 Here is my idea:

    To get an idea of how much the public accepts acupunture. Before the interview with  Aundra Mink, the receptionist of Whole Health Center in Colorado, she stated she had  been recieveing acupunture for the last five months; making her the perfect  candidate to interview.          The first question was: How has acupunture helped  you?

This way you do not have to use "I" in the essay, but you would keep it there for the quote.
