    My HMO uses the unbelievably crummy Brown & Toland I.P.A., and Dr. Min is in-network with them (and their only L.Ac. near me). So I went to his office for an appointment. To begin with, Dr. Min has a very questionable mastery of the English language, both in speaking and comprehension. Then he complained to me repeatedly about the hassles he had to endure dealing with my HMO insurance plan (like I need to hear this--and then why did he bother signing up with them in the first place?). He also expressed pessimism that my condition could be helped now that I had had back surgery (so why would I want to keep going back to someone who has little to no faith that he can do anything for me?). But the down-side of those three things pale in comparison to the fourth.Dr. Min had me strip down to my underwear for my acupuncture treatment (which is not unusual, nor is it inappropriate). But after he removed my needles, he failed to close the exam room door--and I'm lying there nearly naked! As if this weren't a big enough breach of privacy, Dr. Min shares his office with two women who work in a completely unrelated field, so the door was left wide open for them (and anyone else who might have entered the office, as the floor plan is wide open and the exam room was right off the lobby) to see my nearly naked body!!I have seen a number of L.Ac.s in my lifetime. Never have I experienced anything like this. Can you imagine an MD leaving an exam room door open and just walking away while you're nearly nude? Well it's no less inappropriate with an L.Ac.

    I hardly ever write reviews on restaurants or movies, but I can't help to write my heartfelt feedbacks about Dr. Min, as I want others to receive the same help from him as well. Dr. Min rescued me from my chronic insomnia and migraine pain of nearly 15 years. Suffering severe insomnia and migraine for years, I received numerous treatments from many specialist doctors and experts, nevertheless the symptoms have not been improved but worsened. I had to live in misery on a daily basis. With hopeless in despair, I found Dr. Min of "ID Acupuncture" in San Leandro, referred by my health insurance staff. I thought I was going to give it a try as a last resort anyway. On my first visit on November 5th, 2018 at "ID Acupuncture" Clinic office, Dr. Min asked many questions one by one, took notes, paused for thoughts, checked on his charts, researched and continued to interview me for more questions in greater details. After 1.5 hour examinations, Mr. Min started to figure out a brief diagnosis and temporary treatment plan for immediate acupuncture and medicine. Before he started acupuncture, he explained to me his plan and iterated clearly the rationale of each acupuncture point and each medicine's purpose. During my acupuncture rest time, he would carefully prepared the Chinese medicine prescription and packed each in convenient powder sacks for me to take home. Dr. Min treats every appointment so seriously, carefully and responsibly. He would always spend ample time to listen to me, follow up the acupuncture effect from last time and medicine result before he continues the next treatment. He would patiently listens to my feedback and adjust the acupuncture points before action and switches to pair with the medicine for better results. During my past 6 week committed treatments, Dr. Min finally pointed out my medical issues and confirmed his treatment plans from each visit. His professional dedication, knowledge, skills, commitment and responsibility have deeply impressed me. His treatments have changed my life from miserable, less miserable to a normal person's life. I almost forgot how a normal person would feel without daily migraine headaches! I feel a blind person starts to see a glimpse of light and finally see the brightness! Dr. Min gave me confidence of my recovery. I was able to sleep approximate 6 hours nightly with his treatment. My headaches have reduced frequency from 7 days to 2 days and intensity from 8 to 3 (10 is most pain). He has exceeded his goal of 70% improvement. I could not be happier. To strengthen the success, I will continue Dr. Min's treatment of acupuncture and Chinese medicine for more weeks. Once again, I highly recommend Dr. Min for anyone who has any physical illness. He is one of the best and most dedicated and responsible doctors I ever see. His strong medical knowledge, high ethics, and sense of responsibility is highly respectful and valuable. He is a hard-to-find gem doctor. Thank you so much, Dr. Min!
