Speed Healing Center

I have work related shoulder problems and Dr. Linh is definitely amazing. I have known Dr. Linh for 8 years now. I first started going for a shoulder problem which he helped me to recover from, and now, years later he is helping me with my other shoulder and «Tennis Elbow» and I am doing much better now after only 8 treatments so far.
Incidentally I do have Kaiser but when I go to the «Physical Therapy Dept» their treatment is seriously inferior as compared to Dr. Linh. I would much rather pay out of pocket for his more efficacious services than to go through the scheduling hassles at Kaiser and waste my time on minimal (if any) results. I can clearly see what is meant by «Speed Healing». Ligaments and tendons take a long time to heal but he has it down to a science!

I’ve been seeing Dr Linh Nguyen for several months for lower back pain and for a knee problem. His care has been so helpful in relieving my pain. I highly recommend Dr Linh and his staff. :)

Went for first treatment last week for a crazy shoulder problem dating back to Oct 2011 and a migraine. After forking out most of my 3K deductible this year, and eh hello its only May. on CT scans, medicines, Dr visits to hear them say, OK now you need to see this other Dr, and so forth, he was the only one to suggest move your mouse from right hand to left, you are off balance and your right arm has no time to rest and recover. Much better then taking meds and having the side affects from those. And much much much better then cutting up both wrists for carpel tunnel surgery. His quiet demeanor is soothing and the needles are painless. Highly recommend.

Dr Linh Nguyen is truly a genious! He’s been treating me for over 3 years and I have come a long way — I feel much healthier and I know, in part, it’s due to Dr Linh.

Dr Linh Nguyen has been my savior for the past 2 years. Let me see… first time I came to him was when I slept the wrong way and couldn’t move my neck. He healed me fast, I feel 200% better after the first session, came 2 times and I was back to normal the next day.
Then I took up kickboxing and crossfit at the same time, this is when the problem started to arise. I sprained my ankles twice and both times, Dr Linh fixed it for me. I went back doing 24 inches box jumps on my crossfit session after sprained it a week before because of Dr Linh.
Then I took up Muay Thai, this is another level of soreness & pain altogether. I practiced Muay Thai clinch and sure enough, the next day I couldn’t move my neck again. So of course I called Dr Linh right away. He then suggested why don’t I come to see him more regularly to prevent injuries because I always came to see him when situation was dire.
So I did, I’ve been seeing him for the past 3 or 4 months. I still do my Muay thai & kickboxing and feel soreness here and there but nothing dire has happened. When I showed him the bruises on my shins for kicking thai pads & bags, he gave me chinese rubbing solution that really help to keep the swelling down. I am glad that I have Dr Linh as my workout routine truly take a beating on my body (though I love it).
I recommend my friend to see Dr Linh because she said she got severe headache every so often. She told me that she feels better just after one treatment with him. The best part is that my insurance covers my treatment and as long as I am staying active doing my workouts & Muay Thai, I will continue to see Dr Linh to ensure that I treat my muscles & soreness the right way as well as preventing dire injuries as it happens to most martial arts students.

So my «treatment» is done and my final bill came out to be $ 30 a visit. My insurance would not cover this kind of treatment so I had to pay out of my pocket. It would be nice if I was told of the price before going through five months of treatment. I would ask for the price on many occasions and he would always talk around it and say «don’t worry…» or «I’ll take care of it…». I thought I was going to get a good deal. My mistake… My «treatment» came out to be $ 30 a visit for about 20 visits which came out to about $ 600. Hardly a good deal and I definitely don’t feel as if I was «taken cared of». If I knew of the expensive price beforehand I wouldn’t have extended the treatment as he suggested. I probably won’t return. He is definitely a nice guy but my pockets aren’t deep enough to accommodate his prices.
My advice is to get a firm price prior to beginning any treatment. Do not assume anything and check with your insurance company prior to seeing him.

Update:
I see Dr. Linh from time to time for various needs and am always impressed by how he immediately gets to the core of an issue, makes a vast improvement relatively quickly and provides me with whatever herbs etc. that make a huge difference.
Such a better solution than typical «western» medicine.
As far as Stephen’s review, when he goes to traditional (western) medical facilities, doesn’t he have a co-​pay? Maybe he’s lucky and it’s only $ 10, but for most people it’s $ 25 – 35.
Should you have gotten distinct answers for your billing? Yes. Should you have asked your own insurer? Yes Should you be happy that you paid $ 30 per session instead of $ 80 or more per session? Yes — Priceless…
=====================================================
After watching movies showing a zillion needles put into people, I must admit I was reticent to try it. Now I must also admit that I’m at least 18 mos late in writing up after my first visit. My bad
I see Dr. Linh Nguyen (goes by Dr. Linh) periodically and it is not only painless but seems to solve whatever the issue is really quickly (TMJ, specific muscle injuries, goofy stuff) or put it into control really quickly (allergies)
Unbelievable how Eastern medicine works and how good Dr. Linh Nguyen is. HIGHLY recommended and am quite a beliver that I’d rather go to him first than to a traditional doctor for any health issue.
I just feel bad that it’s taken me all of this time until I’ve written him up.

Ha! This is awesome, I didn’t even think about looking up Dr. Linh on here.
He is an amazing ray of sunshine… if acupuncture is hype according to some peeps at least the faux therapy is more than enjoyable. I used to go every other week for a while but it’s to expensive for my current budget.
Don’t get me wrong he is affordable compared to other places and he is genuinely devoted to helping people out purely for the joy of it. He gives you Chinese herbs and medicine along with your treatment and the occasional chiropractic adjustment.
I saw him mainly for allergies… He can cure anything. Man after a couple of bad spills snowboarding with some sore muscles he can work it out. And if you are on the verge of getting sick, he can exorcise those bad vibes right out. Make an appointment and be patient.

I’ve sent about 12 people to Dr. Linh Nguyen. I would say he’s received a 97% approval rating from all of my referrals. This guy works miracles.

I agree with Hao L.
Dr. Nguyen is a wonderful healer and very personalble. I’ve been having issues with my left shoulder and decided to see Dr. Nguyen to help manage pain and with range of motion. I’ve already had a couple of visits with Dr. Nguyen and I have already experienced remarkable improvement. Visits to the Speed Healing Center are a compliment to the treatments I have been receiving from my chiropractor.

Dr. Linh Nguyen is basically our family acupuncturist. I’ve been to him several times throughout the years. Once was for pain management while a very bad sprain was healing. Most recently, he’s been helping to improve the blood flow to my muscles — and I can definitely tell the difference (running, etc. is less painful).
Dr. Linh Nguyen is fantastic, and very personable. I think he’s a great healer, and has a very gentle nature about him. I encourage anyone who is open to alternative medicine and looking for an acupuncturist to to give him a try.
I think his prices are also very reasonable. Not sure what insurance they take, I tend to just pay out of pocket because my insurance doesn’t cover it. I have some acquaintances who see other acupuncturists and they pay a lot more, but I don’t think there is any difference in the quality of care.
I believe they’ve also added a massage therapist to the staff recently.
