Dr. Megan Shen, Acupuncturist in Bellevue
*** Dr. Megan is on emergency family leave. Please schedule with Dr. Xavier. Thank you for your understanding ***
Dr. Miao-Keng Shen is a licensed acupuncturist and practitioner of Eastern medicine based in Seattle, Washington. Born and raised in Taiwan, Dr. Shen was immersed in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) from an early age through his father, a practicing Chinese medicine physician. Fluent in Mandarin, she brings both cultural authenticity and clinical expertise to his holistic healthcare practice.
As a child, Dr. Shen personally experienced the healing power of Chinese medicine when her father used herbal formulas to strengthen his digestion and overall health. Over the years, she witnessed countless patients find relief from complex conditions, including a memorable case of chronic mouth tremors that fully resolved after several weeks of Chinese medicine treatment. These experiences inspired her lifelong commitment to integrative and natural healing.
Dr. Shen earned her Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from Tamkang University before realizing her true calling was in healthcare. She later pursued formal training in Traditional Chinese Medicine in Canada, earning her Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine (DTCM) from Tzu Chi International College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Vancouver in 2021. During her clinical training, she developed a strong focus on acupuncture for pain relief and musculoskeletal conditions, gaining extensive hands-on experience through clinical internships and mentorship at specialized pain management clinics.
Now practicing in Seattle, Dr. Shen is licensed in acupuncture and Eastern medicine and is dedicated to helping patients achieve optimal health through natural, evidence-informed, and holistic care. Her approach blends classical TCM principles with modern clinical insight to treat the root cause of illness—not just symptoms.
Outside of the clinic, Dr. Shen enjoys traveling, camping, and hiking. Connecting with nature helps her recharge and maintain balance, values she encourages in her patients’ healing journeys.
