Meiling Qian, DN

4 stars.
I injured my back falling close to 4 feet straight to my upper spine. I was in pain for quite some time. Thinking it was going to heal on its own it didn’t. I went to Mei because my friend recommended it and because it is close by the neighborhood. She is a very nice lady and loves to converse with you. After two sessions I felt my back was getting much better, Though i didn’t believe it was going to work at first (because what are a few needles to your back is going to do?) but honestly I haven’t felt the harsh pain I was feeling, though, some is still there because I guess I didn’t continue to go.
Con: They don’t accept BCBIL HMO, only PPO. Expect to pay full price if you don’t have PPO.
She is a great doctor. she will tell you about her past as an immigrant coming to America teaching medicine at Northwestern. It’s interesting and it is something to talk about when you have 6 or more needles in you and can’t move.

Dr. Mei Ling is excellent and fixed a knot in my shoulder in one visit when so-​called specialists and Chiros and Napropaths just had me coming back. She’s the real deal and her Husband is a fine Herbalist!

Dr. Meiling is a great person to talk as she listens and calms you with her stories. She helps with all kinds of aches, pains, issues. She has calmed and made me feel so much better.

Meiling is really the best! What Dr.‘s told me could not happen, Meiling proved them wrong within 6 – 8 months of seeing her twice a month. She is not only great at what she does, but she is like a mother figure. Someone you feel comfortable talking too and she actually cares about you and your situation. I have recommended her to others including my parents who flew here from Ohio just to get treatment from her. The cost of the visits are very reasonable also.

Mieling is the best I have been going to her for the past few months and will continue to do so. My daughter takes my grandson and he feels she is helping him a lot. Mieling listens to your problem and then works to make you better.

I went here in 2006 to stop smoking (I had mad up my mind to stop) and with 1 one hour treatment, I am cigarette free.

I really like this place. It’s family –run. She’s got decades of experience and I feel really comfortable here. Plus, I like when a doctor educates me; not just gives me treatment. It’s preventative.

I finally got my stressed out sister who is a Chicago Police officer to see an acupuncurist. I sent her to Meiling. My sister is now a regular with Meiling. Meiling is caring and very knowing. Very good w/​her needles and you get excellant results. My sister is in a much better place after being treated by Meiling. Very grateful to her.

I have visited few acupuncturist and Dr. Qian Mei Ling is by far the best.
She is personable, smart and very attentive to your problem areas. She listens, treats and offers many wise suggestions. She dedicates her life to helping others. I am so grateful to her.

I was skeptical about acupuncture… and still am to a degree… but Meiling is right on about so many topics! She is funny, wise, and right on target. They accept most insurance and the acupuncture isn’t really painful as you’d think.
This place is otherworldly. Really… it’s a total trip to have, like, 12 tiny needles in your face, neck, back (or elsewhere depending on what ails you). And the patient rooms make you feel like you have left Chicago and arrived in another place, another era.
Worth a closer look for all slaves to Western medicine (and I include myself in that description).
