Dr Suzi Craig is a Chinese Medicine practitioner and a Women’s health consultant. For the last 10 years Suzi has been working in private practice assisting women with various concerns including trying to conceive (either naturally or using assisted reproduction services), women who have irregular cycles or painful periods and cycles, women who have symptoms associated with suspected hormonal fluctuations that may look like mood swings, emotional or personality changes or sleep issues, and women who experience skin changes including acne or premature ageing. Following a consultation she then looks at potential underlying cause and then discusses management strategies. These can include looking at diet, stress levels, sleep concerns, or working with a GP or specialist for further intervention. As a Chinese medicine practitioner she includes acupuncture, supplements and herbal medicine when these are warranted in your treatment plan.
At the end of 2021 Suzi completed her Masters in Reproductive Medicine through UNSW. This degree has provided her with the tools to access and better understand the most up to date research on areas, not just within assisted reproduction, but also menopause treatments and contraception, as well as complex conditions like PCOS and endometriosis.
For the women and couples that come in to see her she feels well equipped to guide and assist with complex health issues.
