Meet Dr. Cathy Li
Hong Kong · Calgary · Xiamen · Guangzhou
Dr. Cathy Li is a Registered Acupuncturist in Alberta and has been practising Chinese Medicine in Calgary since 1997. She followed her mother, Dr. Lai-Heung Yuen — a well-known TCMD in Hong Kong and Calgary — and began learning Chinese medicine and acupuncture from a very young age.
After graduating from the Alberta College of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine, Dr. Li successfully combined her knowledge of theory with practice. In order to pursue further knowledge and experience, she travelled to China and Hong Kong to take advanced training in various hospitals and clinics — including Xiamen Chinese Medicine Hospital and Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine Hospital. During these training sessions she studied with well-known TCM experts and received intensive clinical training, further enriching and strengthening her professional skill.
Dr. Li has a well-developed practice in the treatment of common illnesses, chronic disorders, cancer patient care, and many difficult and complicated diseases. She also has an expertise in women’s health — including menopausal syndrome, dysmenorrhea, and fertility issues. Dr. Li has been practising both acupuncture and Traditional Chinese herbal remedy at the Great Wall Health Centre since 2010. Her professional work ethic and diverse experience have earned her wide respect and many patient referrals.
