My Story
While I was growing up, my parents were firm believers that Chinese medicine could naturally heal many illnesses. Indeed, my youth was scattered with moments such as when the Chinese doctor prescribed an herbal formula that resolved my cough and when the bonesetter applied a medicinal plaster to heal my ankle sprain. But what I remember most prominently from my childhood are the countless late nights of work that my immigrant parents endured. And that had a lasting impression on me. I got the sense that financial wealth was paramount to everything else. As a result, when I grew up I spent years working on Wall Street, intensely focused on making money and ignoring the fact that health is the one true wealth.
I’m a problem solver by nature and find great satisfaction in helping to come up with solutions. But I noticed that the problems I worked on in my corporate career were not meaningful in the big picture. The projects and assignments I undertook served to justify my paycheck and little else. Most people would be happy just to have a steady job, but I needed to make a change consistent with my values. So after more than a decade in investment banking, I changed careers and I’m grateful to now be supporting my patients with Chinese medicine.
Since then, I have learned how effective Chinese medicine has been for millennia and how it has taken a back seat to Western medicine only in the last hundred years. That is why I aspire to elevate Chinese medicine so that it becomes a primary care treatment of choice for all patients. As part of raising the standard of this medicine, I have developed specific treatment programs for my patients: Pain Away, Immune Support and Facial & Whole Body Rejuvenation.
It was only after 13 years on Wall Street that I found my vocation in Chinese medicine and natural healing. I am thankful to be in a profession that aligns with my values of empowering individuals to take charge of their own health.
