Report
My Wife Barbara went to see Ruth for acupuncture for fertility as we were going through IVF and great news in August this year (2020) positive pregnancy result and Babs is now 22 weeks pregnant expecting a little girl in April 2021.
Ruth has the most calming gentle personality and couldn't have went through her journey without her and currently upkeeping her treatment during her pregnancy. This is our second ivf successful pregnancy thanks to Ruth and the fertility clinic GCRM. Cannot recommend Complimentary Medical Centre enough.
