概要
Success in acupuncture practice requires more than just clinical skill; it demands honesty, business savvy, and self-preservation. Author Dr. Ann Kirby reflects on a decade of experience, offering vital lessons for new practitioners. First, she emphasizes the power of saying "I don't know" to patients while still trusting one's foundational TCM knowledge; patients value transparency and due diligence over feigned expertise.
Second, the article encourages practitioners to start small. While a dream office is a worthy goal, the practitioner is the practice, and "perfect ambiance" should not come at the cost of financial survival. Investing in non-negotiables like hydraulic tables and inclusive EHR systems can improve ergonomics and efficiency. Third, Kirby highlights that it is okay to ask for help, whether from former teachers, classmates, or professional organizations. Finally, she serves as a "cheerleader," reminding practitioners that they are medical professionals providing essential healing. Her personal journey as a caregiver for her mother further illustrates how life’s challenges can shift career trajectories, ultimately leading to a more resilient and seasoned practice.
