Hi, I’m Drew…

A man with a shaved head and a moustache smiling outdoors during sunset, standing in front of bushes and trees.

…a licensed acupuncturist working in Leyton, East London, dedicated to helping people restore balance and wellbeing through natural, holistic care. My journey into acupuncture began after I personally experienced its powerful benefits in easing chronic back pain. Since then, I’ve been passionate about guiding others towards better health, resilience, and a deeper sense of connection in their daily lives.

I have a special interest in women’s health, fertility, pregnancy, and IVF support, as well as on helping those managing chronic issues such as stress, anxiety, insomnia, digestive concerns, and pain conditions.

I hold a first-class, degree-level licentiate in acupuncture from The City College of Acupuncture, a comprehensive three-year program. I now also work as a clinician in the college’s student clinic, where I help to train and support future acupuncturists. I am a fully insured member of the British Acupuncture Council, the leading professional body for acupuncturists in the UK, and a member of the Acupuncture Fertility Network, following additional specialist training in fertility and IVF support. Alongside this, I am also a certified yoga teacher.

In my practice, I employ a gentle, compassionate and non-judgemental approach, working collaboratively with each person to identify supportive lifestyle adjustments that encourage healing beyond the treatment room. Every session is designed to offer a calm, safe environment where you feel listened to, nurtured and supported on your journey to wellbeing.

  • “I was treated by Drew initially for some injuries as a result of weight training, and over a period of 8 or 9 weeks they really improved – and I got back to weight training! But in particular he supported my resilience during a stressful time as part of a more holistic approach to my wellbeing, which made a huge difference. His calm manner and positivity helped me take a break from the tougher bits of my life, and coming for treatment with Drew felt like a genuine oasis of peace each week.”

  • “I had an excellent course of treatment from Drew, who helped considerably with the osteoarthritis in my hip and my trigger finger. I was impressed with his professional approach, taking care to listen to my specific concerns, explore options for treatment and gather feedback on its effectiveness. His engaging and friendly manner admirably complements his professional approach.”
