    I had a sprain around my waist area and went to the clinic after seeing so many good reviews. Personally I would prefer an unhurried approach where the Dr could have spent more time explaining things before applying the needles although I'm not new to acupuncture. I didn"t feel like I was really cared for but rather rushed. They charge more than many other places. This is another reason I stopped going there.

    I went for acupuncture with acute pain when sitting in my left knee, but standing & walking fine no pain anywhere. I was given a very unexpected major crunch adjustment at end of first session & now have considerable pain standing & walking in knee. Also pain sacroiliac joint & in hip joint. I did go back for a second appointment but the damage is done & can't be sorted with needles. Now going to my osteopath & won't trust Dr Win again.

    I came to Dr. Win after years of visiting doctors and Naturopaths due to some sensations I was experiencing in my stomach and up towards my throat. I thought to just try out acupuncture and after the third session, I started to feel some improvement. I continued with 3 more sessions totaling to 6. I feel so much better now and my stomach is at so much peace. Dr. Win is very knowledgeable in what he does. I have no hesitation in recommending his clinic.

    I’ve gone through and read the 1 star reviews but my personal experience after going to him several times for health issues was always great. I haven’t had acupuncture before but I really didn’t mind being left in the room, to be honest I quite enjoyed the mediation. He would come back and move the needles which would send more pulses through those areas and leave again. I was totally happy with that. He did some moving cupping which was pretty uncomfortable but my muscles were super tight and we both laughed together about it. I feel he has been doing this for so long and has a real art for it that’s its second nature for him. He’s my go-to for acupuncture

    I have known Dr Win for almost 20 years. He is such a knowledgeable and highly skilled doctor,yet very compassionate and humble. He has helped me with various different health issues over the years and always came up with a clear treatment plan. I love that his TCM approach is so individual and successful . Dr Win really cares about his patients and I would give him 10 stars if I could. Thank you Dr Win.

    My family and I have been to Dr Win for over 12 years for a number of different aches and pains over the years and there hasn’t been a pain that he couldn’t relief. From back, sciatic pain to TMJ and stress relief, we have been to him for it all and we are so grateful that we found him.

    Dr Huang is truely a master in acupuncture and Tuina/chiropractic. I’ve had back injury for 2 years and went to a couple of other chiropractic specialists which didn’t help much. I had to hold the balustrades to go upstairs when I got into Dr Huang’s practice, after one treatment the problem pretty much had gone, I walked downstairs by myself. After 3 treatments, the problem all gone. without the sore back I felt like I was 10 years younger. Highly recommend Dr Huang to anyone has sore back.

    I highly recommend Dr Win. I was in Auckland for 3 days and saw me for a second appointment before returning home, which I’m so grateful for. My seized shoulder has disappeared and lower back pain for 3 years much improved. If I lived in Auckland I would be able to continue my treatment. I wished I never went to the Physio for all those sessions! Thank you

    I strongly recommend this clinic for pain relief and alternate treatment. Dr. Win and his team is very friendly and professional. I had extremely bad sciatica pain. I tried pain killers, physiotherapy and chiropractor but nothing worked. I was barely able to move for almost a week. I tried acupuncture and saw immediate improvement after the first session. I walked down the stairs as the pain became much more bearable. After a couple of sessions there was significant improvement.

    My confidence in, and recommendation for PhD Win Acupuncture is 100%. Two treatments from Dr Win = totally effective for my sciatic pain. Plus, a warm welcome and excellent service from the efficient receptionist too. Very happy!

    Life changing help with chronic pain and fatigue, Dr Win has gone the extra mile! Highly recommended! Pro tip: If you need help with complex issues and don't speak Mandarin, email or take a hard copy of case history with you for first consult. Dr Wins English is good enough, but written form makes it much easier for everyone at the start.

    I approched Dr. Win for my bad back pain with a friend's recommendation. I'm so much impressed by Dr. Win's exceptional skills and expertise. My back pain disappeared just after two visits to the clinic and it took another couple of visits to completely allow myslef getting back my daily workout routines. Something amazing is that I left feeling more rejuvenated than I have in years! I highly recommend Dr. Win to anyone seeking top-notch acupuncture care in Auckland. The results are truly remarkable, plus Dr. Win is also very generous on sharing life experience, giving advises on life style changing etc.!

    I came to doctor Win with "frozen shoulder": could not lift up my left arm and couldn't reach back, was painful to sleep on the left side because of it. After 4 sessions Dr. Win fixed my shoulder. Now I can move my left arm easily and without any pain. Big thank you!

    Phd Win 黄博士 is absolutely the best acupuncture doctor I have met. I was totally surprised as he made my intermittent shoulder pain ( over 5 years) disappear after only one session. The treatment process kinda hurts as he used an advanced acupuncture technique. I feel lucky to choose to go to his clinic, and definitely will recommend his clinic to anyone who is struggling with any illness. My boyfriend who has some issue with his hands and feet has decided to go to receive his treatment next time when we go to AKL. Luckily, it is only 3 hours drive from Tauranga to Auckland 😊

    After the third dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, I experienced severe palpitations for several months. My hands would tremble periodically, and at times, my abdomen and legs would shake intensely. I couldn't grip the mouse, and there were instances when I couldn't even type on the keyboard, let alone use my phone or write. After a significant illness with a positive COVID-19 diagnosis earlier this year, these symptoms resurfaced. In the latter half of the year, my hands trembled incessantly for one to two months. Along with this, I experienced insomnia, vivid dreams, nausea, loss of appetite, lack of concentration, forgetfulness, and almost caused several accidents while driving due to lapses in attention. Additionally, I had a persistent low-grade fever for three to four weeks. Seeking help from Dr. Win, I was surprised to see immediate results after the first treatment session. After completing a course of treatment, my hand tremors, palpitations, chest pain, low-grade fever, and insomnia all disappeared. I could resume normal work and exercise. I have many friends whose health deteriorated after contracting COVID-19, and sadly, some have even passed away. They are unaware of what's happening to them, and like me, they couldn't get concrete answers from their family doctors. If you find yourself in a similar situation, I highly recommend seeking help. I genuinely hope that those facing similar challenges can get the assistance they need! A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Win for making a significant difference in my life.

    After falling and hitting my head, I had concussion. Constant headaches, fatigue, forgetfulness and loss of balance. I was taking painkillers for 4 weeks. After my first visit I could turn my head and the pressure in my head had decreased immensely and has continued to improve. No more headaches, big thank you Dr Win.

  • 5/5 Helen F. 11 months ago on Google
    My father has had a very bad headache for several days, that he can't sleep at night and hasn't been relieved even after taking medication. Then I saw the introduction of Dr. Huang's clinic online and came with hope to give it a try. After two acupuncture treatments, the headache was relieved and my dad could sleep at night. After the third treatment, Dr. Huang helped me completely cure it, and after the third treatment, my father doesn't had any headache. Thank you Dr. Huang for helping my dad. Highly recommended and effective treatment.

    Dr. Win immediately helped us relieve the back and neck pain. Having tried everything earlier, just one session with Dr. Win helped relieve the neck pain a lot. Highly recommended.

    Went to Dr Winn on the reference of a friend. For bad circulation in my toes due to sitting all day driving, RSI in my shoulder. I have no problem after 2 visits with the circulation in my toes. RSI in my shoulder has really reduced the pain and stiffness in my shoulder. I have just gone back for 3 more sessions as it has been getting a little sore again. Definitely has improved with accupuncture from Dr Winn. Can highly recommend him.

    Doctor Wen really good at acupuncture and needle-knife, highly recommend! I had a very complicated wrist injury for 4 years, not just TFCC. A year after surgery my wrist still sore, and the pain changed, still couldn't use my wrist normally. I have seen so many experts but no body knows why and how to make it better. Then my friend recommend Doctor Wen, I didn't expect much, but after 2 times needle-knife treatment my wrist situation improved a lot, way better than before. Now I can use my wrist without pain, back to work, finally have a normal life. I am also having some Chinese herb medicine to improve my health conditions, I have so many other problems as well, it works well. Thank you, doctor Wen!

    I had a block on my right ear, it feel like when your on a plane and your ear is block. I went to the family doctor they gave me some pills and nose block spray and that didn’t do any thing. I found this acupuncture near my house online, they have really good reviews. So I want to try to fix my ear problem. The first session was amazing, I could hear clearer then when I first step inside. My right ear felt much better. I no longer hear sound in my ear and I can sleep peacefully. I really recommend this place if anyone have some sort of problem, Dr Win was so nice and funny, he is professional, effective and I have good experience, Thank you Dr Win for helping me.

    After half a year of CT scans and western medicine I've had no luck With finding the root of my left side pains. But after just 4 session of acupuncture my left pain is almost gone! Dr. Win Huang is an amazing doctor. The depth of Chinese medicine really is limitless. Thank you.

    My son had suffered from Juvenile Arthritis for almost one year, and had tried different medications yet the situation could not be controlled. He had to put up with pains and was even limping. I was heartbroken. However when I brought him to PhD Win to try acupuncture, cupping and blood letting therapy a week ago, he saw an instant improvement in the pain and he could walk normally almost immediately. It was really amazing! PhD Win is so kind, considerate and professional. His expertise makes the TCM shining and glowing. Thanks PhD Win!

    I would like to advise, that I am writing this review as someone who works in healthcare, myself. I booked an appointment with Dr Win for issues with constantly being unwell, however at the time of my appointment I was having issues with heart palpitations. I was diagnosed with benign ventricular arrhythmia (weird heart beats) after a nasty flu virus. I saw a Dr who prescribed me steroids and antibiotics to try help but this did not improve my symptoms. When I attended the appointment with Dr Win, I had the palpitations and chest discomfort for three weeks, but I was there to see him to improve my overall immunity. After one session of acupuncture and cupping, I woke up the next day and my palpitations and chest discomfort had disappeared. It has now been over ten days and the palpitations have still not returned :-) I had not advised Dr Win of my heart palpitations and he was treating me for my immunity but it resolved my issues anyway. I am seriously impressed and very happy at feeling improved, only after one session!

    I met Dr. Win after prolonged lower back pain. I was taking painkillers and other muscle relaxants for this problem, but they were not effective. Upon meeting Dr. Win, he did an initial examination and immediately recognised that my lower back pain is related to a joint problem, not a muscle or spinal problem. He advised me not to take any more painkillers as they are not effective with this specific problem. In just three acupuncture sessions with Dr. Win, my severe pain was completely gone and I now feel more strength in my back, plus I can stand and walk better than ever before. He not only helped with the pain but also worked to repair the dislocated joint. I recommend that you see Dr. Win for similar problems and perhaps other problems for which you are tired of repeating the usual treatments.

    Dr Win is incredible and has been helping with some unexplainable nerve damage on my leg. After being told a neurologist was the way to go by a GP, I have instead had four sessions with Dr Win and the problem has all but disappeared. Highly recommend for all your woes!

    Took my son to Dr Win after he endured years of suffering from Chronic pain. Fantastic experience - every time we went you could see the relief it provided. Over a period of about 6-8 weeks, 1 session per week he loosened the stress in his back which has made a huge difference to the occurrence of chronic pain. Haven't been for 5 weeks but we may need a maintenance dose soon, Highly recommended.

    I have long COVID and was starting to lose hope in finding any Doctor who could help me. I highly recommend Dr Win, after receiving treatment I am improving for the first time in 5 months. Treatment has helped improve the terrible chest pain & muscle pain that I have and my energy is slowly but surely improving. Very grateful and I can’t wait to see how much more I continue to improve.

  • 5/5 Angie B. 1 year ago on Google
    Dr. Win cured me of my painful shoulder, neck and arm and freed me of terrible migraines after only 3 sessions of acupuncture, cupping and taking Chinese herbs. He is incredibly experienced, compassionate and professional. Dr. Win talked me through the whole diagnosis, a treatment plan and what I should be doing to improve my lifestyle choices. I walked away from each visit not only feeling physically better but also empowered and confident about my conditions. Thank you doctor Win. Sidenote: the clinic is clean, the staff is friendly and there is parking upfront.
