  • Laura Wong, L.Ac., MAOM

    L.Ac., MAOM

    Focused, calm and positive are qualities that Laura Wong’s patients use to describe her. As a licensed acupuncturist, she brings this ancient form of healing therapy to seniors as part of their integrated, personal medical care. “My patients regularly tell me that they have less pain,  more functionality and vitality in their lives as they progress through their treatment plan,” Laura says. “I enjoy holding a supportive space for them to choose health and nurture the body’s natural healing potential. JenCare has allowed me to bring acupuncture to seniors who would otherwise not have easy access to this beneficial medicine.” Laura completed undergraduate studies in cultural anthropology at Cornell University College of Arts and Sciences in Ithaca, NY. “After getting my B.A., I began my career in holistic healthcare as a licensed massage therapist and zen shiatsu practitioner,” she says. “Several years later, I pursued my training to become an acupuncturist.” At that time, she moved to Massachusetts to attend the New England School of Acupuncture, where she trained in Chinese and Japanese acupuncture styles, as well as oriental medicine, and earned a master’s degree. Her professional associations include the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. Since October 2013, Laura has provided instruction and complementary healing treatments to JenCare patients, helping them prevent or manage a variety of conditions—from injuries and chronic pain to mood, heart, digestive and numerous other disorders.

  • Amy Ballard, D.O.

    DO

    As a JenCare hospitalist, Dr. Amy Ballard takes charge of numerous details for hospitalized patients to ensure they receive the highest quality care. "I work with all of our patients’ doctors and communicate with them almost daily," she says. "Their doctors trust me to take care of them, coordinate their treatment plans and help them deliver the best outcome possible every time." Being part of the busy medical profession allows Dr. Ballard to combine her passions for science, problem-solving and helping others. That's why JenCare was a natural fit. "I feel I'm a part of something that is changing the standard of care and changing the face of medicine," she adds. "We are the first hospitalist program like this. It shows our seniors just how important they are to us and that we're here for them when they need us most." Dr. Ballard studied biology at Abilene Christian University in Abilene, TX, and earned her medical degree in osteopathic medicine from Des Moines University College of Osteopathic Medicine in Des Moines, IA. She returned to Texas to complete her internal medicine residency at Plaza Medical Center in Fort Worth. She is board certified in internal medicine and is a member of the American College of Osteopathic Internists and the American Osteopathic Association. Along with her dedication to JenCare, Dr. Ballard has dedicated her time and expertise to provide medical care to those who lack access in her local community and in Mexico.
