Hello! I'm Dr. Deidre Smith, and my mission is to empower my patients with a deep understanding of their bodies and health. By providing knowledge and insight, I ensure you have the power to select treatments and products that align perfectly with your lifestyle and unique needs.
As a working woman myself, I understand the vital role of maintaining peak health to thrive both personally and professionally. My goal is to enhance your overall health, helping you maximize vitality and energy at every stage of life.
Personalized Care and Comprehensive Solutions
In my practice, you'll experience comprehensive care that integrates the ancient wisdom of acupuncture, Chinese medicine, and herbal remedies with modern nutritional insights. I offer nutritional reviews and recommendations based on the latest research and medical standards, all within a relaxed, homely setting. My approach respects the traditions of Chinese Medicine while addressing the needs of today’s patients, blending Eastern and Western medical philosophies for holistic, effective solutions.
I believe in transparency and honesty, tailoring each treatment or program to match your specific needs and budget. Education is at the forefront of my practice, ensuring you have the essential knowledge to make informed health decisions.
Extensive Education and Specialization
I am a proud graduate of the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine, recognized among the top four Oriental Medical Masters and Doctoral programs in America. I enriched my training with internships at three hospitals in Nanjing, China, focusing on Women’s Health and Fertility, Cardiology, and Oncology. My passion for specialization led me to earn a Doctorate in Traditional Chinese Medicine from Yo San University, focusing on Women’s Health and Fertility.
With years of experience in treating fertility issues, I became an American Board of Oriental Reproductive Medicine (ABORM) Fellow. As an ABORM Fellow and Doctor specializing in Infertility and Women’s Health within Traditional Chinese Medicine, I collaborate with gynecologists and reproductive endocrinologists to complement and enhance Western reproductive care approaches.
Since 2004, I have been board certified by the National Commission for the Certification of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, consistently demonstrating my commitment to professional development through a minimum of 20 hours of continuing education each year.
Continual Growth and Sharing of Knowledge
Since opening my private practice in 2004, I have continuously sought knowledge from leaders in Fertility, Women’s Health, Dermatology, and Pain Management. My aim is to share this education with my patients, empowering you to make informed healthcare decisions and take control of your well-being.
