Dr Kim is full of wisdom and insightful knowledge. It only took two weeks of acupuncture treatment, taking the recommended supplements and implementing changes to my diet for me to feel so much better. I cant remember the last time I slept so consistently well on a daily basis! In turn my energy levels have improved, and I have a more positive outlook on the day to day trials of life. As someone who cant (and didn't really want to) take HRT, Dr Kim has given me a natural approach to managing the impact of menopausal symptoms with real positivity. Highly recommended!

Highly recommend! Very knowledgeable and helpful. I’ve only seen him a few times and I feel so much better, he helps you get to the root of the problem using natural methods. If you’re having problems and your doctor is not helping you or not listening, I highly recommend making an appointment at the Dashan Clinic. I don’t think I’d go to my GP again, I’ll always rather check with Dr. Kim. You feel revitalised after having the acupuncture done. You feel like he really cares, whereas regular doctors are just interested in pushing chemicals that will cause even more problems in the long run and have no interest in finding the cause of your issue. If you unsure whether to make an appointment with Dr. Kim, there is no reason to be worry, you will be so happy that you did! I suddenly in the last year had terrible acne, I didn’t want to leave the house, I would wear my hood up even on sunny days when walking my dog. My acne is going away and he’s given me so much information that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. He is truly amazing!Moreexpand_more

I started seeing Dr Kim a few weeks ago for uveitis in my eye, suffering with horrible pain and inflammation. He has helped me immensely with pain reduction and quickly helped to resolve the inflammation. I have been having sciatica pain too and he has also tailored the treatments to help me with this. He is very kind and is very flexible with treatment times, seeing me urgently when I was in a great deal of pain. His treatments are also very thorough. And he is very knowledgeable. The treatment room is also nice and clean as well. I would very much recommend Dr Kim. He is definitely the best acupuncturist I have seen.

I visited Kim in the hope he could help with what were extremely painful monthly periods. With regular acupuncture, changes to diet and specific supplements suggested by Kim, I’m now experiencing up to 90% less pain. Kim is very good at what he does; I would highly recommend him.

I had a problem with my Achilles Heal for over 2 years, got an injection which relieved the pain for 3 months and ended up back where I started in pain again. Was taking paracetamol and ibuprofen 3 to 4 times a day. Had treatment at the Dashan clinic in Epsom and my ankle has been pain free ever since and no pain killers. Brillliant.

Going to the Dashan Clinic was the best decision I ever made. I had been fighting Chronic Lyme disease for years and had been healing naturally. I was doing well but hadn't quite found the right healing regime for me. A friend of mine recommended I visit Dr Kim as she also sees him. Even from the first appointment and finding out my type and what I should and shouldn't be eating, I've progressed so much. And the acupuncture is amazing. I feel like myself again and I'm really enjoying life. Dr Kim is so friendly and helpful and if I have any questions that I need answering, I text him and he always replies promptly. I would highly recommended that if you have any health issues, then give Dr Kim and the Dashan Clinic a visit. He's an absolute star ?.Moreexpand_more

Kim has been helping me with ongoing health issues relating to Lyme disease for 8 months. He has resolved lower back pain and has been teaching me about how to pace myself in order to move forward with my health. I have always found the benefits of homeopathy and acupuncture but this involves much more discipline and Kim will always remind me if I am going off track? . I can still work and my symptoms of tinnitus and cystitis have greatly reduced as long as I pace myself! I will update my progress in 6 months ? .

When I came to see Kim for the first time I had hit rock bottom. I’ve suffered with mental health issues since I was 16 along with numerous health issues but In 2020 suddenly I developed some more serious symptoms and I was unable to work and live. I went to numerous doctors and natural practitioners but no one could help. I had daily migraines, tinnitus, severe fatigue, twitches, panic attacks, depression, anxiety, OCD and I was also experiencing hallucinations and disturbing sleep issues. I was really convinced that life wasn’t worth living anymore. I’ve now been seeing Kim for 5 months and week by week my health is improving. He does weekly acupuncture and herbs as well as a different way of eating. My migraines have completely gone along with my sleep issues, hallucinations, Depression, anxiety and OCD. My overall outlook on life has improved so much and I’m able to work consistently and enjoy things again. Dr Kim is extremely dedicated and knowledgable. He genuinely cares about his patients and he asks so many questions each session about my condition to ensure he is treating in the right way. I am so glad I’ve met Dr Kim and would highly recommend his services.Moreexpand_more

I began visiting the Dashan Clinic after developing mentally debilitating muscle twitches that began in my eye lids and then sprung up in many different muscles in my body causing me distress and depression for 8 months. I had seen around 5 different GP’s, 2 NHS neurologists, 2 naturopaths, 1 osteopath and 1 veer expensive chiropractor spending well over £1k over the 8 months. None of the suggestions or diagnosis from these many medical professionals helped me at all with my symptoms. I was at rock bottom mentally and felt tortured on a daily basis. In the 9th month after a meeting with another naturopath I contacted a friend who had some great results with the Dashan Clinic after suffering from a different condition. I was so down and in need of help I went straight from that meeting to my very first appointment at Dashan Clinic. I was sceptical but ready for a change in fortunes. I was so ready to believe I could improve. However after a few sessions I felt no improvements and began to loose some faith. Dr Kim became aware of my loss of faith so he explained the recovery process to me and suggested I had some patience. I decided to take Dr Kim’s advice and gradually over the next few months I began to have more and more days were my symptoms were reduced. Over an 8 month period my symptoms got less and less intense until finally they were reduced to an intensity that I found much more liveable. Now the symptoms I thought would never give me peace are very faint compared and I owe it to Dr Kim and his treatments and advice.Moreexpand_more

I have had symptoms of lymes disease and fibromyalgia, suffering with chronic health fatigue, brain fogs, muscle/joint pain and really bad insomnia. I was recommended to Dr Kim and I have seen him approximately 8 times over a period of approx 2 months. He recommended a particular diet of foods I can and can't eat and also recommended a shed load of supplements for me to take. He spends over an hour with me per session doing acupuncture and wet cupping which I have found very helpful. Even though it is early days my fatigue/brain fog and insomnia have improved loads and we are still working on my muscle pain. It is a shame I don't live nearer as I'm finding it's becoming too much for me to make the journey. He's prices are very reasonable and I would strongly recommend him.

My 11 year old daughter has been suffering with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/suspected Lyme for over a year (stomach pain, crippling fatigue, headaches, insomnia, fever/shivers, muscle/joint pain, dizziness, nausea, heartburn, brain fog, jaw pain, swollen glands and numbness in her fingers). She hasn’t been well enough for school for 6 months and, although she is under the hospital, there was no treatment other than sleeping tablets. I was desperate to help her but didn’t know how. Six weeks ago, Dr Kim was recommended to me. I was sceptical about Chinese medicine, but willing to try anything to help my daughter - despite us living 120 miles away and needing to make frequent stops for my daughter to throw up - so a 6 hour round trip! But, we are now 6 weeks in and we go to see Dr Kim every week because the improvement in my daughter has been phenomenal! She walks her dog daily in the park, has been on shopping trips, on her trampoline, started back at school…We know we still have a way to go and she is far from better, but results have been so positive in such a short period of time. The problem I now have is stopping her from over doing it! Dr Kim gives you a strict food list to follow according to your body type, a list of supplements to source and an acupuncture session each week. He is very experienced in what he does and makes a lot of sense. He is so understanding, really listens and has such a gentle manner - I couldn’t believe how easily he persuaded my daughter to have acupuncture at her very first appointment. Dr Kim treats the symptoms and not the illness. I cannot recommend Dr Kim highly enough. .Moreexpand_more

I went to see Dr Kim following a heart attack, which resulted in severe panic attacks. After a few treatments I felt much better and was able to sleep again without worry. Additionally, Dr Kim advised me on what foods I should/shouldn't be eating along with advice on vitamin supplements to take. I highly recommend Dr Kim, he is very professional and clearly knows what he is doing. Thank you so much Dr Kim.

Dr Kim was recommended to me as I was attempting to recover from a debilitating neurological condition caused by early Lymes, back problems and extreme fatigue. I credit him fully with putting me back on my feet and giving me my health back. He is insightful, kind, respectful and very experienced. I see him often and experience immediate and lasting benefits including better sleep, less symptoms, and much improved general mental health. Perhaps the main thing is to have someone alongside you who supports holistically you for who you are- understanding that root causes maybe very different from the symptoms they produce. My gratitude to Dr Kim knows no bounds and I'd recommend him to everyone with any health issues.

When I first came to see Dr Kim in August 2018 I was so ill I was practically bed bound after suffering from Lyme Disease for nearly 13 years. I genuinely believed at age 28 after battling year in and year out, trying everything and anything that might provide me some relief from my debilitating physical symptoms that I may never be well enough to leave my home unaided again. I was in despair and my natural happy go lucky disposition had completely disappeared. 5 months later after weekly acupuncture, supplements and dietary changes my life has transformed. My daily migraines, stomach pain, back pain are gone. My frequent ear infections and urinary tract infections have gone. My skin has improved, my eyes are brighter. I can think with clarity again and my fatigue is significantly reduced. I socialise again, I walk, I swim, I practice yoga, I read books, I think, I laugh, I draw, I dance. Dr kim has given me the greatest of gifts any practitioner can give his patients, he has given me the chance to live instead of merely exist. I thoroughly recommend him for any ailment you may have no matter how small or great.Moreexpand_more

Kim has been treating me for chronic Lyme disease for about 18 months now and have seen a huge improvement in my overall health. I was experiencing chronic fatigue, chronic muscle and joint pain, numbness, vision problems and a whole host of other issues. With changes to my diet, herbal supplements and Kim’s treatment, the majority of my symptoms have gone/improved dramatically. I’m back at work part time and my health continues to improve. Friends who have seen Kim for various injuries or chronic conditions are also experiencing benefits. Kim is very knowledgeable and understanding and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone.

I was diagnosed with Lyme Disease in February 2017 and was very very sick with multiple symptoms. Including, fatigue, joint pain, anxiety, depression, nerve pain, nerve twitching, gland pain, and probably more! I found out about Kim in June and whilst I made some improvements from February till June I've made an amazing rapid improvement from June till now. Kim changed my diet straight away and stopped my muscle twitching in 1 or 2 sessions! Now Kim has helped me in every aspect of my recovery, from dealing with past stresses, my muscle injuries or pains I've gained throughout the years being a dancer and my fatigue and overall pain from the Lyme bacteria has decreased massively. He totally understands the complexity of Lyme disease and how traumatic it is on the mind and body. As a Lyme sufferer I can't imagine being with any other doctor and would highly recommend him for any other ailment too!

After 2 years of stomach problems, no diagnosis apart from gastritis, very low energy and weight loss, I heard about Kim from a friend and made an appointment. 6 months' later, my stomach issues seem to have been resolved, I have lots of energy and my hairdresser says my hair is thicker! I had no idea about the benefits of acupuncture and kinesiology, but all I can say is that it has worked for me. I followed the recommended diet for my "constitution" rigidly for 6 months and have been taking the herbal supplements too, but am now able to introduce some foods which are considered harmful for me with no ill effects. Very good value too.

My son has had every test under the sun within the world of conventional medicine for his lack of focus at school and lack of energy for sports. He is only eight and the final outcome was that he was unfit. He hasn't been able to sleep through the night and this has added to his tiredness. A friend recommended Dr Kim and I wasn't sure as I've never ventured into Chinese medicine before and found it hard to believe it could achieve something that the many doctors hadn't. With just one visit and a week of eating the correct food for him and his energy levels and concentration has dramatically improved. I wish I had seen Dr Kim 3 years ago!

I had a pain in my lower back for three weeks which was getting worse with each passing day, I browsed the internet and came across the dashan clinic which was near where I lived. After just one session my back was much better , dr Kim is very good, and would recommend him to my friends.
Gemma Watkins
Epsom
I started seeing Dr Kim after another bout of vertigo and sickness. This left the tinnitus in my right ear worse and the sensation of fullness worse. My hearing has also decreased. I had sought help via the GP but nothing really helped. After a recommendation from a friend I arranged the appointment and he saw me that day. Dr Kim went through my symptoms and also uncovered symptoms I was not aware of. After 3 months of treatment I fee so much better. My hearing and tinnitus still affect me but nothing like before, however my energy levels and general feeling of well-being plus the fullness in my ear are all greatly improved. I definitely recommend Dr Kim.
