ACCUPUNCTURIST IN NORTHERN NEW JERSEY

[wprice]

Anybody have any thoughts on a reputable accupuncturist in the northern nj area ( Bergen County)who has a MD or a DO degree

[metronycguy]

having a MD degree does not in any way make them a good acupuncturist or a better acupuncturist than someone that has gone to school and certified in china. i use to think the same thing until i found out a MD who decides to take up acupuncture as a business only needs a low number of hours of training, a acupuncturist trained in china i think needs over 700 hours of training. i 've hear from the trainers that quite a few of the young Md's are there just to get their ticket punched so they can treat and BILL , they are not that interested in the whole learning process.
the ones that train in china are the ones that i would recommend

Many people's insurance will only pay if this is provided by a DO or MD. I suspect this is why willypx is asking.
