Mike Berkley is one of a kind. Simply put, he is a wonderful practitioner who has an incredible capacity for caring for his patients. When I first reached out to Mike, he took the time to answer all of my questions, explain things to me very clearly, and never make me feel rushed or uninformed. In his treatment sessions, he is thoughtful, thorough, caring, and always happy to have a conversation to impart more knowledge that he has amassed in his career. Mike creates a space not only for treatments but to talk about everything that is impacting your journey and he helps you learn more each step of the way. I am extremely happy to have found Mike Berkley and would highly recommend.

I am extremely grateful for everything Mike has done for me, during my first weeks of pregnancy, he was an excellent support and an extraordinary source of knowledge. He was always present whenever I had questions, both on weekdays and weekends. He followed me during my IVF treatment. I am sure that acupuncture is complementary to the process, especially at the Berkeley Center. It was a huge success. Thank you very much! Lucie

I cannot say enough positive things about Dr. Mike Berkley. The decision to seek out his care has been a turning point in my fertility journey. I just feel better, like I have a doctor on my team. Before my conversations with Dr. Mike, I felt scared and anxious all the time. The experience Id had thus far with my fertility doctor/clinic caused me to feel uninformed, ignored, and shut out of really important information about my own body, hormones, and fertility factors. Dr. Mike took the time to really get to know everything about my health history, lifestyle, and personal history that could possibly impact my fertility. His no stones unturned approach felt reassuring, and also led to discoveries about deficiencies and hormonal imbalances that could be impacting my egg quality. I felt listened to, respected, cared about, and armed with information that can help me along my way. Not only that, he made it easy to get herbs shipped all the way across the country and he collaborated with my local acupuncturist, so that she could administer new needle points for me. Dr. Mike is thorough, caring, knowledgable, and so helpful. Additionally, he is a fun guy to chat with! Highly recommend.

I was in agony and couldn’t walk after my booster shot for at least a year commitment I had this bizarre rash that would be bleeding when I woke up in the morning from scratching so much that no doctor could address or explain.I went the natural way called Mike Berkley, even though he specializes in infertility he is a healer.Right hand to God when I got off the table stopped itching and has not bothered me since and I was walking with almost no pain at all‼️Berkley gave me my life back. I recommend him more than I can even say he is a true healer and a gentle , kind person who really cares‼️🙏🩵

I wish I had known about the benefits of acupuncture when I first started my fertility journey. After an unsuccessful transfer, I did a deep search online and discovered a lot of women talking about acupuncture. After much research, I found the Berkley Center for Reproductive Wellness and specifically gravitated here as they specialized only in fertility success. I was treated by Mike for pre-and post transfer sessions, as well as weekly sessions until I was Week 13. I am now in my 2nd trimester and miss my sessions with Mike. He is extremely knowledgeable in women’s reproductive health and has such a quirky personality, which I loved. I cannot say if acupuncture was the reason my 2nd transfer was a success, but it sure does not hurt especially while we are all hanging on to hope. If you are considering acupuncture, I highly recommend seeing Mike at the Berkley Center for Reproductive Wellness!!!

In a world of infertility unknowns, the Berkley Center for Reproductive Wellness was a welcomed constant. Mike is wonderful! My fertility doctor suggested acupuncture as a stress reliever, and acupuncture was something I could do in an unexplained infertility world I was living. I admit I was hesitant because I am not good at lying still without anything to entertain me, and meditation does not come easily for me. I soon learned to relax with Mikes guidance and therapy. He became not just my acupuncturist but my therapist, coach and friend. I started working with Mike to increase my egg quality about two years ago. He is knowledgeable in fertility medicine, and I looked forward to our sessions. I have since graduated from acupuncture and can excitedly report I am in my 2nd trimester! I owe a lot to Mike!

In a world where there is very little emphasis on quality of care and as patients feel nothing more than a a number, going to Mike has been a breath of fresh air. Mike views each person as unique, and treats them as such. He takes his time to thoroughly learn about his patients, and then customizes his care based on the patient. I feel like I can always pick up the phone and call him with any questions and concerns, and hes always more than willing to provide support. I highly highly recommend going to Mike Berkley - his many decades of experience and trustworthy knowledge is so invaluable and has helped so much in every step of my journey.

I found Mikes practice through his amazing Google reviews; and as such, I feel compelled to share my own. This is a long review, but I imagine that most of Mikes clients, as I did, read all of his reviews before taking the steps to make an appointment. So, I wanted to share *all* about my amazing journey at the Berkley Center.I began seeing Mike in February of 2023. Having had previously favorable experiences with acupuncture, I wanted to do everything I could as we sought to have another child. Acupuncture is, of course, less invasive than many of the medical fertility procedures, so I really wanted to start here. As such, I wanted to see someone at the top of their game as a practitioner--and all of Mikes reviews supported he was just that. And, I just wanted to be as efficient with my time as possible!Mike was extremely prompt in contacting me after my initial inquiry. He worked with my schedule; and, from the get-go, I was impressed with everything. His office is beautiful--wonderfully curated to make his clients feel as relaxed as possible. Truly, you feel like youre in a spa! And, as a practitioner, Mike is skilled--for those on the fence about acupuncture, I assure you that with Mike, there is no discomfort at all. In fact, during many of my visits, I fell asleep.Now, I sought this practice to help me conceive. And after a few sessions (I think I had seen Mike three or four times at this point?), I thought that to be the most efficient with my time, I would see Mike while simultaneously seeing a Reproductive Endocrinologist (RE). I had my initial visit with my RE, and got the requisite bloodwork before beginning a possible journey of IUI. Well, I got a call later that day after my RE appointment that I was pregnant. So, I never actually needed to get IUI!I then continued seeing Mike, right through my 12 week mark (I think...maybe it was a few weeks more?). Of course, things were working so well that I wanted to do everything I could to ensure my pregnancy remained both viable and healthy. I asked Mike on more than one occasion if I could continue seeing him; and, this is where his character and honesty really shined. He said this wasnt necessary, as research doesnt support continued visits made an impact after this point of pregnancy. Here I was, willing to spend more money at his business, and he declined. I think that speaks volumes about Mike, who he is, and the kind of honest business he operates.Fast forward a few months, and I gave birth to a beautiful, healthy baby boy! I do not understand the nuances of the practice of acupuncture and Eastern medicine; but, I can indeed say that all it can do is help. And, I am so grateful to Mike that his work helped me grow my family! I cannot recommend him enough!

I sought out accupuncture at the recommendation of my reproductive endocrinologist. The fertility process has felt somewhat impersonal at times, which has never been the case at the Berkeley Center for Reproductive Wellness. As someone who has never done accupuncture I was super nervous, but Mike Berkeley made sure I felt comfortable and supported throughout the process. The initial assessment was thorough and he made sure all of my questions were answered. He has a wealth of knowledge on the subject of accupuncture and reproductive health. I cannot recommend him enough and will continue seeing him throughout my pregnancy. Thank you Mike!

Mike is the best acupuncturist. He always tries his best to help me and gives me good advice. I went to Mike because I was struggling with infertility . With only a few sessions with him, I was pregnant within a few months, less than a year. He has helped me so much in a short amount of time. I’m so happy I have found him. If I could give him more than 5 stars I would.He has also been so supportive and has become a friend to me. Mike is extremely honest and knowledgeable and very caring in treating infertility. I highly recommend him. Now I have a beautiful baby boy. Thank God for Mike🙏🏾

I went to see Mike at the recommendation of my friend who had twins! He was so helpful in several ways, including psychoed and the actual acupuncture. He was easy to talk to and provided a super comfortable environment. He told me to do a couple things as I started my journey, and one of those things allowed me to find out my fallopian tubes were blocked. He was way more helpful than my Gyno and I could not be more grateful to have worked with him. He gave me the best gift ever- the chance to have a perfect little boy!!

Mike Berkley is definitely one of the best oriental medicine doctors in New York and the north east in general, an authority over the treatment of infertility and one of the pioneers in the treatment of infertility using Chinese medicine, one of the firsts in the United States. I highly recommend Mike to anyone seeking infertility treatment and also for other women health issues.

After I was told I would not be able to conceive naturally, I looked for different alternatives . I found and contacted Mike Berkley and I am so glad I reached out to him . He is very supportive, encouraging and tries to accommodate you as much as he can . He worked based on my schedule . Mike always told me to not lose hope since everything seemed to be against me . After 4 to 5 months of doing acupuncture I conceived naturally and now I have a beautiful baby boy!. Since accupuncture helped me so much in improving my egg quality I am considering in returning back for future pregnancies. I definitely recommend The Berkley Center for Reproductive Wellness to anyone . He is very knowledgeable and knows what he is doing .Thank you so Mike!

This is long overdue but it’s because we have a newborn at home!! :). Look, there are so many factors and levels involved as to why and when babies come to us. but there’s not a shred of doubt in my heart that Mike was a huge part of our daughter finally making her way to us. He gave us hope when we were low and always made us feel it was going to happen. And of course, the acupuncture and herbs did their job because we got pregnant…it took some time but it happened….and we are grateful to Mike for his part of our daughter’s story….much love and thank you again Mike!!

Mike Berkley is an incredible fertility acupuncturist. Ive only been working with him for a short while and I have seen changes in my body since doing acupuncture. Mike Berkley is truly an amazing person and I am really blessed and grateful to have meet such a kind soul. He is truly the best. I live in long island and I can easily go to a closer acupuncturist near me but I rather go to the city! He is amazing!!!

My experience working with Mike has been nothing short of amazing. He is one of the most pragmatic and optimistic humans I have ever met. He cares about his patients and wants to help them excel in their pregnancy journey. I came to Mike feeling very disheartened by a diagnosis of PCOS. Within one month of treatments, I received happy news and I know I owe this to working with Mike. He is one of my biggest cheerleaders and I will miss seeing him weekly.

I went to Mike for acupuncture to assist with fertility. I am advanced maternal age and wanted to improve my egg quality. I worked with Mike for 4/5 months before seeing an RE. During this time Mike was very professional and incredibly knowledgeable about acupuncture and fertility- he was also was consistently on time and prompt with his services. I learned a lot from Mike and to the delight of my husband and I conceived following his treatments. I am convinced that seeing Mike and taking the herbs he prescribed is the reason why my egg quality improved. Mike is also a caring guy who provided great emotional support throughout the process. If we decide to try again, I will absolutely going back to him to prepare my body. Thank you Mike!

Thank God for Mike! After I experienced a setback during my first IVF cycle, I found his practice on Google and I submitted an email. Mike got right back to me within the hour! He was so patient, knowledgeable and even texts! :-) He treated me for my next egg retrieval and we got 4 high grade embryos! At my age, Mike basically performed a miracle, lol. I plan to continue under his treatment for my transfer and I am very optimistic. If you are looking for an acupuncturist on your fertility journey, you MUST book Mike.

Mike was a very important part of my journey to get - and stay - pregnant. In addition to being positive, supportive and engaging, he knows his work better than anyone. The combination of acupuncture and Chinese herbs worked wonders for me when expensive, tiring and cookie-cutter IVF treatments did not. I will be forever grateful to Mike for my daughter. Hes simply the best (and I cant believe its taken me almost 5 years to write this).

I can’t say enough about Mike Berkley. I absolutely adore him. He has only been treating me for about a month but I feel like I’ve known him for years. First of all, he is highly skilled at performing acupuncture, he’s gentle and thoughtful, and he’s just super honest and real. Also he’s just cool and fun to be around! He’s just someone you want to have in your life forever.I had been considering acupuncture to help me get pregnant, as it was recommended by my reproductive endocrinologist, and was excited to be connected with someone who only does acupuncture for fertility! I didn’t even know that was a thing. Anyway he’s great and I’m grateful.If you are on the fence about whether or not you should undergo treatment with Mike, I say go for it! You won’t regret it. Good luck 💜

Mike is a lovely person and an expert in Acupuncture. I connected with him virtually to seek deeper understanding of acupuncture and benefits in re-fertility. He explained it so well and answered to all my questions. Whenever, I visit NYC will take treatment from him. Thank you.

I went through three IVF cycles - and the third is when I started going to Dr. Berkley consistently and had incredible results. From the initial phone call - he was so kind and explained the entire process. The in person intake was thorough and I really felt like he took the time to understand what was going on during my IVF journey. Id highly recommend him to anyone in need of fertility acupuncture. Hes been so informative of the entire process and easy to schedule times based on my busy schedule.

Doctor Berkley is the most compassionate and supportive doctor I have ever worked with. He truly cares about supporting his patients and doing whatever he can to get the desired outcome. My husband and I were struggling to conceive when we first met with Doctor Berkley. Our initial appointment was nearly two hours of him listening to our concerns and discussing our medical history. He took the time to really listen to me, which no doctor has ever done. Whenever I texted him with a question, he always took the time to call and talk me through his response providing me with as much information as he could to help us make a decision. We eventually ended up undergoing IVF and Doctor Berkley helped support the success of our embryo transfer with pre and post transfer acupuncture. Doctor Berkley even supported me in finding an acupuncturist that was closer to home who I could continue with now that I am pregnant. I truly have never met a more compassionate and caring person. Doctor Berkley is a true expert in his field and we are forever grateful for the support (physical and emotional) and guidance he provided us in achieving this pregnancy. Thank you Doctor Berkley!

I have always been a strong advocate of other methods of modern holistic medicine, from herbs to sound healing. At my age, I have been nagged with pain and annoying aches that have been minimize and relieved with these other alternatives. I have recently been experiencing shoulder pain, which after conferring with my physical therapist, recommended acupuncture in addition to my therapy. The Berkeley Center, thanks to Mike Berkeley, has assisted and enhanced my healing process. The atmosphere and personal attentiveness makes this the only place to experience this complex yet beneficial tool to healing. I highly recommend The Berkeley Center, not only for fertility but also for assisting in pain relief and better well being. Continued success to this Center that places your personal needs first.

Mike Berkely has tried multiple times to gain access to a private support group in a state over a thousand miles away to market his services to vulnerable women. After being told in no uncertain terms he would not be admitted, he attempted to join again. I would not trust a practicioner who behaves in this way.

It is really disturbing that this clinic would spam their website on other fertility clinics social media. Do your own due diligence and create your own content for your own base. Its unethical that this practitioner feels its appropriate to ride the coat-tails of another fertility clinics success. It is NOT ok and I would question their ability in treating patients if they feel the need to stoop to this level.
