In response to overwhelming requests from patients and physicians, the CHLA-YSU Pediatric Acupuncture Program collaboration has increased its acupuncture services from one half day clinic (4 hours) to two half day clinics twice a week.
Beginning January 2010, one year from its inception, faculty and student interns from YSU have been providing traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) consultations and acupuncture treatments to patients at Childrens Hospital Los Angeles on Wednesdays and Fridays.
There are also ongoing discussions about opening up a third day/clinic in Fall 2010 if the demand for TCM/acupuncture continues to increase. In addition to clinical services, Program Director Dr. Jeffrey Gold and YSU clinical faculty Dr. Brandon Horn have been invited to present pediatric grand rounds at LA County-USC Medical Center in October 2010.
Yo San University would like to thank all donors and well-wishes for their support for the CHLA-YSU Pediatric Acupuncture Program.
