Russell Vale Family Medical & Acupuncture Practice

Welcome to Russell Vale Family Medical & Acupuncture Practice, located at Bellambi Lane in Bellambi, Australia. Our institution is a trusted and reliable healthcare center, offering a range of medical and acupuncture services to our patients.

One of our key features is the availability of telehealth appointments with Dr. Azam, allowing regular patients to access quality healthcare remotely. Dr. Azam brings over 25 years of experience in acupuncture to our practice, specializing in Traditional Chinese acupuncture with needles, laser acupuncture, and Moxibustion. His expertise in these techniques was honed under the guidance of the late renowned acupuncturist, Sir Anton Jaysuria, and through studying YNSA (Yamamoto New Scalp Acupuncture) in Japan.

Dr. Azam is a fellow of the Australian Medical Acupuncture College (AMAC) and actively contributes to the AMAC NSW Education Committee. He is also an accredited medical acupuncturist by Medicare Australia, ensuring that patients can avail rebates for their treatments.

Acupuncture, a fundamental aspect of our practice, works by stimulating the body's natural healing abilities. By inserting fine needles into specific areas of the body containing nerve endings, we can help retrain the nervous system and restore balance to the body's energies. The response elicited is determined by the type of nerve ending and the method of needling employed.

Our practice offers acupuncture as an effective treatment for various conditions, including stress-related disorders such as anxiety and depression, as well as muscle and tendon injuries, including sports-related injuries.

In addition to his expertise in acupuncture, Dr. Sajid Azam has extensive experience in general practice, spanning over 25 years. He is a panel examiner for doctors seeking entrance into the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners and holds a fellowship in the Australian Medical Acupuncture College. Dr. Azam's special interests lie in Geriatrics and Natural Therapies, further enhancing the comprehensive care provided at our practice.

To ensure the highest standards of healthcare, our services and facilities have been fully accredited by AGPAL since June 2000. We take pride in offering a supportive and professional environment, with Dr. Azam serving as a Senior Clinical Lecturer at the UOW Post Graduate School of Medicine and as a registrar supervisor.

At Russell Vale Family Medical & Acupuncture Practice, we are committed to providing exceptional healthcare services, combining the best of traditional and modern medicine. Book an appointment with us today and experience the benefits of our holistic approach to your well-being.
