I was having difficulty conceiving my first child. Dr. Schwerte listened to me and evaluated my life style and all other symptoms before offering his treatment. And couple of months after starting with his acupuncture treatment combined with herbal supplements, I was able to get pregnant. Of course things did not end there. He has a solution for everything including my “all day “nausea in the first trimester. His treatments made a huge difference. My nausea went down significantly after a few acupuncture sessions. I could finally function at home and at work. And the last 6 weeks of my pregnancy I was lucky to have Dr. Schwerte’s expertise with labor preparation. My labor pain was much lighter than I expected – to the extent that I did not realize I am in real labor! It went very fast too and I was able to deliver my son without any medication, just like I wanted to. I feel lucky to have found Dr. Schwerte. With his deep knowledge of Western and Eastern/Chinese medicine and his love for helping people he offers a complete, high quality care.

I started going to Dr. Schwerte while I was also going through some fertility procedures. During this stressful time, almost immediately, Dr. Schwerte’s calming personality, knowledge and extremely positive attitude were helpful. The treatments were relaxing and effective – my IVF round was successful! On the day of implantation, I was told that my uterine wall looked “great”, and I attribute this to the acupuncture as it had not always been the case. Dr. Schwerte worked with me and the “Western Medicine” approach that I was taking rather than speak negatively about it as some had done before. I would highly recommend Dr. Schwerte, especially if you are going through fertility treatments – his skill, attitude and knowledge were just what I needed.

I had previously been to other acupuncturists trying to find one that understood infertility and could coach me through this process. Since I had met with so many other acupuncturists, I felt I had a good understanding of what makes a good one. Dr. Schwerte is extremely knowledgeable and an expert in his field, well above his peers. He spent 2 hours with me initially to do a full work up of my health.  He is an amazing listener and helps you put a plan together to achieve your goals. I had been chronically tired for quite sometime and he ran a few tests to determine that I had a mild case of adrenal fatigue.  He put me on an herbal regiment and my energy returned. I have never felt better.

Even better news, I am finally pregnant after 2 years of trying. I would recommend him to any patient suffering from infertility.

My partner and I were trying IUI(s) to conceive a baby and everyone we knew was recommending acupuncture to support the fertility process. We found Dr. Schwerte through a personal referral and I found him to be knowledgeable, kind and supportive.  His treatments were gentle, his questions about my health detailed and I never felt rushed in his office.  After only 3 IUIs and three months with acupuncture I was pregnant! I still find it hard to believe. I continued to see Dr. Schwerte and he monitored my pregnancy and in August 2007 we had a beautiful, healthy baby boy.

Both my partner and I can’t say enough about Dr. Schwerte and his compassion and caring nature. Needless to say, we are also complete believers now in acupuncture! It changed our lives completely and we can’t put into words how grateful we are.
