Attending AOMA Graduate School of Integrative Medicine in Austin Texas provided a chance to work in our schools herbal pharmacy for 2 1/2 years and was the start of my passion for Chinese herbal medicine. Many of our patients in student clinic were female and responded well to my formulas under supervision from my mentor Ma Dongxin who chiefly focused on women's health.
In the United States, approximately 9 million people are currently having difficulty trying to conceive. There is a one in eight chance that either you or someone you know is affected by infertility problems. For women under age 35, infertility is defined as the inability to conceive after one year of actively trying.

Our fertility story began years ago when my husband and I first began trying to conceive. After 5-6 months, I realized that my menstrual cycles were highly irregular. I made a visit to see my gynecologist in Atlanta, where she ran several hormonal tests through blood work.
Several days later, she notified me that the results were abnormal and because she knew we were trying to conceive, she immediately referred me to a reproductive endocrinologist (RE).It was here that things took a turn for the worse. After the RE determined that my egg reserve (AMH) was undetetectable, I was told that I was not even a candidate for in vitro fertilization (IVF).

Anxiety and depression affect about 40 million American adults each year. Shockingly, that makes up nearly 20% of our population. While modern life has helped make many aspects of daily living easier, peoples' stress levels has continued to rise and the result has taken its toll on our mental health.

He only treats when treatment is necessary.He is knowledgeable in infertility domain and his herbs work like a charm to cure issues , stress and anxiety during whole process. he has a great bedside manner, he listens to everything and makes a note.I highly recommend Mark if you are someone suffering for infertility.

Cathy has the best bedside manor you could ask for. She made the overall experience very comfortable for me- and I am not a fan of needles. Best yet, she was knowledgeable about my fertility protocol and very supportive. I have used other fertility acupuncturist and in my opinion, and I would rank Cathy at the top of that list. She takes the time to ask questions at each accupuncture visit and will tailor it to what you need that day. I would highly reccomend Cathy! Did I mention, we are expecting! :)

I started seeing Mark in 2020 as I was trying to get pregnant. Being a bit older I understood the challenges & that it may take longer but I still wanted to try naturally. I met with Mark weekly for acupuncture & he placed me on Chinese herbs to help with various things. I definitely felt better and saw some improvements with my cycle. Towards the end of the year I decided to take time off from treatment, and voila! I fell pregnant naturally! I really feel the acupuncture & herbs were key & highly recommend Mark: he has a great bedside manner, is very knowledgeable & listens. Now that I am 5 months

My journey with fibroids has been one of the worst experience of my life. They have hinder me for years from conceiving another child. I had two Myomectomy, and the fibroids always came back. I started seeing Dr. Cathy at the end of January 2021. During this time, my cycle was irregular, cramps were unbearable, and I had heavy bleeding. For the last two months my cycle has been 28 days, I have minimal pain, and my cycle is no longer heavy throughout my period. I have also noticed my stomach is a lot softer, which is a good sign. Dr. Cathy is very attentive, knowledgeable, and easy to talk too.

I can't recommend Mark enough. I saw him for about a year for an infertility issue that seemed hopeless. I was able to see progress during treatment through working in tandem with Shady Grove Fertility (Dr. Namnoum). Now I have a healthy happy baby girl! She really is a miracle and I am so thankful I gave acupuncture a try!

Kelly is simply amazing! I started going to her due to severe asthma and allergies. Upon my first visit, she took the time to complete a comprehensive evaluation and identified a few other areas that I needed to address. Kelly is very patient, kind and personable. I have been going to her for several years now and her treatments always get me back on track. Since I started seeing her, I no longer have issues with allergies, asthma and sleep better at night.
I even continued seeing her throughout my pregnancy. I am of advanced maternal age (over 35) so I wanted to be sure to do EVERYTHING I could

I was struck with Bell’s Palsy on Dec.21 and at my worst by Jan.1. I was able to see Kelly soon after calling and today Jan.8 am 70% better after three sessions with her! She is a Chinese medical genius! The place is kind, knowledgeable, and informative. Never in my 63 years have I been so satisfied with my treatment. Thank you Kelly!

"What the sayer of praise is really praising is
himself, by saying implicitly,
'My eyes are clear.'
Likewise, someone who criticizes is criticizing
himself, saying implicitly, 'I can't see very well
With my eyes so inflamed.' "

1. So many of us walk zombified through our lives, controlled by aches and pains, numbness, emotional instability and erratic behavior. We can't see when we haven't looked at the source of our discomfort but instead we blame others and outside

Kelly has been really helpful in treating my depression and anxiety. After 9 years of suffering, taking prescriptions that did nothing to improve my health, I was suggested to try Acupuncture and Traditional… medicine. I started in March and after two months my anxiety was completely gone and I had felt true happiness for the first time since being diagnosed with depression. I would definitely recommend Kelly! She really takes the time and care into alleviating the problem.
