Sze K. Chan, MSTCM, L. Ac., Dipl. O.M. graduated from Columbia University and worked for a decade in various fields  before she combined her love for Chinese culture and her early foray into medical research and dedicated herself to helping people through Chinese Medicine.

She received her Masters of Traditional Chinese Medicine from the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. She believes strongly in holistic healing and the idea of prevention from the Huang Di Nei Jing and aims to help patients become managers of their own well-being.

Her style of acupuncture is a unique mix of traditional TCM styles and the techniques of her mentor, Dr. Kezhen Zhang. She also apprenticed extensively with renowned acupuncturists in the US and China to refine her technique and diagnostic skills. 

Sze currently supervises students at the Pacific College of Health and Science clinic. She hopes to cultivate the next generation of practitioners and give back to the community. Sze is also an accomplished linguist with over 25 years of experience and a DNC T3 certified grassroots organizer.
