Yes we direct bill
If your extended health plan covers acupuncture and/or naturopathic medicine, please bring your policy card to your appointment. We can only direct bill your primary insurance, so if you have secondary coverage, you’ll need to submit your invoice to that provider yourself. We also need a credit card on file. If a direct-billing claim doesn’t go through, that card will be charged the uncovered portion or the full amount.
Services in Vancouver
Integrative fertility care, all under one roof.
Fertility Acupuncture
Phase-based acupuncture and Chinese medicine to support cycle regulation, blood flow, and nervous-system balance while trying to conceive.
Naturopathic Medicine
Hormone and diagnostic testing, clinical nutrition, botanical medicine and, where indicated, prescriptions — with our naturopathic doctors.
IVF, FET & IUI Support
Care timed with your clinic’s protocol, including embryo-transfer-day acupuncture. We work alongside PCRM, Olive, Twig and Grace Fertility.
The Male Factor™
A structured 90-day protocol supporting sperm health, hormones and overall wellbeing — because fertility is a shared journey.
Pregnancy Support
Early pregnancy support and care through each trimester, plus attuned support after miscarriage or pregnancy loss.
IV & Injection Therapies
IV vitamin and nutrient therapy and targeted injection therapies, offered as part of an individualized plan.
We also support PCOS, endometriosis, thyroid and autoimmune conditions, recurrent pregnancy loss, pelvic pain, PMS, stress and menopause.
The Yinstill Fertility Method™
Care that moves with the body’s natural rhythms.
Developed over more than 20 years of focused fertility practice, care unfolds through three phases, each building on the last.
Phase 01 · Months 0–3
Shift
Usually weekly visits to regulate cycles, calm the nervous system and lay a strong foundation.
Phase 02 · Months 4–6
Transformation
Steady, consistent care through the roughly 90-day renewal cycle of egg and sperm development.
Phase 03 · Months 7–12
Manifestation
Treatment timed to your natural cycles or IVF/IUI protocol — the season in which we see pregnancy.

FAQ
Questions patients often ask.
How do I book my first appointment in Vancouver?
Online initial fertility consultations with Dr. Pentland can be booked directly through our online booking. For an in-clinic initial appointment, call 604.873.9355 or email office@yinstill.com and a Care Coordinator will match you with the right practitioner. For IVF, FET, IUI, PCOS, endometriosis, pregnancy and other concerns, book in-clinic with your chosen practitioner.
Is there a free way to find out if Yinstill is right for me?
Yes. Book a complimentary 15-minute Discovery Call. We’ll listen to where you are, answer your first questions and help you decide on next steps — no pressure.
Is treatment covered by insurance?
Yinstill does direct billing, therefore if your extended health covers acupuncture and/or Naturopathic medicine please bring along your policy card to your appointment. *Please note that with direct billing we also must have a credit card on file. A credit card will be charged for percentage of total or full amount when direct billing does not process for any reason. We can only process your primary insurance coverage at one time through our direct billing system. If you have secondary coverage you will need to submit your invoice to them manually to receive reimbursement of your payment.
Where do I park?
Free street parking is available along East 19th and East 20th Avenues, and paid street parking is right in front of the clinic on Main Street. Allow a few extra minutes to park and settle in.
Can you support me through IVF at another clinic?
Yes. We coordinate timing with your IVF or IUI protocol, including additional visits around retrieval and embryo transfer. We work closely with PCRM, and many patients also receive care through Olive, Twig and Grace Fertility.
Should my partner be seen too?
We encourage it. Sperm health plays a meaningful role in conception and early pregnancy, and The Male Factor™ protocol supports men’s reproductive and overall health. We welcome all families, including LGBTQ2S+ families, donor conception and surrogacy.
How do I change or cancel an appointment?
Please call or email the clinic so your care team stays aligned with your plan — online self-cancellation isn’t available. Late cancellations are subject to a 50% fee; no-shows or cancellations within one hour are charged in full.
