About Nature's Grace and Staff
Nature's Grace, Inc. was formed in 1998, when its founder, Dr. Xiao Mei (May) Zhang O.M.D., Dipl. Ac, L.Ac, envisioned a company that could present Traditional Chinese Medicine to the west as not only an alternative to western medicine, but one that could partner with western medicine. She felt this would allow both practitioners to provide a much higher level of healthcare for all patients.
