A free 30-minute in-person consultation with Dr. Lee. Talk through your history, your symptoms, and your goals — and get an honest answer about whether AcuSuccess is the right fit for you.
About this consultation
Many patients come to AcuSuccess after trying other treatments that didn’t fully resolve their condition. The free consultation exists for exactly those patients — to have an honest, unhurried conversation before committing to anything.
Dr. Lee will take the time to understand your full history, what you’ve already tried, and what you’re hoping to achieve. Based on that conversation, she’ll tell you clearly which service is the best fit for your situation — and what a realistic recovery timeline looks like.
There is no sales pitch. If AcuSuccess is not the right fit, Dr. Lee will tell you that too.
Dr. Lee reviews your symptoms, prior treatments, medications, and medical history in detail.
Together you explore what may be driving your condition — and whether precision acupuncture addresses it.
You leave with a specific recommendation: which service is right for you, and why.
Dr. Lee gives you a realistic picture of how many sessions it typically takes and what progress looks like.
What to expect
Simple, unhurried, and informative — here is exactly what your 30 minutes looks like.
01
Walk Dr. Lee through your condition — how long you’ve had it, what makes it worse, what you’ve already tried. The more detail the better. This is not a rushed intake form — it is a real conversation.
02
Based on what you share, Dr. Lee assesses whether your condition is a good candidate for precision acupuncture and which specific approach would be most effective for your situation.
03
You walk away with a clear next step — whether that’s booking a first treatment session, asking more questions, or simply knowing what to expect. There is no pressure either way.

I’d been in pain for two years and tried everything. The free consultation was the first time someone actually listened and mapped out a real plan. I booked my first treatment the same day.
S.K. · Carmel Valley · Back Pain → Resolved
Dr. Lee spent the whole 30 minutes on my history. She was upfront about what she could and couldn’t help with. That honesty is what made me trust the process.
L.M. · La Jolla · Chronic Pain → Managed
I came in skeptical. I left with a clear plan and a much better understanding of what was actually wrong. AcuSuccess was the right call.
R.T. · Del Mar · Neurological Pain → Relief
R.T. · Del Mar · Neurological Pain → Relief
Yes — completely. There is no fee, no credit card required, and no obligation to book any follow-up treatment.
30 minutes, conducted in-person at our Del Mar clinic. This gives Dr. Lee enough time to properly review your history and give you a meaningful assessment.
Any relevant medical records, imaging reports, or prior diagnoses you have. A list of current medications is also helpful. If you don’t have anything, that’s fine too — Dr. Lee will work from your history.
The free consultation is a diagnostic conversation, not a treatment session. If you decide to proceed, your first treatment session is booked separately.
Dr. Lee will tell you honestly. If your condition is better served by another approach, she will tell you that and, where possible, point you in the right direction.
