86 practitioners have an office in Connecticut, and 85 more can see patients here by telehealth. 117 of them are certified by the Menopause Society, and the most are in Greenwich, New Haven and Stamford.
Minkin is a Yale clinical professor who has been in private practice around New Haven for more than 40 years. She rotates between three Connecticut offices, one day a week in each, in New Haven, Guilford and Essex. Her current practice is general gynecology and women's health with a focus on peri- and postmenopausal quality of life. Since 2008 she has also directed the Sexuality, Intimacy and Menopause clinic in the gynecological oncology division at Smilow Cancer Hospital, so sexual health after cancer treatment is a real part of her work. She no longer does obstetrics or gynecologic surgery and leaves that to the group she practices with, which admits patients to Yale New Haven Hospital. Her website is mostly free education she wrote for patients and younger clinicians, including videos on menopause and on menopause for cancer survivors, and a blog she writes with her mathematician husband that opens with why she left electronic medical recordkeeping.
Carolyn Bernstein is a headache neurologist at the Osher Center for Integrative Health in Chestnut Hill, which is the Brigham's integrative medicine clinic. The Mass General Brigham profile describes a practice built on migraine and headache disorders, backed by a subspecialty certification in headache medicine. The profile lists membership of the North American Menopause Society and names hormonal headache among stated interests, but no page Mass General Brigham publishes describes menopause care or hormone therapy as care delivered here. The clinic's own service list runs to acupuncture, chiropractic care, massage, mindfulness training, health coaching and neurological conditions with headache called out, and names no menopause or hormone care at all. The Brigham's menopause programme sits in a different suite of the same building and is staffed from gynecology and endocrinology. Bernstein wrote The Migraine Brain and teaches neurology residents and Harvard medical students.
