“The high quality expert coaching I’ve received on the ASBM (‘Clinical rounds: Shadowing with Masters’), has been worth every penny of the membership fee. It’s given valuable insights into complex clinical cases, allowing me to improve diagnosis, herbal prescription, point selection and technique. The discussion and advice offered on my private cases has also offered new perspectives allowing positive changes to my treatment strategies and results. Best of all, you can access the videos and ask questions in your time frame, at your own pace. ”
