Jack Handlin L.Ac, DAOM, FABORM

Doctor of Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine

Dr. Handlin specializes in both female and male infertility, gynecology and women's health. He is an experienced acupuncturist, Chinese herbalist and oriental reproductive medicine specialist certified as a fellow of ABORM (American Board of Oriental Reproductive Medicine).  This board certification shows continued dedication and experience in the field of oriental reproductive medicine and the collaboration between Eastern & Western medicine.

Jack graduated from Bastyr University with a masters of science in acupuncture and oriental medicine (MSAOM) where he studied from renowned Chinese medicine practitioners and women's health & fertility specialists. He is completed his doctoral degree at Oregon College of Oriental Medicine (OCOM). His capstone research paper focuses on ovarian reserve, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), and folliculogenesis in the treatment of infertility and assisted reproductive technology (ART) therapies.

He has continued his studies with other top fertility practitioners such as Jane Lyttleton, L.Ac., author of Treatment of Infertility with Chinese Medicine and Randine Lewis, L.Ac., author of Infertility Cure, Yaron Seidman the author of Curing Infertility, and acupuncture obstetrics specialist Debra Betts.

To further enhance his understanding of the Western medical view of reproductive disorders and assisted reproductive therapy (ART) treatments he also studied from board certified reproductive endocrinologist and OB/GYN doctors Ashim Kumar M.D., and Richard Buyalos M.D.

Jack is currently a member of the American Society of Reproductive Medicine (ASRM), the American Fertility Association (AFA),  RESOLVE, a national resource for those overcoming infertility, the American Pregnancy Association (APA), an association promoting pregnancy and wellness, and the Pacific Coast Reproductive Society (PCRS).

Jack's focus is on treating the whole person, not just the presence of infertility or gynecological imbalances. He treats the underlying constitution with gentle, personalized treatments to balance the body and restore optimal health. He is committed to continuing education and research to stay current in the areas of reproductive medicine, gynecology and women's health

He and his staff believe that offering patients the highest level of care is important due to the emotional stress, time frame, and often high cost of other treatments.
