Four Generations of Experience

Centuries of Knowledge
Meet the KAMWO FAMILY

DR. CARL S. LEUNG
NCCAOM HERBALIST
FOUNDER OF KAMWO HERBS

The passion for healing runs through the meridians of the Leung family. The art of Traditional Chinese Medicine has been passed down from father to son, with each generation expanding on eastern science. Dr. Shan Leung’s grandfather established a Chinese Medical lineage from the late Qing Dynasty; Huidao Leung, Dr. Leung’s father, continued the tradition, providing tutelage to Dr. Leung as a Chinee Medicine Doctor in Hong Kong.

Dr.Shan Leung established Kamwo Herbs on his arrival in the US. and began to build it into one of the largest, most-respected purveyors of Chinese medicine and herbs.

Dr. Leung has over 50 years of experience practicing Chinese herbs and wrote two books, Guide to Healthy Living for the Chinese in North America and The Potent Man’s Guide to Chinese Herbs, Food, and Drink. Dr. Leung is a highly regarded expert in diseases of the skin. His decades of clinical experience in dermatology have led to the development of effective and coveted skin care products.

He is the chairman of the Association of Chinese Herbalists and a member of the Council Board.

DR. THOMAS N. LEUNG
PHARM BS., DACM, L.AC
CEO OF KAMWO HERBS

Dr. Thomas Leung has taken his father’s dream of making high quality Traditional Chinese Medicine accessible to all one step further. As a trained pharmacist and doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Dr. Leung incorporates western pharmaceutical knowledge with the ancient healing arts and sets a new standard in TCM dispensaries.

He likes to laugh that a shoemaker's son makes shoes, but it is true. Knowing the strength and weaknesses of both forms of medication and treatment allows him to navigate and integrate each treatment system with purpose so that Kamwo clients can shop confidently.

Dr. Leung earned a Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy from the State University of New York at Buffalo and a Doctorate in Traditional Chinese Medicine from Pacific College Health Sciences. He is a fourth-generation TCM practitioner and has been schooled in Chinese Medicine since childhood.
