Introducing Dr. Yu Kang

Dr. Yu Kang, known to most as "Dr. Yu”, first began healing studies with her parents, who are well-known doctors of Oriental Medicine in her hometown Zibo -a mid-sized city in northern China. At the age of 15, she was accepted by Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine as one of the youngest students in school history. After eight-year training in Western and Oriental Medicine, Dr. Yu went to China Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine to be further trained in acupuncture and herbal medicine under the most influential doctors of Oriental Medicine in China. Prior to her arrival in the United States, Dr. Yu was an internist in Xiyuan Hospital, Beijing. Dr. Yu’s extensive training also includes a master’s degree in Nutrition from the Pennsylvania State University, and a one-year dietetic internship at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center-a teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School. Dr. Yu is a licensed acupuncturist, a registered dietitian, and a certified herbalist from the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM).

For the past 10 years, Dr. Yu has been offering nutritional consultation, individualized herbal prescription, functional exercise and acupuncture for patients across the generations - from children to elders. She is specialized in women’s health, i.e., fibroid, excessive vaginal discharge, menstrual irregularities, incontinence, endometriosis and menopause; in pain management, i.e., fibromyalgia, migraine, osteoarthritis, and sciatica; in chronic disease management, i.e., obesity, hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, gastritis, bed-wetting, anxiety and adult attention deficit (ADD).
