Dear Patient, My coworkers and I have a running joke. Whenever we welcome a new acupuncturist to our practice, or when someone returns after a vacation, we’ll say “Don’t forget…the pointy end goes in the patient.” Dumb as this joke may be, I laugh at it every time, as it reveals a deep truth about how it’s easy to forget the fundamentals when we’re feeling unsure of ourselves.
