Bridging Western and Eastern medicine, I’ve dedicated decades to developing an approach that harmoniously weaves together modern medical insights with time-honoured natural therapies. This journey has been marked by continuous discovery and evolution, driven by my commitment to understanding the profound connections between bodily structure, function, and healing.
My therapeutic perspective was fundamentally shaped during my formative years in a stroke unit. There, working with neurological patients revealed the intricate interplay between the nervous system, brain, and body. This experience led me to pursue advanced training with distinguished mentors across diverse therapeutic approaches. My expertise expanded beyond diagnostics to encompass a broad spectrum of physical therapies specifically designed to support rehabilitation of the nervous system.
In the early years, my practice concentrated on addressing structural stress while enhancing neural connections and recovery. Through this work, I made a remarkable discovery: precisely administered acupuncture and physical treatments could create profound shifts at the brain level, yielding impressive results for various chronic conditions.
When my small natural medicine clinic in South West London was frequented with women experiencing challenging, often turbulent hormonal transitions and early hormonal deficiency, the outcomes proved extraordinary – extending far beyond the expected relief from immediate symptoms. While treating conditions stemming from hormonal imbalance – including hypothyroidism, weight gain, paralysing anxiety, fibroids, and tumours so on – an unexpected pattern emerged that would reshape my practice.
To everyone’s amazement, many women not only recovered from their challenging symptoms but also experienced restored fertility at an advanced age. Several patients, previously diagnosed with various, often serious fertility issues, achieved confirmed pregnancies, defying earlier prognoses. These unexpected successes revealed new possibilities in reproductive health and led me to a deeper understanding of the body’s regenerative potential.
These transformative outcomes ignited a new purpose in my practice. I found myself increasingly dedicated to helping couples achieve their dream of parenthood. This focus has proved profoundly life-changing – both for my patients and my own professional journey. Through the years, I’ve continuously refined my diagnostic acumen and hands-on expertise, developing specialized approaches to optimize fertility naturally while also providing targeted support for those undergoing assisted reproduction treatments.
Each successful pregnancy reinforces my commitment to this specialized field. It’s deeply fulfilling to witness how this unique integration of Eastern and Western approaches continues to create new possibilities for couples on their fertility journey, as we transform lives, one baby at a time.

During my years of practice in London, I’ve observed an unusually high prevalence of metabolic energy deficiencies and hormonal and immune disorders leading to fertility challenges. This observation has guided my focus toward reproductive medicine, a dynamic field that demands continuous engagement with emerging research and therapeutic advances.
My clinical interests centre on several key areas in reproductive health:
