Deirdra Claiborne, L.Ac. was the first acupuncturist in California to work in a major university-teaching hospital, UCSF (University of California, San Francisco), with a staff of professors of medicine, emphasizing the treatment of chronic pain (arthritis, fibromyalgia, sciatica, back, neck & joint pain - tendonitis / bursistis and plantar fascitis). Due to her orthopedic knowledge, vast clinical experience of Chinese medicine, extensive studies in China, Deirdra successfully treated many patients who came to this clinic as a last resort for pain relief from injuries and chronic pain-related conditions. When Deirdra went into private practice, other major hospitals and medical doctors outsourced their patients to her because of her well-known pain relief program. Her other specialities include gastro-intestinal conditions, migraines/headaches, allergies, gynecological disorders, menopause. Deirdra also has a comprehensive facial rejuvenation program featuring the latest technology in microcurrent anti-aging treatment for the face with or without needles.

Dear Dr. Wang,
I fell in a shower and became paralyzed. I could not move my legs and it was very painful – I screamed and my neighbor came over and took me to Marin General Hospital. I was told that I may need surgery. I tried chiropractic and I felt worse. Prior to seeing Dr. Wang, I couldn’t get out of bed for 24 hrs. I had no control over my lower extremities and it took 2 people assisting me to get in to the Acupuncture Center. I felt better immediately after my first acupuncture treatment and after only five visits I was back to my normal activities including yoga. Years later Dr. Wang was able to help me with my severe menopause symptoms through his herbal remedies. I continue to refer patients to Dr. Wang.

“After major brain surgery, which left the left side of my face paralyzed and my left eye unable to close, Dr. Wang brought my face back to normal. My eye now closes, and he gave me back my full smile. I have since had another brain surgery and am now recovering from colon rectal cancer. Without Dr. Wang and his amazing skill as an acupuncturist, along with his positive sweet nature, I never would have had such miraculous recoveries. It has only been three months since my chemotherapy and radiation – nobody can believe how great I am doing. I have told all my friends and family. Everyone I send to Dr. Wang has amazing results. We are all hooked on him. He is my saving grace doctor and I will never stop going.”
~Buffy Stewart, singer and artist

Dear Dr. Wang:
I would like to express our deep gratitude and thanks for the wonderful work that you and your office did with us. We had tried for over a year to get pregnant, before we came to see you. We had tried infertility drugs and were beginning the IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) process, when I came to see you. After 2 months of working with you, and Deirdra I became pregnant. I could not believe it happened that quickly and that easily. I was 37 when I got pregnant. Our daughter was born 9 months later.
The second time we tried, I came directly to you and did not even try fertility drugs. After sorting out my cycle, it took 3 tries to get pregnant. This time I had faith right from the beginning. We now have a wonderful 22 mo. old daughter and are expecting our second one in 6 more months. I really appreciate your optimism, your concern and the dedication that you and your staff exhibited as my partner and I were on our journey. Trying to get pregnant is challenging and stressful and the whole process was much more enjoyable and serene because of working with you and your staff. Thank you again. We are so happy with our good fortune.

“I always return to the Acupuncture Herbal Center for my healing. I have recommended Deirdra to many people.”
~Ali Akbar Khan, World Renowned Musician.

“The natural grace of the office accentuates the healing quality of the practitioners.”
~Dr. Maud Nerman, D.O

“After just two sessions with Deirdra, I was able to walk a lot better without my crutches. My broken ankle healed faster than I thought possible!”

After trying to get pregnant for almost a year with other acupuncturists,I turned to Dr. Wang who specializes in fertility. He did not hesitate to tell me that he would succeed in helping me get pregnant. I followed his Remedies and could tell after my last treatment that my ovaries had been stimulated. Sure enough I was pregnant within one cycle. It was an amazing experience.
He is so positive, confident and reassuring. I have highly recommended him to many of my friends.

After spending 1 1/2 years trying to get pregnant I discovered Dr. Wang. At the time that I started to get acupuncture treatments my cycle was irregular and I had no visible signs of ovulations. Within three months that all changed and within six months I was pregnant. I now have a healthy and beautiful one year old daughter thanks to Dr. Wang.
I always feel like I'm in great hands with Dr. Wang and I always enjoy the wisdom he provides.
