Services
Acupuncture
Acupuncture treatments use fine needles to stimulate specific points on the body, promoting natural healing and pain relief. This ancient practice helps with musculoskeletal issues, digestive disorders, and fertility support. Patients benefit from improved circulation and nervous system regulation through sessions tailored to their individual health needs.
Herbal Medicine
Customised herbal prescriptions combine centuries-old formulas with modern clinical applications. Our dispensary offers high-quality remedies for respiratory conditions, hormonal imbalances, and chronic illnesses. Each treatment plan considers the patient's unique constitution and health goals, ensuring comprehensive wellness support through natural botanical compounds.
Dermatology
Specialist dermatological treatments address eczema, psoriasis, and acne through integrated approaches. Combining acupuncture with topical herbal creams and dietary advice, we target underlying causes rather than symptoms. Patients experience improved skin health through non-invasive, steroid-free treatment protocols developed through decades of clinical practice.

Western medicine was not helping my long-term ezcema or frequently recurring cold sores so I turned to Dr Kevin. Ezcema now cured after a few months and cold sores are occurring a lot less frequently thankfully. Much prefer this method of treatment than topical steroids!

At first I was unsure about Chinese Medicine until my wife took me Dr Kelvin Duong, he was very understanding and explained the various aspects of treatment, first with herbal medicine and cupping or acupuncture if necessary, didnt enjoy the taste of Chinese medicine, but it worked wonders, recommend him highly.

I cannot recommend Bao An Tang enough. Dr Kevin and his team changed my life and have been continuing to keep me healthy since 2016. I tried every form of western medicine to no avail and was at my breaking point when I found this medicine centre. The staff are kind and incredibly talented. I have recommended Bao An Tang to everyone I know who has ever suffered with sleep or skin issues and will continue to do so. I am very grateful for everything Dr Kevin has done for me!

Dr. Kevin reassured me that I will be okay when I visited for a consult with the worst eczema and flare ups Ive ever had in my entire life. Being hopeless and new to Melbourne from another country, I took his word and eventually witnessed the swelling decrease and the itch gradually subside. Definitely give his herbs and cream a try!

I have suffered with ezcema all my life and as I have got older it has gotten worse on my face. I was in a lot of pain and very depressed about it. Kevin was a miracle worker. After his herbs and cream I am completely cleared up! I would HIGHLY. recommend his treatments for ezcema. He is amazing!!!!!!!

Report
I had been suffering with a rash across my forehead for almost a year. Despite seeing two dermatologists, two naturopaths and an integrated health doctor, nothing had helped to clear it. Within days of my treatment with Doctor Duong, my rash had started to clear. After a month, it was completely gone and I felt like myself again. I am so grateful to Doctor Duong and the wonderful assistants at his clinic. Thank you!
