Dr. Yao is the finest acupuncturist who has ever treated me. I have lost almost 50 lbs (1 pound per week) due to Dr. Yao's successful treatment. Importantly, no drugs are used! He is the only acupuncture doctor who has ever been able to help me to achieve my weight loss goal. Dr. Yao is humble and a great listener. His approach is consistently calm, pain-free and respectful. He asks follow-up questions at the beginning of each visit. He genuinely is concerned about my health. Severe pain relief - using both acupuncture and cupping, Dr. Yao has eliminated pains in my foot, legs, hip, neck, elbow, sinus, and throat. He successfully treated my insomnia, urinary and digestion problems. He has vast medical knowledge. I will continue to be a loyal patient of Dr. Yao for years to come!
