Jenesis Women's Health is a small Hopkinton practice focused on perimenopause and menopause, led by Dr. Braley with a physician assistant co-founder. Dr. Braley is an internist who worked in hospital care and medical education before opening the practice. Care starts with an hour-long first visit, ideally in person, followed by half-hour check-ins in the office or by video for women anywhere in Massachusetts. She prescribes estrogen, progesterone and testosterone when they fit, and favors FDA-approved products such as bioidentical estradiol and micronized progesterone. Heart risk and bone health are checked as part of deciding on hormone therapy.
Susan Baumgaertel spent 25 years in private internal medicine practice in Seattle, stepped away from direct patient care in 2021, and launched myMDadvocate in 2022. She now works as a physician consultant, navigator, coach and advocate rather than as a treating doctor. She will talk through menopausal treatment options and the question of whether to take hormones, go over test results, and help patients deal with their own medical teams, but she does not prescribe or refill medication and says plainly that you still need your own primary care physician. All visits are virtual and sold in 25 minute blocks, and a new patient starts with a free phone call before any paperwork. She also writes MenopauseMenu, a free menopause site of her own, published a book of the same name, and hosts a monthly talk show.
Dr. Tracy is a naturopathic doctor who has focused on perimenopause and menopause for about twenty years. She sees patients only by video. She can prescribe hormone therapy only for women living in California. Care is sold as a six-month program with monthly one-on-one visits and messaging, or a shorter lab-and-plan option for women who want to carry it out on their own. She starts with labs, nutrition, supplements and herbs, and says hormones are not the starting point. When she does prescribe, she uses FDA-regulated bioidentical hormones at the lowest effective dose, prefers patches and creams over pills, and brings up hormone therapy at the second visit when labs are reviewed.
Sabrina Yoder runs Fireweed Functional Medicine in Ketchikan and sees only women and girls. She is a nurse practitioner and nurse-midwife who has worked in women's health since 2008, and she came to this work after a long, unexplained illness of her own following her first child's birth. Care starts with a 90-minute intake, then hour-long follow-ups to go over lab results, paid either per visit or through a six-month membership. Her focus is perimenopause, PCOS, thyroid and menstrual problems, and she uses lab testing, lifestyle changes and supplements alongside hormone therapy when she thinks it fits. She is not a primary care provider, so you need a separate clinician for screenings and acute care.
Pamela Neff is an OB/GYN at THE Health and Wellness Centers, a federally funded community clinic group with five health centers around south Los Angeles that has been seeing patients since 1974. The clinic takes people regardless of ability to pay or immigration status, and its own pages cover gynecology, family planning and prenatal care rather than menopause. Her menopause practice is published through Gennev, a virtual menopause service where she sees California, New Jersey and Pennsylvania patients by video. She names perimenopause, menopause, premature ovarian insufficiency and breast cancer risk or survivorship among what she handles. Before Los Angeles she practiced nearly twenty years in Philadelphia, doing minimally invasive surgery and training OB/GYN residents. She says she listens first to what a patient has already been through with health care, then works out a plan with her.
Dr. Winstrom has practised as an MD in Texas for over thirty years and now runs a functional medicine practice called Partners in Vitality MD. Most care happens by phone or video, and she also sees patients in person on set days at three locations, one of which is the office in her own home on a 100 acre organic farm and grass fed beef ranch. Care runs as a course rather than a single visit, starting with a long health history, then a required blood panel bought through her office, then a second visit where she goes through the results and writes a patient plan. Visits are billed by the time a patient spends with her, so appointments run long and most patients are in treatment for several months. She offers bioidentical hormone therapy for all genders and treats thyroid conditions including Hashimoto's, and she tries to wean patients off medication where a natural alternative works. She no longer does pelvic exams or pap smears, though she will do the rest of a well woman visit, and she rarely prescribes controlled substances.
Brittany Quinn runs this women's health practice alone and sees patients in two Wyoming towns, Alpine and Jackson. Quinn trained in women's health at Case Western Reserve University and spent several years at an obstetrics and gynecology clinic in Idaho Falls before opening here. Care covers annual well woman exams, menopause management and hormone replacement, contraception, and everyday problems like urinary tract infections and incontinence. The clinic is named after Ferry Peak, the mountain above Alpine, and the stated aim is bringing the kind of specialized care usually found in bigger towns to this one. Appointments are booked through an online scheduler at either location, and video visits are offered to established patients for medication checks and problem visits. The practice also publishes a short handout explaining when part of a yearly visit gets billed as medical care rather than preventive.
Dr. West runs a solo gynecology office in Madison and has been in practice for more than twenty years. Her site lists menopause management and testing among her services, though it does not say which hormone treatments she prescribes. She also treats endometriosis, fibroids, ovarian cysts and pelvic pain, and she does her own surgery at nearby hospitals, so a patient who needs an operation stays with the same doctor. She did her OB/GYN residency at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania and is fellowship trained in integrative medicine. Telemedicine is used for things like reviewing results and medication follow-ups, while exams and procedures happen in the office. She also hosts a weekly women's health segment on a local radio station.
Kirsten FitzGerald runs a small functional and integrative medicine practice in Ridgefield that sees patients of all ages, with menopause and perimenopause care as one of its main services. New patients start with a free short discovery call and then a first visit of about two hours, which she strongly prefers to do in person. A follow-up usually comes within a month to go over lab and test results, and later visits can be done by video. She prescribes conventional medicines when needed and also uses diet, lifestyle, herbal and homeopathic remedies. Her other big focus is Lyme and tick-borne illness, where she has specialist training. She charges by the hour with no membership fee.
Lumina is a West Seattle clinic that mixes vascular care, lasers and skin work with a menopause program. Stacy sees menopause patients virtually and starts everyone with a short free phone call before the paid intake, which covers two or three visits, a full history and symptom review, and referrals for labs and diagnostic testing. That intake ends with a hormone therapy plan, and later follow ups by video or phone are included at no extra charge. She has been a labor and delivery nurse at a Washington hospital since 2005 and says her own perimenopause is what pushed her into midlife care. She is a registered nurse rather than a prescriber, and the clinic owner, a nurse practitioner, is the other certified menopause provider on the team. The menopause page spends most of its space arguing that the early reading of the Women's Health Initiative was wrong and that hormone therapy works best started early.
Amy Harvey O'Keeffe is one of six physicians at Capital Health's OB/GYN office in Yardley, and she has cared for women in the Mercer and Bucks County area for more than 30 years. Her own focus is menopausal medicine and women's sexual health, inside a group practice that otherwise covers pregnancy, routine gynecology and gynecologic surgery. She also sees patients at the group's Browns Mills office in New Jersey. Appointments are made by calling the office, and there is a lab draw station in the Yardley suite. She is a Master Level Reiki practitioner and describes her care as a blend of wellness coaching and integrative medicine, with daily meditation part of what she asks of patients. In 2010 she started The GyniGirls, a monthly support group for women diagnosed with gynecologic cancers.
A solo, fully virtual membership practice for midlife women across Texas, run by a physician board certified in family, obesity and lifestyle medicine who is also a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner. The membership covers an hour-long first consultation, seven follow-ups a year, secure messaging between visits, prescription management and lab interpretation, while medication, labs and imaging are billed separately. Hormone therapy is offered but not part of every plan, with non-hormonal options discussed instead. The practice declines to use hormone pellets, citing unpredictable dosing. Care is given in English and Spanish, and the physician describes herself as working alongside a patient's existing doctors rather than replacing them.
Kate Behning runs a solo gynecology practice in downtown Seattle that she opened after leaving a healthcare corporation over its limits on abortion care. She has held Menopause Society certification since 2013 and follows its guidance closely, so she prescribes standard hormone therapy but not compounded hormones or pellets. Visits happen in her office or virtually by video, phone or portal message. She is not a primary care provider and asks patients to keep one for non-gynecologic care and routine screening labs. A longer menopause consultation can be added to an annual exam but is billed as a separate visit. She describes her style as plain explanations with no upselling of trendy hormone treatments.
Greentree is a small gynecology clinic in White River Junction that Teresa opened in 2024 so she could spend more time with each patient. It focuses on perimenopause, menopause and vulvovaginal problems, alongside routine gynecology. She offers menopause hormone therapy and also talks through evidence-based non-hormonal options. Before opening the clinic she spent ten years at Dartmouth Hitchcock, where she saw patients with complex vulvar conditions like lichen sclerosus. You book online through the patient portal, in person or by video if you live in Vermont or New Hampshire. New patient slots are limited and open eight weeks ahead, so you may need to check back.
Dr. Van De Velde is a gynecologist with MyMichigan Gynecology in Midland, part of the MyMichigan Medical Center system. She lists menopause and perimenopause management as one of her clinical interests alongside abnormal bleeding, contraception and fertility evaluation. She is also a minimally invasive and robotic surgeon, so she can handle surgical problems like fibroids or hysterectomy in the same practice if they come up. Visits are in person at the Campus Ridge office, and she is licensed to see Florida patients by telehealth. Her profile says she is welcoming new patients, and current patients can message or book through MyChart.
This is a general OB/GYN practice that also delivers babies and does gynecologic surgery, so menopause care sits alongside the rest of women's health. Dr. Leach is also Medical Director of OB/GYN at John Muir Walnut Creek. The office prescribes FDA approved bioidentical estradiol and progesterone by mouth, on the skin or in the vagina. It prefers these to compounded hormones because blood levels can vary from batch to batch. Marybeth Wakefield, a nurse practitioner who also holds the Menopause Society certification, sees midlife patients in the same office. The practice works with the Cancer Support Community of Walnut Creek to help survivors with symptoms like vaginal dryness, including those who cannot use estrogen.
Dr. Holt runs a small private-pay practice for women, mostly by telehealth with in-person visits in Manhattan. Every new patient starts with a paid assessment that includes a long intake visit, an extended lab panel and a second visit to go over the results. Hormone care for perimenopause and menopause then runs as a three-month program or a monthly membership with a monthly physician visit and portal messaging. She is board certified in preventive medicine and lifestyle medicine and also trained in functional medicine. Her site puts unusual weight on the nervous system, and names breathwork, somatic trauma work and faith as part of care. Her blog describes adjusting estrogen and progesterone slowly and changing the form or timing when a woman reacts badly at first.
Annie Tam founded MEND Counseling and is its clinical director, having grown it from a solo office into a team of fourteen clinicians working across three Dallas locations. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with adults 18 and over, and peri and menopause is one of the four focus areas she lists for herself. The others are performance, motherhood and perfectionism. She is certified in EMDR, and much of her caseload is entrepreneurs, working mothers and other high achievers, which she ties to her own years running businesses and coaching founders. MEND provides talk therapy only, so no hormone prescribing or lab work happens here. New clients start with a 60 minute initial consultation, and the practice asks you to call or email first so it can match you with the right clinician.
Dr. Limosnero runs a small integrative gynecology practice in Carrollton that she opened in 2015 after about 11 years in general OB/GYN practice. She treats perimenopause and menopause with prescription hormone therapy, including bioidentical hormones that can add testosterone or DHEA, alongside herbs, nutrition and mind-body work. New patient visits are long, up to 90 minutes, and go through your history, lifestyle and symptoms before a plan is made. She trained in integrative medicine through the University of Arizona program and has also studied acupuncture and trained as a yoga teacher. For vaginal dryness and bladder leakage after menopause she offers MonaLisa Touch laser treatment as a hormone-free option. For now the office shares space with her husband's dental practice, so patients come in through Suite 100.
Dr. Westgate works in a Community Health Network ob/gyn office in Westfield, north of Indianapolis. She stopped practicing obstetrics in 2020 and now sees only gynecology patients, and she has extra training in cancer prevention and early detection plus a women's genomics counseling certificate from ACOG. The network's menopause page names her as one of two doctors it points women to when menopause symptoms or sexual health problems follow cancer treatment. Menopause care there covers hormone therapy with estradiol, progesterone and testosterone, vaginal estrogen, and non-hormonal medicines for women who cannot or choose not to use hormones. She also still operates, including laparoscopy and vNOTES, so heavy perimenopausal bleeding can be worked up and treated by the same doctor. This is a health system practice, so scheduling and messaging run through MyChart, and visits can be in person or virtual.
A solo women's health nurse practitioner practice in Vancouver seeing patients across Washington and Oregon, with particular depth in perimenopause and menopause, sexual medicine and vulvar dermatology. Care runs on a monthly membership with a three-month minimum. The first visit lasts 90 minutes and can be in person or virtual, later visits run an hour, and you can message her in between. The practice is notably consent-forward about examinations, asking for verbal consent at each step and offering a chaperone, a partial exam or none at all, and does in-office microscopy and vulvar biopsy.
Dr. Latte-Naor is an internist who spent eight years on the integrative medicine service at Memorial Sloan Kettering. Much of her practice is women going through menopause during or after cancer treatment. First visits run about an hour, and she suggests coming to the Upper East Side office for that one, with video visits available for patients in New York, New Jersey or Pennsylvania. Alongside hormone therapy she uses sleep-focused behavioral therapy, mindfulness and hypnosis. She gives frank, evidence-based advice on herbs and supplements, sells none herself, and passes any supplement discount on to patients. You can book a single consultation or ongoing care, and her office sends an intake packet once you schedule.
Hope King runs a small nurse practitioner owned practice in Ormond Beach that combines direct primary care with hormone care for women in perimenopause and menopause. She worked as a nurse from 2002 and later as a nurse practitioner in urgent care, family practice and mental health before opening her own practice. There are no medical assistants on purpose, so patients deal with her directly and can call or text her. Her menopause care leans heavily on metabolic health, pairing hormone therapy with a dietitian-built anti-inflammatory nutrition plan and supplements guided by bloodwork. She is trained in bioidentical hormone therapy and also prescribes non-hormonal options for low libido. Visits are in person or by video, and patients join through a membership.
Dr. Pravdin is an OB-GYN who sees women in perimenopause and menopause. She also treats sexual health concerns such as low desire, painful sex and vaginismus. Visits are in person at a clinic in Redwood City or online for patients who live in California. Treatment can include hormonal and non-hormonal options, supplements, diet and lifestyle changes, and cognitive behavioral therapy. She schedules regular follow-ups and adjusts the plan as needed. She is fluent in Russian and conversant in French and Spanish.
