Weng’s Acupuncture & Herbs Clinic

I highly recommend Dr Weng for acupuncture. She is so caring, honest and knows how to listen. Her staff are great and they even take insurance! I couldn’t believe that so its more affordable. It’s a great place to not only heal but get good advice to live a better life.

Dr Weng is amazing! I had taken my husband to about 13 different physicians before a friend recommended Dr Weng. Within three sessions he said he felt like a different person. Dr Weng knew more about what was causing his problems in 10 minutes then 13 different physicians in 5 years. I highly recommended her to anyone who is looking for help with an ailment no one else has been able to fix.

Read other positive Unilocal reviews, so I thought I’d try Dr Weng. I will NOT be returning.
It took me two weeks to get in for first appointment. This office is VERY busy, which is wonderful for this business, but not so great for new patients.
Arrived a few minutes early and was greeted by a very friendly office person. +
Waited for 40 minutes before I was seen —
I’ve had acupuncture treatments for over 5 years with the same acupuncturist. We talked for 15 – 20 minutes each session and she assessed me emotionally and physically. It was a very spiritual experience. I moved to San Diego from another state which is why I tried Dr Weng
We only talked for 10 minutes and this was after my 40 minute wait. She asked me the same questions multiple times and I felt like she wasn’t listening to me. I followed her down a hall and she wasn’t even sure which room was free or clean. Then said, lay down and pointed to a paper covered bed. Nothing spiritual or energy based in the experience.
The WORST part was the acupuncture. Like I mentioned, I had treatments from the same acupuncturist for 5 years and I NEVER felt pain when the needles were inserted. Dr Weng was so aggressive that I literally cried out in pain! EVERY needle inserted was painful. I was SHOCKED! She poked a bunch of needles in my scalp, said pray, and left. It was weird and rushed and not relaxing at all. I’m usually so relaxed and meditative during acupuncture sessions that I reach a very Zen place and often fall asleep. Dr Weng inflicted pain and abruptly left.
After about 10 minutes I willed myself to relax and then the room door opened and someone popped their head in for no reason I know of. Serenity lost. Next, I overhear the constant ding of various timers going off. Then, I hear someone in another room talking on their mobile. Mobiles were NOT allowed on in my previous acupuncturist’s office.
I was never able to relax.
After some time, Dr Weng came back in, removed needles, and left. Someone I had not seen said, «okay. Goodbye» to me without even looking at me. Again, weird.
No one was at the front desk when I walked into the lobby, so I could have just left without paying. I have too much integrity to do that.
As I was waiting for the credit card to run through, I casually ran my hands through my hair and the front office worker asked, «Oh, did you find a needle? She leaves those in there a lot.» I just stared at her thinking WTF?!? Part of acupuncture is the order you put in the needles and the order you take them out. AND, oh yeah, removing all needles.
I really, really wanted to like Dr Weng, especially after reading such positive reviews and because I am in need of a good session. In general, I highly recommend acupuncture for physical and emotional healing. I cannot recommend this Dr or office (other acupuncturist and chiropractor housed there). This was the WORST acupuncture session I’ve ever had.

I’ve been using acupuncture for over 25 years for various neck, back and muscle ailments. I’ve seen many acupuncturists over these years until I found Dr. Weng. My search is over. For the last five years I have seen Dr. Weng exclusively for all my medical needs. She is not only a skilled acupuncturist, she is a genuine healer. The experience is more than just clinical needles, it is a spiritual event. Dr. Weng has a keen insight that comes from years of experience and a unique connection to the energy that surrounds us. I’m 56 years old and still play racquetball, basketball and golf on a weekly basis. I owe my ability to still play these sports to Dr. Weng’s unique skill set. For muscle pain, back aches, stress and even relationship issues, she never fails to make me feel better instantly. A higher recommendation I cannot make. Dr. Weng is the real deal. So very blessed I found her.

Dr Weng is so good. I love her way of healing. Pure and simple. She has such a sweet spirit. She was referred to me by a friend that has used Dr Weng for years.

Another LONG overdue review…
Dr Weng is a HEALING GODDESS! I credit her with helping to break me out of a very challenging period in my life… I literally felt 15 years younger after my first treatment with her!
My backgournd is in chinese medicine and I have seen MANY acupuncturists since 1991. Words are not adequate to describe what she does, but I would just say that she is an extremely loving, gifted, dedicated, and intuitive healer. I had 2 different people implore me to go see her because she had helped them release some negative energy and emotions from trauma they had experienced. That got my attention! So, I decided to pay her a visit.
Healing is SO much more than just relief from physical symptoms, and I can honestly say that I felt much lighter, more relaxed, and an almost child-​like carefree spirit in the susequent weeks after her treatment and in the follow up visits. I followed her recommendation and went regularly; I did a series of treatments for about a month.
I consider this to be one of the most beneficial things I did in 2013-​a turning point in my healing.
Also, her rates are beyond reasonable! And, the location is NOT that far from central San Diego… it’s about a 15 – 20 min drive from downtown, not far from a few major freeways.
Give her a try if you are stuck emotionally physically in your healing journey OR if you just want to maintain your BEST level of health and energy!

Dr. Weng is absolutely amazing. She had given me some seriously profound experiences I’ve ever had in mental relaxation and what it’s like to let go.
If you are coming in expecting one thing of pain relief or something similar you will get it I am certain, but you will also get so so much more.
When you arrive you open her front door and the fresh soothing aroma gently fills your senses and you are greeted quietly and kindly. Automatically you are in a sacred place.
Once you’re checked in and the Good Dr. is ready to see you they’ll show you to a clean and very private room where if you’re a lady like me you come down to your bra and panties. Don’t be alarmed, the beds are warmed and their are cozy blankets and heaters to keep you at maximum comfort.
Dr. Weng comes in and greets you and — with my experiences, she presents herself to you, and you tell her where you hurt — do you have a pinched nerve, or a sore knee or a broken/​sad heart? She will gently lay you down and she will chant, hum, sing and oM as she deftly places needles in your meridians.
I have seen her many times and the first time was so profound, I must give you the short version of my story: she had come in, and I had suffered a great loss in my life and my heart was very heavy. She listens without any words being spoken and she is truly genuine. She laid me down after taking my pulse and listening to my energy and asked me what was hurting me. The very last needle she placed was in my left wrist and this avalanche of emotion swept over me and I started to try and hold back my heavy sobs. She assured me to let go and cry as I needed to. She was incredible. Any thing you feel — don’t hold back!
That session I did with her was the most relaxed and relieved I had ever felt in my life. I went back multiple more times after and got serious satisfaction from her sessions.
She is so comfortable to be around.
I noted and discovered after a few months that her 2 daughters work along side of Dr Weng also! What a treat — one session her daughter gave me a treatment and I was equally impressed.
Moral of the story: go, be impressed. do some home work before you go on the epic benefits of acupuncture. It’s incredible and so blissful.
Namaste.

Dr. Weng is amazing! After almost a week of not being able to move my neck due to muscle spasms, she was able to help me find some relief. I will definitely be back.

I had never been to a chiropractor before was a bit scare but Audry made me feel comfortable. She is so welcoming and has a great energy. I have been going to almost every week I feel great! I highly recommend this family owned business, they truly care about your health. When you please buy there aromatic mist its smells GREAT!
Parking can be challenging BUT there is always space in the back.

My migraines are gone! Love this place. I highly recommend.
Through chiropractic care and acupuncture, I am now drug-​free. I love that I can just live my life and not worry about getting a migraine headache.

What a find! If you live in East County (or even if you don’t, like me) this place is a great place to go to be alternatively treated for about anything.
There is acupuncture and chiropractic, my mom found this place and has Kaiser and they accept it. I’ve been to the chiropractor who talks to my body and is wonderful.
They also use really good products and the herbs they prescribe are top in the industry.
Over all very impressive.

Very helpful for health problems!
