Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine
Licensed Acupuncturist
Dr. Jill Doan, DACM, L.Ac. is the owner of To The Point Acupuncture. She is a Licensed Acupuncturist by the State of North Carolina’s Acupuncture Licensing Board. She is also Board Certified in Oriental Medicine, Diplomate Status, by the National Certification Commission on Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM).
Dr. Jill is experienced in treating many different conditions such as menstrual irregularities, infertility, musculoskeletal conditions, anxiety/depression, headaches, menopausal symptoms, digestive disorders, as well as many others. During her coursework, she interned in a variety of clinics, hospitals, and rehabilitation facilities. She has continued her education to include additional training for allergies, digestive conditions, musculoskeletal pain elimination, mental/emotional disorders, and fertility.
Jill received her undergraduate degree from Assumption College in Worcester, Massachusetts, where she graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts in Biology. While obtaining her degree at Assumption, Jill worked as a chiropractic assistant. During this time, she met an acupuncturist. Having witnessed the healing effects that acupuncture had to offer for both her family and herself, she knew without a doubt that this was what she wanted to do for the rest of her life.
Jill then continued her educational path towards her career at the The New England School of Acupuncture in Watertown, Massachusetts and graduated with a Master of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (MAOM). The New England School of Acupuncture was the first acupuncture school in the United States and remains one of the most prestigious academic institutions in the f
ield.
In 2006, Jill moved from Massachusetts to North Carolina and opened the doors to To The Point Acupuncture. Initially in Cary, NC Jill has since relocated her office to Raleigh, NC. Though known to be somewhat of a goofball and a free spirit, Jill is quite serious when it comes to treating her patients. She listens to her patients, makes them laugh when they want to cry, and is always researching different ways in which she can best serve her patients using Acupuncture and Chinese medicine.
Having worked in the field for many years, Jill decided to continue on to further her education and completed her Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine at the Pacific College of Health & Science in San Diego, CA.
Being actively involved in the community is important to Jill. She has served on the board and council as both the Membership Officer and Treasurer for the North Carolina Society of Acupuncture and Asian Medicine (NCSAAM).
When not at work, Jill spends her time balancing a very busy and active lifestyle with her husband and two sons. She can always be found laughing, smiling, and simply enjoying life.

When you walk into the office you will see one of these 2 faces smiling back at you.
Lara
Lara is a former New Englander who relocated to North Carolina in 1995. After many years of juggling a family, school, and gainful employment, she completed her Bachelor of Arts through UNCG. She considers herself to be a perpetual student and she is always on the lookout for an opportunity to learn something new.
Although Lara is not licensed to practice acupuncture at TTPA, she does enjoy needling others with her sharp sense of humor. She provides comprehensive treatment to both friends and family members, as well as two feline companions that suffer from delusions of grandeur.
When she is not at the office, she is probably lost in the pages of a good book or dabbling in digital photography.
