San Francisco Medical Clinic
Description
Dr. Lee is an established expert in both modern “Western” medicine and Oriental Medicine. He is a graduate of Columbia College and received his M.D. degree from the New York University School of Medicine, and has been a licensed physician in California since 1971. However, he has also received extensive acupuncture training in Asia in the 1970s. Dr. Lee discovered that combining the best approaches of Eastern and Western medicine was most effective in treating his patients with medical conditions resistant to conventional therapies.
In addition to being an experienced clinician, Dr. Lee is also a well-known researcher and lecturer involved in training numerous physicians nationwide in acupuncture. He is also the author of many medical journal articles. As the proponent of the landmark Thalamic Neuron Theory, which incorporates knowledge of modern and oriental medicine to explain the role played by the central nervous system – the brain and the spinal cord, in the causes and cures of various diseases. As a teacher, he has trained many medical doctors all over the country to perform acupuncture. You can learn more about the Thalamic Neuron Theory and Dr. Lee’s background on this website.
The distinction between modern western medicine and alternative (also known as complementary or integrative medicine) is artificial. Our clinic does not employ alternative method or modern medical therapies to the exclusion of the other, but to combine them appropriately to promote effective healing. For instance, physical therapy (a western modality) and acupuncture (an oriental healing method) can be employed simultaneously to maximally relieve pain and accelerate rehabilitation. Likewise, trigger point injections (a modern technique) may be complemented by herbal therapy to improve therapeutic outcome.
