Herb Dispensary

The School of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine at New York Chiropractic College features its own full-service herb dispensary that fills orders for the various AOM clinical sites, including the Seneca Falls Health Center, the NYCC Campus Health Center, and Lifetime Care in Rochester, NY. We are the largest herb dispensary in Upstate New York. The dispensary carries over 300 high quality raw herbs from China, over 300 granulated formulas and single herbs, and a large selection of prepared medicines. The dispensary also serves as a clinical & didactic training facility for the School of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine’s MSAOM student interns.

We dispense herbs by prescription only. Practitioners can place orders in person at our Seneca Falls Health Center clinic location, or by phone and fax. Our raw herbs have been processed by cleaning, soaking, slicing, and drying. Our suppliers are selected for their attention to product quality and correct species identification. Our raw herbs are the finest pharmaceutical grade, being harvested and processed with the highest standards possible. Most have been tested for pesticide residues, bacterial content and heavy metals. No endangered species of any kind (plant or animal) are used. The School of AOM at NYCC is working on a national level to implement and exemplify dispensary standards that comply with all federal guidelines for quality assurance, product tracking, and patient safety.
