Testimonials


There was a time in my life when I didn’t think I would be able to have babies. I had just suffered two devastating pregnancy losses and was in a very dark place. I was constantly researching ideas, strategies, and specialists who could help me to have a healthy pregnancy. Doctors kept telling me I was healthy and to keep trying. I knew there was some reason for my losses even though doctors told me it was “bad luck”. I was leaving no stone unturned. Through this process, I came across Kristen and her practice and it will always be one of the best decisions of my life to go talk with her. She was so thorough when deciding on a treatment action plan for me and asked me questions about things that doctors had not bothered to look in to and most of all, she listened to me. Her prescription of vitamins and herbs combined with my individualized plan of acupuncture led to the birth of my healthy beautiful miracle baby boy who is now 4. So, it was no question when my husband and I wanted to try for a second baby, that I would go see Kristen again. After some more bumps in the road and another pregnancy loss, Kristen was instrumental in me seeking and obtaining a key diagnosis that explained all of my pregnancy losses. After a simple course of western medicine treatment combined with Kristen’s suggestions of vitamins, herbs, and acupuncture, my husband and I now have our second beautiful boy to complete our family. Kristen gave me hope when I had next to none, and now I get to snuggle my two beautiful babies, my little dreams come true.

She is truly a healer with a blessed gift and I will forever be grateful for her expertise, optimism, encouragement, patience, and determination to help me grow my family. With my whole heart, thank you, Kristen. ❤️

Kristen made us believe that starting a family wasn’t a matter of “if” but “when.” Her expertise as an herbalist, her knowledge of local acupuncturists, and her holistic concern for our reproductive and emotional health made all the difference. Without Kristen’s care, we wouldn’t have our son.

We are forever grateful to Kristen for helping us achieve not just one healthy pregnancy, but three!!! This after being told we would need IVF. Tony has also treated one of children who had GI issues. He is wonderful, kind and gentle!
— Dr. Kelly Siudzinski, OBGYN

After 2 consecutive unexplained miscarriages (3 miscarriages in total) and extensive female and male infertility testing with no “issues” found we felt hopeless. We reached out to Kristen at Your Infertility Specialist and after a phone evaluation and health history questionnaire she was able to recommend a combination of vitamins and herbs for myself and my husband. She encouraged three months of strengthening our bodies with this regiment (and local acupuncture for myself) before trying to conceive again. Three months later were able to conceive and carry our son to full term. We are so blessed to have met Kristen - she is a highly skilled and knowledgeable fertility specialist who helped give us the greatest gift - our son.

Kristin is amazing and I don’t think that word even does her justice! She is the most kind, heartwarming individual you will ever meet. She KNOWS what she is doing! She is amazing at her job and the proof is in all those babies out there created with the help of Kristen!

I started going to Kristin in 2012 after struggling for a few years to get pregnant. I was 42 years old. My husband I had looked into fertility treatments, but luckily before starting any fertility treatments someone referred me to Kristen! I had my first visit with her in June of 2012 and in within weeks I was pregnant. I carried my baby full term and he was born perfectly healthy. I had the most amazing pregnancy and I contribute that in part to the fact I was getting treatments the whole time I was pregnant.

Please, if anyone is struggling with infertility go see Kristen!!! The doctors and nurses aren’t readily giving out this remarkable information, so all we can do is spread the word so that those families struggling with infertility have a chance to realize and live their dream of having a beautiful child!

I had acupuncture and Chinese herbs from Kristen that helped me get pregnant after 10 years of trying, helped me to have a wonderful pregnancy with twins, and I absolutely know that going to her for lactation issues is what has made me able to exclusively breastfeed my twins. What you will get from a session with Kristen is the best Chinese medicine/acupuncture and a priceless amount of support and understanding. You can feel how much she really cares for you and she is the epitome of what a healer should be. Would give her 6 stars if that existed!

I have struggled to write this review because I am still in shock. I don’t know that I have fully grasped the reality of our miracle. After 7 long, frustrating years full of fertility treatments and devastation my husband and I are finally expecting our first child. We started seeing Kristen right before we were to begin our very last option (IVF). We are so incredibly thankful that we found YIS! 4 months after we began treatment I became pregnant!

Their kindness, compassion and professionalism got us through one of the roughest times in our life. We will forever be thankful!
(Couple now has two children from our program, no IVF needed).

I came to Kristen after my second basically back to back early miscarriage. I felt lost, so saddened and not too hopeful. With our first pregnancy we had no issues staying pregnant so this was all new and super frustrating.
Not only is Kristen amazing at what she does but she was also there for the emotional times with open arms. She gave me so much hope after just my first session, I felt so relaxed in my mind and body. I looked forward to seeing her multiple times a week! I loved the way I felt with the herbs she was having my husband and I take, i literally never felt better!

After seeing her and taking the herbs religiously for almost 3 months I became pregnant again and had zero issues maintaining the pregnancy!

Because of her we now have an amazing four month old baby boy. I can’t thank her enough

I love them! It’s incredible what they can do. I covered a story for KTVB on how they can help women get pregnant. Amazingly and highly recommend!

I had the opportunity to work closely with Kristen Burris during a month-long rotation at the San Diego Hospice. She worked exceedingly well with Western-trained physicians. She never offered to treat anything outside her scope of practice, and was genuinely helpful in offering possible treatment solutions to patients with difficult treatment dilemmas.
— DR. STEVE MEISTER, M.D. SAN DIEGO, CA
Kristen is an expert in her field! Women I refer to Kristen are delighted with their care! She is very knowledgeable about women’s health including infertility. I highly recommend her.

I came to Kristen after just experiencing a miscarriage. We had been trying for 4 years prior to the miscarriage, and were completely devastated. After just 3 months of acupuncture and herbs prescribed by Kristen, we became pregnant with a daughter! She is now 2 years old, and we just welcomed our son at the beginning of January. We are so thankful we had no trouble getting pregnant with our son, and we know acupuncture healed my body for good!
— Eliza T.

I believe one of the main reasons my wife and I could have our child was because of Kristen. Thank you for everything.

I am a mess while pregnant. I had so many issues that I presented to Kristen and she was on top of it! I walked in with a headache I’ve had for weeks and couldn’t get rid of, I battle nausea and vomiting while pregnant, high blood pressure and edema… she addressed my issues and I feel like a new human after one session!

We just welcomed baby number three into our family and I feel an overwhelming amount of gratitude towards Kristen…When I came to Kristen…my husband and I had been trying for our second child for over two years. I had suffered a miscarriage ten months before and was receiving the usual infertility treatment from my OB/GYN. They…gave me infertility medication and referred me to the infertility specialist in town for IVF as my only other treatment option… Kristen is warm, caring, and she gave me hope at a time when I had none. I have always been afraid of needles and, as such never believed I would be okay with acupuncture – but I found myself looking forward to the treatments... The needles were mostly undetectable and I treasured the time I was on the treatment table…while I was worried about money I knew it was vastly less expensive than what I would pay for a (fertility) doctor…I got my positive pregnancy test just two months after my first visit with Kristen. My husband and I couldn’t believe how blessed we were but I was terrified of it resulting in another miscarriage. Kristen treated me and reassured me throughout the entire pregnancy and I gave birth to a healthy, beautiful baby girl at 41 weeks.

After the birth, I was concerned I would need to start acupuncture every time I wanted to get pregnant, but Kristen reassured me …that getting pregnant again shouldn’t be an issue. My family moved to Virginia a year later, and have since given birth to my third child!

I recommend Kristen…and urge them to see her before taking as long as I did. Her acupuncture should be a first step rather than the last, but thankfully, she works her magic no matter where you are in your journey.

Kristen is a legitimate miracle worker. We were diagnosed with unexplained infertility will several failed interventions under our belt before we found Kristen. We even had an IVF round that yielded no embryo growth under the care of a reproductive endocrinologist. I had been to a previous acupuncturist before, but the comparison was not even close. In her care, you know you are doing something that is going to be big. We also had many experiences with Tony, who again, like Kristen, is overall a wonderful human being. It’s hard to put into words how you feel around both Tony and Kristen, but I was definitely more at peace when I was receiving treatments.
After 5 months of treatments, herbs and supplements, despite our previous 2% odds given by a reproductive endocrinologist, we were pregnant. No additional interventions needed, just acupuncture. The joy of sitting on Kristen’s table, telling her you did it, will never leave my memory. She truly has a gift. I continued regular treatments during that time as well. When we were ready to try for #2, even though I knew often times, patients of Kristen and Tony didn’t need any help with additional pregnancies, I was terrified. Imagine my surprise when after 1 month of trying, I got to sit on Kristen’s table again and tell her, we’re pregnant!
I can never thank her enough for the gifts she’s given me and my family. There really is no real way to repay them. They are truly miracle workers who clearly love what they do and are fabulous at it!

Pregnancy loss. A club no one wants to be a part of, but one I found myself in about a year and a half ago due to an ectopic pregnancy…not once…but twice. Losing two chances at fulfilling my dream of a baby within 3 months time sent me to a dark place and was the most devastating time of my life. As someone who has always wanted to be a mama, the pain was almost unbearable and the strength it took to get through each day came from a reserve that I didn’t know I had. I was lost and confused and just plain sad. Surgery was suggested to me, but it was not imperative, so I decided to look at other options. After researching some natural alternatives to heal my body, I came across Your Infertility Specialist and knew I wanted to give them a try. Boy, am I glad I found them! Kristen suggested a technique to help move the (embryo) down the Fallopian tube- and it worked! Miraculously, our baby boy made his way down the tube doctors wanted to remove. Her continued support throughout my pregnancy has been amazing and so reassuring- and the sessions are so relaxing! If you are struggling with something, go talk with Kristen! It was the best decision I could have made.

I knew I needed something to get my cycle going again after our last baby (he is 2 years now) if we were going to be able to get pregnant again. After doing a bit of research online, I knew that Kristen and her team were the only ones I wanted to see; experts in their field with real experience in fertility and real results! My cycle is not very regular…(after seeing Kristen)…I was able to ovulate and then we got a positive pregnancy test! We were thrilled and couldn’t be happier that we found a specialist in fertility in our greater area (we live in Melba) who is so good at what they do!
We continued to see Kristen until she got us safely through the first trimester (we suffered a miscarriage… prior to seeing Kristen) and at the end of the pregnancy to balance my body in preparation for labor. Now we have our 3 month old safely in our arms…we are so in love.
