AGC Acupuncture Clinic

"I've had acupuncture needles stuck in me since I was 1-2 years ago and have had a couple of acupuncturist in my own family. I have also lived in China for a couple years with the intent to attend the Beijing Acupuncture University back in the 80's. Needless to say, I have a lifetime of experience with the art of acupuncture and know who's good and who's not. Dr. Richard is an excellent acupuncturist and skilled at TuiNa Medical massage/acupressure. His skills are China taught (way much better than those trained anywhere else). How do you know the difference? Most US trained acupuncturist are afraid to go to the depth of where the needles need to reach to be most effective. I've been seeing Dr. Richard for many many years and I won't see anyone else. Him and his wife are a delight to see and they make it very convenient for when I need to come in (even on the same day). Don't waste your time on the others.... make your appointment today and don't trust reviewers that don't have any experience with the Art of Acupuncture. Happy health : )"

"This is my senior dad's first visit ever, and first of the 12 sessions that the VA provides. Both the doctor and his receptionist were warm, gentle, and the clinic was clean. My dad cringes at the thought of needles, I am not exaggerating when I say he does not allow just anyone to stick needles on him -- not just any nurse, not just any doctor. This entire first experience, from scheduling to the actual treatment was easy and pleasant. My dad slept thru the entire session. There's usually alot of resistance from him when it comes to treatments and therapies, but this time, my dad is looking foward to his next visit with Dr. Yan."

"I have gone to 5 acupuncture sessions in my life, 2 of those 5 at linden and grand Ave ( South SF) not a good place:/. The last 2 were because of a major back pain back in June and again this week. Couldn't wake up, couldn't walk straight, couldn't last too long in the bathroom.. It was that bad !!. I came to this location with so much pain and walked out with a fraction of the pain I had, but most important of all I was able to bend down, seat and have a normal life again. It was a painful session because I was in a very bad shape, super tight everything. If acupunture doesn't hurt is because there is nothing wrong."

"A husband/wife owned acupuncture spot. It was my first time ever at an acupuncture office. I was not impressed by the treatment, which involves sticking thin needles into the skin and laying there for 30+ minutes."
