Lisa Pugliese, R.N., L.Ac.

Lisa Pugliese has been working in Health Care for nearly 20 years. Before becoming an Acupuncturist in 2001, Lisa worked as a Registered Nurse. Studying Chinese Medicine and Nutritional Medicine seemed like a natural transition for Lisa as she sought to help people who often fell through the cracks of the traditional medical model. She completed her degree in Traditional Oriental Medicine in San Diego and became the apprentice of Dr. Loisanne Keller, a pioneer of Chinese Medicine in California and respected Naturopath. Inspired by the work of Dr. Keller, Lisa’s practice draws from a diverse and extensive study of medicine and nutrition. Lisa took over the Keller Clinic when Dr. Keller retired. In the years since her graduation, Lisa has furthered her studies of both Chinese and Functional/Nutritional Medicine.

Education:

Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Summa Cum Laude.
University of Massachusetts, 1992.
Master of Science in Traditional Oriental Medicine. Summa Cum Laude.
Pacific College of Oriental Medicine, 2000.
