I have had chronic eczema for many years, and the recurrent flare-ups have been extremely distressing. This year, I came to the Dermatology Department at Yueyang Hospital for treatment. The doctor was not only highly skilled, but also immediately identified issues related to my constitution, and was extremely patient in carefully asking about my lifestyle habits. After two months of comprehensive treatment with oral traditional Chinese medicine and external washing therapy, the rash has now completely cleared, the itching has disappeared entirely, and my sleep quality has improved significantly. I am very grateful for the doctor’s compassionate care and medical expertise!

I have severe cervical spondylosis, with frequent dizziness and numbness in my hands, which has seriously affected my daily life. I found that the Tuina Department at Yueyang Hospital was well known on Haodf Online, so I came for treatment. During the consultation, the doctor was patient and thorough, with excellent technique. They accurately identified the painful areas and provided targeted tuina and acupuncture. After several recent treatment sessions, my dizziness has now completely eased, the numbness in my hands has disappeared, and my neck mobility has returned to normal. I am very grateful for the doctor’s excellent medical skill!

I have had chronic eczema for many years, and the recurring flare-ups have been very distressing. At the beginning of this year, I came to Yueyang Hospital for treatment. The doctor was not only highly skilled, but also accurately identified my constitution and the underlying cause of my condition. In addition, the care was extremely patient and thorough, and all of my questions were answered in detail. After several months of taking traditional Chinese medicine internally along with applying a topical specialty preparation, the rash has now completely cleared and the itching has fully resolved. My sleep quality has also improved significantly. I am very grateful for the doctor’s careful treatment, which helped me regain my health!

Because of severe cervical spondylosis caused by long hours of desk work, I often experienced dizziness and numbness in my hands. I booked an appointment with a specialist in the Tuina department at Yueyang Hospital. The doctor’s technique was highly professional and precise; each massage session was accurate and well-targeted. The doctor was also very kind and reassuring, calming my nervousness during treatment. After three courses of Tuina combined with acupuncture, my dizziness has completely resolved, the stiffness in my neck is gone, and all my indicators have returned to normal. I can finally work normally again. I highly recommend it!
