519 practitioners have an office in California, and 126 more can see patients here by telehealth. 386 of them are certified by the Menopause Society, and the most are in San Francisco, Newport Beach and San Diego.
Dr. Tunson runs a virtual longevity medicine practice and spent about 14 years as an emergency physician before starting it. Women who want to focus only on hormones can buy a hormone package with labs, two hour-long visits and prescription management when it's indicated, or book a single hormone consultation. She also offers a test that estimates ovarian age and when menopause is likely to arrive. Her wider program is a multi-year plan built on extensive labs, genetics and imaging, and it is meant to sit alongside your regular primary care doctor rather than replace it. The practice is cash only and has opted out of Medicare, though Medicare patients are welcome to pay privately.
Jackie Stone, MD sees women entirely by telehealth, in a practice she runs alone. She is board certified in obstetrics and gynecology and in obesity medicine, and treats perimenopause, menopause and primary ovarian insufficiency alongside PCOS, genitourinary symptoms, sexual wellness, and skin and hair changes. First visits run a full hour and cover past records, labs and a treatment plan. Ongoing care is by monthly membership or visit by visit, with direct messaging for members.
CaliberMD is Dr. Belardo's own virtual practice for women in midlife, and she treats menopause symptoms and weight together instead of in separate appointments. She is certified in both obesity medicine and menopause care, and she writes openly about her own perimenopause and weight changes. Care runs as a six-month membership that starts with a 60-minute first visit and a nutrition planning session, then moves to monthly video follow-ups with portal messaging in between. She prescribes menopausal hormone therapy when it fits and also works with women who would rather not take medication. The practice does not do primary care, so you need to keep your own primary care doctor. A free Meet and Greet call is available before you sign up.
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.
Kristen Loose is the menopause specialist at Dr. Gina Mantor's medical spa and weight clinic in Westerville, where the rest of the practice focuses on aesthetics and weight loss. She treats perimenopause and menopause with standard hormone therapy, and offers non-hormonal prescriptions and lifestyle advice to women who can't or would rather not take hormones. The first consultation is free and happens by video. After that she sees patients in the office on Wednesdays and Saturdays or by appointment. She follows Menopause Society guidance closely and writes on the clinic's site that soy and black cohosh don't hold up for hot flashes.
Dr. Paul sees patients by video through The Menopause Clinic, a menopause service run with OB-GYN Associates in Reno. The clinic only sees established patients of the group, and you have to stay current with one of its in-office providers to keep your place. So a new patient first books a regular gynecology visit and then gets referred. She spent 17 years in obstetrics and another 10 in full-time gynecology before stepping back to focus on perimenopause and menopause. The clinic uses FDA-approved hormone therapy in pill, patch and vaginal forms alongside non-hormonal options, and it also sees breast cancer survivors.
Dr. Kroll is a board certified OB/GYN who runs a concierge practice in Newport Beach with her husband, an internist. She was the first OB/GYN in Orange County to go concierge. She prescribes estrogen, progesterone and testosterone in many forms, including FDA approved, compounded and pellet options, as well as non-hormonal treatments. Menopause visits also cover screening for osteoporosis, heart disease and muscle loss. New patients can book a single consultation or join for a year, which adds longer visits and a 24 hour line to the doctor. She has been through menopause herself and says that shapes how she talks with patients.
Shook is a registered dietitian nutritionist at Gennev, a menopause clinic that works entirely by video. This is nutrition and exercise work rather than prescribing, and the clinic's doctors are the ones who handle medication. Gennev's dietitians cover food, movement, sleep and supplements, and they share notes with the gynaecologist seeing the same patient. His stated focus is weight management and body composition, with cardiometabolic health and resistance training to preserve muscle, and he has published research on resistance training and women's health. For general menopause care a doctor refers you to the dietitian, but the weight management track lets you self-refer and start with the dietitian intake. A typical course of care runs every two to three weeks for at least three months, with unlimited messaging between visits.
This is talk therapy with an associate marriage and family therapist at a group counselling practice. She does not prescribe, and her page does not mention hormone treatment. Her page says she supports women and couples through midlife, naming menopause alongside changes in sex, intimacy and desire, anxiety, and strain in relationships. She also treats long-term insomnia with CBT-I, a talk-based method that works without medication. She splits her week between therapy and work as a population health research scientist at UC Davis. Sessions are in person in Midtown Sacramento or by video, and a short consultation can be booked on her own online calendar.
Therapy for Midlife is Dr. Rashkis's solo virtual practice, and every session runs over video. She works with women moving through perimenopause and menopause, and she also sees men in midlife and couples. Care is talk therapy only, and the FAQ says the practice does not prescribe medication, though she will discuss a referral to a prescribing physician and can speak with your own doctor if you give written permission. For menopause she uses cognitive behavioral therapy for the distress that comes with hot flashes and CBT for insomnia for sleep trouble, alongside acceptance and commitment therapy and emotionally focused therapy. Sessions are 50 minutes, usually weekly at first and then spaced further apart, and she says most clients need five to fifteen of them. She is a lifelong competitive athlete who says she went through her own midlife upheaval, which is what led her to start the practice.
Tamara De Angelis offers talk therapy by video for women in perimenopause and menopause. She is a licensed clinical social worker and does not prescribe, so hormone therapy and other medical treatment come from a woman's own doctor. This is her own solo practice and the main service is one-to-one therapy, with a weekly virtual therapy group as a second option. She works from cognitive behavioural therapy and a menopause-specific approach called EMBERS, and early sessions include menopause symptom questionnaires. She went through a hard menopause herself after several specialists missed it, and she says she will consult with a woman's other health providers. Care starts with a free 15-minute video call.
Framework Health is a small concierge primary care practice, and menopause care is part of the general membership rather than a separate program. Devan sees patients alongside Dr. Meserve, and both are Menopause Society certified. Her style leans integrative, with nutrition, sleep, exercise and supplements next to medication, and she tries to keep prescriptions to a minimum where she can. Hormone therapy uses bioidentical estrogen and progesterone, and thyroid support is part of it. Visits happen in the Fashion Island office or by video. New patients can start with a free 15 minute call or a meet and greet with Devan.
Olea Women's Health is a solo telehealth practice founded by Agnes Simone, DO, a board-certified psychiatrist, for women in California. She combines psychiatric care with menopausal hormone therapy, prescribing estrogen, progesterone and testosterone where indicated, and treats the mood, anxiety, sleep and cognitive symptoms that arrive with midlife. She works alongside a patient's own OB-GYN or primary care doctor, and does not perform vaginal exams or procedures.
A solo membership telehealth practice for patients in California and Nevada, and she limits her work to three areas, which are perimenopause and menopause hormonal health, medical weight management, and lifestyle medicine. It states plainly that it does not replace primary, urgent or emergency care. Visits begin with a 60-minute evaluation followed by ongoing follow-up and direct access to the physician between appointments, with labs ordered to outside facilities and billed separately. Members in one Northern California city who have had at least three telehealth visits can buy a 90-minute home visit.
Dr. Correa is an internist who runs a small membership primary care practice in Newport Beach, capped at about 100 patients. Menopause care is part of her ongoing primary care rather than a separate program, and she is also board certified in obesity medicine and has prescribed GLP-1 medicines since 2018. Before starting her own practice in 2023 she helped build the midlife women's health program at Hoag. Visits usually run 30 to 60 minutes, members reach her directly, and she will visit patients admitted to Hoag hospitals. The practice takes new members only about half of each year, so a new patient may have to wait for the next opening. People who are not members can book a single long consult with a follow-up by video or in person.
A two-doctor naturopathic concierge practice with a Beverly Hills office, working virtually or in person and treating perimenopausal and menopausal women alongside gastrointestinal, longevity and body composition patients. Care is an ongoing membership. It starts with an hour-long intake and custom lab work, then a follow-up where the plan is built, and you can message her directly between visits. The menopausal hormone therapy program is ongoing care bundling prescriptions, follow-ups and repeat hormone labs. The founder is also a certified trainer and nutrition graduate who writes patients' strength, cardio and diet programming as part of the membership.
This is one-on-one health and wellness coaching by video, not medical care. Joan Battelle is a coach and does not prescribe, and her site describes the work as education and coaching rather than psychotherapy. Sessions cover menopause symptoms and sleep alongside the other things arriving in midlife, such as caring for aging parents, grown children, grief and the question of who you are now. She taught college psychology for twenty years and says she coaches from her own experience of this stage. New clients start with a free introduction call arranged through the contact form. She also has a self-paced course on menopause and caregiving that currently has a waitlist.
Shannon Navarro runs a solo therapy practice in Mill Valley and also sees clients online anywhere in California. She works with individuals and couples on trauma, grief, anxiety, burnout and relationship problems. Her training started at an addiction program in Marin and then a hospice, where she worked as a bereavement counselor with both children and adults. She is certified in EMDR and has advanced training in Emotionally Focused therapy for couples. She lists women's health among her areas of training and belongs to The Menopause Society, but the site describes talk therapy only and no hormone or medical treatment.
Zeising is a licensed clinical psychologist and a certified sex therapist, and she has done this work for more than twenty years. Everything runs online over Zoom now, with no in person sessions, and she sees clients in California, Florida, Idaho and Vermont. Her perimenopause and menopause page is about desire, identity and the strain the transition puts on a relationship, and she says plainly that symptom management belongs to a woman's own gynecologist while she works the layer underneath. She prescribes nothing and refers out, working alongside gynecologists, urologists and pelvic floor physical therapists when the physical side needs attention. The named approaches she integrates include cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, internal family systems and psychodynamic psychotherapy. She is a cancer survivor herself, and she says that experience shaped how she sits with people facing uncertainty.
Dr. Otteno is an OB-GYN whose practice is mostly cosmetic and restorative gynecology, and hormone therapy is one part of it. She trained in female genital cosmetic surgery with Dr. Michael Goodman. For menopause care she starts with an hour-long in-person hormone consult, then writes a plan that can use pills, patches, gels or creams. Bioidentical hormones are one of the options she discusses. Regular follow-up visits are used to check how treatment is going and adjust the dose. Women who are not good candidates for hormones get other options and lifestyle advice instead.
John Robinson is a naturopathic doctor who co-founded The Hormone Zone in Scottsdale, and the practice treats women through perimenopause and menopause alongside men's hormone care. Hormones are given as pellets, creams, patches, pills or injections, and the pellets are compounded so the dose and mix can be set for each patient. Getting started means a short phone call with a member of the medical team first, who answers questions and books the office visit. The first visit adds in house testing such as body composition, resting metabolic rate, a thyroid reflex reading and an EKG, and you leave with a written plan that gets revised at follow ups. Robinson came into medicine through massage therapy and Chinese medicine, co-founded a herbal medicine and acupuncture school in Phoenix, and wrote a book about thyroid care. For bone loss after menopause the practice uses a radiation free ultrasound bone scan through a partner rather than a standard DEXA, along with blood markers of bone turnover.
BreAnne Huss is the only provider in the women's health service at North Idaho Dermatology, a skin, plastic surgery and spa group in Coeur d'Alene. She started as a labor and delivery nurse in 2003 and later taught in Georgetown's nurse midwife program. Her focus is perimenopause, menopause and the care of women over 50, and she has hormone therapy training through the Heather Hirsch Academy. The service also does annual gynecology exams, birth control, PCOS and lichen sclerosus care, and same-day visits for vaginitis. The group's online scheduler did not list her, so booking with her likely means calling the office.
A physician-founded med spa and wellness practice in Steamboat Springs treating women and men, where hormone care means bioidentical pellet therapy alongside aesthetics, intravenous therapy, medical weight loss and regenerative treatments. Hormone care runs as an in-office pathway. It starts with an evaluation and history, then a blood panel and a plan, then pellet insertion, and ends with repeat labs and a symptom review. Estrogen and testosterone pellets are both named, and candidates are described as women in perimenopause or menopause and men with low testosterone. Intimate health symptoms are addressed with in-office devices and platelet-rich plasma rather than prescription vaginal therapy.
Dr. Hertel runs a virtual-only practice focused on perimenopause, menopause and midlife care, with every visit held inside a secure patient portal. She is a family physician going through the menopause transition herself, and says that experience is what drew her to this work. She prescribes FDA-approved hormone therapy sent to your local pharmacy and does not use estrogen or testosterone pellets. The practice also offers medication-supported weight care and help with low libido and painful sex. It does not do Pap smears, pelvic exams or primary care, so you keep your own doctor and gynecologist for screenings. New patients start with a free 15-minute discovery call, and people outside her licensed states can book an educational visit that ends with a written plan but no prescriptions.
