We had the good fortune of connecting with Dr. Daniel Hamedani and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Dr. Daniel, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I grew up seeing holistic doctors, and their approach to health always resonated with me. This inspired me to delve into the world of acupuncture and Chinese medicine. As I furthered my studies, I observed troubling global trends: countries like Japan, the U.S., China, and South Korea, to name a few, have been seeing declining birth rates. This isn’t just a statistic; it’s indicative of challenges that many individuals face in their reproductive journeys, compounded by various environmental and societal factors. I felt there was a need for holistic, affordable options to support those wanting to embark on the journey of parenthood. Many are under the impression that the world is overpopulated, but recent labor shortages hint at the challenges of decreasing populations. I’m driven by the belief that there is immense joy in parenthood, and I aspire to offer a supportive pathway through acupuncture and Chinese medicine.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
At Fertility LA, we pride ourselves on offering a unique approach to fertility that combines the wisdom of both Western and Eastern medicine. We meticulously evaluate every individual by examining vital indicators like hormone levels, basal body temperatures, daily habits, energy levels, blood quality and quantity, and male factor considerations. This comprehensive assessment allows us to understand and address underlying fertility concerns from a holistic viewpoint.

Embarking on this journey hasn’t been without its challenges. Every business, particularly those in specialized fields like ours, faces its share of hurdles. The initial days required immense dedication, long work hours, and a lot of self-reliance. But the journey, while demanding, has been incredibly rewarding. There might be other paths in this industry, but I truly believe in the approach we’ve taken at Fertility LA. It’s an embodiment of my vision for the most effective, natural method to support fertility.

What I’d like the world to know about our brand is our unwavering commitment to providing the best possible care to those looking to embark on their journey towards parenthood. Every step we take at Fertility LA is driven by a deep desire to make a difference in the lives of our patients.

My journey in the holistic health field began at home, with my parents. They were staunch advocates for a natural approach to health and wellness, placing well-being above all else. This foundational belief led me to Dr. Rivas of INVIVO Natural Health during my high school years. Not only is he a world-renowned holistic health practitioner, but he has also been my trusted doctor ever since. Starting my career under his mentorship was an immense privilege. Dr. Rivas isn’t just an inspiration to me but to all his patients. I owe a significant part of my story to his guidance and the values instilled by my parents.
