Dr. Zhao is amazing, and if you've ever had ANY persistent issues Id recommend visiting her tbf. I…read morestarted seeing her for extremely painful and irregular periods relating to endo. Traditional docs had told me there was nothing to do anymore. From the first visit, she listened to everything I had to say and examined me, then we immediately began treatment. She estimated 2-3 months minimum of treatment before Id be better, and she's consistently checked in on progress and made modifications as needed. I felt better in a week, and could see/feel even more results within the first month. 4 months later and I am baffled at the results. My quality of life has *massively* improved and its all thanks to her. She has a wonderful, kind bedside manner that makes you feel at ease, heard, and taken care of. The office staff are always helpful, kind, and wonderful to chat with too!!! If you're on the fence, please go see her!! :]

Dr. Zhao is amazing. I went in with low expectations - having battled with migraines for 25 years…read more But I thought what else could I lose, having tried every supplement and prescription I had access to. Since starting acupuncture in January 2026 I have not had a migraine since. I've had some mild headaches here and there (days I forgot to drink enough water, or ate garbage), but not my dreaded 3-4 day stuck in bed with all the lights off migraine terror. It's really been amazing. I'm now working with Dr. Zhao on all the other issues I've ignored for so long. The weird tennis elbow/carpal tunnel pain, insomnia, the random chronic things that I just learned to live in pain with. For new patients, you will go into a consultation and then almost seamlessly transition right in to treatment. So a consultation lasts like maybe 10-15 minutes and then the acupuncture (depending on what you have going on) may take 45 minutes. If you just want the consultation, no treatment, you will need to be very clear about this. Dr. Zhao is ready to work, so if you do NOT want treatment you'll need to speak up. My insurance unfortunately does not cover acupuncture ( I have an HSA) so I pay about $185 for cupping and acupuncture per session. I know with other insurance it would be about $15 co-pay. I recommend Dr. Zhao to everyone.

I definitely give Irvine Acupuncture a 5/5 rating. Dr. Rey's experience, knowledge and treatments…read morehave made my life so much better. He is also very good at explaining things and answering questions. I initially went in for help with insomnia. I had tried all OTC sleep aids which had worked for years and then they started having the opposite effect. I tried all the latest prescription sleep aids but they didn't work well and left me drowsy all day. Dr. Rey's treatment has given me an extra 60-90 minutes of sleep at night, but even more importantly, I get a lot more deep sleep and REM sleep which really makes a difference. I am so thankful - I actually look forward to going to sleep now knowing that I will be rested when I get up. He has also helped me with my almost daily headaches and neck pain. He has helped me deal with withdrawal symptoms from stopping HRT treatment. He's been able to help me with foot pain which is very important to me since I'm a big walker! And he is currently helping me with lowering my blood pressure. Yes - Irvine Acupuncture is wonderful! I recommend it highly. Nick (front desk) is also a great help with scheduling, insurance claims, and answering questions. ~ Sally L

I highly recommend South OC Chiropractic. I personally see Dr. Drake, and he has been instrumental…read morein helping me manage pain while also educating me on what my body needs to function better long-term. He doesn't just treat symptoms, he takes the time to thoroughly review X-rays, explain what's going on, and create a personalized plan focused on movement, strengthening, and core stability. His guidance on exercises and overall body mechanics has made a noticeable difference. I also have to share that my husband is now a patient as well, which if you knew him, you would know is nothing short of a miracle that he would seek medical chiropractic care. After hearing me speak so highly of Dr. Drake and seeing how clearly my pain improved, he decided to give it a try himself. Now he reminds me when I am overdue to make my appointment appointments with Dr. Drake! I really appreciate the excellent one-on-one care and the time Dr. Drake spends making sure I understand the "why" behind the treatment. If you're looking for a chiropractic office that takes a comprehensive and educational approach to care, this is a great place to go.

After needle placement, you're left to relax or sleep (bring your own audio if you want). Last ~10-15 minutes is acupressure massage, which can be painful, but always leaves me feeling better than when I came in. Occasionally, the Dr. does cupping treatment to boost circulation for a few days beyond acupuncture/acupressure. It's painful, but effective and my marks fade within a few days. He says "no pain, no gain." Dr. is adept at diagnosing muscle/joint issues usually by watching you walk in the door and just a few questions. Sometimes the injury/cause is not where you think, but the Dr. knows. My elderly mom and several of her friends also go there and also recommend this place widely. For those of us who work on computers all day, this is a great place to get some remedy for repetitive stress and too much sitting. Also, I referred my elderly Iranian lady neighbor who had been suffering with lower back/leg/hip pain and reduced mobility for several months.

I also feel that sometimes I get differing medical opinions and advice from my specialists so it's so comforting for me to know that I have a neutral and informed primary doctor that I can come to for a second opinion or advice on what I've been told by specialists. It's been a long and difficult road to where I am now but I feel hopeful finally. I highly recommend Dr. Elain.
