About Jingfang Teaching Clinics

An essential part of studying Classical Chinese Medicine is spending time with your teacher in the clinic, watching them do patient consultations and write herbal prescriptions. The goal of these jingfang teaching clinics is to provide this opportunity for Dr. Even's students, and to bring all of the information from his courses to life within a clinical context. These clinics allow the students to observe the consultation process, to calibrate their pulse taking skills with Dr. Even's, and to discuss the herbal formulas prescribed to each patient. These clinics take the students beyond textbook knowledge and deepens their understanding of formula presentations, patient constitutions, physiological mechanisms, and the application of Chinese herbal formulas in clinical situations. This opportunity is open to students who have completed the entire Formula Family series of courses.

Jingfang Clinic Testimonials

“These clinics are an essential part of my growth as a practitioner. It has been so beneficial watching the questions that Dr. Even asks each patient, seeing how he arrives at the formula prescription, and discussing the physiological mechanisms at play. There are endless treasures and "aha!" moments within each clinic. One of the biggest treasures has been taking pulses together in clinic - I don't know how I would learn this without Dr. Even's clear and patient guidance. Ontop of all this, the clinics are filled with joy and laughter, and I leave with a heart full of gratitude excitement for this beautiful medicine!”

Kylie Rodger, R.TCM.P.

“Attending these clinic workshops with Dr. Even have been paramount to my learning and growth as a practitioner. Seeing the integration of the Formula Family classes, and the Lóngshā Xuépài lineage as a whole is incredibly useful. The Formula Family classes on their own are fantastic and overflowing with useful information, but to see it synthesized and applied to real life situations is where the magic happens! The hands on pulse guidance has been another part of the clinics that are priceless. We cannot learn pulse diagnosis on our own, no amount of studying will compare to hands-on guidance in real time. These clinic weekends have been the most useful hours I have ever spent learning about the pulse, and Chinese medicine altogether.”

Dr. Bob Malecki, Dr. TCM
