Dr. Queen trained in emergency medicine and spent about twenty years in Bay Area hospitals before opening her own concierge practice. Menopause care runs as a six or twelve month membership with an evaluation, follow-up visits, secure messaging and an in-office bone density ultrasound scan. She prescribes hormone therapy when it fits and pairs it with functional medicine and nutrition, and two nutritionists work with the practice. GLP-1 weight medication can be part of the plan for women whose metabolism shifted in midlife. The practice does not bill insurance but gives free superbills for out-of-network claims. Visits can be in person in Mill Valley or by video.
Dr. Swing is a board-certified OB/GYN whose practice is built around hormone care for women in perimenopause and menopause. A first-person account on the site describes going through menopause in the mid forties, finding that the regimens taught in residency did not work, and then taking extra training in bioidentical hormone therapy. Hormone patients join an annual cash-pay program, and the practice will only fill hormone prescriptions for women enrolled in it. Testosterone pellets are placed in the office in a procedure that takes ten to twenty minutes, written up in the first person down to how long the paper strips stay on. Routine gynecology runs on a separate track and is billed to insurance. A nurse practitioner joined in 2025 and covers much of the general gynecology.
Dr. Hannon is an OB-GYN who runs this Inner Richmond practice with her father, Dr. Ziyad Hannon, and a nurse practitioner who is also a Menopause Society certified practitioner. The practice describes its care as trauma-informed, and Dr. Hannon is an outspoken advocate for LGBTQ patients, including gender-affirming surgery. For menopause they prescribe patches, gels, pills and vaginal estrogen, with micronized progesterone, and they also offer nonhormonal options such as Veozah. Testosterone and other libido medications are available when low desire is the main concern. Labs are used only when they are clinically needed. Visits are in person, and new patients can request an appointment online or by phone.
Taylor Mahtook is a physician assistant with Our Lady of Lourdes Physician Group in Lafayette, where she sees women for primary care and works in the group's menopause clinic. The clinic calls itself the region's first multi-discipline menopause service and takes patients from age 15 up, with a gynecologist, a nurse practitioner and a dietitian working in the same building. Both hormone and non-hormone treatment for perimenopause and menopause are offered there, labs are drawn on site, and new patients can book with her online. Mahtook also manages the long-running conditions that often sit alongside midlife hormone changes, such as thyroid disease, osteoporosis and high blood pressure. She came to women's health after working in urgent care clinics and an emergency department. She asks patients to write down their questions before a visit, and says a good history and real listening get her most of the way to a diagnosis.
Dr. Kashyap founded Galleria Women's Health and is the only physician in it, and she built the practice around menopause and midlife care in Henderson. Care starts with a long consultation covering symptoms, bleeding pattern, uterus status and risk factors before any treatment is chosen. She prescribes hormone therapy in several forms and will place hormone pellets, but the site is clear that pellets are not the default and that the consultation is spent working out whether another route fits better. She is also a certified functional medicine practitioner, so visits often look at thyroid, gut and metabolic patterns alongside hormones. The practice does no obstetrics, and a new patient is seen in person at the Henderson office before any video follow-up. A nurse practitioner and a nutrition and fitness coach complete the team, and the coach runs the day to day side of the practice's midlife metabolic program.
Mbwidiffu Dibal founded this Newark practice as the menopause arm of her family medicine clinic, Oasis Family Wellness, and she runs a sister hormone clinic out of the same office. Care spans perimenopause to postmenopause and covers hormone testing, hormone and non-hormonal medication, and low-dose vaginal estrogen for genitourinary symptoms. She also handles the midlife risks that sit alongside it, with bone density and cardiometabolic screening and weight management, and she takes referrals from other clinicians for thyroid and adrenal problems. The clinic runs EmpowerRF in office, a radiofrequency and pelvic floor stimulation treatment aimed at vaginal dryness, laxity and urinary leakage. Her hormone training came from two physicians with decades in hormone optimization, and she says she pays attention to how a patient feels day to day rather than only the lab numbers. She has been a nurse practitioner in Delaware since 2012, worked at ChristianaCare and Westside Family Healthcare, and writes about how being Nigerian American shapes her attention to culture and family in a patient's health.
Dr. Morris has practiced gynecology in Ann Arbor for more than thirty years and has spent over two decades working only on perimenopause and menopause. She says she has been going to menopause society meetings since the 1990s, and she has been certified since 2006. Visits cover hormone therapy and non-hormonal treatment, with follow-ups for hormone management and medication adjustments. She also handles routine midlife gynecologic care, including annual exams, Pap tests and bone health screening support. Her own explainer on genitourinary syndrome of menopause walks through vaginal estrogen options and says laser treatment is controversial and not a first-line therapy. The office runs weekday mornings only, she sees patients in Ann Arbor and by video, and the practice is affiliated with Trinity Health Michigan.
Genny Petersen is one of four nurse practitioners at Heart of Illinois OB-GYN, a Bloomington obstetrics and gynecology practice that also has two physicians. She joined the office in 2007, is board certified as a family nurse practitioner, and is the only clinician on the team whose bio names menopause, saying she has an interest in the care of women in the menopausal stage of life. The practice lists menopause among its health and well-being services and says it is experienced in helping women through the transition, but it names no treatment it uses, so what she prescribes is not published. The minimally invasive surgery the group advertises is assigned by name to its two physicians, and the pregnancy prevention page says the doctors handle that, so neither is described as her work. Visits can be done in the office or by video with a doctor or a nurse practitioner, and new patients complete a pre-registration form before a first appointment. She goes by Genny on the practice site and is available for speaking engagements.
Mary Newberry Davis is a certified nurse midwife at MarinHealth OB/GYN in Greenbrae, a MarinHealth Medical Network clinic. She has done midwifery and women's health work in the Bay Area for over twenty years and has been at MarinHealth since 2011. Most of her practice is birth care and gynecological care across the lifespan, and her bio says she also helps midlife patients work through the menopause transition with evidence-based information. She trained at UCSF and is a NARM Informed Professional, so she pays attention to how hard life experiences affect health, and she looks for the cause of a problem rather than treating symptoms alone. Visits happen in person at the Greenbrae office or by video, and the clinic publishes a new-patient registration form and an online appointment request. MarinHealth also runs a separate menopause clinic under another physician, and she is not on that team, so menopause care with her happens inside the regular OB/GYN practice.
West Coast OB/GYN is a group practice with offices in San Diego, Carlsbad and La Mesa, and Dr. French is one of the providers who work only out of the La Mesa office. The group does full obstetric and gynecologic care, and its gynecology list includes menopause and hormone replacement therapy. Her own bio says she follows women from adolescence through childbirth to menopause and beyond, and that she is drawn to minimally invasive surgery. She came to women's health first as a counselor for rape and domestic violence survivors and for women with eating disorders, then decided to go to medical school. New patients download registration and history forms from the site and send them in ahead of the visit. The practice keeps some evening hours and draws blood in the office.
Bluegrass Gynecology and Wellness is a membership practice in Lexington that Dr. Elkinson built for women after fifteen years in general obstetrics and gynecology. Everyone who joins pays a membership fee, and in return gets same day or next day appointments, long visits, and the ability to call or text her and her clinical staff directly. She is a gynecologic surgeon who also handles primary care and sick visits, so a member can bring her a hormone question, a pelvic floor problem and the flu. For midlife patients she offers FDA approved hormonal medications, bioidentical supplements, non hormonal medications and what she calls alternative therapies, and she runs lab work and ultrasound in the office. She also treats urinary leaking, overactive bladder and painful sex from atrophy with in office radiofrequency devices rather than surgery. The cosmetic injectables and skin treatments on the same menu are a separate service run by a nurse injector.
Dr. Praderio runs a solo practice in Corpus Christi that pairs gynecology with a medspa, under the names Modern Gyn and Modern Medspa. For menopause she offers both FDA approved hormone therapy and compounded bioidentical options including pellets, and chooses between them from a woman's symptoms, hormone levels and medical history. She also treats vaginal dryness and mild urinary leakage with in office radiofrequency devices and a platelet rich plasma injection, and runs a weight loss program built on weekly visits, body composition checks and a GLP-1 medication. Her new patient page is unusually blunt about the limits of the practice. She is not currently treating endometriosis, heavy bleeding, PCOS or pelvic pain, she expects every patient to keep her own primary care physician, and she requires a progress note from that physician before an appointment will go ahead. She also says plainly that a request does not guarantee an appointment, because there are few gynecologists left in the area.
Green Valley OBGYN is a Greensboro practice of eight board certified obstetrician gynecologists and has been open for more than seventy years. Dr. Clark's bio puts menopausal management alongside adolescent health and contraceptive care, and says she is available to help patients navigate perimenopause and beyond. She also keeps a full obstetric practice, including high and low risk pregnancies and women who want a vaginal birth after cesarean. The office runs its own surgical suite with anesthesiology, and screening mammograms, ultrasound and lab work are all done in house. The practice page on menopause lists the symptoms it treats and promises individualized management, but it names no medication, so what she prescribes is not published. New patients send an online request rather than booking a named physician.
Boston Obstetrics and Gynecology is a seven physician group in Brookline that handles both obstetrics and general gynecology. Dr. Lafornara is listed among the practice doctors and is the only member of the group whose page states the Menopause Society certification. The professional interests on that page are pregnancy and childbirth, abnormal pap smears and colposcopy, general gynecology and minimally invasive surgery for benign gynecologic conditions, plus menopause and perimenopause. The gynecology page says that both hormonal and non-hormonal treatments are available for perimenopausal symptoms, and it asks patients to raise symptoms at a routine visit or call for an appointment. Menopause is one of the reasons a patient can pick on the practice appointment request form. The doctors share a 24 hour coverage arrangement with ten named physicians and hold hospital staff appointments in Boston.
SPOKEmed is Michelle Middleton's own telemedicine practice, which she founded in 2024 after years in orthopedics and a move into weight and hormone care in 2020. She is the only clinician there, so every consultation and treatment plan is hers, and patients can reach her directly between visits. Care starts with a short exploration call, then lab work and a plan that may mix hormone therapy, weight medication, nutrition and coaching. She prefers FDA-approved bioidentical estrogen, progesterone and testosterone, keeps compounded troches and creams for the cases where nothing commercial fits, and refuses pellets because the dose cannot be adjusted or removed. Advanced testing such as DUTCH hormone panels, stool analysis and genetic reports is available when symptoms are confusing, though she says most women can start hormone therapy on symptoms and history alone. Prescription care runs in Florida and New York, while the coaching side is open to women anywhere in the country.
Carrie Pagliano is a pelvic floor physical therapist, so this is hands-on and movement-based care and she does not prescribe. Her site lists the pelvic floor and bladder changes of perimenopause and menopause, including painful sex, among the things she treats. Visits are in person in Arlington or by video, and she says most plans of care run four to six visits. She uses external ultrasound imaging, fits pessaries, and says an internal exam is never required. Anything outside her scope she refers on to a network of medical providers she has built over 25 years in the DC area. She also teaches clinicians and runs courses and a podcast, but patients can book her directly.
Grapevine Women's Health and Gynecology is a two physician gynecology office in the Orenco Station area of Hillsboro. Rotberg founded it in 2013, after moving to Hillsboro from New England in 2001, and the practice takes patients from adolescence through menopause and beyond. It names pelvic pain, infertility, incontinence and menopause as the problems it takes on, and hormone replacement therapy sits on its services menu next to ablation and minimally invasive surgery. For vaginal dryness and painful sex it offers the MonaLisa Touch laser, usually up to three sessions a few weeks apart with annual touch ups after that. Rotberg trained in minimally invasive techniques during residency, particularly laparoscopic and vaginal hysterectomy, and most procedures happen in the office rather than a hospital. The team also counsels on nutrition and lifestyle changes, and new patients fill in registration forms ahead of time and arrive twenty minutes early.
Women for Women OB/GYN is an all-female Long Island practice of six board certified OB/GYN physicians and one nurse midwife, and it belongs to Northwell Health Physician Partners. Dr. Duncan has been in private practice there since 2000 and is the only clinician in the group who works in integrative and functional medicine. She runs a Personalized Wellness Consultation that the practice puts under her name alone, and the request form for it offers no other provider. That visit is a 60 minute first appointment followed by a 30 minute review two to four weeks later, and she answers patients through the portal between visits. Her management plans combine conventional treatment with nutrition, natural hormones, botanicals and nutraceuticals, and menopause symptoms come first in the list of conditions she handles that way. The group also performs office and hospital gynecologic surgery at Long Island Jewish Medical Center, and the Botox and filler work belongs to its nurse practitioner rather than to her.
Dr. Baron runs her own integrative and functional medicine practice on the Upper East Side, and she sees adult women, men and older adolescents for primary care alongside menopause care. New patients are invited into a secure email portal and fill out an initial health history before the first visit, which is a long history review followed by a physical exam. A gynecological exam, if the patient wants one, usually waits for the second visit. She relies heavily on diagnostic testing and often orders functional medicine panels on top of standard fasting labs, and she sells supplements through her own dispensary. Stress is her other focus, and she thinks it drives much of what she sees, so she teaches patients breathing techniques, meditation and basic yoga and has written a book about it. She is also trained in the Bredesen Protocol and runs memory programs for people with cognitive decline and for prevention.
Dr. Howe is a board certified OB/GYN at a small Newport Beach practice she runs with a second OB/GYN and several physician assistants. The practice covers the full span of gynecology, and perimenopause and menopause care sit alongside hormone testing, osteoporosis and bladder problems. Her particular interest is chronic pelvic pain, which she researched at UCLA and treats both medically and surgically. Before moving to Orange County she chaired an OB/GYN department in Ventura County and built a clinic there that included menopause management. She speaks Spanish. Visits are in the office and billed through insurance, and patients without insurance pay at the time of service.
Dr. Kamel founded The Women's Group of Northwestern in 1989 as Chicago's first all-female obstetrics and gynecology practice, and she practices there now with fourteen other physicians and five nurse practitioners. She is an Associate Professor of Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology at Northwestern's Feinberg School of Medicine, and the group describes itself as affiliated with Northwestern Memorial Hospital and Prentice Women's Hospital. Her own listed interests are hysteroscopy, permanent contraception, osteoporosis, bone densitometry, gynecologic surgery and menopausal health, and she is the only physician in the group whose biography names osteoporosis or menopause expertise. The practice's menopause page says managing menopause is no longer solely about hormones, and describes reviewing symptoms, testing, lifestyle changes and both hormonal and non-hormonal options, with a long second half on finding and treating bone loss. Much of the group's gynecology is done in the office, including endometrial ablation, colposcopy, LEEP, biopsies, ultrasound and in-office hysteroscopy, and the office offers nitrous oxide gas for comfort during procedures. Patients choose their own physician and reach her through a shared appointment desk or an online request form, and the group works from a downtown office and a second one in Northbrook.
Dr. Moore is a family physician at Munson Healthcare's Frankfort Medical Group, the system's family medicine office in Frankfort, on the same Park Avenue site as Paul Oliver Memorial Hospital. She sees patients of every age from newborns to older adults, and menopause care is one of the two interests her Munson profile names. Before medicine she worked in Anchorage, Alaska as a geophysicist reading seismic data, then moved back to Michigan for medical school. She finished family medicine residency in 2025, so she is early in practice. Care runs through a hospital system that bills insurance, so this is ordinary family-medicine office care rather than a separate menopause program. New patients book by calling the office, and once you are established you can book in person or video visits online.
Burgansky is the site chief for obstetrics and gynecology at NewYork-Presbyterian Westchester and sees patients at a Scarsdale office on White Plains Road. This is a general obstetrics and gynecology practice, so menopause sits alongside pregnancy care, contraception and office procedures rather than being a separate clinic. Office gynecology and menopause are the stated clinical interests, and the conditions listed include menopause along with abnormal bleeding, fibroids and pelvic pain. The listed procedures include colposcopy, uterine biopsy, uterine ablation, operative hysteroscopy and IUD placement and removal. Appointments can be booked online through the health system's scheduling tool, and the listing says new patients are being accepted. Burgansky also chairs the department's quality and patient safety committee and works on a state initiative to reduce preventable maternal deaths.
Dr. Khamvongsa is a gynecologist and urogynecologist who runs a multispecialty women's practice in the Medical Arts West Tower in Kendall. He prescribes bioidentical hormone therapy for perimenopause and menopause, and he also treats mood symptoms with non-hormonal medication when that is the main complaint. His urogynecology training means bladder leakage, prolapse and painful sex can be handled in the same office as hormone care. He is a fellow of the International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health and sees many patients for low libido and vaginal dryness. He is a retired Navy commander, and he and his office staff speak Spanish, with French also available from him. New patients request an appointment through a short form on the website.
