Acupuncture & Wellness Center, Poulsbo, WA
When Robert Doane opened his Poulsbo clinic doors in 1997 with wife Anne Doane, it was with the dedication to helping as many people as possible to live healthy, vibrant and pain-free lives. To qualify as a practitioner of Chinese medicine, Robert and Anne each completed a 4-year Master's program in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. Their status as Diplomats of Oriental Medicine from the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) not only qualifies them in Acupuncture, but also in Chinese Herbal Medicine. This is a distinction important when considering which practitioner you want to work with. Post degree work, Robert went on to apprentice for years under masters of the medicine in their own right, Dr. Richard Tan and Dr. Zhang Wei Yan. The Acupuncture and Wellness Center, built in 2004, has since been serving the needs of not only the Pacific Northwest, but has additionally become a learning center for practitioners in over 40 countries. Physicians and Chinese Medical practitioners have come to study under the tutelage of the Acupuncture and Wellness Center to improve clinical outcomes for their patients.
