“I started seeing Dr Scott Ling 12 months ago to help with my recovery from Gillian Barre Syndrome. At the time I wasn't well enough to go back to work and Scott asked me to give him 3 months and he will have me back at work. 3 months later I was back in the workforce and have been full-time for 6 months now. I highly recommend Scott and can't thank him enough.“

“Having scalp acupuncture with Dr Scott Ling for 4 months has been life changing for me in a great way. I've had MS for 21 years, been walking with a stick for the last 6 years, and now for the last month I am walking on my own again. I am going to the beach walking on sand and in the ocean, walking a dog on grass, gravel, stepping up gutters, and I have 2 free hands!!
Dr Scott has helped me physically improve my balance and leg strength, and emotionally change my living situation.”

“My Physio suggested I may have a circulation issue and should see a acupuncturist.
Did my research and found Dr Scott Ling at Sustain health. He quickly established I had a liver issue (I have non alcoholic fatty liver disease for past 12 years) and started treatment...
Took a independent blood test via my family doctor and the results are stunning.
After less than 2 months receiving the treatment and drinking to tea I no longer have a fatty liver!!
As a result I am... very happy to recommend Scott“

“Coming here has changed my path in life. Before coming here I had seen over 25 different acupuncturists around the world with a mostly positive experiences and have had a lot of references to compare to.
Scott works on a philosophical level in a way that has powerful and lasting changes. Most health practitioners work only on your body which is what you want in the moment. However, working with your mind and beliefs can change your life in a significant way.
Improving my health is what I came here for. Changing my path is what I came out with.“

“I have an autoimmune disease called Myasthenia Gravis... I made the decision to be treated by Dr Scott Ling... This has been one of the best decisions I have made for both my physical and mental health and well-being. My symptoms have eased significantly and I am now feeling like myself again... I have easily been able to reduce and nearly stop all medications.
I now feel empowered, confident, independent and happy... Dr Ling’s treatment is very non-invasive... I know this is something I need to continue so that I can live the best life for myself and my family.“

“Dr Scott Ling is by far the best doctor in melbourne. I went to some specialist medical centre to diagnose my nausea and vomiting sickness and found out they couldn't help so I found out sustain health clinic with Dr Scott Ling to diagnose my symptoms and works like a miracle, thank you dr scott without your expertise I wouldn't pass my 35th birthday.“
