Cao is amazing! He talks you through each needle insertion letting you know what he’s targeting and the benefits that it will cause. His electro-acupuncture technique causes almost immediate relieve. So happy with the service he provides.

Patient, kind, informative, gentle, friendly yet professional! Reasonable out of pocket payments if insurance isn't accepted
Highly recommend.
June 21, 2025Rosalyn W.Verified patient
The office could use some dusting and organization. When I got there, there was no one to greet or check me in and when the provider came out, I was not acknowledged. He got the other patient settled in and then came back out and spoke.
Other than that it was a good visit and I would recommend.

Dr. Cao was attentive and patient with me, as this was my first acupuncture treatment. I had a great first visit and immediately rebooked and I’m looking forward to my second appointment.

January 30, 2025Jeffrey Y.Verified patient
This was my first time getting acupuncture. Dr Hanbiao explained everything in detailed. He seemed genuinely interested in helping me accomplish what I am seeking to accomplish through acupuncture. The session was not painful or unbearable. I even feel asleep at one point. Definitely will continue with the sessions.
November 1, 2024Tanya L.Verified patient
Dr. Han was very professional. He welcomed me to his office. I did not have to wait to be seen, once my paperwork was filled, I was seen by the doctor. He listened to my concerns and he explained everything in detail. He explained the treatment before it was started. He is very kind and a gentle doctor.

I had a lovely first experience with Mr.Hanbiao, even from the very beginning he made sure I understood exactly what the insurance would cover and what would possibly be my financial responsibility before starting. He listened to my areas of concern and let me know what could be done. The process was painless and peaceful, I’ll definitely be back!
August 2, 2024Kimassae B.Verified patient
Excellent Dr. I would recommend Dr Cao.
July 24, 2024Mary H.Verified patient
Dr. Han was considerate, thoughtful in his approach, timely, and well-respected as people popped into his office and were met with professionalism and care. I was recommended by my sister and would absolutely recommend other people, especially femmes, to consider this office for treatment.
July 2, 2024Eryn W.Verified patient
Prior to my visit I received a text message from Dr. Han confirming my appt. I have been searching for an acupuncturist who is interested in learning about my health and how they could help. As soon as I entered the office, Dr Han greeted me and reviewed my health forms. He listened carefully and asked questions about my health and previous types of therapy. He explained the treatment prior to getting started. The room was well appointed, and Dr. Han made sure I was comfortable on the table by adding a pillow, dimming the overhead lights and playing peaceful music. His knowledge and competence created a very healing environment. He checked in on me during treatment. I had been with the same acupuncturist for five years before I moved. I have visited two acupuncturists in my new location, but they were not a match for me. I am thrilled that Dr Han will continue treating my pain and most importantly my well-being.
