewed this place, I could barely walk when I went in. By the time they were finished, I was literaly able to run and jump. I felt so much better after leaving here. It is a little pricey to come here especially if you do not have insurance. But I guess if you are in pain, you are pretty much willing to pay whatever, just so it goes away. I would definately recommend this place. You would not be disappointed. read more

Both Dr. Fu and Dr. Etta are professional and patient with their patients. This clinic can be considered our family acupuncture clinic. I heartily recommend Dr. Fu's clinic to others who have acupuncture needs. read more

I have not had acupuncture done for a while and lately had problems with neck pain related to my shoulder. I booked with Dr Ella Wong and she was excellent. My neck pain was completely gone. It has been over a week and I have not had any neck pain. She charged 130.00 for the first visit and 90.00 for each follow up. The price is a little higher than other places, but she fixed my problem. The only thing I did not like about the place was the strong herb smell. Maybe I was not used to it, Did no harm. I will come back again and highly recommend her. She was very kind and gentle and she speaks fluent English, and Cantonese. read more

I am a cynic. I trust very few things and I usually require proof before I believe anything. So, last summer when I re-injured my back, my wife suggested I see her Acupuncturist. Well, I wasn't able to stand up straight or walk properly so I had nothing to lose. After a brief exam with Dr. Fu, he was able to localize the problem and quickly developed a treatment plan. In my case, it was strategic acupuncture placement with electro-stim needles followed by cupping. Wow, Dr. Fu is so skilled I never even felt a pain as he put the needles in. And he was so gentle with the application of heat and electro stim. The cupping was a unique experience that I had never had before. But it worked. To be honest, I don't know how much he sped up my healing time. I'm sure I healed faster. But he made the pain so much more manageable. When I walked into his office I could barely even step over the curb I was so bent over in pain. By the time I left I was walking upright with very little pain. All I can say is, Dr. Fu did a great job. He provided results that really helped me out. I hope to not need his services again, but if I ever hurt my back again (or any other body part) I will see him. Thanks Dr. Fu! read more

I went here for fertility acupuncture and then after got pregnant for si joint pain. This is excellent acupuncture place( I've been to others) . I mostly went to Dr Etta Wong, she is very gentle and i would hardly notice needles went in) this place is extremely clean and appointments are super easy to schedule unlike some places where they do some 1st evaluation type of visit and charge u if u dont show up. She would take care of fertility points and also whatever else was bothering me ( like anxiety w those fertility medication treatments- turns out there is a point on head for anxiety... coming out after treatment so peaceful :) parking is easy unlike again some places I've been to. Now i feel great and can't find reason to go for treatment , but if anything, I'll be looking for Dr Wong's magic !! Update: healthy baby girl after combined treatment by my fertility clinic and Dr Etta Wong. Thank you Dr Wong, you are the BEST!!! read more

Short version: Good: Very effective for musculoskeletal/nerve issues Friendly and helpful Easy to schedule/flexible hours Good English overall - usually minimal communication issues Neutral: Can't speak for other medical conditions Bad: Cost can be an issue if not covered by insurance (especially with multiple treatments - about $100 a session) English is good, but definitely Chinese as the primary language Herbal medication tastes horrible. Seriously awful. I went to see Dr. Fu after suffering through a month or two of horrible neck pain; I only wish I had gone to him immediately. To make a semi-long story short, I exacerbated a chronic neck injury (car accidents) and was nearly immobilized. After going to the doctor repeatedly (prescribed multiple anti-inflammatories, NSAID injections, and steroid injection) and physical therapy for a few months, things were getting a little better - until I hurt it yet again. Physical therapy/manipulation by an over-aggressive therapist resulted in severe migraines, and in desperation I went to see Dr. Fu (found through Yelp and open on Saturday). He got me in the same day. I took my mother in law (Chinese, very experienced with Eastern medical practices) to help and to assess Dr. Fu. She (and I) were very impressed. He relieved my migraine with the first treatment (Acupuncture, moving cupping and massage), and prescribed really horrible-tasting herbal tisane. Good lord, it was awful, but I was desperate and really wanted to improve. And I did. Over the next ~10 treatments, the neck pain was resolved, my range of motion is back/better than it has been in years, and no recurrent migraines. I felt so good, in fact, that I ended up hurting my wrist (carpal tunnel) painting my entire house. Dr. Fu fixed that, too. If you are suffering with chronic pain and need an alternative to drugs, try Dr. Fu. I can't say he can fix everything, but he's been a lifesaver for me. read more

Dr. Guo Fu is the real deal! I was also a skeptic about Acupuncture until I ran out of options for effective pain treatments other than surgery. I found Dr. Guo Fu in the Yellow Pages several years back, and he has treated me, my niece, and 97 year old grandmother for various ailments with astounding results. That is not to say that he is a complete miracle worker, but he can help to alleviate many forms of pain and discomfort. I would definitely recommend giving Dr. Guo Fu a try. read more

This review is long over due, I have the pleasure of knowing Dr. Fu and Dr. Etta for more than 8 Years. Everybody is great at that office,( his wife is usually at the front desk and she is wonderful).They both have helped me numerous times and always successfully. Dr. Fu was wonderful when I was pregnant with my little girl (at age 43) he helped me (with great kindness, knowledge and wisdom) before and during my pregnancy. His acupuncture sessions and magical teas made it possible for my body to be strong enough to deliver to full term, thanks to that, now I have a beautiful and healthy girl. Dr. Fu has a picture on his wall along with many, many more that represent his success in this area. They have also helped my whole family with pain issues, hormonal changes, allergies and more. If you are considering acupuncture, look no further, they are really the best. read more

I got a treatment here from Etta Wong and she is great! Very patient and listened to all my needs. I told her that I was coming down with a cold and my whole body ached. After her acupuncture treatment , I felt a better and she sent me home with a few bags of herbs. After cooking the herbs, I got better pretty fast within 1-2 days. wow! read more

Amazing!!! I had a gout attack for several weeks and had to take over dosed western medicine in order to ease the pain. But only after the first treatment by Dr. Fu, the pain was gone and after three treatments I could walk as normal. My wife was also treated by Dr. Etta Wong for her diabetes and her sugar level became normal after two treatment. They are so good, I think they are one of the few good Chinese medical doctors in the Bay Area. read more

I've come to see Etta for different problems during past 2 years. She is caring, knowledgeable, and definitely is an expert in treating woman's ailments. I used to have very bad cramping and acne outbreaks during my period. After several acupuncture treatments and herbal medicine, I have no more cramps during the period and my skin clears up. Etta's clinic is nice and clean which is a big plus for me. I think the Dr. Fus pay extra attention to their facilities and patients so I know I am in a good hand for my health. Every time after my appointment with Etta, I feel my body and mind are so at peace. Big thinks to Etta! read more

I have been a regular customer here for many years. From issues with skin allergies to other sports injuries, Dr. Fu has been great! I have had skin allergies since I was a child and was almost ready to give up on trying to get treatment. I decided to give Dr. Fu a shot and try my luck. To my surprise, he was very effective in making my skin not be so reactive all the time. I also visit Dr. Fu a lot for sports injuries. When I twisted my ankle and could not walk the next day, I paid a visit to his office, got acupuncture and within 30-45 minutes I was up and walking. Of course there was still a lot of pain, but the swelling was greatly reduced and felt much better. read more

Let me start by saying that "Dr. Etta Wong" is truly a "Blessing and an Angel of Good Health" from God. I believed only in English Medicines and did not believe in any kind of alternative medicines at all. My wife asked me to meet with Dr.Etta and after a lot of hesitation, I met with her. I am a patient of Neuralgia, a neurological condition. I am so happy that I met with her. English medicines do not cure the root cause of the problem, it only cures the symptoms. Dr. Etta's wonderful treatment has reduced my extreme dependency of medication and has reduced it by "85%". I am almost cured now. She is a Brilliant Doctor, an Excellent Listener, Always a pleasant smile. I am very thankful to her and am very grateful, I found her. There have been many occasions she has completely cured the problem and proved that she is the best there is. Once, I had a splitting headache right on top of my head all the way till my neck. Pain killers helped, but it will come back when the medicine started wearing away and after a few days of non-stop pill popping, I went to Dr. Etta, couple of sessions the pain magically just vanished! Cold / Flu / Bad Cough -- she treats them all and her herbs are the BEST! Every Spring / Summer -- I used to suffer from seasonal allergies, really badly. Every year same drill, non-stop sneezing, sniffling, runny nose. A variety of OTC medicines, made me very drowsy and completely took a toll on me. Dr. Etta's medicines pretty much cured the problem. I have not taken any OTC at all this season : ) Anyways, I can go on and on and on. My whole family goes to her. We hardly visit General Physician anymore : ) She has my complete support. If you have a problem, go see her, you will be glad you did. read more

I had a severe back pain and decided to try acupuncture treatment. After reading the reviews here. I decided to give Dr. Fu a try. I was very impressed with Dr. Fu. After only 2 treatments of acupuncture, cupping and massage I was totally relieved. My pain was gone and I felt much better than ever before. I went to see Dr. Fu for a cough a couple of weeks ago, and after a treatment and a couple of days of herbs, the cough was gone; simply amazing. Highly recommended if you have chronic pain... read more

I went to Dr. Fu once and will never go back again. I am a woman. He gave me an unnecessary acupuncture pin somewhere between my breast.

Be aware, 5 star review bought me to him. read more
