Excepts from a personal chat with
Dr. Ling...
Dr. Andrew Ling's personal Australian
Medical Outreach was founded in
January 2011 as a means of bringing
together a series of outreach medical
work that he was directly responsible for,
and also a platform for his future dreams
and goals.
Dr. Ling wished to add to this work the
ethos that drives it, in short that genuine
caring for those in need is an important
foundation of the health care industry. He
feels that it is through the giving of care
to others we open ourselves to be cared
for.
"It is in giving that we receive" is his daily
motto and driving force behind his
dedication to his patients. Dr. Lings
approach is largely about the whole
person and this includes looking at
spiritual aspects of the person requiring
care. Every person requires caring and
love, though it is not something that can
be scientifically quantified.
Yet research can show the value of such
love and care and its healing power.
Likewise the lack of positive emotion in
one's life can be proven to have negative
aspects on a person's health.
We can look at Dr. Ling's life to see his
involvement in organisations such as
Rotary and Interplast to get an idea of
just how dedicated this man is in
contributing to creating a better society. It
is his desire to help each individual
person as each individual needs to be
helped. He sees that no two people are
the same and therefore each and every
patient deserves to be treated uniquely
and as a whole person. Emotionally,
physically mentally and spiritually.
Alcare is Dr. Ling's vision of a holistic
approach. "A persons health should not
become political, ever".The overall
genuine ethos of Alcare is to help others.
This is the core focus and school of
thought that has brought the Alcare team
together in its ambition to care and love
all people in need. Alcare's simple
summary is: It's a genuine holistic
approach where people come first.

Dr. Ling says that in writing
'Acupuncture Demystified' he wanted to
write a book that would stand on its own
two feet. It had to be an evidence based
book. "Im putting in western medicine
evidence of how acupuncture works,
and it is my hope that this might
lead to further scientific research".
Dr. Ling is rewarded in life by the
knowledge that he has helped people.
"Its only if its going to help people that I
am prepared to step out of my comfort
zone and step into the limelight".
This is very true of Dr. Ling who is a
gentle man, quick with a smile , and very
much at home talking with his patients
on a one-to-one basis. Dr. Ling believes
in the ideals of Alcare. He feels that time
is his main limitation as a doctor and
says that if there we only more than 24
hrs in a day he could be helping more
and more people. He has a positive
outlook on life and doesn't let little things
worry him. He also tries to steer clear of
politics, as he says: "politics in the
medical profession gets you moving in
only one direction and having to choose
only one side is distracting."
Research has show the value of love
and care and its healing power.
Likewise the lack of positive emotion in
one's life can be proven to have
negative aspects on a person's health.

There also is a responsibility on the
patients behalf in that they need to take
health issues seriously and do their part.
He says: "They can't just run around and
run amok and then depend on people to
stitch them up. People need to heed the
advice from doctors and learn to act
responsibly".
