Our Story

We are San Diego's oldest and largest Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine clinic

Pacific Center of Health, The Healing Point was established in 1986. Rick Gold (still practicing at the clinic today), Alex Tiberi, and Joe Lizarro founded Pacific College of Health and Science (formerly Pacific College of Oriental Medicine) to provide Oriental medical and Asian bodywork therapy education to students from around the world. At the same time, they realized they needed a clinic site off-campus – and Pacific Center of Health was born.

 

The clinic has had a few homes over the years, but we are currently located in the Kearny Mesa area. In 2011, we happily welcomed Adrian Bean from The Healing Point as we joined forces.

 

Our clinic is a leader in the Chinese Medicine field. We see a variety of patients and work with a large number of insurance providers. We treat patients with a wide range of concerns, such as those seeking relief from chronic pain and workers' comp injuries, to cancer patients and those with overall wellness concerns. 

 

We strive to provide a great experience for patients from the time they schedule with our front desk staff to the time they come in for their treatments. We have a warm, welcoming environment and genuinely care about the health and well-being of our patients. It is our goal to provide the best holistic care possible. We look forward to supporting you in your holistic health journey!
