Quotes from past attendee Dr. Michael Tierra, L.Ac.: “TCMzone provided a wonderful experience for my wife, Lesley, myself and approximately 24 of our students to tour and study Chinese medicine in China. We had
fine accommodations and experienced the remarkable integration of TCM in one of the leading hospitals in Shanghai where our mornings consisted of in patient and out patient hospital rounds with expert TCM doctors and wonderful classes in the afternoon. TCMzone assisted us in planning the perfect program of topics, provided wonderful interpreters. I highly recommend them as the source for such study tours. Everyone had a great and deeply enriching experience.” - Michael Tierra, L.Ac., O.M.D., Founder and Director of the East West Course of Planetary Herbology
