Testimonials from Dr. Yao’s Patients

“Dr. Yao is a godsend!! We went to Dr. Yao back in September 2018 in hopes that she could help us figure out why we were having difficult conceiving. With her help, we have a perfectly healthy baby boy.  Also, she is attentive to her patients during the appointments and makes sure she is able to provide resources and educate you about your fertility and pregnancy. We love her and I’m sure any women struggling with fertility would benefit from her wholistic and natural approach because her main goal is to determine the root cause of the problem that that could affect infertility.”

“We went thru several years of fertility treatments with negative results. I started seeing Dr. Yao in December 2018. By January she had already changed my life. I lost 20 lbs and my painful periods were improving. I found out I was pregnant in June 2019. She guided me throughout my pregnancy with supplements and progesterone. Always listen to all my questions and concerns. So thankful to be under her care. About to have my baby boy in February 2020; could not have done so without her.”

“I came to Dr. Yao at age 39, after trying to conceive for 1 year and had a miscarriage at about 10 weeks gestation. At that point, I was already using BBT and urine ovulation test kits. Dr. Yao helped me understand my potential causes of miscarriage. She also helped my husband loose weight and improved his sperm count. Within eight months of working with Dr. Yao, I got pregnant. I am now 40 years old, at 34 week gestation, and so far the baby and I are healthy. I am so glad that I found Dr. Yao, a medical doctor who uses science-based approaches to improve fertility naturally. I strongly recommend Dr. Yao to anyone who wants to get and stay pregnant naturally.”

“Dr. Yao is your doctor if you have trouble conceiving. She is a healer like every doctor should be. I am only 37 y.o. and I suffered from autoimmune issues, pms, and extremely painful menstruations that nobody was able to diagnose (except dr yao) and what’s worse I had severe digestive issues that made me so sick that I could not function and work. Dr. Yao prescribed me supplements that healed my belly quickly, then added supplements to assist in regulating my cycle. She nurtured me back to health so I can even go back to work now! I am so grateful to Dr.Yao. She specializes in NaPro which is highly successful. Every woman should be educated about it. We don’t need to suffer, be out of balance with hormones (pms etc), we just need Dr.Yao :). Thank you wonderful doctor!!!!”

“I met Dr. Yao in June 2017 when I heard her speak about natural fertility. At that time, I had already had 2 miscarriages after trying to get pregnant for almost a year. Dr. Yao gave us tangible & scientific info. I took her advice to heart, made some lifestyle changes, and made an appointment to see her. When I saw her, she ordered some blood tests and recommended some supplements. In every explanation, she was clear but also sensitive and understanding. I am now 5 months pregnant, due in February 2018, and incredibly thankful for the guidance, important info, and hope that Dr. Yao gave to me.”

“Since seeing Dr. Yao, I have seen such a difference in my health and menstrual cycle! I have had an irregular cycle for most of my adult life (I am in my mid-20s). Dr. Yao determined what the problem was, and my cycle is now very regular! It feels so good to know my body better and to have an idea of what is going on now! Also, I love that Dr. Yao uses holistic medical practices. I have been to many different doctors before who used medication to cover up problems, instead of getting to the root of it all. Dr. Yao uses safe, beneficial, and holistic medicine practices to help heal your body and help you feel so much better naturally. It is amazing.”

“I went to Dr. Yao initially as a hot mess– incredibly distraught over irregular periods for most of my life and just overall anxiety. Dr. Yao was such a great help in taking the time to really diagnose the problem and treated me like an actual human being. I really appreciate the time and care that Dr. Yao gives to help me on my road to being the best me and listening to my body’s needs! I also really appreciate that Dr. Yao didn’t rush to prescribe anything until after looking at things from a holistic perspective. You won’t regret seeing her :)”

“Dr. Yao is one of the best doctors I’ve ever had. My husband and I tried to conceive for about three and a half years before seeing Dr. Yao. She tested for things my other doctors never thought to look for, and she recommended the best supplements and treatments, always trying for the most natural approach. From my first appointment I felt that I was in good hands. Each appointment she spends a significant length of time going over lab and test results, coming up with a treatment plan, and answering all of my questions. I never felt rushed. I fell pregnant after only six months of working with Dr. Yao, and she has continued to support me throughout my pregnancy. She seems up-to-date on the latest research. Every appointment was absolutely worth the money we spent and I’m so grateful to have found such a compassionate and caring doctor! Thank you, Dr. Yao!!”

“Dr. Yao is one of the most compassionate and realest doctors I’ve ever encountered in my medical experiences. She gives so much thought, care, time and energy in every patient and I’ve never felt rushed once. Everything she does is whole-hearted and you can tell she doesn’t cut corners. She is very organized and has every detail of you down to a T and is always ready with recommendations and advice on every visit. All of her explanations make sense. I am so grateful to have found her and to have had her guidance throughout my holistic fertility and wellness journey.”

“Dr. Yao is a wonderfully thoughtful practitioner. She has a kind and soft demeanor, listens well, and takes the time to answer questions thoroughly. I found her sort of by accident when my OB/GYN wasn’t listening to my concerns about trying to get pregnant with PCOS. Dr. Yao took the time to help me learn more about my cycle and teach me how to set myself up for success. I felt empowered and supported through out the journey.

She really took my personal case by the hand and made suggestions truly based on what I was going through. I even asked her about some common things prescribed to women trying to get pregnant with PCOS and asked why we weren’t doing those things.  She showed me my lab results and the work we had been doing together and explained what those prescriptions are for. She helped me understand that just because I had PCOS didn’t necessarily mean that those were the best course of action for me.

Just finishing my 1st trimester with a healthy baby on the way and I can’t be more thankful that I stumbled upon Dr. Yao and her practice.”

After recurrent miscarriages, mom successfully had baby #2

35yo mom welcomed baby #2 after 4 consecutive pregnancy losses

Feeling tired and defeated, and sick of hearing from her OB that she should keep trying to conceive without making any changes, this mom knew she had to do something different. She knew that it is crazy to keep doing the same things and expect a different outcome. That was when she decided she needed to take action, and sought help from Dr. Yao. Within a few months of working with Dr. Yao, having made lifestyle changes and taking various supplements, both her and her husband felt much healthier and she got pregnant. Immediately, she noticed this pregnancy felt different. Her energy with this pregnancy was so much better. Her HCG (pregnancy hormone) levels were the best she has ever seen at about 4 weeks gestation. With ongoing support from Dr. Yao during pregnancy, she welcomed her baby son, who was born healthy and at full-term.

women previously not ovulating and had long cycles, was able to ovulate without medication using a holistic approach

29yo woman, not ovulating, with 80+ day cycles, able to ovulate without med

Having failed 4 intrauterine inseminations (IUI's) over a period of a year, Jenni was frustrated to say the least. She was tired of the numerous ultrasound monitoring of her cycles that she had to do while taking ovulation-inducing medication like letrozole. She was given the diagnosis of unexplained infertility by her reproductive endocrinologist. She was disappointed that no real effort was made for searching the root cause of her fertility struggles. Working with Dr. Yao was different. Dr. Yao promptly ordered all sorts of tests, for both Jenni and her husband. Based on these tests, Dr. Yao provided both of them with personalized treatment plans. With the plan, she ovulated on her own for the first time ever. Shortly after being able to self ovulate,  Jenni successfully got pregnant and delivered her healthy baby at full term.
