“I’m new to TCM. After being diagnosed with vestibular migraines, vertigo, and photophobia, I tried acupuncture after missing many days of work. My MRI was negative, but because prescription medications only made me drowsy without providing relief, I turned to TCM. I found DH Acupuncture, where Dr. Lee specializes in migraines and vertigo. Given his exceptional credentials, I went in with an open mind. By my fourth session, I experienced real relief: the vomiting subsided and—fingers crossed—the vertigo hasn't returned. I’m following his dietary advice alongside my active vegetarian lifestyle, and I hope to resume running after my sixth session. Dr. Lee is skilled, patient, and a great listener. His office is welcoming, the staff is highly professional, and the rooms are clean. I love the warm cup of tea at the end of each treatment. I will definitely continue seeing Dr. Lee—he is a gem!”

“I was diagnosed with vestibular migraines, vertigo, and photophobia, I decided to try acupuncture after missing many days of work. My MRI was negative, which was a plus, but there is really no "cure" for my condition. Prescription medications only made me feel drowsy without providing relief, so I figured, why not try TCM? I came across DH Acupuncture, which specializes in migraines and vertigo, among other things. Dr. Lee has exceptional credentials, so I went in with an open mind and no specific expectations. I am now on my 6th session and have been experiencing real relief. The vomiting has subsided and—fingers crossed—I have not had another episode of vertigo. Dr. Lee is very skilled at what he does; he listens and is very patient. The office is welcoming from the moment you walk in, and the front desk staff are all kind and professional. The rooms are clean, and he even provides a warm cup of tea at the end of each treatment. I will definitely continue seeing Dr. Lee—he is a gem!”
