Caitlin Morse | Licensed Acupuncturist

Caitlin was first introduced to Eastern medicine at age fourteen, when she experienced acupuncture at the AC Clinic as part of her recovery from multiple injuries sustained as a cheerleader and gymnast. That early experience sparked a lasting interest in medicine and ultimately shaped the direction of her career.

Caitlin went on to earn her Bachelor's degree in Health Science from Springfield College before completing her Master's degree in Acupuncture at the New England School of Acupuncture, where she graduated Magna Cum Laude.

Today, Caitlin has come full circle as an acupuncture associate in Dr. Guo's practice. Her approach is rooted in the belief that effective care begins with a strong patient-provider relationship and that every patient deserves to feel comfortable, informed, and valued throughout their treatment.

For Caitlin, practicing acupuncture is more than just a career; it is a meaningful continuation of the experience that first inspired her to pursue medicine.
