3000 Years Health Center

Finally I made it to a Chinese Acupuncture/​Herbalist today.
I’m happy I did because now my mind is at ease. My skin issue I have had for nearly a year is most definitely and internal issue.
All the Doctors and Dermatologists I went to in the past few months couldn’t give me the answer to the real cause but instead all said its related to Stress. ‘You are way too stressed’…
Dr. Lien Diep was able to give me a correct diagnosis to my issue. Where do I start. Oh boy a lot of internal issues from my Liver not functioning correctly, issues also kidneys, Lungs, digestion and stomach and internally infection. I was given herbs to drink and other meds to take and unfortunately I’m leaving for home in about a week but will continue seeing a Chinese Herbalist when I’m back in Sydney Australia. Hopefully things will turn for the better.
I totally recommend 3000 years Health Center and Dr. lien Diep for anybody that is having symptoms of skin, skin rashes, fatigue, irritability and mood swings, insomnia and the list goes on.
Thank you Dr. lien Diep for helping me today and giving me the answers I wanted and needed to hear.

My boyfriend was experiencing extreme stress and inability to eat or sleep. It was a Sunday and I was looking for an acupuncturist or alternative medicine practice. I came here based on the good Unilocal reviews. Jonathan was the doctor he saw. They were able to help him after waiting first come, first served. The tea prescribed for a week was effective, the herbs (tea) cost about $ 60/​wk, plus the consult fee, I believe.
It solved his problems and I would come back here in future for herbal remedies or a Chinese medicine practice.
I am also trying other places in Chinatown to compare prices though. Good experience overall. They were very effective; just want to compare prices.
EDIT: I compared with a visit to Tin Bo, which is two doors down. The prices sort of even out, but depending on your needs, you can make a decision. The Acupuncture+Consultation is cheaper at Tin Bo, but the Herbs prescription is more expensive at Tin Bo. If you just need Herbs + Consult and you need a weeks supply (or more) of herbs, then 3000 Years is a better value. If you’re doing a combo Consultation + Acupuncture + Herbs, it is roughly the same price. If you’re doing just Acupuncture and no Herbs, go to Tin Bo. If you’re savvy enough to know what Herbs you actually need without a consultation, then Tin Bo sells those. But Tin Bo’s Herbs cost about $ 12/​day vs. 3000 Years cost about $ 7/​day.

I have found my new go-​to health practitioner — excellent at both acupuncture & chiropractic. Yesterday for the first time, I saw Dr. Diep for the combo treatment of 1^st acu then chiro & today I feel so much better!
I’ve been getting acu for 14 yrs and chiro for 30 & have tried many practitioners throughout Los Angeles & she is among the very best. The office is in Chinatown next to Yang Chow; a very authentic TCM office smelling of traditional herbal medications. She could tell from my pulse, fingernails, tongue & several symptoms, including extreme fatigue, exactly what what was wrong with me & my emotional state. She also successfully adjusted my hip for the first time in nearly a year. Even though I saw another dc about it, I still could not do a dead lift on my right leg & knew something wasn’t right. Today it is 80% better. Her sensitivity and intuition help her understand what is wrong and how to adjust/​treat. It is my first time ever having a female chiro and I am very pleased. I also purchased some herbal medications to detox my liver and kidneys and nourish my nervous system and emotional state. The electricity she added to the acupuncture for me worked great. It’s like acu on steroids. I’m going back Wednesday and now found 1 doctor to perform the 2 go-​to procedures I seek for healing. I should also mention that her prices are more affordable than other parts of LA where one is also paying for the higher rent of an office. It may not be Beverly Hills, but you will not pay those prices and she is even cheaper than other places I’ve frequented in DTLA — both acu & chiro. She charged me $ 125 for the combo and I feel it was money well spent — especially to heal my body from the inside out. The herbs I purchased also seemed to me to be much less expensive compared to other places.
If you can make it to Chinatown, the money you will save for the value of treatment is wonderful. I also saved time by getting both treatments in 1 visit by the same doctor! The gold line Chinatown subway stop is only 2 – 3 blocks away, as is the Dash bus. I went on a Saturday and after 2pm one can park at the Bank of America across the street for free. I’m grateful to Unilocal for helping me find 3,000 Years & Dr. Diep.

I was eating at my favorite phở spot in chinatown and wanted to find a local Accupuncture spot so I can get treated and get in a nice nap in the afternoon. Called this place and they welcomed me in right Away. I received an amazing acupuncture treatment and enjoyed my nap as well. Very friendly staff. Will be going back to them again.

I am an acupuncturist from NY (not licensed to practice in California), who got sick while in L.A., and visited Dr. Diep. She gave me a formula that ultimately made my condition worse, forcing me to resolve to antibiotics. As she was the healer in our dynamic in her office, I only humbly, briefly questioned the absence of one key herb from her prescription, and she reassured I did not need it. What I realized in hindsight is there were many more problems with the formula than just that one absence.
I came in for an acute throat condition and she never examined my throat. She did check my nails, pulse, and tongue, all diagnostic modules I am educated in as well, but both the verbal consultation and ultimate herbal formula lacked focus on my acute situation at hand. What’s more, the «$ 25 herbal consult» is rather misleading. There are walk-​in herbal consultation offices in Chinatown in NYC where they charge between $ 30 – 40 for everything. This one does not include the herbs. My final cost for a week’s worth of [the wrong] herbs was $ 71. Everyone makes mistakes. I’m sure she is a capable healer, but this one cost me a lot of money, as I don’t have insurance.

Dr. Diep is wonderful! I did the acupuncture and chiropractic combo and was satisfied with the price and the outcome. She gave me the eye opening truth that IM NOT GETTING ANY YOUNGER! And I say this with great intent. I really have to take care of my body now before I end up grinding it to the core a few years later. She amazingly knew what is going on with my body internally by examining my nails, pulse, body alignment, etc. I’ll be visiting LA often and I want to go back every time. I wasn’t able to get any teas or supplements at this time but I will next visit and give updates on that. Thanks again Dr. Diep!!!

I went to 3000 Years Health Center today and had the urge to write this review because I was so happy with the service. I first went about 2 and a half weeks ago. Dr. Diep could tell I was suffering from intense fatigue due to my weak pulse. I also have a variety of other issues that Dr. Diep could tell from the exam — bad circulation, poor digestion etc. Dr. Diep put together a tea for me. For the first few days, I didn’t notice a difference. But then by day 6 or 7, I suddenly realized my fatigue had decreased and I was way more productive! yes! I’m a writer and comedian so my energy is very important! As is everyone’s. ;) I came back to her today because by the end of the 2 week supply of tea, I knew I needed to keep doing it.
The great thing about Dr. Diep is she explains everything to you and I feel like she genuinely wants you to feel better. I’ve had some experiences with doctors where they keep wanting you to see them. No, she wants you to get better and move on with your life!
Also, I have been taking some supplements she’s prescribed and my nails are so strong! My hair is growing. My body is finally getting healthier after years of trying other crap.
If you are having an issue and haven’t seemed to find the cure, give this a chance!!! I feel such gratitude that I am getting my health, vitality, and life back.
Oh also! I got cupping done today for only $ 40. And we all know some people charge 100 for cupping. You really can’t beat this place ;)

I just re-​injured my back earlier that morning and was around in Chinatown. The pain was to the extent to where I wasn’t able to stand/​walk straight. Dr. Lien Ai Diep was able to see me right away (I believe I interrupted her lunch, sorry). Filled out some paper work and before I knew it, she was ready for me.
She provided me with some information that my chiropractor did not tell me which was great. The treatment she did was awesome and she readjusted me. Only flaw for me is that she’s in LA and I live in the bay. I would highly recommend her. She took the time to understand my pain and discomfort.

The best herbal store ever! I was in bad shape and they helped me tremendously! Special thanks to Dr. Lien… she is the best!

I was in desperate need of a chiropractor on a Saturday afternoon, found 3000 Years Health Center (which is luckily open until 6pm), and got much more than I bargained for.
The doctor was friendly, listened well, and explained her methods before treating me, making sure that I was okay with her methodology. Because she does not believe in adjusting «cold» without addressing the muscles, treatment always includes acupuncture, massage and a chiropractic adjustment. After the initial treatment, she reassessed how I was feeling and readjusted areas that needed fine tuning.
The doctor also used her knowledge to check other systems in my body and made recommendations for supplements to help improve my health.
This is a great place to go if you need multiple types of health care. I will definitely be going back.

I am AMAZED!!! I’ve had minor irritations many years, the doctors «don’t know why» …but I came to this place… did a whole body detox for a week, and then went onto the tea Dr Diep prescribed… BAM …GONE!!! No more inexplicable stuffs!!! I feel awesome… this is a miracle… she is amazing!!! Who knew?
She totally knew everything going on with my body currently and historically just by feeling my meridian points on my wrist and a couple of other minor things. A bunch of my friends come here now and swear by it! Each tea is specifically blended by an ancient apothacary. Okay, a very old Chinese man who uses ingredients shipped to US. Way cool.

This is the first TCM Health Center I have ever been to, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I saw Dr. Lein, and she was so helpful! She listened to the problems I was having with my stomach and she even informed me of a viral infection that I didn’t even realize I had.
The herbs she prescribed are working great! I have been drinking the tea for 3 days/​nights now and my stomach issues have decreased significantly!
I must say, she did warn me about the bitterness of the tea and it is so so so bitter! I let it cool slightly, it is still hot but not so hot that I can’t down it in one giant swallow. Although this custom prescribed herb tea is really gross, it does work and I am so thankful for that!
Although it takes me about 1 hr 30 min to get there via Metro Rail, I will definitely be going back if I have anymore issues in the future!

One of the best doctors I know, Friendly, experienced and truly cares for their patients. Highly recommended!
