Joel de Vera Moncada, DACM, L.Ac, FABORM

Founder and Clinic Director

Specializing in fertility, integrative oncology, functional medicine, and Neuropuncture™ techniques

Dr. Joel is a California Board Licensed acupuncturist, herbalist, certified shiatsu therapist, and yoga trained provider. A combination of over 12 years of public health, health care, and eastern medicine experience, he provides a unique treatment style that focuses on patient-centered care, patient advocacy, and integrative health education and coaching. He believes that every patient has numerous healthcare options and is thrilled when patients seek eastern medicine to complement and/or achieve their health goals.

Joel practiced acupuncture in a diverse range of settings, including inpatient at the California Pacific Medical Center Acute Rehabilitation unit as well as outpatient settings and private clinics. He currently is affiliated with Ole Health, a federally qualified health center, providing acupuncture services to marginalized communities in Napa county. He also spearheaded acupuncture services to those with medi-cal or Partnership Healthplan in Solano county. In addition, he has spent over 6 years as an allied health practitioner, learning alongside the pioneers and nation’s experts on spine surgery and conventional approaches to spine care at the University of California San Francisco Medical Center’s departments of Neurosurgery and Neuroradiology. His experiences has inspired Joel to approach spine care in an integrative way, providing acupuncture and shiatsu/yoga therapy for patients along the continuum: from acute pain, pre-surgical physio/emotional readiness, to post-surgical rehabilitation and chronic pain management.

Joel has also spent over a year training at Dr. Lifang Liang’s Fertility and Women’s Health clinic where he witnessed and learned the modalities to treat infertility and an array of gynecological disorders. He adamantly attends international fertility symposiums around the world and routinely collaborates with reproductive endocrinologists, fertility acupuncturists, naturopaths, and medical doctors to advanced the care for those challenged with infertility. He is Fellow of The Acupuncture and TCM Board of Reproductive Medicine, which designates him as an elite expert within the United States for the integration of Chinese and Western Medicine, the approaches to fertility, and helping to grow your family.

His other clinical areas of focus are integrative oncology care – where he has earned distinction as a Specialist in Oncology Acupuncture – orthopedics, men’s health, mental wellness, sleep, and digestive disorders.

“As a healthcare professional, I hold high standards for clinical practitioners that deliver care to me. Dr. Joel goes above and beyond my expectations. He is a good listener, has great energy and vibes, and he is very compassionate.” – Adonna N.

Acupuncture is an essential part of your longevity and should be woven in to your integrative care model.
