I actually have homework but you did say, "I've never had a doctor touch any part of my body without gloves." which not the same thing as,"...any time a doctor put anything in my body."

I actually am a big proponent of the 'placebo effect' and I believe our bodies have great recuperative powers. I have no immediate plans for incorporating any therapies outside of my current medical curriculum, and I have a residency once school is finished in a yet undetermined specialty, so you getting all cranky about acupuncture is all for naught. The DoD is doing it and you don't have to so give it a rest.
