Prajna Paramita Choudhury, L.Ac., Dipl.O.M.

Prajna earned her Masters Degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine from the nationally acclaimed Yo San University in Los Angeles, California, where she graduated at the top of her class after four years of rigorous study. Prior to studying Chinese Medicine, she received her bachelor's degree in psychology from Johns Hopkins University and master's degree in social psychology from Stanford University.

Based upon her clinical performance, Ms. Choudhury was selected to study with the premiere fertility specialists in the country at the Tao of Wellness clinic in Santa Monica. Her clinical experience also encompasses working with immune-compromised patients at Being Alive Clinic in West Hollywood, and with at-risk populations at Venice Family Clinic, the largest free clinic in the country.

Upon graduation, Prajna completed a post-graduate residency at the Sichuan Hospital for the Integration of Chinese and Western Medicine in China, with an emphasis in herbal medicine. This study included rotations in oncology, internal medicine, dermatology, and gynecology.

Prajna has treated hundreds of patients as the on-board acupuncturist on Holland American cruise-line, and has lectured widely about Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine. In the Bay Area, she has worked with a wide variety of patients at Quan Yin Healing Arts Center in San Francisco, and currently volunteers at Charlotte Maxwell Complementary Clinic, a complementary clinic for low-income women with cancer in Oakland.

Prajna specializes in gentle techniques and is skilled at treating a wide range of ailments. She has worked extensively with survivors of trauma and abuse, and a quest for modes of deeper healing eventually led Prajna into the study of Traditional Chinese Medicine. She strives to be a non-judgmental partner in each patient's personal path of healing and wellness.
