Guest guest Posted March 5, 2002 Report Share Posted March 5, 2002 - AV ACUPUNCTURE tom pollock Tuesday, March 05, 2002 5:52 AM Fw: VERY IMPORTANT !!! - AV ACUPUNCTURE Monday, March 04, 2002 8:32 PM VERY IMPORTANT !!! EVERYONE PLEASE READ THIS: I am writing you about the bill 1943 to increase our scope of practice and make us doctors! The people who are against it are the people who will not make as much money if it passes!!! The NCAAOM wants to sacrifice our profession because they want to make more money on their EXAM ! Also if Ca raises the bar they wont get the monopoly on the exam they are so badly seeking! PLEASE DON'T BE FOOLED BY THEM ! ALSO the schools with campuses in other states have a lot to lose financially- they make their programs so people in other states can sit for the CA exam and they get more students (MONEY) because of this. I hope P.C.O.M. takes the high road as I AM AN ALUMNI grad. 1997. WE AS ACUPUNCTURISTS HAVE EVEYTHING TO GAIN ! STUDENTS HAVE EVERYTHING TO GAIN! Everyone will become a D.O.M. DOCTOR! with the passage of this bill. The bill will simply increase our scope of practice to include chinese herbal medicine and oriental medicine instead of just sticking needles into people. Also more importantly it will make us DOCTORS. If we dont pass this bill it is possible we could even lose our primary physician status in the future. Please look at the intentions of the people opposed to this bill ! The NCAAOM ! Please ! What the heck are they in our buisness anyway! This is a make or break year for the acupuncture profession. PLEASE READ THE BILL YOURSELF. The bill is the best thing that has ever happened to our profession! PS We need to write to the author of the bill, CA acupuncture board and the legislators in your district now if you like this bill. The NCAAOM And other selfish people are opposing this bill with all kinds of LIES ! If we don't support this bill we will probably never be DOCTORS! Remember this is not an academic doctorate PhD, this is being a real DOCTOR! P.C.O.M. Will have more to gain by having an academic doctorate. As would other schools with campuses in other states. Who cares about an academic doctorate when you are not even a real doctor? PLEASE read the bill yourself and look at the intentions of the people opposed to this bill.

I guess, I should write them to find out *S*>>>Talk to AAOM they have been dealing with this dumbdown from NCCAOM of many years AlonChinese Herbal Medicine, a voluntary organization of licensed healthcare practitioners, matriculated students and postgraduate academics specializing in Chinese Herbal Medicine, provides a variety of professional services, including board approved online continuing education.
