He specializes in Oriental Internal Medicine, Acupuncture; acute & chronic pain management, stress disorders and Naturopathic Internal Medicine.

Dr. McDonald’s combined education in Oriental and Naturopathic medicine total over 11 years. His Oriental medical education consisted of a four-year Masters degree from East West College of Natural Medicine and a one-year postgraduate internship with Dr. David Cohen, DO, FABMA (Fellow of the American Board of Medical Acupuncture). His postgraduate specialty with Dr. Cohen was done in French Energetic & Electro-Acupuncture, which is unparalleled for acute and chronic pain syndromes. Prior to his Oriental medical education, Mel spent six years earning two doctoral degrees (Doctor of Naturopathy-distance learning and Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine-residential).
