Dr. Lu brings a rare combination of Eastern and Western medical training to her practice. She earned her Medical Degree from Harbin Medical University in China, where she trained and worked as a physician across multiple hospital settings before pursuing her Master of Science in Acupuncture at Bastyr University in the Pacific Northwest.
Since 1997, she has dedicated her career to integrative patient care — treating the whole person, not just the symptom. Her dual credentials as both a Western-trained physician and a licensed acupuncturist give her an unusually deep diagnostic perspective that patients consistently describe as transformative.
Dr. Lu currently serves as a Clinical Supervisor at Bastyr Center for Natural Health and holds membership with the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM).
I have suffered from migraines for a few years. Within 1 month, after a few treatments, I was migraine free for 6 months! I used to get them weekly. I know from experience that she knows what she is doing.Mark P. Seattle, WA · Yelp
Dr. Lu has gotten me out of pain and taken care of other life symptoms — menopause, insomnia, stress reduction, sciatica, back spasms. My reduced stress and improved sleep has helped me lose 20 lbs, and without medications.Shannon S. Edmonds, WA · Yelp
I have chronic back pain and I have been seeing Dr. Lu for the last 2 years. I find her treatment immensely helpful — to an extent that I attribute part of my professional success to her treatment.Shiv K. Local Guide · Google
