Dr. Lee is an amazing doctor and acupuncturist. I had been curious about acupuncture for a while and I'm so glad I gave it a try. My husband and I are going through IVF and I went to Dr. Lee for support for fertility while we start our first transfer. She walks you through what she is doing and explains each of her findings. When she found a tough spot, she let me feel it too so I could better understand what she was talking about. She explained which system corresponded to each area we worked on. The AcuSuccess office is so relaxing. The lighting isn't too bright and there was quiet instrumental music playing. Dr. Lee and her assistant were both so so nice and welcoming. I also really liked how clean everything was. All the needles are packaged, she swabbed each spot and opened a new needle package for each stick. Finally, I am actually pretty squeamish about needles and I barely felt the pokes. Overall, 10/10! This was a wonderful first experience of acupuncture. I'm recommending Dr. Lee to anyone interested in acupuncture and/or healthcare that considers the whole person. read more

I had a great experience with acupuncture and I will highly recommend to try for yourself. I came in with a specific issue that I wanted to handle and after 30 minutes I felt the difference. Dr Lee asked me great questions that led for positive outcome. read more

I was a patient sometime during early December. Some of my at home treatments were not working. I was trying to see if I use a more holistic treatment. Dr. Lee was professional and did a thorough exam. She discussed the treatment plan with me to make sure I was okay with it. I was in quite a predicament. I could not turn my head. After the treatment. Around the next day. I could look over my shoulder. She is really good and knowledgeable. I would recommend Dr. Lee. read more

Dr. Lee is absolutely incredible. She has tremendous knowledge of her field, is relentlessly kind, supportive, empathic, and listens outstandingly well. After just one session with her, my severe pain from scoliosis (pain I feel at all times) went away for some time! Each time I have returned to her, I have had similar results -- something I have never had from any other form of treatment! I cannot recommend Dr. Lee strongly enough. She is a miracle worker and just a terrific, lovely human being. She helps you feel instantly safe, understood, deeply cared for, and nurtured. She is a master at what she does and I trust her immensely. Please do yourself a favor and see her! She will change your life. read more

I went to see Dr. Lee as I haven't had acupuncture in a while. She was very efficient, friendly, and really knew her stuff! My knee and back pain were much improved after one visit, and I'm planning to come back again - it was such a relaxing visit!! read more

Dr. Lee is amazing!!!! She really goes above and beyond for her patients and actually cares about every single one of them. Interacting with her automatically puts you at ease and relaxes you. She does not make you feel like she's in a rush to get you in and out. She makes sure to ask questions and understands what your symptoms are. She is highly skilled in her field (studied for over 10 years) and knows exactly what she is doing. For sure, the best acupuncturist that I've ever been to! I have been to a couple and they definitely are not as skilled and don't care as much as she does. I am a personal trainer and currently training for a bodybuilding show. I have a foot injury that I haven't able to completely rest because I need to do a lot of cardio for the show, but whenever I finish an appointment with her it ALWAYS feels better. She takes her time and makes sure that you're feeling better before you leave. Of course if you've had an injury for a long time do not expect for it to be completely gone right away. With enough visits you will be healed. One thing guaranteed is you will definitely feel better EVERY time. Make an appointment with Dr. Lee today! Your future self will thank you. P.S. I never write yelp reviews. The fact I am writing this shows how awesome she is. read more

My experience with Dr. Lee was incredible! I've worked with many other acupuncturists in the past, and her treatment stands out as one of the most comprehensive, supportive, informative, and transformational treatments I've ever received. She is so knowledgeable, and her expertise in what she does stands out. Her space is comfortable and she goes above and beyond for you to feel treated - from snacks and drinks that she provides in the room, to comfy robes that you get to wear during your treatment, to using high end quality products to fully relax and calm the nervous system. Pain that I had been experiencing for over a week leading to tension headaches melted away while she needled me, and my body was able to relax more than it has since I can remember during the session. I highly highly recommend seeing Dr. Lee! read more

Had previously received care from Dr. Lee virtually. Was in the area in San Diego so I took the opportunity to get a treatment in person. From the moment you walk into the treatment room, you can tell that the patient comes first. From all the goodies (snacks, supplements, candy) laid out for the patient to the high quality equipment in the room, you can essentially feel the care in the environment. Dr. Lee was able to treat my lower back issue with a combination of acupuncture, the massage functionality from the treatment bed, and it had a spa-like feel with a heated eye mask to make sure I was in a distraction free environment. If you are in need of a healing space for any issues, I wouldn't hesitate and go see Dr. Lee for a consultation and initial treatment. Not only will she treat your symptoms, but take great care in understanding you as an individual, providing a whole person treatment plan to guide you on your way to wellness. I will certainly seek Dr. Lee for treatment every time I'm in San Diego! read more

Dr. Lee is extremely knowledgeable, professional and thorough in her care for her patients. When I came in for my treatment, she wanted to make sure she fully understood my background and any needs I had to be the healthiest version of myself. I can tell she truly cares for her patients and wants to help them live a long life! I'm typically uneasy around needles, but Dr. Lee has such a calming, pleasant presence and made me feel completely at ease. I could feel my neck and shoulder tension immediately release as she strategically placed each needle on my body. Not only was it helpful physically, but it was such a treat mentally to relax in candle-lit room with calming music and no distractions. The bed was extremely comfortable and to my surprise, it even had a massage feature at the end. I also loved that she provides complimentary snacks and beverages for patients as they leave. Go see Dr. Lee and be prepared to leave refreshed, relaxed and feeling a bit lighter! read more

Dr. Lee has been instrumental in the positive outcomes during my health journey this year. I have been receiving acupuncture with Dr. Lee for 6 months. She is engaged when it comes to understanding your medical history. Dr.Lee will individualize treatment based off your health information. She takes time to have a conversation with her clients before starting your treatment for the day. My symptoms have resolved and my quality of life back to where it used to be. Dr. Lee is sooo comforting and we always share a good laugh or two. Calming environment, very clean. Thank you again, Dr. Lee. read more

I have had several more sessions with Dr. Lee since my initial review. I had more cosmetic acupuncture in addition to medically focused sessions. I asked Dr. Lee to assist me in overcoming fatigue brought on by recent illness. After two sessions, I felt more energy and vitality and my immune system seemed to bounce back. I recommend working with Dr. Lee for quality care. read more

My first time doing a facial acupuncture, I was nervous. But Dr. Lee talked me through the procedure and was very knowledgeable, it made me feel more relaxed. I told her how my eyes were my main area of concern, and after my procedure my eyes felt snatched! She answered all my questions and concerns. And she's very caring. I would come back for round 2, I definitely recommend acupuncture from Dr. Lee. read more

I found Dr. Lee on Yelp and scheduled an appointment based on her extremely positive reviews. I have had acupuncture in the past by multiple practitioners but feel that Dr. Lee is on another level with regard to her skill and expertise. I had been experiencing left subscapular pain for months with minimal relief from physical therapy or chiropractic work and noticed immediate resolution of my pain after one session. She informed me that the best results occur immediately and with consistent maintenance, I could be pain-free indefinitely. I would highly recommend seeing Dr. Lee as she is the most effective and proficient acupuncturist that has worked on me. read more

What a great experience. Had a quick 30 min stress and detox session (had gone to wineries the day before). Felt relaxed and headache free afterward, and I look forward to a more in-depth visit. Update: The second visit was a success. Felt so relaxed afterward. Slept better than I had in weeks and just seem to be a bit lighter. Dr. Lee asks insightful questions and listens. I had mentioned that my stomach always seemed upset but told her my focus was on stress. Related? Probably, but I have not had as much indigestion since the first visit. Continuing to see Dr. Lee is one of the best decisions I have made for myself. If you have made it this far in my review, go make an appointment! You won't regret it. read more

I saw Dr. Lee on an emergency basis for post-sepsis syndrome, which consists of low back and hip pain, hot flashes, loss of taste, and psychic trauma. I could hardly walk or sit and was in a world of pain. Prior to our first home-visit, Dr, Lee researched the exact points calculated to bring relief to my extreme and somewhat unusual symptoms. She was above all studied, thorough, and methodical. Miraculously, after one treatment I felt well-enough to get my hair cut for the first time in 5 months and to actually have a drink during happy hour at my favorite waterfront restaurant. Prior to Dr. Lee I was isolated and homebound. I have seen her at her lovely offices two times since then and am confident in her ability to treat my symptoms. Her compassion and kindness is unparalleled. She accepts complete professional responsibility for my care (have never had that from any medical doctor before), including contacting my primary care physician for information on my condition. I cannot recommend her highly enough. This picture is of me and my amazing husband taken at Tom Ham's after my first treatment. I keep it on my phone so I can remember what it felt like to be happy and alive and relatively pain-free for the first time in months. There is no overnight cure and my healing is a roller coaster ride for sure requiring months more of treatments. But this picture captures a time that gives me hope that with Dr. Lee's treatment, I can live a full and happy life again. So grateful! read more

This was my first time doing acupuncture to address some chronic neck and shoulder pain/stiffness.

Dr. Lee made sure I felt comfortable during my first session, and I definitely recommend her to people that are curious about acupuncture. read more

I had the best experience here with Virginia and Aleta doing acupuncture along with my facial! The treatment was so calming, relaxing and cleansing! It brought out my natural skin radiance & my skin was glowing after treatment. I also felt extremely relaxed and like pressure was lifted in stressful spots around my face, neck and shoulders. The combination with acupuncture treatment during the facial by Dr. Virginia Lee was an extra special treat as well which added to the stress relief! So thankful for Aleta and Virginia! read more

Dr. Lee was recommended by a friend and I'm super glad they did. She is everything was hoping for in an Acupuncturist. I REALLY and TRULY appreciate the time she spends working with me and her level of engagement and empathy. I felt like an empowered person afterwards, and not just another transaction. The holistic approach has already made a big difference in my day to day life, and I am lucky to have heard about her after searching for a few year for the right one. I can't say enough good things , and without a doubt is the one I recommend to others looking for an acupuncture read more

Acute neck pain sent me to every modality and practitioner imaginable for relief--without much to write home, or Yelp, about. I actually fell asleep on Dr Lee's table, the first spontaneous rest I'd experienced in the midst of my weekslong discomfort. I surprisingly had greater range of motion and reduced pain immediately after the treatment, and again slept that night the best I had in months. The neck spasms returned with driving, but the pain did change, became more focal. I imagine subsequent treatments could help get me back to the land of the living. read more

I barely felt any of the needles go in and I immediately felt relaxed. read more

Dr. Lee is simply an amazing healer! She is a genuinely caring, intuitive, and highly-skilled professional. She made me feel welcomed, well-cared-for, and confident that I was in good hands. I could see that she's authentic in her purpose to help me and resolve the issues of concern. She was so present throughout the visit and was keenly focused on how I described my pain in order to interpret what I was saying and translated that to a solution with precise placement of the acupuncture needles. Her insight immediately led her to the exact spot. Amazing! I was more than surprised, I was astonished with the result. I had been dealing with that pain for quite a while and with her expertise, she relieved it. How could she do that so quickly?

I have never had acupuncture before, but I will definitely be getting it again with Dr. Lee! Her intuitive energy blends western and eastern medicine in a ground breaking and refreshing way.

As I took deep breaths and dropped into areas of physical and emotional tension I had been holding, I was finally able to experience relief. After my session, it felt like icy hot had been applied to my previously painful organs and muscles, and I slept so deeply and woke up completely refreshed. 10/10 would recommend! read more
