Women's Health Clinic

Dr Zhang is qualified in both Western Medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Her experience includes general gynaecology, with a major interest in infertility, menopause and gynaecological oncology, in which she has 20 years experience.

We strongly believe that the best approach to health care is one that takes into account the whole person, including physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of health. This multi-dimensional approach cannot be fulfilled by conventional medicine alone, and often requires an integration of conventional and complementary practices. Regardless of the treatment, the goal for any doctor is to restore the health of the patient. The achievements of conventional Western Medicine over the last few decades have been remarkable. However, there are some cases where conventional medicine has no positive answers, whereas complementary medicine offers different and often successful treatments. TCM includes an element of healing and support that conventional medicine lacks. Integration of TCM into conventional medicine often works in favour of the patient’s health.

We specialise in the use of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) to treat a full range of women’s health problems. The Women's Health Clinic is one of the few Traditional Chinese Medicine practices completely devoted to infertility and women’s health care.
