Dr. Kim Drolet
Doctor of Chinese Medicine | Convenient Online Herbal Appointments

 

I'm 56, and I feel healthier now than I ever have. That wasn't always true. I was a mess well into my late 30s, cycling through symptoms and half-answers, until acupuncture gave me a shift that blew my mind and changed the direction of my life. At 40, I went back to school, and six years later I had a Master's and a Doctorate in Traditional Chinese Medicine from Pacific College of Health and Science. Through it all, I've now compiled more than 15 years experience using traditional Chinese Medical theories and tools (acupuncture, herbs, lifestyle) to help change people's health and lives. It's been incredibly humbling and rewarding to be a part of your health journey.

 

A turning point came early, during my studies when I spent time studying in Chengdu, China. I watched herbs used, constantly, confidently, for almost everything. I had started Chinese Medical School knowing nothing about herbs. By the time I left Chengdu, I knew they were my first love. That's stayed true ever since and I have been using herbs with my patients from Day 1.

 

I spent the next 15 years practicing as a Licensed Acupuncturist and Chinese Herbalist, and I also taught as faculty and clinic supervisor at Pacific College, training the next wave of practitioners. But herbs are where I do my best work, so I recently took the chance and give everything to herbal therapy. My practice is now 100% online, herbal medicine based, and open to anyone in the United States. I'm here to help you shift.

 

My Specialties, or "What I'm Good At"

​

Along the way I've noticed something. I became good at some conditions. Hair thinning. Grover's disease. Perioral dermatitis. Physical symptoms caused or made worse by stress and mental health issues. Bloating and all things digestion related. Cyclical colds and flus. Anemia and low energy. These aren't mysteries to me anymore, they're patterns I know well and have had great success with personalized Chinese herbal combinations for these, and many other situations.

 

I'm not interested in handing you a complicated list of rules to follow. I have found that most of my patients are "doing everything/enough right" and still feel bad. This is more common than you think. I've got herbal approaches to shift and help. Chinese theories can help me uncover what the root problem is, and find effective herbal combinations for you personally. Additionally, if you're drowning in supplements and don't know what's worth keeping, that's something I can help sort out too. It's a confusing world out there when it comes to health, and if you need someone to work to help find clarity, I'm here for that too.

 

I want to help you shift your health with a few smart moves instead of a hundred tedious ones, so you can get on with the business of living your life to the fullest.

​

I also welcome complicated situations. I've had my own share of harder chapters, including brain surgeries and walking alongside my son through a condition since birth requiring dozens of surgeries, and then 18 years later the sudden news of a benign but large spinal cord tumor. I don't say that for sympathy. I say it because it's part of why I take complicated, chronic, hard-to-solve cases seriously and personally. I always judge treatment by "If (insert your name) was my son or loved one, would I recommend the same?" Knowing how hard it can be when life piles up, when people tell me they've been dismissed elsewhere, I listen. I honestly give a shit about you, if you'll pardon my french.
