Dr. Ming Dooley

Dr. Ming graduated from Pacific College of Health and Science in 1992 and have been licensed as an acupuncturist in California since 1993. She spent the next 20 years as a professional mother, homeschooling her 4 children, while at the same time assisting her husband, a medical doctor, in his Integrative Medicine practice. 

In 2015, as part of her plans for returning to the work force, she completed the Institute of Classical Five Element Acupuncture’s post-graduate program and started a part-time practice with her husband’s patients who suffered from fatigue, fibromyalgia, stress and other medically unexplained symptoms. Her results mirrored his; treatments provided temporary relief, but symptoms persisted. One of her patients was involved in a mold lawsuit. She had heard of the Shoemaker Protocol as the treatment of choice, so she began her study. 

In 2017, she certified in the Shoemaker Protocol. Following her certification, she co-authored three peer-review published papers including A Review of Mold Literature from 2011-2018, and Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome – A Review of the Evidence of Clinical Efficacy of Treatment and is working on a fourth. In 2020 she completed her Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine at Pacific College of Health and Science. Dr. Ming is a regular speaker at the annual CIRSx conference.

Dr. Ming alternates spending time at her office in San Diego and in her off-the-grid home in the high desert in Winslow, Arizona where she is working on finishing a prototype SIREWALL tiny home. She plans to build a tiny house SIREWALL community to provide a place for individuals with CIRS to escape from their moldy homes and get well.
