Tanya Marcus is the hormone specialist at the Med Lounge, and her listed office is the Encinitas and Rancho Santa Fe location. The Med Lounge is mainly a medical spa, so hormone care sits alongside Botox, skin and body treatments. Her own bio describes a functional and integrative approach that also takes in peptide therapies and metabolic health. Female hormone care starts with a consult and lab work, and the plan may include progesterone and testosterone. New hormone patients fill out an intake form and book online, and the monthly hormone membership covers telemedicine visits as needed. Telehealth for hormone care is described as available where permitted, while the practice's nationwide telehealth is for weight loss only.
Lindsey Buttweiler founded Clara Women's Health in Alexandria after more than 20 years of nursing, most of it in labor and delivery, mother and baby care and lactation support. She became a women's health nurse practitioner in 2021 and built the clinic around hormone care for perimenopause and menopause, metabolic health and weight management, and the skin and aesthetic treatments she performs herself. Visits are meant to be long, with new patients booked for 60 to 90 minutes, and ongoing care runs on a cash-pay monthly membership that covers unlimited visits, prescription management and secure messaging. She sees patients in the Alexandria office and by video anywhere in Minnesota. Her way into nursing started when her first daughter spent five months in intensive care as a baby and went on to have seven open heart surgeries, which she says taught her how healthcare feels from the patient side. The clinic was still being finished in October 2026 and its website was not yet open to the public.
Nurture for Women is a small membership practice in Columbia that Jessica Ballouli founded for women in midlife. She is a nurse practitioner board certified in both women's health and family medicine, and her work centers on peri and menopause symptoms, sexual health, weight and metabolic health, and PCOS. Care begins with a phone intake and lab orders from the practice nurse, then a long first visit with Jessica once those results are back, followed by a six week check and a three month review. She does not do primary care or general gynecology, so patients need to keep their own family doctor and gynecologist. For the weight and metabolic side she uses a Styku body scanner to track body composition over time. New patients are going on a waitlist at the moment, and the practice asks them to email rather than book online.
Midlife Medicine is Dr. Todd's solo direct care practice in Great Falls, for women in perimenopause and menopause. She spent two decades in pediatrics, including years as an associate professor at Children's National, and left that work in 2025 after her own experience as a patient in midlife. Care starts with a 60 minute consultation, a follow-up eight weeks later is required if you start hormone therapy, and established patients come back once a year after that. Between visits they message her directly through the patient portal. She uses FDA-approved hormones such as estradiol and progesterone, and avoids pellets and compounded products unless there is a medical reason. She also asks patients to keep their own primary care doctor and OB-GYN for routine screening and urgent problems, because this is a consultative menopause practice rather than a replacement for either.
Dr Busch opened Seattle Menopause Medicine in 2023 and works out of the Green Lake clinic in Seattle, seeing patients there and by video anywhere in Washington. She treats perimenopause and menopause with body identical estrogen, progesterone and testosterone, partners with a compounding pharmacy when one is needed, and does not recommend pellet implants of any kind. Her care runs on a Health at Every Size and trauma informed model, so a visit is built around symptoms and diagnosis rather than size. That comes out of a career spent first in community health, then in transgender care, and most recently in the medical management of eating disorders. The practice is not a primary care clinic, and she expects you to keep your own doctor for anything outside women's health. She is moving her own patients onto a concierge membership, so a new patient starts with a one time consult and then enrolls for ongoing care.
Alex Suarez runs Care By Alex as a solo practice out of Sugar Land, with virtual visits and in person visits both by appointment. New patients choose one of two starting points, a single wellness consultation or a longer deep dive that bundles an intake, a foundational lab panel and a separate visit to go through the results. She prescribes hormone replacement therapy, testosterone and GLP-1 weight medication when she judges them appropriate, alongside supplement and lifestyle guidance. Thyroid care is a real part of the practice, and she looks past a single TSH value at free T3, free T4, reverse T3 and antibodies. Ongoing hormone treatment is currently delivered through Juvan MD, a Houston wellness practice where she also sees patients, so the independent Care By Alex route is mainly consultations. She says she started the practice after struggling with her own hormones and weight and being told her labs looked normal.
Zuli Direct Care is a two physician direct primary care practice in Mishawaka that serves South Bend and the surrounding area. Members pay a monthly fee that covers unlimited visits, and they can reach their own doctor by phone, text or email. Dr. Bajuyo is a family physician who is also certified by the Menopause Society, and the practice lists menopause, perimenopause and other hormonal concerns among the things it treats. The practice writes that most physicians were never taught about menopause and hormone therapy, and it points to both of its doctors being trained in it. Visits happen in the office or by video or phone, and labs and many common medications are handled in house. Dr. Bajuyo's patient panel is full, so a new patient joins her wait list or enrolls with the other physician.
Christina Saldanha founded Camel City Women's Wellness in 2022 after leaving traditional medicine, where she worked first in gynecologic oncology and then in family medicine. The practice runs as a direct primary care membership and asks for a six month commitment. Appointments run 30 to 90 minutes, patients message her between visits through a secure portal, and new patients start with a consultation that carries no obligation to join. Her menopause care layers lifestyle, supplements, hormone therapy and non-hormonal prescriptions, and she says she enjoys the cases other clinicians turn away, including women at high risk for breast cancer and survivors who were told they could not take hormones. She first learned menopause care from her cancer patients, which is why survivorship is a named part of the practice. She is also an AASECT certified sexuality counselor, and she sees women for vulvar pain, painful sex and sexual function alongside midlife hormone care.
Lotus Center for Women is a Chattanooga practice run by women nurse practitioners that focuses on women over 40. Lauren Barlew owns the practice. The team treats perimenopause and menopause along with sexual health problems like low desire, painful sex, vulvodynia and interstitial cystitis. Hormone therapy is offered, and there are non-hormonal options for women who can't or don't want to take hormones. Well-woman exams are only for patients already being seen for midlife care, never at the first visit. Lauren herself currently sees only established patients, and new patients are booked with the other nurse practitioners.
Lacey Howard runs Evolve Women's Health as a solo telemedicine practice for perimenopause and menopause, and she is the only clinician on the booking calendar. Care happens by video with patients in Colorado and Oklahoma, and there is no office for patients to visit. The first visit is a full hour spent on a patient's history and symptoms before any plan is written, and follow-ups are half that length. Her own answers on the site name hormone replacement therapy, non-hormonal medication and lifestyle change as the routes she works with. She says she started the practice so appointments would not be rushed or cut short. She lives in Longmont with her husband and their two daughters, and spends her time off gardening, hiking and fishing.
Maureen Luthardt runs Manage My Menopause on her own as a telehealth practice, and a patient has to be physically in Maryland when her visit takes place. She came to menopause care through years of nursing women with cancer who were pushed into menopause early by their treatment, and she writes that she felt for them but was not then in a position to help. Her hot flash page names FDA approved estrogen with progesterone as the main treatment, with low dose SSRIs and Veozah for women who want something hormone free. Bone health and breast cancer risk assessments are bookable as visits of their own, separate from a general menopause visit. She keeps two short clinic windows a week, on Thursday and Saturday afternoons, and everything is booked through her own online calendar.
Amy Burgess is a certified nurse midwife at Lone Tree OB/GYN and Midwives, an obstetrics and gynecology practice with offices in Lone Tree and Castle Rock. Her own bio places her at the Castle Rock office, and she is one of only three providers the practice names as performing hormone pellet therapy, which it does only at the Lone Tree office. The practice uses Biote pellets and no other brand, and it starts hormone care with a consultation and a full hormone panel before deciding whether someone is a candidate. She came to midwifery after more than a decade as a labor and delivery nurse, and her bio describes a holistic, evidence based approach built on informed consent. She also encourages balanced nutrition, regular exercise and stress management as part of her care. The practice runs a separate aesthetics department offering radiofrequency treatments for vaginal dryness and painful sex, but it does not say which providers perform them.
FemGevity is a virtual women's health service that works alongside a patient's own doctor, and Dr. Abrahams is its menopause medical advisor. He sees patients himself by video, starting with a 45 minute consult about symptoms and hormone levels. Care starts with testing, usually a hormone panel of more than 100 biomarkers, with gut, micronutrient or genomic panels added when they are useful. Treatment can run from standard prescriptions to custom bioidentical compounds, and he describes his approach as conventional medicine combined with complementary care. He is a Harvard-trained gynecologist who also treats endometriosis, PMS and fibroids, and he still works part time for the Department of Veterans Affairs in New York and at Hackensack University Hospital in New Jersey. FemGevity's main menopause program runs through partner doctors' offices, where the blood draw is done, so it helps to have a doctor of your own.
Vida Family Medicine is a small direct-care practice in Sugar Land, and Dr. Kumar is the internist there who handles midlife and menopause care. Her perimenopause evaluation runs over two visits, a 60 to 90 minute history and physical with labs ordered, then a results review where she sets a plan that can mix hormone and non-hormone treatment. She wants the first visit in person because she does a physical assessment including a pelvic exam, and after that visits can be by video, with messaging in between through the practice's Spruce app. She will also come to your home for a new patient visit in some Houston neighborhoods for an extra fee. She came to this from hospital and ICU work and primary care at the VA, and she says plainly that she makes no money from selling medications or supplements, so she sticks to proven treatments and steers people away from quick fixes sold by non-experts. She asks patients to plan on six months to a year of working together, and the practice cannot take anyone eligible for Medicare or Medicaid.
Dr. Robinson is an OB/GYN who began practising integrative and functional medicine in 2016 and later gave that work its own practice. She says plainly that Dearborn OB/Gyn is a separate business from this practice, and that its staff and billers cannot answer questions about it. Visits are long by design, and patients pick a thirty, sixty or ninety minute appointment when they book. Her hormone care starts with an evaluation, and she presents bioidentical hormone replacement and supplements as two options she helps a patient choose between. Much of the rest is root cause testing through outside laboratories, with stool, mold, food sensitivity, neurotransmitter and genomic panels, and she asks patients to read those laboratories' own websites first. She is board certified in obesity medicine too, so weight and GLP1 medication sit in the same visit as perimenopause and menopause.
Dr. Kemnec is a naturopathic doctor at a group integrative practice in Palo Alto, and she splits her week between in person visits on Mondays and video visits on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. She took a science degree at the US Naval Academy before her naturopathic doctorate at Bastyr, and she now works across integrative pediatrics and women's health, so some families see her for the children and the mother both. For midlife women she covers perimenopause, menopause, menstrual changes and bioidentical hormone therapy when it fits, usually alongside nutrition, botanical medicine and targeted supplements. A new patient visit runs 60 minutes, and she spends a further hour beforehand reading records, questionnaires and recent labs that the patient uploads in advance. Intake forms must be finished four business days ahead or the appointment is rescheduled. The practice publishes a page matching hormone patients to one of six providers, and she is named on it for perimenopause and menopause.
Dr. Sungurlu is a gynecologist who serves as a woman's main doctor, covering primary care and gynecology in one office in San Luis Obispo. The practice runs as an MDVIP concierge membership with a small patient panel, same or next-day appointments, and phone access to her after hours and on weekends. Membership includes a yearly women's health workup with heart risk testing, bone health and hormone testing, and screening for depression and anxiety. She puts a lot of weight on prevention and talks with patients about sleep, exercise, hormonal health and cutting back medications where it is safe. You see her at every visit rather than a nurse practitioner or physician assistant. She has practiced in San Luis Obispo for over a decade and offers telehealth visits when you can't come in.
Kate Dwyer is a registered dietitian with a doctorate in clinical nutrition who runs an online nutrition counseling practice. She works with women on perimenopause and menopause, fertility and pregnancy, and PCOS. She does not prescribe hormone therapy.
Jennifer Nelson is one of more than twenty primary care providers at Herself Health, a Minnesota group built for women in midlife and later life. She sees patients at the Crystal clinic and gives her focus as women's health and the care of older adults. For women under 65 the practice runs on a paid membership that buys longer visits and support for menopause and perimenopause, including help with hot flashes, sleep and mood. Women on Medicare get the same care without the membership fee. First visits are a full hour, and virtual visits are available for new and returning patients. Nelson chose nursing because of a nurse practitioner she saw when she was young, and her page says she wants patients in a calm setting where they feel seen and free of judgment.
Jennifer Rissman is a naturopathic doctor at Marin Natural Medicine Clinic, a clinic that pairs naturopathic doctors with Chinese medicine. She worked as a corporate attorney before changing careers into medicine. Hormone therapy for perimenopause and menopause is one of her main areas, along with sexual function concerns, painful or irregular periods, metabolic health and digestive problems. The first visit runs 60 to 90 minutes and includes a full history, a physical exam and functional lab testing. Return visits start every one to three months and space out as things settle. The clinic is out of network with every insurer, so you pay at the visit and can send the invoice to your own plan.
Heather Newman is a family nurse practitioner who handles hormone care at Revivall Holistic Health, a functional medicine practice in Celina that also sees patients by video anywhere in Texas. Before the first visit you finish intake forms and a lab panel, so the hour goes to walking through your results and building a plan. She prescribes bioidentical hormones as patches, creams, capsules or injections, and the practice says most women end up on compounded progesterone or testosterone. Pellets are a big part of the practice, which was the first EvexiPEL pellet provider in the Prosper and Celina area. She checks hormones with blood tests and explains on the site why she doesn't rely on urine or saliva testing. There is no membership, and patients pay per visit with follow-ups usually every three to six months.
Kate Willis is the nurse practitioner at Hormone Wellness MD, a two-clinician functional medicine practice with offices in Raleigh and in Birmingham, Alabama. She sees North Carolina patients by video or phone only, while Alabama patients come in for the first visit and at least once a year after that. She began as a nurse practitioner in gynecologic oncology in 2009 and moved into functional medicine after her own digestive trouble, fatigue and insomnia sent her looking for answers. The practice prescribes bioidentical hormones, using regular pharmacies where an FDA-approved version exists and compounding pharmacies for testosterone, and it refuses hormone pellets because they often overdose patients and cannot be reversed. Kate performs no physical exams, so patients keep their own gynecologist or primary doctor for annual breast and pelvic checks. The practice will not take patients who are pregnant, trying to conceive, or currently smoking or vaping, and it records visits with an AI scribe that patients may decline.
Dr. Maiella runs a naturopathic clinic in Brattleboro, and much of her work is Lyme disease, tick-borne illness and complex chronic disease. For perimenopause and menopause she prescribes bioidentical estrogen, progesterone and testosterone after screening each patient's personal and family history. She writes that for perimenopausal women she generally prefers bioidentical hormones over birth control pills because the dose can be adjusted as the body changes. Hormones are never the only tool, and she says her women's clinic is not an anti-aging practice built on high-dose hormones. First visits run 60 to 75 minutes, and she also keeps bees and offers bee venom therapy.
Wellness for Women is a gynecology practice in Kennebunk that Dr. Dries owns, and she sees patients alongside a second clinician, Jamie Osgood Wendt, DNP. Her menopause page says she provides individualized care for hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, difficulty sleeping, vaginal dryness, pain with sex and weight gain, and it names her Menopause Society practitioner certification. The site never mentions hormone therapy or any named medication, so what she prescribes is not published anywhere a reader can see it. For vaginal dryness and painful intercourse she offers FemiLift, a CO2 laser she invites patients to discuss with her in a complimentary consultation. Bladder trouble has its own section of the site, with an Emsella chair offered for leaking, and she uses osteopathic manipulation for pelvic and vaginal pain. New patients cannot get in for routine gynecology at the moment, but the practice is still taking menopause consults from women whose primary care doctor refers them.
