I work with patients who have not been helped by other healthcare models.


I listen to patients who have sometimes never felt listened to properly before.


I support patients working on all aspects of their lives toward optimal health.


I provide foundations to support fertile families for generations to come.


Christian faith is the heart of my practice.

Restoring Fertility

Couples struggling with infertility aren't broken--our healthcare system is. As a Restorative Reproductive Medicine (RRM) practitioner and fertility specialist, my approach is different from conventional fertility care which often relies on medical interventions that work around the problem rather than addressing the WHY behind it. I believe in digging deep with comprehensive functional diagnostics to uncover the root causes of infertility, allowing us to restore fertility whenever possible.

Longevity Fertility

Pass on healthy fertility to your children.

Fertility challenges are not just obstacles; they are opportunities to discover hidden health issues, improve overall wellness, and create a foundation of health that can benefit future generations.

By focusing on individualized care and evidence-based restorative reproductive medicine treatments, I am committed to helping couples achieve their dream of growing their family while empowering them to leave a legacy of health, vitality, and fertility to their children.

Testimonials

5 star reviews

Doctors indicated there was nothing for me to do but take medications for my hormone and fertility issues. After one month of acupuncture I have seen miraculous results in my body that I thought I would never see.

I finally got my period with her herbs and supplements based on lab tests. Today I am 41 and I am pregnant! I am forever grateful for her.

Five black stars in a row.

I was pregnant after 3 months, after years of trying! I believe this was due to following her recommendations. I can't thank Dr Amy enough!

In this role I coordinated fundraisers for ACCAHT, partnering with Doncaster women's designer clothing. I coordinated the assembly and delivery of rescue bags for human trafficking vicitms, and performed rescues of women and minors trafficked by organized crime.


    I collaborated with the Alachua County Rape Crisis Center to provide 30 acupunture treatments to 6 rape victims. I coordinated payment for treatments through grants and the  Victim Compensation Trust  Fund (funded by convicted perpetrator court fees, not taxpayer money). I won a national award for pioneering this work.

    I love reading, gardening, cooking traditional foods, motocross, the beach, and praying every day for my patients and the unborn. You might catch me at Our Lady of La Leche or the farmer's market with our dog-in-a-purse chihuahua we call JJ, and the love of my life Robert by my side.
