Celeste,
hmm the Whampoa home-based sinseh operates out of a corridor HDB 3rm flat. Got certificates on the wall with picture of young man, but the sinseh is GONG-GONG age lor.
The living room is waiting room, with cctv. The sinseh in 1 bedrm, he watch the cctv to monitor who comes first, no need to take number haha. The sinseh takes pulse, do visual check of the kid, does acupuncture treatment (if needed), prescribes and measures out the medicine, and even take payment. ONE MAN SHOW!
There were other patients waiting when I reached, they only open 1-5pm btw, and advised to be early. From what I eavesdrop, one boy was coughing ONE YEAR before he came, and was listless the last visit... then now he run around! The sinseh was asking the mum, "now can run around, still come for what?", and the mum replied, "cannot ah... I thought see again, even better mah!". Another grandma travelled a long way from Tamps too, her grand-daughter says despite the distance, they came a few times cos can see results. What kind of results, I dunno, I eavesdrop only.
So there are people who trust him lor, despite this kind of HOME BASED SINSEH set-up. I'm unsure, if desperate, I will give it a go. But he said my 2 kids are actually quite well

, so I decided to not feed his concoction to Ahgirl, and feed reduced dosage to Ahboy. Since good health, no need to "risk", mah.
