Dr. Connor is a gynecologic oncologist at the Intermountain Health West End Clinic in Billings, and most of her clinical work is preventing, diagnosing and treating ovarian, uterine, cervical, vaginal and vulvar cancers. Her Intermountain profile is the only one in her department that mentions menopause, and it says her Menopause Society certification recognises her knowledge of managing menopausal health with hormonal and non-hormonal options. She moved to Montana so women in the region would not have to leave the state for gynecologic oncology care. She travels to outreach clinics in Missoula, Butte, Helena, Sidney and Bozeman, and to Cody in Wyoming, so patients in small towns do not have to drive to Billings. New patients start by calling the clinic, because her profile offers no online booking and no video visit.
Allie Theiss is a menopause coach, not a licensed clinician, and she does not prescribe. The main service is a private three or six month coaching program on her own six-part framework, covering nutrition, supplements, flower essences, sleep and stress, intimacy and energy. Smaller options are a one-off audit with a recorded video review, and single paid sessions by Zoom, phone or in person in Akron. She writes that hormone therapy was not an option in her own menopause, and the program's answer to hormonal symptoms is supplements, flower essences and lifestyle change rather than medical treatment. When checked, the online calendars for the paid sessions showed no open times and were not taking payment, so the audit and the coaching program were the open ways to start.
She is a family nurse practitioner at UT Health San Antonio and works out of the Gateway clinic on Wurzbach Road. Her profile places her in two departments there, Endocrinology and Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolic Health. The diabetes team is led by an endocrinologist who works with nurse practitioners alongside the physicians. UT Health publishes no biography, no clinical interests and no conditions list for her, which is how the site treats its advanced practice providers generally. The other nurse practitioner in her department has the same blank profile, while every physician there carries a department list of interests that is word for word identical on each of their pages. Her page does say she is taking new patients, and established patients reach her through the health system's patient portal.

Erin Langley runs a two location acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine practice in Rockville and Silver Spring. Her site says she cares for women and girls at every stage and names perimenopausal and menopausal complaints like hot flashes, night sweats, brain fog and mood swings among what acupuncture can address. Treatment is acupuncture and custom herbal formulas, with cupping, gua sha, moxibustion or electro stimulation added when it fits, and she does not prescribe or manage hormone therapy. A first acupuncture visit runs ninety minutes and starts with a long conversation about health history before any needles go in. Herbal consultations can happen by video for people living in Maryland, and the formula is shipped to you. She spent over a decade in corporate maternal and women's health before going back to graduate school, and now sits on the board of the state acupuncture association.
MOOV El Dorado Hills is a physician-run longevity and aesthetics studio, one of nine MOOV locations. Dr. Braxley spent her career in emergency medicine before moving into longevity work, and she says her own health experience is what pushed her to change direction. Her focus is women, and she puts hormone therapy together with weight loss and everyday lifestyle changes. New patients usually start with a short virtual consult that works out which labs to run, and the plan is built from those results. The studio also does skin treatments, heart risk testing and GLP-1 weight programs, so hormone care sits alongside a lot of other services rather than being the whole practice. She is finishing board certification in obesity medicine in late 2026.
SmartMED is a family owned clinic in Roswell where most care happens at a drive-thru window, though primary care and hormone visits take place inside the building. Melissa Anderson runs the primary care and hormone management side of the practice. She is a member of The Menopause Society and did her hormone training through Harvard certification programs. A hormone visit starts with a symptom and history review, then targeted hormone and thyroid labs, and prescription hormone therapy when it fits, with follow-up labs to track how it is going. The practice runs its own lab arm, so you can pay for panels directly instead of going through insurance. One thing to know is that they do not prescribe controlled substances and will refer you elsewhere for those.
Solo virtual practice Stearns founded after a nurse practitioner career that began at a sexual medicine clinic and continued in geriatric primary care. She sees women through perimenopause, menopause and beyond, licensed only in California. New patients start with a free 15-minute discovery call and a long initial consultation with a questionnaire completed beforehand, then choose between stand-alone visits and The Midlife Membership, a concierge model with a four-month foundation phase and direct access between visits. She prescribes only FDA-approved hormone therapy sent to a local retail pharmacy and explains at length why she does not use hormone pellets. She does no in-person exams or procedures and works alongside a patient's primary care and gynecology providers. Beyond core menopause care she offers osteoporosis management and cancer-informed menopause care for women with a history of breast or gynecologic cancer.
Takes Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna +1 · first visit $220
Wildwood Physical Therapy is a two person clinic in Portland run by Kana Arreguin and her husband, who are both physical therapists. Kana treats female pelvic floor problems and breast cancer related lymphedema, and every session with her is one on one and runs 55 minutes. Her menopause work is physical therapy rather than medication, covering pelvic floor symptoms, urinary urgency, pain with sex, joint stiffness and balance. The site says she works with menopause specialists who can prescribe hormone therapy, so any prescribing happens elsewhere. She leans on hands on manual therapy and often acts as a case manager coordinating with other Portland providers, and she states plainly that she does not treat male pelvic floor concerns or lower body lymphedema. New patients start by emailing their details rather than booking online.
Chapel Hill Wellness Collective is a small integrative clinic, and Dr. Otter is its medical director and the clinician behind the hormone care. Her Perimenopause and Menopause Jumpstart Program opens with a consult about symptoms and goals, then builds a plan that can combine menopausal hormone therapy with lab work, meal and exercise guidance, and IV nutrient or NAD+ infusions. She writes hormone plans from current research and a patient's own lab results. Dr. Otter came out of emergency medicine and is also board certified in obesity medicine, so weight and metabolic health sit at the center of how she treats midlife symptoms, and GLP-1 medication is part of the program for women who need it. For what the clinic does not do itself it reaches outward, working with the Medical Day Spa of Chapel Hill on hormonal skin changes and with local pelvic floor therapists, and it offers the O-Shot for sexual health. Care is in person at the single Chapel Hill office, which is open four days a week.
Kristina Gardner is a family nurse practitioner at Access Internal Medicine, a small concierge primary care practice in Wilmington that she shares with a physician assistant. Hormone evaluation and therapy are part of her women's health care, and she offers video visits as well as office appointments. Patients pay a yearly membership on top of their regular insurance. Each clinician caps their panel at about 500 people, so visits run longer and same or next day appointments are usually possible. She spent about 15 years focused on diabetes care and is also a diabetes educator. The practice takes a functional medicine approach and will see members in the hospital or at home when needed.
Dr. Hoang runs a small solo gynecology practice in San Jose and has cared for women in the South Bay for more than twelve years. Her menopause program starts with a long first conversation about symptoms, health history, hormones and lifestyle. She offers hormone therapy when it fits, along with non-hormonal medicines, supplements and help with sleep and stress. She is also board certified in obesity medicine, so weight gain and metabolic health in midlife get real attention, and she runs a separate physician-led weight program that can include GLP-1 medicines. Patients can reach the office by phone or text between visits, and same-day or same-week appointments are often available. Many long-time patients first saw her for routine gynecology or pregnancy care.
Women's Care OBGYN is a group obstetrics and gynecology practice with offices in Shawnee Mission and Overland Park. Dr. Howe is a board certified OBGYN whose listed focus areas are hormone replacement therapy, robotic gynecologic surgery and obstetrics. Menopause care here runs as part of ordinary gynecology, so a visit looks like a normal appointment with your own doctor rather than a separate hormone program. For symptoms they describe hormone therapy and also non-hormonal medications such as SSRIs and SNRIs. New patients can book a new patient gynecology appointment online, though the scheduler carries a notice that it is still under development and asks you to call if your provider or appointment type is missing. Dr. Howe grew up in Lebanon, Missouri and finished her residency in Omaha in 2019 before joining the group.
Dr. Kolbas is a general OB-GYN at New England OB-GYN in Chestnut Hill, a large group practice affiliated with Brigham and Women's Hospital. She is one of the practice's certified menopause providers, and the practice evaluates and manages menopause as part of its gynecology care. Most gynecology visits happen in the office, and a provider can choose to do some visits by video. She speaks Spanish as well as English and has taught at Harvard Medical School since 2002. New patients have to register with the Mass General Brigham system before they request an appointment.
Kathryn Houston goes by Kitty and owns Elite Health HRT, which she also runs as medical director, with clinics in Roswell and the Hickory Flat area of Canton. Care is in person only, and the practice says plainly that it writes no online prescriptions and ships no medication. Hormone therapy here is given as an intramuscular injection, usually every seven to ten days, and a patient can come in for it or take a supply home. The practice will not use hormone pellets and explains why, since a pellet cannot be adjusted or removed once it is in. A new patient starts with a free consultation, has blood drawn in the clinic, and comes back for a second free visit to go through the results. She works with two other family nurse practitioners and the clinic treats men too, so testosterone therapy, GLP-1 weight care and peptides sit alongside the women's hormone work.
Dr. Wiggins-Smith is one of seven providers at Texas Health Women's Care in Bedford, an obstetrics and gynaecology office in the Texas Health Physicians Group. She trained twice, finishing residencies in both family medicine and obstetrics and gynaecology at Texas Tech in Lubbock. Her own page names menopause medicine as a special focus, along with managing diabetes and high blood pressure in pregnancy. She spent more than a decade practising in San Angelo before moving to North Texas. The Bedford office lists hormone therapy and menopause treatment and counselling among its gynaecology services, and she also does minimally invasive and robotic gynaecologic surgery. She sees patients by video as well as in the office.
Dr. Weisenfeld is a board-certified internist with rheumatology training who runs a small private-pay practice only for perimenopause and menopause. She sees patients in person in Westport and by video across Connecticut and New York. The first visit is a 50-minute consultation, and she pays particular attention to bone health. She also sees women with a history of breast cancer, and a free discovery call is offered before booking.
Adams directs Stanford's menopause program and sees patients at the gynecology clinic in Palo Alto. The program offers in person consults, video consults, and video group visits. She is board certified in both obstetrics and gynecology and in lifestyle medicine, so diet, exercise and sleep come up alongside hormone therapy. Before Stanford she spent 14 years as residency program director at OHSU in Oregon, where she also ran the menopause and sexual medicine program. She hosts the program's podcast and gave a TEDx talk called Sleep, Sex, and Menopausal Zest. The program writes to its patients about practical problems like the estradiol patch shortage.
Dr. Schmehil is an OB-GYN at Associated Physicians, a multi-specialty practice in Madison that also has pediatrics, adult medicine and behavioral health. She has practiced there since 2011 and lists herself as a certified menopause provider. Her work covers obstetrics, gynecologic procedures and annual exams. Patients use the MyChart portal.
Balanced Wellness is a small Tulsa office where Jessi Brewer is the only clinician, so she is the one you see at every visit. Her services run past routine primary care and include hormone balance and hormone replacement therapy, weight management, and help with mood problems including PMS. She came to nursing through nutrition, having finished a nutrition degree before her nursing training, and that background shows in how the practice works. Micronutrient testing and food sensitivity testing are part of what she offers, and she keeps an online dispensary of the supplements she recommends. New patients can book a first appointment through the online scheduler linked from her site. Between visits you can send her team a message through the patient portal.
A solo direct primary care practice in New Braunfels where menopause and perimenopause care sits inside general family medicine. The physician holds the Menopause Society Certified Practitioner credential and also sees children and chronic disease. A flat monthly membership covers unlimited visits in person or by video, same and next-day appointments, and direct messaging by text, phone or email. The menopause first visit is an unhurried history, with labs ordered only where they would help, since the practice treats perimenopause as a clinical diagnosis rather than a lab one, and says openly that hormones are not the answer to everything.
Medcare Associates is a five-clinic primary care group in and around San Antonio, and Steffany Mock sees patients at its Sonterra office in the far north of the city. The group was built around walk-in care, and its founder's rule is that sick patients can be seen the same day without an appointment. The staff page says she practises family medicine at Sonterra, and that one sentence is everything the site publishes about her. Nothing on the site mentions menopause, perimenopause or hormone therapy for her or for any of the other twelve providers. The services page covers general primary care, in-house labs and X-rays, and women's health including pap smears.
Dr. Troutman runs a small insurance-free practice in Camp Hill for women in perimenopause and menopause, and many of her patients also want help with midlife weight gain. Care starts with a free 15-minute video meet and greet, then a 60-minute first visit, then a fixed-length program of four or six months with follow-up visits and optional monthly group sessions led by her. She prescribes only FDA-approved estrogen, progesterone and testosterone. She does not use pellets or compounded weight-loss drugs. She has a separate track for women who were told they can't take hormones, such as breast cancer survivors or women with a clotting history. She works as a consultant alongside your primary care doctor rather than replacing one, and you can see her in person or entirely by video.
Dr. Garavente runs a small solo menopause practice with offices in Timonium and Ellicott City, each open one day a week by appointment. She started it in 2018 after going through menopause symptoms herself, and she worked as an orthopedic physical therapist before medical school. She sees women in perimenopause and well beyond it, and says women over 60 are one of her favorite groups to treat. Hormone options include estrogen, progesterone and testosterone as creams, patches, pills or pellets, along with non-hormonal choices and GLP-1 weight care. She does not do well-woman exams, so you will need your own gynecologist for routine screening.
A boutique gynecology practice in Springfield led by a board-certified gynecologist who is a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, serving women across the lifespan with a stated focus on perimenopause, menopause and hormone therapy, plus sexual health, adolescent gynecology, infertility and postpartum care. Patients either join a monthly membership or pay per visit, with check-ins by office visit, video, phone, text or email and in-office procedures including ultrasound, colposcopy, endometrial biopsy, IUD placement and pessary fitting. The practice's patient writing is evidence-focused and cautions about high-dose testosterone, pellets and unregulated compounded products.
