At Gateway we value the input of conventional medical doctors. Liaising with conventional medical doctors allows us to better understand specific illnesses and their treatment - and how acupuncture might fit in with this to help our patients. This is why we request that patients inform their GP where appropriate.
We are also supported by Dr Andrew Field, with whom we can discuss cases, although we will never use your name in any discussions.

“I am very happy to support Gateway to Acupuncture and am encouraged to see Acupuncture treatments gaining increased recognition through research efforts and inclusion in NICE guidelines in certain areas. I am fully behind use of this fundamentally non-harming beneficial technique administered by skilled and caring professionals".
