Through visiting patients who suffered from failed conventional treatments, medication addiction, drug side effects and also surgical complications, Mehrdad was motivated to seek for a less invasive, more effective and safer option to help them, which he discovered while being a volunteer in an Acupuncture clinic in Glendale, California.
He found the ability of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine to help patients deal with their health issues. He realized in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine), by applying basic medical history, physical exams, checking tongue and pulse and also interestingly without ordering costly diagnostic tests, the right diagnosis and optimal treatment can be achieved.
After earning his Medical Doctorate (M.D.) degree, he practiced Medicine in Iran for 6 years. In US, by passing all Steps of USMLE (United States Medical Licensing Examination) and receiving ECFMG (Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates) Certification and furthermore by spending 2 years of Clinical Research in USC (University of Southern California), Mehrdad updated his knowledge in Basic and Clinical Sciences.
By spending years of study at SBU (South Baylo University), one of top school of TCM in US, Mehrdad graduated with Master of Science in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (MSAOM) degree in 2013 and Doctor of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (DAOM) in 2016 to follow his passion in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.
All these achievements have given him the confidence to combine Western Medicine with Oriental Medicine in order to reach the best possible result for his patients.
He is now ready to help patients by incorporating years of the highest levels of education and extensive clinical experiences in Allopathic medicine and also in Alternative and Complementary Medicine.
Mehrdad believes in balancing energy in the body and addressing the whole person as body, mind and spirit.

Holistic Medicine is to locate the root of your health issues and reverse them naturally. Homeopathy can treat many chronic and acute diseases, rather than managing or suppressing them. Our Acupuncturist is able to provide a deeper healing of mental, emotional, and physical complaints.
We specialize in non-narcotic practices in healing pain such as headaches, chronic pain, joint pain, and back pain. We use an array of proven methods such as trigger point injections, chiropractic care, and rehabilitation. Our goal is to treat and relieve your pain permanently instead of using pharmaceuticals for temporary relief.
Herbs were commonly used before western pharmaceuticals were introduced. Treating and preventing medical conditions with herbs is naturally safe.
