Mission Statement
The purpose of the New York College of Traditional Chinese Medicine is to prepare its graduates for licensure and competent professional practice of Chinese acupuncture and herbology. This preparation will emphasize traditional Chinese principles of treatment, including their cultural and philosophical context, and will also provide a fundamental understanding of the Western medical approach.
History
The New York College of Traditional Chinese Medicine was founded in 1996. Its acupuncture and Oriental medicine program received candidate status from the Accreditation Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in 1999, and became accredited in 2002.

The end of cancer treatment does not necessarily signal a return to good health. Cancer survivors report poorer health and well-being than people who have not had cancer; many suffer chronic consequences of cancer and its treatments. Some may also develop new symptoms many years after treatment has ended.
