Matt Dorsey has spent the last twelve years studying and practicing Eastern Medicine, clinical nutrition, acupuncture, herbology, pharmacology, Qi Gong, psychology, and anything else that falls under the umbrella of 'Integrative Medicine'. He can approach any health condition using a variety of different lenses, although he draws most heavily on his training in western clinical nutrition, herbology, lifestyle medicine, acupuncture, and biochemistry. Dr. Dorsey works as the Chief Scientific Officer & Formulator for CHOQ and runs his own practice working one-on-one with clients through The East-West Alchemist.
