August has finally arrived, though here in Syracuse it has felt like August for the past few months. For most August means the end of the carefree days of summer. For me it means the end of carefree days in general. I made an announcement in an earlier newsletter, but for those who missed it I will be welcoming a daughter, Eliana, into the world in about 2 weeks. I will be out of the office from August 13 -26 and back on the 27th.
Since continuing care is an important part of successful acupuncture I will have someone covering for me during those two weeks. Her name is Kere Paz and like me, is a graduate of the Finger Lakes School of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. In September, Kere will become a permanent member of the East Side Acupuncture team.

So I’m gaining a new member of my nuclear family, and a new member of my work family. This is really exciting for me in many ways. As a dad I will get to have whole new experiences. I know they won’t all be pleasant, per se, but will all be learning experiences. I will also be taking every opportunity to learn about pediatric acupuncture (don’t worry it’s actually aneedle-less technique), so if you know any young ones struggling with anything from ear infections and colic, to sleep problems or chronic illness give me a call.
Having another acupuncturist in the practice will also be a great benefit to not only me, but to you, our patients. We will be able to expand hours (evenings and possibly a weekend day). And as the saying goes “two heads are better than one” which means that we can offer even better quality care to you and your loved ones.
