Dr. Siew is a licensed and board-certified Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. She offers grounded, compassionate care with the intention for her patients to experience being heard and supported in every stage of their health journey. Her own experience with acupuncture and integrative medicine inspired her clinical focus of women’s health. In the midst of studying pre-medicine in Boston, she experienced monstrous PMS, depression, anxiety, and debilitating periods. After several hospitalizations due to extreme menstrual pain, and jumping from physician to physician without any answers, she sought out the support of a women’s health acupuncturist as a last resort. This was the first time in years of seeking help where her symptoms were validated and met with curiosity, and she received integrative care that resolved the root issue within months. This experience inspired Dr. Siew to pivot from biomedicine to Traditional Chinese Medicine to support the countless women who are facing similar challenges and yearning to be heard, seen, and supported in their reproductive health journeys. Her practice is centered on serving women and couples with reproductive health and fertility challenges, from cycle support (for conditions like Endometriosis, PCOS, and PMDD) through fertility and postpartum. Dr. Siew completed her Doctoral (DACM) and Masters (MSTCM) degrees at Pacific College of Health and Science in San Diego, which included 4800 hours of clinical and didactical hours in acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, and western medicine.
