I've received traditional acupuncture sessions for 50+ years from a variety of acupuncture…read moreproviders in Bay Area, and at last and none too soon, I discovered this superb and experienced acupuncturist! Her office is comfortable, clean and professional, scheduling with a receptionist in the office. Nancy herself is older and wiser than other acupuncturists-she just knows where to put needles after understanding what you need/want in a brief q and a health conversation. She "gets it" and gets to work! My primary reason for this review of Nancy's practice is Nancy-non-judgmental, very caring and experienced, she listens, providing the best possible outcome of presented issues. Also, she doesn't try to sell you herbs, teas, treatments that so many less experienced try to include. Just the basics with compassion, simply and powerfully, reasonably priced.

I thought I would give it a try as acupuncture has really helped in the past with healing some chronic issues. After just one session with Nancy, I was pregnant. Unfortunately, I had a very difficult miscarriage and though I was looking at a d&c, she was able to help me avoid this unwanted process. Once I started TTC again, it only took a few cycles. I'm not sure if it's connected to acupuncture but this pregnancy has been amazing. No nausea or aversions to anything, plenty of energy to keep up my routine, get plenty exercise, travel out of town frequently for work, and most importantly, sleep well! Nancy is pure magic! She's also helpful in guiding your diet and general health throughout pregnancy.

At best, I can say that she's not a trauma-informed provider and seems to be a stereotypical surgeon with zero bedside manner and an ego the size of Canada. At worst, it seems like she may not actually care about her patients at all beyond seeing them as potential stats with which to bolster her career and her own self-image. My experience with her was truly loathsome and I don't wish one like it on any other patient. It took five more years of excruciating pain and going to another KP district, out of her sphere of influence, to get the care that I'd needed for 20 years at that point. To that surgeon, it was perfectly obvious that I needed surgical intervention. All was explained by the crap she later hauled out of me. It took a surgeon willing to be curious, to listen, and to believe what she was hearing. Eve Zaritsky did not have any of those in her at that consult nor in the communication that followed; she was nothing short of a cold, abrupt, impatient, gas-lighting troll. Far from being a healer, she did damage to me that day and later refused to take any responsibility for her words and actions. Suffice it to say, I'm not a fan.

For about half the month, I was deep in brain fog, exhausted, overwhelmed, and disconnected. Nothing really brought me joy, and my nervous system felt like it was constantly buzzing on high. The other half of the month, when I started to feel a bit better, I was mostly just recovering from how depleted I had been. It was an awful cycle. Working with Dr. Jenn has been truly life changing. She didn't just help me understand and regulate my hormones, she supported me through the full experience of perimenopause in a way that felt deeply holistic. She took the time to talk through the psychological, emotional, spiritual, and physical shifts I was going through, which made me feel seen and understood in a way I hadn't before. Now, I feel like I have my brain back. I have energy again. I can work out at the level I want, which is incredibly important to me as a dance teacher, and I feel happy and present with my child. Most importantly, I feel hopeful about my future again. I truly don't think I would have been able to make some of the big life changes I've been navigating without Dr. Jenn's support. She helped me get to a place where I have the energy, resilience, and clarity to show up for my life. I'm so grateful for her care and would highly recommend her to anyone navigating perimenopause.

Until they get their own Yelp account, I'm going to review their doctor on their behalf. I wish I was younger and Marcia would accept me as her patient. I would actually be happy just being younger but... anyway, she's the best doctor I have ever dealt with. No-nonsense yet friendly, she reminds me in a way of my mother. I have no idea why since my mother was a 4 ft 8 anal-retentive, ball-busting, nazi-Korean woman who terrified all those that knew her. (Really, she was all goo and honey inside). Marcia's approach is relaxed but knowledgeable in ways that put new moms at ease. I remember my daughter's first visit when she was 3 days old. After examining the baby, she asked me if my milk had come in. I just looked at her with that "how the fuck should I know?" look. Without a word, she reached in over my shirt, pulled out a boob and gave it the expert squeeze and out shot a stream of breast milk. "Yup - you got milk" is what she said. Some people would be put off by this but me? I knew that I made the right choice.

I mention her rural beginnings because she is down to earth and practical, in addition to funny, fast, intuitive, honest and observant. Our first child had major health issues and Marcia stuck with us all the way - couldn't have felt more supported. (She even came to our house at one point.) She's always been right on target with diagnoses and after a recent phone consultation, she sent me email articles about a concern with one daughter that proved incredibly helpful in figuring out next steps, including a referral. Our daughters are now "aging out" and I'm kinda sad that our days in those sunny exam rooms are behind us, but I know we must make room for more uncertain, worried new parents wanting the best for their children. (Also, 21 year olds just don't want to see a pediatrician!) Look no further - though compare if you must - you will return to "Dr. Marcia" if you want a combination of experience, compassion, intelligence and humor. The office staff has always excelled at staying on schedule and they also are good at answering/returning phone calls. I've used both offices, and though I prefer the Berkeley office it surely is nice to have so many options. We've seen Dr. Vo as well - she's great, too.

And how hormones weren't even included in it! The option they offered me was injecting myself with a localized blood thinner everyday for the next pregnancy. With a very vague "possibility" of what the cause could be. I left uncertain about the option, and sought out a Holistic Fertility Doctor for a second opinion. I came across Dr. Aumatma and listened to a podcast she was a guest on. I found her to be transparent about what her wheelhouse was and what she believed in. That resonated with me, so I set up initial appointment with her. I had all her recommended labs done prior to the meeting, because I wanted her to get a good look to determine if we were a good fit for her. Her thoughts were very different from the conventional doctor we saw. She answered all our questions very clearly. And sounded like our problem was not uncommon and definitely in her wheelhouse. She gave us a Quick Look at her process, and we found it to be solid and universal. We have had much success with integrative approaches like hers. So, we went for it! Things took longer than we had expected to reach our green light, but everyone's bodies work differently and everyone needs to account for that! Aumatma's process requires real commitment from the couple. It's not a quick or easy fix. But both mine and my husband's health has improved in soooooo many ways, and the knowledge I've gained from the experience has been super valuable. We worked with Coach Sarah, who could not have been more of a perfect match for our family. We ask very complex questions and she always has phenomenal answers for them. And she was great at providing balance to my over-active mind. I am now 31 weeks into my pregnancy since we got the green light. I may be older than when I had my son 5 years ago, but the HFI program set me and my family up for success during this pregnancy. We are eating healthier. And feeling solid. And I am thrilled and grateful for the journey and where we are today! I still reach out to the team when I need a second opinion to the conventional during my pregnancy journey and I am so grateful to have access to it! THANK YOU, Dr. Aumatma, Coach Sarah, and the rest of the HFI team!

Her office staff…read moreRubie didn't seem to have any sort of empathy towards my experience nor seemed to understand how to have a normal conversation, was just reading off a script & was so cold. I then asked to learn more about the program, and was told I would have to put a $150 deposit for a different call (that you don't receive back if you don't move forward with a plan after learning about their program!) just to learn more about it. I've never heard of that before with these naturopath programs & it blows my mind, sounds extremely scammy. I've heard her on a couple of podcasts and thought the way she responded to questions seemed a bit unsympathetic & not what I was looking for in a caring doctor- this completely confirmed my suspicions. After a MMC, you'd think there'd be more care in this field especially as a naturopath but alas. I'm glad her program worked for some but preying on those that are vulnerable & having to pay to learn more about the program is predatory. There's not that much info on reviews for her either so I hope this catches the right eyes for those searching for help like myself to beware, protect yourself, and don't waste your time. There's so many better fertility programs out there with better staff and a communicative model.
