Arrive Reproductive Medicine

Anne fell in love with the philosophy of Chinese medicine as an anthropology student at UCLA. In 2004, she received her master’s degree in Traditional Oriental Medicine from Emperor’s College in Santa Monica. Anne’s interest in women’s health led her to Sydney, Australia, where she studied the integration of in vitro fertilization (IVF) and acupuncture with renowned author Jane Lyttleton. A year l

ater she worked with Dr. Lifang Liang, author of "Acupuncture & IVF” and was part of one of the first onsite acupuncture programs for an IVF clinic at Pacific Fertility Center (PFC) in San Francisco. Anne also has advanced training in acupuncture orthopedics from Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Beverly Hills where she collaborated with many western doctors including neurologists, rheumatologists, radiologists and chiropractors. She is a Fellow of the American Board of Oriental Reproductive Medicine (FABORM) and a Diplomate of the National Board of Acupuncture Orthopedics (Dipl.NBAO). Anne’s practice is largely centered on couples that are trying to conceive. She sees many women with endocrine issues such as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and helps support couples through the in vitro fertilization (IVF) process. She loves to take the time to listen to her patients and to explain the integration of Chinese medicine with western medicine. She also sees men and women for other complaints such as allergies, back and neck pain, digestive issues, stress and low immunity. Anne lives in San Francisco with her husband, Ben, and very busy toddler, Luca. Anne recently joined the Mama Lounge team to be closer to her family in the city. Previously she was in private practice at Balance Restored in Marin for nearly ten years.
