Practitioners

Dr. Andy Russell, DAHM, EAMP

I am a Doctor of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine (DAHM), and a Washington state-licensed East Asian Medical Practitioner. I received my Master's degree in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine from the Seattle Institute of East Asian Medicine (SIEAM) in August 2006, and then returned to pursue a doctoral degree, which was awarded in August 2019. I am Board Certified as a Diplomate in Oriental Medicine through the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, and serve as adjunct faculty at SIEAM and the New England School of Acupuncture. I am also a research acupuncturist at the Fred Hutch Cancer Research Center, working on studies in integrative oncology.  Prior to becoming an acupuncturist, I received a Bachelor's degree from Haverford College in Pennsylvania and practiced Western medicine as an Emergency Medical Technician.

I strive to provide compassionate, inclusive, judgement-free care to all my patients. I enjoy working with other practitioners to approach health and wellness from an integrative perspective. When not practicing medicine I enjoy time with my family, gardening, cooking, and backpacking.
