Dr. Liang is so thoughtful and knowledgeable. She healed my migraines that I've suffered with for years. She's helped me with hormonal imbalances and since I am post menopausal she is using acupuncture and Chinese herbs to speed up my metabolism and help me have more energy and hopefully lose weight! I even called her with a terrible toothache and she saw me the next day and used acupuncture to get rid of it right away! If there is something you need that she is unable to do, she will tell you, so I appreciate her honesty. Her office is clean and she is very kind. I recommend her very

A friend told me about Cupping, she has been doing to enhance the appearance of her legs. She swears by it, which of course had me looking for someone near my area. Fifth Av Ac, is centrally located, easily accessible, clean environment and the Doc is caring and understanding. Since cupping, I can honestly say, I hace seen a huge improvement on my legs. I do back and front of the legs, along with acupuncture. The best, base on your insurance, you will be responsible for your copay, plus a minimal fee, associated with the Cupping.
I'm looking forward to showing off my legs!

I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism / Graves Disease in September. My symptoms were insomnia, palpitations, hand shaking, overeating, missed period and puffy eyelid. I do see my endocrinologist who put me on meds but started coming to Dr. Feng for treatments. I have to say Dr. Feng has changed my life. Since I started acupuncture and herbal supplements I sleep like a baby, do not have palpations, regular period, do not overeat and my eye is 80% better. At the consultation Dr. Feng broke it down to me on how I have to treat my disease. Told me which foods not to eat and which to eat more

Despite being a non-smoker, I developed lung problems. Each physician I consulted had one remedy only: the prescription pad. While I do take my meds, my energy level was declining and friends advised me to see an herbalist. I have been treated by various Chinese herbalists. One Canal Street practitioner, in particular, was talented and I had good results for a time -- but he offered only one formula. If you had breathing problems, you got the same blend each week; after awhile, your body adjusted and there were diminishing returns. So I moved on. Each time, I would have a good experience ---

Dr. Liang rocks! Before I met her, I had consulted several western medicine doctors for an episode of severe headache that incapacitated me for days. I was treated for migraine with imitrex but it did not work at all. My pain was only temporarily relieved with various anti-inflammatory pain killers like Aleve. When the pain eventually subsided from its peak, I went to see more doctors and was only told that they did not really understand what the cause of the problem was. In one conversation, I was told that my symptoms did not fit neatly with any theory she had. It was not a good feeling for me

I had one acupuncture visit and was given herb pills. I cannot judge the success of acupuncture since one visit is not usually enough to treat any condition. I am disappointed about the herbs and the business in general. 3 out of 5 herb bottles i was given were 3-4 years past expiration date (2010 and 2011) but I have not noticed it because there was a hand written sticker on the bottle covering the expiration day so I pretty much finished taking them (they lasted about 4-5 days). When I brought this up to Dr. Liang's attention, her "resolution" was telling me that there is nothing
