Debbie Hutchison, L.Ac., RN, MS
A nursing background. A whole-person approach.
Debbie Hutchison is a Missouri licensed acupuncturist at Wellness Concepts Clinic in Springfield. With 30 years of experience as a critical care nurse at Mercy Hospital and a background in cellular biology and psychology, she brings a broad healthcare perspective to acupuncture care focused on pain, mobility, and everyday well-being.
From Critical Care Nursing to Acupuncture
Debbie's healthcare career includes three decades as a critical care registered nurse at Mercy Hospital, with experience in cardiovascular intensive care. That background gives her a deep appreciation for the challenges people face when their health affects daily life.
