What to Look for?

The right acupuncturistis compassionate. A compassionate acupuncturist is a team player. Choose a primary-care acupuncturist who will agree to keep the lines of communication open with other professionals with whom you are consulting to coordinate your care.

Ask yourself if it is imperative that you see an acupuncturist who does not accept (your) insurance. Are they really better than any other acupuncturist in your region, or just more convenient? If you are willing to travel, you may be able to buy a new car with the money you save.

Hopefully, the acupuncturist you want will accept you. However, they are legally allowed to choose not to accept a patient, as long as it is not discriminatory based on race, gender, sexuality, etc.

When speaking with the acupuncturist and the staff, do they appear to have biases regarding different types of people? As an example, looking down and speaking in a derogatory manner concerning overweight individuals. The acupuncturist should be able to maintain a professional manner while in the office, treating all patients equally no matter the patient’s circumstances.

A good acupuncturist will know when they have done enough to make an informed diagnosis. They will have weighed the symptoms against the test results and will be able to come to the best diagnosis they can. Then they will determine the appropriate treatment.

Good acupuncturists will strive to push themselves constantly. For more knowledge, for doing more and even for becoming something more they will push themselves. Such things can be done by getting dual specialties, continuing their education and getting to learn more about issues being faced by their patients.
