“I’ve visited VUIM clinic on several occasions for constant fatigue, recurring migraines, and other stress related issues. I met with Chang and had a personalized consultation and self analysis. He then prescribed me a box (one month’s worth) of herbal meds and supplements in conjunction to my body, and it was probably one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. After taking the supplements, I’ve experienced a higher level of energy, and substantially less migraines without having to rely on taking pain killers on a daily basis. I’ve been going to see Chang pretty regularly for all of my herbal, acupuncture, and massage needs (they have separate massage therapists inside the facility). VUIM provides an affordable, professional, and clean environment for patients, and I’ve been consistently pleased with all of their services…whether it be herbal meds, acupuncture, or massages. Highly recommend”

“I’ve been a fan of acupuncture for a long time. I typically only go in for specific issues. What I love about this facility is the number of acupuncturists available to teat clients. I’ve been treated by Newton and Chang. I love the fact that I can book appointments online and fit it into my schedule. Living in the DMV area and having the long commute, makes scheduling difficult at times. With days that they offer late office hours and Saturday hours helps a lot. Plus it’s great that the office to relatively close to my home. In the past I would go to the acupuncturist in Rockville, MD, which was close to my previous office. Now I come here.”

“I’ve now been here roughly a dozen times over the last 3-4 months and I’m extremely pleased with the results. Newton, who has handled my work, is extremely polite, professional, and knowledgeable. And more importantly, he’s really addressed my pain to the point where I go weeks without an issue which used to occur daily. Very grateful for finding this place and highly recommend to someone considering acupuncture.”

“My long-time dream of becoming an Oriental Medicine Practitioner has gotten closer to a reality ever since I have joined VUIM.  I am very impressed with all the changes and improvements the school has made in the last year and is continuously making.  The caring atmosphere of VUIM has certainly been very assuring to me and I can only see tremendous possibilities for the further growth of the institution and I am happy to say that I am a part of it.  Sure, the program can be very rigorous and challenging but it sure makes the education we are receiving worthwhile.  So far, my decision to be a student at VUIM has been a very positive one!”

“I am glad I choose VUIM – it’s affordable and a good value for the money.  I like the flexibility of the school – you can progress as fast as you can or as slow as you need.  In fact, next year I may be taking the NCCAOM certification exam a year ahead of my graduation with several of my classmates.  I especially liked the good Foundations and Oriental Diagnosis classes I’ve taken.  My dream is to offer acupuncture as a service on a mission to a poor country.”
