A good acupuncturist must be a good Chinese medicine doctor who can evaluate a patient’s overall energy status before inserting needles, according to Dr. Jingduan Yang, chief executive officer of Northern Medical Center in Middletown, New York.
A fifth-generation Chinese medicine practitioner and a renowned acupuncturist on the East Coast, Yang took the helm at the center last year with a goal to develop it into a genuine integrative medical center, starting first with acupuncture.
