Duties and Responsibilities: An eastern medicine doctor is someone who specializes in alternative medicine and other practices that can vary from acupuncture to therapeutic massage and even herbalism. They use treatments not typically used by professionals or proven to show results.

Salary: $30,000-$70,000

Education: An eastern medicine doctor must attend college or a university or some accredited school that offers a degree or certificate. There are several certificate programs available in alternate medicine specialties, for examples, massage therapy or herbal medicine.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why or why not? I do not think I would be interested in the eastern medicine field particularly, because, eastern medicine and alternate medicine is not in fact scientifically or medically approved as in they are not accredited or have been scientifically proven.
