I saw Porter in 2022 & 2023. I first went after facing infertility for over a year. I finally got pregnant naturally almost exactly 3 months after starting with him. I had a miscarriage and then got immediately pregnant the next cycle again. That one was also a miscarriage. At that point we decided to pursue IVF and I continued to see Porter. We had a great egg retrieval, and got pregnant on our first transfer. Because we’d gotten pregnant naturally, we did a modified natural transfer which was so much easier. I’m not sure that would have been an option if it hadn’t been for Porter! Our daughter is now 2. Porter was not only a great practitioner, but also an incredible resource on all things TTC. He keeps update with current research and shares relevant articles. He has insight into different doctors and practitioners through all of his patients. He’s an incredible resource, in addition to being incredibly caring and kind. I highly recommend him!!
From my very first phone conversation with Porter, he was incredibly kind, thoughtful and patient with such a delicate topic. He spent over an hour talking to me and answered so many questions I had that doctors seemed to not have the time or desire to address. I hung up feeling very heard and like I had spoken to a real care provider in the true sense of the word.
After trying to conceive at age 39 for a handful of months, I became pregnant after only two months of treatment with Porter - I am sure it was acupunctures influence that put my body in balance to conceive!
A weekly session with Porter is something I looked forward to as he takes a lot of care...read full review
I cannot say enough positive things about working with Porter through our secondary infertility journey. From the beginning, he was incredibly professional, thorough, kind, encouraging, and created a space where I felt genuinely heard and cared for during a very emotional and frequently overwhelming season.
Each session left me feeling so deeply relaxed, grounded, and hopeful. Over time I noticed subtle but meaningful changes physically. I have no doubt that Porter's care led me to naturally conceive our son after 2 years of failed medicated cycles, IUIs, recurrent loss and an IVF egg retrieval. What meant the most was how supportive he was not only during treatments,...read full review
