First Visit - Your
Consultation
On your first visit you will have a detailed consultation with Dr. Lee, who will ask you about your medical history and symptoms. Her questions will be very extensive, including lifestyle, diet, eating habits, etc. Some of the questions may bear on your infertility. Then Dr. Lee will look at your tongue and check your pulse by which she is able to tell the state of your health. Once Dr. Lee is done with the collection of requisite information, she will make an analysis of your symptoms to determine the root cause of your infertility based on the theories of traditional Chinese medicine. During the consultation she will explain to you what needs to be done to address your infertility and provide answers to your questions as best she can. As causes of infertility vary from person to person, treatment plans for patients differ. She will discuss with you your special needs and the treatment plan for you. The consultation normally takes 30 to 60 minutes.
