About Me

Dr. Patricia “Patchi” Malfitano, DACM, L.Ac., FABORM, based in the Upper West Side of New York City, is committed to providing compassionate, integrative care. She believes that everyone, regardless of shape, size, orientation, gender identity, or background, deserves to feel seen, heard, and respected in their healthcare journey. Above all, Dr. Patchi is dedicated to helping you thrive—whether that means feeling more at ease in your body physically and emotionally, conceiving a child, or achieving your wellness goals. She is honored to be part of your care team.


Combining her passion for sports and healing, she started her career specializing in sports acupuncture, helping others stay active and pain-free. Along the way, she noticed many of her female patients struggling with hormonal imbalances and fertility challenges. Driven to make a difference, she immersed herself in advanced training in hormonal balancing and reproductive health, discovering a deep passion for women’s wellness. Today, her practice focuses on women’s health, fertility and pain management.


Dr. Patchi is a fellow of the Acupuncture and TCM Board of Reproductive Medicine, completed The Integrative Fertility and Reproductive Medicine Mentorship Program and is currently completing The White Pine Institute Women’s Great Turning Cycles one-year herbal mentorship to better serve her fertility and hormonal health clients.
