What Makes Us Unique?
Dragon Rises College of Oriental Medicine (DRCOM) is setting the standards of East Asian medicine through educating and inspiring the next generation of practitioners and leaders in their field, while creating pathways for integration into Western medicine to transform modern healthcare. Originally established in 2001 in Gainesville, FL, and co-founded by Dr. Leon Hammer, DRCOM provides a fully accredited joint Bachelor’s and Master’s degree program in Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine. In 2022 we opened our expanded Bradenton, FL campus and Student Clinic and began our Distance Education program combining synchronous on-line education with clinical hands-on experience to provide student’s additional program options.
