About Dr. Jinjun Guo

Licensed Acupuncturist

Dr. Jin Jun Guo earned his medical degree from Hubei University of Chinese Medicine and practiced as a physician and acupuncture specialist at Wuhan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine before coming to New York, where he has been a licensed acupuncturist since 2003.

With more than 30 years in practice, he treats pain in the neck, shoulder, back, waist and knee, and applies Chinese medicine to respiratory issues, skin conditions, and chronic disease — particularly diabetes, endocrine disorders, and digestive disorders.
