[前言]新医针挑科是一个以一流的专业技术诊治男女不育不孕症、颈肩腰腿痛并取得显著疗效和患者高满意度的科室。
暨南大学附属第一医院新医针挑科是以传统医学的继承与创新为特色，以突出男科病、脊柱神经疾病和不育不孕症为临床诊疗研究重点的学科。1981年建科，时任科主任王义智教授为本学科的开拓者。是闻名于全国乃至东南亚地区的一流科室。尤其是近20年来，新医针挑科在陈栋教授的主持下不断地致力于临床与科研教学工作。公开发表于医学核心期刊论著138篇，其它杂志、报刊39余篇。
新医针挑科早在2002年就被评为医院首批特色专科。在不育不孕症、男科病和颈肩腰腿痛诊疗方面有独到之处。尤其是男性不育症、前列腺疾病和椎间盘突出症。也是国内最早开展针挑治疗不育不孕症（男女同治）与腰椎间盘突出症的专科（专病）之一。自2002年起，连年主持并举办“中西医结合诊治不育不孕症”国家级中医药继续教育项目培训班6期。同年“针挑疗法对原发男性不育症精子异常的临床研究”获国家中医药管理局“中医临床诊疗技术整理与研究”科研专项，通过多年的临床研究，课题已通过国家验收和成果鉴定，并作为2009年第四批全国百项中医临床适宜技术·科技成果推广项目向全国推广。2007年“陈氏挑针治疗不育不孕症”被中国中医药科技交流中心列为科技成果推广项目。由于该项目具有专业、精确、快捷、高效的特点，医疗知名度及患者满意度不断提高，已在周边地区乃至东南亚树立了良好的声誉。
