She is famous,Dr Xiao-Ping Zhai has helped hundreds of infertile women get pregnant, using acupuncture, herbs and boiled twigs.She is MATCM as well, our colleague.

It helps that Zhai trained in western medicine in China, working as a paediatrician in Guangzhou before coming to the UK, and consultants seem happy that she speaks their language in clinical terms. Lavery says: "We have had pregnancies occur in which her input has been critical. It is quite rare to come across somebody practising such therapies with a degree of credibility, but the thing about Zhai is that she doesn't only embrace her own philosophy. She works with us, not against us, and that overlap with western medicine is what makes her unique. I don't know if her success is to do with her acupuncture, her herbs or just her being a very, very good physician ? which is an important part ? but the feedback is remarkable. At our clinic, we think she brings something new to the table."

It is for this reason that she has been nominated by Clare Lewis-Jones, CEO of Infertility Network UK, as a key speaker at the Fertility Show in London next month. Wow, We are looking forward to her professional Chinese medicine speech. Source:guardian.co.uk ________________________________________________________________________________________________
