Beijing Chinese Medical Center — Local services in Santa Monica

Dr. Baolin Wu Gave Me Back My Life: By age 36, I had already suffered for at least 10 years from fibromyalgia - chronic fatigue, chronic pain, chronic headaches, adrenal failure.- just barely maintaining, feeling a shadow of my former robust self.

I had sought help from Western medical doctors, chiropractors, bodyworkers, nutritionists, psychotherapists & healers all with limited or partial success.

I meditated to find the right healer for me and I finally found Dr. Baolin Wu in Santa Monica, California. Dr. Wu gave me acupuncture, herbs and chi (qigong / chi kung). I also became a student of his, taking his Chi Gong and Feng Shui Workshops. I am happy to say that my strength, stamina and positive disposition are back to normal and I am symptom-free - no pain, headaches, no digestive problems, fatigue or memory problems.

I had been truly fearful for my life and future before I met Dr. Wu. Now, I see a bright and happy future for myself. Dr. Wu has been a godsend. I cannot thank him enough.

Dr. Wu is a former Taoist monk, raised in the White Cloud Monastery near Beijing, China and trained in medical Chi Gong. He is both Western and Eastern Medically trained, holding an Eastern Medical License from China, and a Ph.D. in neurophysiology and a Western Medical License from Japan. He is a true rarity - a once in this generation trained healer, an extremely gifted Doctor as well as being an expert in the art of the I Ching and Feng Shui as well. I also highly recommend his workshops / classes for Chi Gong and Feng Shui.

Patients must be patient as the work is very subtle, gentle but very effective if you stick exactly to what Dr. Wu prescribes. I have seen miracles happen within myself and within other patients of Dr. Wu and I can definitely say that there is hope for others. I highly recommend Dr. Wu and am eternally grateful to him for helping me restore my health.

Now at 59 years old, I continue to see Dr. Wu regularly for acupuncture, herbs and teas and have almost fully recovered from a very bad leg and back injury, sustained from an ocean accident in Hawaii, that was causing constant pain and difficulty in walking and am also addressing hormonal changes as I go through menopause. I have experienced great improvement in my overall functioning and reduction in leg and back pain.

I see myself following the customary Chinese practice of working on prevention and maintenance as much as I can and having Dr. Wu as part of my "team" has been extremely beneficial, and for me, essential. I continue to highly...

I was referred to Dr.Wu by another healer who I had met in the community. He does have a lot of experience in the medical field however the system at which he runs his office is completely focused on maximum profit gain with very little care of the actual experience for the client- when we arrived the next thing besides signing in was asking immediately for our money.

Speaking with one of his assistant translators is fine, however diagnosing and talking about very personal matters in the middle of the reception area in order to hustle as much people into the other acupuncture rooms is completely inappropriate and unprofessional. Not only were we talking about very private health matters, but we were repeatedly interrupted by other patients coming in, he left 3 times to do acupuncture on other clients while we were in the middle of discussions. We were there for over 3 hours, we waited 1 hour for him, got told to just pull own pants and lay down on the bed without any introductions to the doctor.

We got asked to pay 75 additional dollars for a tea that he brewed which did not have any ingredients listed and only told that it was for “hormones” but I saw every single patient being prescribed the same thing. Then bottle of pills that I noticed they peeled the sticker off and put their own sticker on it also told it’s for “hormones” Unprofessional.

I am also a healer and also Chinese, and it’s sad to see a person with so much ability be completely...

Dr Wu is a consummate professional of the highest order. His dedication to his work and helping others in all encompassing; not just as an acupuncturist but as a teacher. He has helped many of my personal friends and clients alike overcome a myriad of different medical and emotional balance issues. Having known him for almost a decade I would say he has helped many people I know, avoid a lot of pain.

My own experience is I would say too hard to describe, or perhaps at least too personal for a public forum; but I would say that he has my deepest respect and gratitude. Not only for helping me but for all the loved ones around me; and my professional clients over the years. If you are have an opportunity to get an appointment with him, I would say go for it. I have never seen anything but the maximum effort from him to truly help others in...
