“Dear Colleagues, I want this letter to exemplify my aspirant of being elected to the 
Florida State Oriental Medicine Association (FSOMA). The integrity of our 
profession as acupuncture physicians and DOCTORS holds distinctiveness in 
our society.  We have spent enduring and long hours of education to have the 
knowledge to serve the public in their health and wellness paths.  We are a very 
persistent group of individuals.  We persevere and advance our knowledge through 
research and continuing education to reach a competency and proficiency in areas 
of natural medicine and western medicine. Our profession as acupuncture 
physician and DOCTORS is significant to the wellbeing of the public.  Our 
practice act should convey all of this.   We should broaden our scope of 
practice and amplify it.  It is my aspiration to expand membership of our state 
association and to involve all members in the growth of our profession. It is my 
desire to make FSOMA an association that all Florida Acupuncture Physicians are 
proud, appreciative and honored to be members.  It is with great hopefulness 
that my colleagues feel the sense of dignity, grandeur and honor in regards to 
their profession.
