Why me?

Dr. Zheng has been trained to integrate conventional and natural medicine to give you the most natural, scientific and evidence-based treatment protocol.

  • Patient Center Care: Best communication starts with listening. Your experience, your opinion would be highly valued in our care. Dr. Zheng takes the time to listen and respects to your need, discusses treatment options with you and creates a plan that works best for you. You are not only getting to know the diagnosis but how the condition evolved, how it will affect your body and how you can make a change.
  • Treating Root Causes of Disease, Rather Than Just Symptoms: You want healthcare solution that works and lasts. Dr. Zheng does not treat the symptoms, but the person who has the symptoms. She is helping you to understand the message from your own body and connection between your body and mind. She considers the root cause and helps you to recognize and empower the self-healing inside your own body.
  • An Ounce of Prevention Is Worth A Pound of Cure. Zheng believes that preventive medicine is the best form of health care and she provides health care instead of sick care center service.
