About The Berkley Center For Reproductive Wellness
The Berkley Center for Reproductive Wellness in the Midtown East neighborhood of Manhattan, New York, is a premier fertility acupuncture clinic specializing in the treatment of infertility by combining time-tested Eastern therapies with Western medical approaches and testing.
Infertility specialist Mike Berkley, LAc, FABORM, was the first acupuncturist in the United States to specialize in fertility issues, and he utilizes decades of experience and deeply rooted empathy to help couples rewrite their fertility narrative and improve their reproductive health.
The clinic prioritizes effective care, combining traditional treatments like acupuncture and herbal medicine with innovative low-level light therapy (LLLT) to overcome various fertility obstacles. To ensure couples have as few obstacles as possible on the challenging road to parenthood, The Berkley Center for Reproductive Wellness also offers home visits for fertility acupuncture, with flexible scheduling and personalized care. We have also developed an acupuncture protocol to increase the odds of pregnancy for couples undergoing assisted reproductive technologies (ART) such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intrauterine insemination (IUI).
Once pregnancy occurs, The Berkley Center for Reproductive Wellness adjusts the goal of treatment to focus on miscarriage prevention, particularly in the vulnerable first 12 weeks. Whether couples need solutions for female or male infertility, they have access to personalized testing and care at The Berkley Center for Reproductive Wellness.

What Patients Say About Us
DR MIIIIKE is THE BEST! He’s highly skilled, very personable and super caring about his patients. He makes you feel like his only patient and is super generous with his time and knowledge. I can’t say enough positive things about him. Love him!
Dr Mike Berkley has been my support system for my medical journey since the first day i started acupuncture services with his wellness centre. Mike would go an extra mile to provide medical advisory beyond services i was seeking at his centre, he created a safe space for me to open up about anything that stressed me out during my medical journey, he was always my “go to person” whenever i felt overwhelmed with my medical circumstances! The Doctor patient relationship Mike created for me as his client is amazing! I would highly recommend Mike without any hesitation!
Mike is an absolute lifesaver. Not only did he accommodate us on an urgent basis, but he did so with consistently attentive, thorough, and compassionate communication that went above and beyond my expectations. Mike’s subject matter expertise is topnotch and his sterling reputation is well deserved. 10 out of 10!
My pregnant wife received extraordinary fertility acupuncture from Mike. He has unparalleled experience and knowledge. He is a great listener and is very patient in explaining procedures. The environment is calm and professional, with meditation music playing in the background. The treatment seems to have been very effective. Highly recommended!
Mike Berkley is one of a kind. Simply put, he is a wonderful practitioner who has an incredible capacity for caring for his patients. When I first reached out to Mike, he took the time to answer all of my questions, explain things to me very clearly, and never make me feel rushed or uninformed. In his treatment sessions, he is thoughtful, thorough, caring, and always happy to have a conversation to impart more knowledge that he has amassed in his career. Mike creates a space not only for treatments but to talk about everything that is impacting your journey and he helps you learn more each step of the way. I am extremely happy to have found Mike Berkley and would highly recommend.
I cannot say enough positive things about Dr. Mike Berkley. The decision to seek out his care has been a turning point in my fertility journey. I just feel better, like I have a doctor on my team. Before my conversations with Dr. Mike, I felt scared and anxious all the time. The experience Id had thus far with my fertility doctor/clinic caused me to feel uninformed, ignored, and shut out of really important information about my own body, hormones, and fertility factors. Dr. Mike took the time to really get to know everything about my health history, lifestyle, and personal history that could possibly impact my fertility. His “no stones unturned approach” felt reassuring, and also led to discoveries about deficiencies and hormonal imbalances that could be impacting my egg quality. I felt listened to, respected, cared about, and armed with information that can help me along my way. Not only that, he made it easy to get herbs shipped all the way across the country and he collaborated with my local acupuncturist, so that she could administer new needle points for me. Dr. Mike is thorough, caring, knowledgable, and so helpful. Additionally, he is a fun guy to chat with! Highly recommend.
Mike at the Berkley Center is a gift to everyone ! My wife and I have been seeing Mike for a very long time – and every session is better than the last
I am extremely grateful for everything Mike has done for me, during my first weeks of pregnancy, he was an excellent support and an extraordinary source of knowledge. He was always present whenever I had questions, both on weekdays and weekends. He followed me during my IVF treatment. I am sure that acupuncture is complementary to the process, especially at the Berkeley Center. It was a huge success. Thank you very much! Lucie
I was in agony and couldn’t walk after my booster shot for at least a year commitment I had this bizarre rash that would be bleeding when I woke up in the morning from scratching so much that no doctor could address or explain.
I went the natural way called Mike Berkley, even though he specializes in infertility he is a healer.
Right hand to God when I got off the table stopped itching and has not bothered me since and I was walking with almost no pain at all‼️
Berkley gave me my life back. I recommend him more than I can even say he is a true healer and a gentle , kind person who really cares‼️🙏🩵

I wish I had known about the benefits of acupuncture when I first started my fertility journey. After an unsuccessful transfer, I did a deep search online and discovered a lot of women talking about acupuncture. After much research, I found the Berkley Center for Reproductive Wellness and specifically gravitated here as they specialized only in fertility success. I was treated by Mike for pre-and post transfer sessions, as well as weekly sessions until I was Week 13. I am now in my 2nd trimester and miss my sessions with Mike. He is extremely knowledgeable in women’s reproductive health and has such a quirky personality, which I loved. I cannot say if acupuncture was the reason my 2nd transfer was a success, but it sure does not hurt especially while we are all hanging on to hope. If you are considering acupuncture, I highly recommend seeing Mike at the Berkley Center for Reproductive Wellness!!!
I started working with Mike in December and he was incredibly kind and thorough! I can’t thank him enough for his compassion support and most importantly achieving success !!
Thank you Mike for being a part of my journey, You created a ‘safe space’ for me, physically and emotionally, whenever I felt overwhelmed and stressed out. Your cordial doctor-patient relationship is amazing! I will highly recommend you to anyone who requires your acupuncture services without hesitation.
In a world of infertility unknowns, the Berkley Center for Reproductive Wellness was a welcomed constant. Mike is wonderful! My fertility doctor suggested acupuncture as a stress reliever, and acupuncture was something I could do in an unexplained infertility world I was living. I admit I was hesitant because I am not good at lying still without anything to entertain me, and meditation does not come easily for me. I soon learned to relax with Mike’s guidance and therapy. He became not just my acupuncturist but my therapist, coach and friend. I started working with Mike to increase my egg quality about two years ago. He is knowledgeable in fertility medicine, and I looked forward to our sessions. I have since “graduated” from acupuncture and can excitedly report I am in my 2nd trimester! I owe a lot to Mike!
I found Mike’s practice through his amazing Google reviews; and as such, I feel compelled to share my own. This is a long review, but I imagine that most of Mike’s clients, as I did, read all of his reviews before taking the steps to make an appointment. So, I wanted to share *all* about my amazing journey at the Berkley Center.
I began seeing Mike in February of 2023. Having had previously favorable experiences with acupuncture, I wanted to do everything I could as we sought to have another child. Acupuncture is, of course, less invasive than many of the medical fertility procedures, so I really wanted to start here. As such, I wanted to see someone at the top of their game as a practitioner–and all of Mike’s reviews supported he was just that. And, I just wanted to be as efficient with my time as possible!
Mike was extremely prompt in contacting me after my initial inquiry. He worked with my schedule; and, from the get-go, I was impressed with everything. His office is beautiful–wonderfully curated to make his clients feel as relaxed as possible. Truly, you feel like you’re in a spa! And, as a practitioner, Mike is skilled–for those on the fence about acupuncture, I assure you that with Mike, there is no discomfort at all. In fact, during many of my visits, I fell asleep.
Now, I sought this practice to help me conceive. And after a few sessions (I think I had seen Mike three or four times at this point?), I thought that to be the most efficient with my time, I would see Mike while simultaneously seeing a Reproductive Endocrinologist (RE). I had my initial visit with my RE, and got the requisite bloodwork before beginning a possible journey of IUI. Well, I got a call later that day after my RE appointment that I was pregnant. So, I never actually needed to get IUI!
I then continued seeing Mike, right through my 12 week mark (I think…maybe it was a few weeks more?). Of course, things were working so well that I wanted to do everything I could to ensure my pregnancy remained both viable and healthy. I asked Mike on more than one occasion if I could continue seeing him; and, this is where his character and honesty really shined. He said this wasn’t necessary, as research doesn’t support continued visits made an impact after this point of pregnancy. Here I was, willing to spend more money at his business, and he declined. I think that speaks volumes about Mike, who he is, and the kind of honest business he operates.
Fast forward a few months, and I gave birth to a beautiful, healthy baby boy! I do not understand the nuances of the practice of acupuncture and Eastern medicine; but, I can indeed say that all it can do is help. And, I am so grateful to Mike that his work helped me grow my family! I cannot recommend him enough!

In a world where there is very little emphasis on quality of care and as patients feel nothing more than a a number, going to Mike has been a breath of fresh air. Mike views each person as unique, and treats them as such. He takes his time to thoroughly learn about his patients, and then customizes his care based on the patient. I feel like I can always pick up the phone and call him with any questions and concerns, and he’s always more than willing to provide support. I highly highly recommend going to Mike Berkley – his many decades of experience and trustworthy knowledge is so invaluable and has helped so much in every step of my journey.
