I recommend this place to all my friends. It's where we all go for all our aches and pains. I usually get the acupuncture + acupressure combo treatment. First 45-50 minutes is acupuncture. 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. After two treatments here, she is greatly improved and was so grateful that she hugged me and brought me flowers. read more

Great experience! Five stars! I gave the Dr. a rundown of the areas of concern and with perfect precision he got the needles right into the problem areas and then some. Even deep tissue massage could not get close to these problem zones. Would highly recommend read more

This is a great spot they open everyday . I have been to over 7 accupuncture practitioners I have to say it is the best one . They are healers and seriously have strong hands . Their treatment is strong . Other places place the needle very weakly that's why you do not feel any remedy . The acupressure is the best as well. If you want cupping go here , they do fire cupping as well. I have nice bruising on my back when I come here . Dr. Pan and Dr. Zheng are fantastic they know the condition of your back just by giving a simple pat down . Thank you for treating me today . read more

I've spent so much money on this place and had a somehow bad experience especially towards the end. I've had a few concerns but each time they defended themselves with a bad attitude, and intend to use an 'educating voice' which is not appropriate given the situation. They do not seem to treat me as a customer but rather someone who owe them. read more

I purchased two sessions each time, one $75 includes both acupuncture and acupressure, the other one $45 which is 30 min massage. Each time after the first session of acupuncture they jumped straight into the second session. It seems like they have ate up my acupressure minutes each time. I pointed out the issue several times but every time they replied with vague unclear answers with very defensive tone. Communication is awful. read more

My daughter sprained her ankle during soccer practice and couldn't walk due to swelling and a black bruise. A friend recommended this place for treatment. Dr. Pan treated her with acupuncture and acupressure, and we noticed her bruise starting to fade away. We're planning to return for another session so my daughter can heal faster. Highly recommend this medical center. read more

6 years update! He's still great. I changed jobs, moved, increased my commute, more computer time, started lifting weights, using my phone more and more and through all these self inflicted things caused my body lots of issues. I did stop coming for a while but one day when my sciatic was terrible and my back ached and I was all sorts of not feeling well I came back. I still live far but it's the best to get my acupuncture, acupressure, and suction cups to loosen up my tight muscles. Helps with my headaches, plantar fasciitis, and thumb/wrist pain. read more

避雷！避雷！As someone who often take acupuncture at qualified hospital, The skills of this clinic is pretty poor tbh, Their are two "doctor" here. Neither of them has knowledge of modern medicine. These two people rely more on ordinary health care methods. but can not give accurate treatment flexibly through medical experience and knowledge. That doesn't mean they can't solve any problems, After all, acupuncture itself is usefulI in some ways. But there is no way for them to compare with those qualified Traditional Chinese Hospital. Try those chinese clinics where medical institutions are gethered or close to hospitals, If you are looking for one. read more

I went in with a shoulder, back and neck issue that started to affect my jaw. They did acupuncture, acupressure, cupping and massage to relieve my pain. The result was immediate. They take their time and are very kind and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend. Parking is easy as well. read more

LIFE SAVER! So lucky to find this place and met Dr. Pan and Dr. Zheng. They are amazing people with excellent skills and knowledge. I had throat pain and lost my voice completely. Having taken some medicines and not seeing any improvement, I was having a really bad headache and muscle tension. Initially walked in just to get a massage hoping to alleviate some of the stress, never tried acupuncture before but at that point, I was more scared of losing my voice for any longer than the needles. After one treatment I could make a sound, and then after two treatments I was able to talk, it is unbelievable how quickly and effectively acupuncture works when done right by the professional. Dr. Pan and Zheng saved my voice and I am feeling so much better after the treatments, mentally and physically. Highly recommend. read more

Update: If you deal with any kind of regular pain, you know how much it means to get relief. This business is run by 2 exceptionally kind and caring professionals. My case is complicated and I can't always afford to go as often as I'd like but they go above and beyond every time I'm there. I could not recommend them more highly. read more

Dr Pan is my favorite doctor. Have You ever watched a professional who's been doing their work for decades and really know their stuff? That's Dr Pan- his hands are as adept as a skilled, born with it, natural healer. He comes from a family of acupuncturists. I was skeptical when I first met him. I was picking up my grandma and he said my face coloring showed I wasn't healthy. I got offended and walked out to wait in the car. It wasn't until my sister highly recommended him that I gave him a try. She had been seeing for seven years and she is in her twenties. He worked wonders for her work injuries. I went for lower back pain that other chiropractors and two other acupuncturists couldn't fix. Thanks to him, each time something is off or hurts- he can fix it. Also, no one massages like him. I've had hundreds of massages in four countries and his. Is. The best. I think it's because he knows the anatomy tendons ligaments and how they should feel. I was very impressed with his sixth sense. He seems to know how to read my body and pointed out my neck was twisting in one direction too much. No idea why.... then I realized later that it was from my photography gigs! Then I started having aches from long commutes and posture issues while working on the computer. Dr pan and Zheng educated me on posture best practices. He always remembers areas that are prior injuries without me having to tell him again. He's open, cheerful and full of wise zen practical advice. He also answers questions about pressure points, meridians, I've asked him questions like what weird places have you put needles. (Tongue, ear). He explained that blood vessels will move away from the needle so you can't easily puncture them. Now I see Dr pan and Zheng as family. They know me, my goals, my hopes, fears- they are easy to talk to and sweet kind people. You will not regret trying them out. read more

I've gone to this place twice now and both times I leave feeling a lot better than when I first come in. Both times I have had the 30 minute massage with full back cupping. The doctors are very good about making sure you are comfortable. My friends had the acupressure with acupuncture and I could hear the doctors checking in to make sure they were ok through every step of the process. At the end of the section, when I returned to the front desk, the doctors offered at home recommendations (Posture is a problem for me) and what they would like to do during my next visit. I really appreciated their expertise and I will definitely be coming back again. read more

Dr pan has been my advanced care physician for a year and I'm very happy every time I need to come in which fortunately isn't too often everything is easy Peasy from reception to billing I usually don't have to wait more than 20 min and I have been able to schedule appointments as early as two days in advance without much difficulty I have usually been able to come in before work so a visit to the doctor for a physical or check up barleys impacts my day. read more

Having worked with and receiving treatment from chiropractors, physical therapists, massage therapists, and real acupuncturists, I know what to look for when it comes to pain management. It is so hard to find an acupuncturist who knows what they are doing, even among all the Chinese drs here in the states. Dr. Pan and Dr. Zieng are the real deal. My husband went for his first needle session ever and told me he definitely "felt a force" with Dr. Pan. He injured his wrist and felt 95% better after just 1 session. I had shoulder pains for years that comes and goes. I went to a different location months back and the pain was still there. I went to Dr. Pan and immediately felt relief! His acupressure is amazing as well. Both he and Dr. Zieng know what to look for and can find the trouble spots within seconds. They are very professional and pleasant. They don't have a website because they only rely on word of mouth. They are not greedy for more patients because they are content with their patient flow as is. I highly recommend Dr. Pan and Dr. Zieng. read more

I was happily impressed with the care and concern shown by these doctors, a husband and wife team trained in their native country of China. Despite our language barrier, they seemingly intuitively discerned my symptoms and how to alleviate my discomfort. It's a radically different approach to healthcare from Western medicine, but go in with an open mind; I for one found that the outcome from acupuncture at this location was of help. I have previously used accupuncture with different doctors, and feel that at Pans Medical Center the doctors are far more skilled. read more

I compete in Olympic weightlifting and recently started feeling a strain on the side of my right knee & above my knee cap as well as a fullness in the back of the knee. I was skeptical about acupuncture but was willing to try anything. After describing my symptoms, Dr. Pan immediately said, "I know what's wrong with you, I'm going to fix you." Over two treatments (1 day apart), he did acupuncture, acupressure, cupping & massage. I've had zero discomfort since then. I can perform lifts and squats with zero discomfort and have complete mobility. I will definitely continue coming back for maintenance. read more

I was crawling on the floor of my place and had a back neck pinched nerve that caused me to be immobile. i honesty would have done anything to get this fixed due to the extreme pain. I have a pretty strong pain tolerance too. So i went to the closest place knowing my traditional doctor would have taken a considerable amount of time. I could not function so I went to pans and the nice Asian lady helped me upfront. Her husband did in incredible job and messaged my knot out and applied acupuncture to my neck and completely relieved me. I literally walked out the door feeling better. I always recommend this place to all my friends and highly recommend this business. read more

Cured my 6 year long chronic tension headache! It was a disabling headache that happened at random times at random areas, without any correlatable cause. Half of my waking moments were in severe pain, daily. Before I met Dr. Pan, I tried Stanford Hospital's neurology, did two MRIs (found nothing), and physical therapy. After that I went through 2 chiropractors and 4 acupuncturists, but none really worked. They were about to send me to pain management (aka living on prescription painkillers), but I refused. It dragged on for years. When I was about to give up hope, one of my coworkers recommended massage therapy from Dr. Pan. Initially I didn't know he does acupuncture and didn't expect anything more than temporary relief. But after hearing my story, he was confident that he can solve it and suggested acupuncture. Having nothing to lose (the disabling pain costed me way more than his fees), I asked him to suggest an initial treatment plan without any reservation about cost and time. Though he suggested 2 weeks of intensive treatment every day, given I know how tough my case was, I told him to do whatever he deemed appropriate and not hold back at all (after-all the needles were nothing compared to my headache in the first place) and I won't give up unless I see no changes in 4 weeks. He used nearly all the TCM techniques that I've heard of: acupuncture, heat lamp, massage therapy, cupping, scraping and even moxibustion (艾灸). Nothing seemed to change until the 3rd week (perseverance pays)! The pain intensity didn't go down yet, but the frequency and duration of the pain were noticeably reduced. With the good start, I continued the treatment for a year and the headache was no longer random and the duration and intensity was better than halved. Two years into the treatment, I'm pain free by default like normal people. With the headache now gone, I go there regularly to address minor problems like back/hip muscle pain from working in front of a computer for too long. Pretty much just maintenance. The treatments more than paid for themselves because I was able to make more from my investments without the headache getting in my way. I considered myself lucky that I found Dr. Pan before giving up. I'm speaking as an example of a very tough case. Most people recover much faster than I do, especially if they catch the problems early and start treatment early. He's the go-to person if you ruled out all life-threatening problems from western medicine and the MDs couldn't do much about the pain other than giving you painkillers. Before you go, here are my 3 advice to ensure the best experience and results: 1) Trust him and let him make the calls! You won't be there if you know what to do. Feel free to try something else if you don't see improvements in the time-frame he suggested, but at least give him a chance to try his methods. 2) Don't haggle on the prices (it's pretty much standard). I'd rather pay good money than wasting my time on somebody else giving non-working treatments for free. 3) If you can handle more intense needle sensation, let him know. He'd prefer to have you recover with fewer sessions whenever possible. The less constraints you impose on his treatments, the better bang out of the buck you'll get. These are just basic etiquette when you seek help from a very competent doctor. read more

We have seen Dr. Pan for years. He is best acupuncture in town. My daughter had a foot injury during Taekwondo practice. We went so many other acupuncture places and so many physical therapy sections. She still had a sting pain that wouldn't go away. However, after she went to see Dr. Pan, she was completely healed. It was amazing!!! read more

I'm really dislike needles. I hate them. I went with my fiancé because I had a back injury from ten years ago I work in tech so my neck is messed up. Dr Pan was able to find areas that were hurt which I'd forgotten about. My golf soreness and later a broken wrist were all alleviated with his and Dr Zheng (his wife's) care. It doesn't really hurt- like a small pinch. Not painful like you think it is. You'll relax and take a nap. After each treatment he will do a acupressure massage which is amazing. I love it. I look forward to this the most. He has strong hands and he will work out some of your knots. Zheng and Pan understand English and will get their point across in simple terms. Dr Pan is easy going, confident, always happy, and knows what he's doing. He's honest and wise. I brought one of my best friends, my sister and her boyfriend. We drive over an hour each way from LA. Now I moved to Palm Desert and I have to drive two hours to get there but it's worth it. I've been going to him for two years and I go see him once a month if I can if not more. I don't think I'll find another doctor like him. read more

I've been coming here for a couple years now. I get severe migraines that make it impossible to function. As a desperate last resort after I realized chiropractic care was just relieving me from these migraines temporarily, I decided to give this a try. The result was absolutely life changing. The combination of acupuncture and acupressure can relieve me of a migraine before I leave the premises. They ask ypu how you feel afterward and if my pain is still there, they keep trying until i feel better. Going here once a month or so keeps them at bay, and it is always a good and relaxing experience. I drive 30 minutes each way just to see these guys. I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

Dr. Pan and Dr. Zheng are very professional and have extensive years of practice experience in Acupuncture, massage therapy and traditional Chinese medicine. Both of them are really friendly and patient. I had serious car accident and second wrist injury that the pain and soreness of my joint, neck and shoulders have been really bothering me for a long time. By description and observation, Dr. Pan is so professional that he was able to diagnose my problem and provide proper treatments. My daughter had a little accident when she was about 2 years old. When she turned 4 years old. I found out that her right thumb couldn't stand straight, and it was in a bending position all the time. I took her to pediatric, and the pediatric determined that my daughter had tight tendon, and just needed minor surgery when she grew older. On every appointment, Dr. Pan took time to massage my daughter's hand, and with his massage, he skillfully pushed her bone to the right position. My daughter's thumb looks normal now, she can bend and straight her right thumb without any problem. And best of all, no surgery required!! read more
