 Your best bet is to ask this question on your local Facebook page. FB will be current, up to date, and have people familiar with your local area. Or you can call 1330 and ask for a recommendation.

 There are varying levels of active ingredient in nearly all oriental / Chinese medicine.  Is this something that concerns you?

 Avoid Jaseng like the plague, they're pricier than most places and will try to get you to take unnecessary procedures like a brain MRI.
