Menopause Society Certified Practitioners in Florida
291 practitioners have an office in Florida, and 197 more can see patients here by telehealth. 306 of them are certified by the Menopause Society, and the most are in Miami, Orlando and Jacksonville.
Midlife Wellness is a small virtual practice that only treats women in perimenopause and menopause, plus those with premature ovarian insufficiency. Stacy is one of its two nurse practitioners and spent more than ten years in intensive care before moving into internal medicine and then reproductive health. Care starts with an hour-long new patient visit, and shorter follow-ups are used to adjust treatment over time. The practice prescribes FDA-approved hormones only, testosterone gel among them, and follows Menopause Society guidelines. It also treats midlife hair loss and offers non-hormonal prescriptions for women who can't or don't want to take hormones. The founders started it after feeling rushed and brushed off at their own doctors' offices.
Carrie Leff is an internist who runs a small membership practice for women in midlife. She combines menopause care with full primary care, so most patients don't need a separate gynecologist for routine exams and pap smears. Members pay a yearly fee that covers an intake, an annual wellness exam and up to 12 more visits a year, in person or by video. She offers hormone therapy and non-hormonal options for hot flashes, sleep and mood, and also treats sexual pain and low libido. She has a particular interest in breast cancer risk assessment and in caring for women after breast cancer. Places are capped, and a first-come waitlist starts once the practice is full.
Dr. Harris is a gynecologist who runs a small concierge-style practice in Newport Beach centered on bioidentical hormones. She is a strong believer in hormone pellets and has used them for more than twenty years, though she also offers other bioidentical options. Care starts with a one-on-one consultation and hormone testing. The practice also runs a weight program built around GLP-1 medication alongside hormone balance. It treats men as well as women and offers aesthetic and PRP procedures, so hormones are one part of a wider anti-aging menu.
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.
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.
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.
Tiffani Hughson is a certified nurse midwife at Maiden Lane Medical, a large multi-specialty practice in lower Manhattan. Her practice profile lists her as a telemedicine provider, so visits with her are virtual for patients in New York. She trained in full-scope obstetrics and gynecology and now focuses on perimenopause, menopause and women's sexual health. She manages hormone therapy alongside routine gynecologic care. The practice offers oral and transdermal hormone therapy, vaginal estrogen and DHEA, and non-hormonal medicines. Visits are booked online through the practice's 24/7 telemedicine scheduler.
Women's Care is a large OB-GYN group and Dr. Austin sees patients at its Southpoint, Baptist South and Ponte Vedra offices around Jacksonville. Her own booking page lists menopause consultations, menopause follow-ups and hormone therapy visits, so a midlife appointment can be booked with her by name rather than with the group in general. The rest of her practice is general obstetrics and gynecology, including minimally invasive and laparoscopic surgery. The group bills insurance, and intake forms go out through a mobile check-in app a few days before the visit. She says her recommendations follow the current research, and she talks the options through before anything is decided. She is a mother of two and has presented her own work on labor induction.
Curate Medical is a virtual-first practice built on the idea that menopause care is primary care, and Dr. Chacko founded it and serves as its medical director. She is currently the only physician at Curate taking new members, so the membership is the way a new patient gets in with her. Members get ongoing primary care with menopause care included, plus secure messaging, phone calls and video visits, and the team arranges labs, imaging and local in-person referrals anywhere in Florida. Three other physicians handle one-off menopause, metabolic and breast cancer survivorship consults for women who keep their own primary care doctor elsewhere. Every patient has a risk and benefit conversation about FDA-approved hormone therapy, and the practice says it avoids compounded medications unless they are truly necessary. Anyone can book a free ten minute call with her first to work out whether Curate fits.
Vero Women's Care is a hybrid concierge practice that Bruce co-founded with Kristy Crawford in January 2023, run by an all-female team covering gynecology, primary care, pelvic floor therapy and nutrition in one office. Members pay a fee for longer visits, same-day or next-day appointments and 24/7 access to a physician by phone, text or email, and the practice still bills insurance for the care itself. Bruce and Crawford are both Menopause Society Certified Practitioners, and the practice names expert menopause care among what membership includes. Bruce trained on the da Vinci robotic surgical system in 2008 and takes on complex gynecologic conditions that would otherwise mean more invasive surgery, and she won the AAGL Minimally Invasive Surgeon of the Year award during her residency at Yale New Haven. She is also a member of the Sexual Medicine Society of North America. The patient panel is kept small, so joining starts with a call or an email rather than online booking.
Dr. Karmin is a gynecologist who started this practice in 2006 after many years in New York. She does a lot of her gynecologic work in the office, including ultrasound at the visit, hysteroscopy, colposcopy and LEEP. For menopause she uses hormone therapy and nonhormonal options, and the practice says it usually recommends FDA approved bioidentical hormones. Vaginal estrogen, low-dose antidepressants for hot flashes and osteoporosis medication are also on the menu. She sees patients from adolescence through menopause and speaks both English and Spanish. She works alongside Dr. Dejean, and new patients can book online.
Dr. Moreno-Jackson is the medical director and only listed physician at a small boutique OB/GYN practice in Kendall. She grew up in Puerto Rico and says she went into medicine because women there were not always listened to. The practice covers gynecology and obstetrics, and she delivers babies at Baptist Hospital of Miami. Menopause and hormone management are listed among the gynecology services alongside pelvic pain, incontinence and heavy or irregular periods. The site is also written in Spanish, and the practice offers same-day and short-notice appointments plus an on-site lab and ultrasound.
WVL Synergy is a concierge direct primary care practice in Naples with three internal medicine physicians. Kakaes is the one whose bio names women's health, and she says she advocates for women at every stage of life. She came to Naples after residency in 2016 and spent about seven years as a hospitalist before this. The practice offers a virtual concierge doctor as well as in-person care, and a prospective patient starts with a Let's Meet inquiry form rather than a booking calendar. The site publishes no fee and says nothing about insurance. It does not describe menopause or hormone care anywhere.
She founded this functional medicine clinic in Largo and is also an emergency medicine physician with more than 18 years in clinical practice. Menopause and perimenopause care sits alongside men's hormone care, weight management and longevity services. New patients start with a short discovery call, then a full lab panel before the first visit with a provider. Women who still have periods are asked to time the blood draw to days 19 to 21 of their cycle. Hormone therapy here uses bioidentical hormones guided by lab work and genomic testing. The practice does not bill insurance, and visits happen in the office or by video.
Dr. Singh is a family physician at BayCare Medical Group's Baywalk primary care office in downtown St Petersburg, where she is one of about ten clinicians. She earned her medical degree at the University of the West Indies in Trinidad and trained in family medicine at IU Health Methodist Hospital. Her BayCare bio still describes her as serving Riverview, and a number of her patients write that they followed her when she moved across the bay to St Pete. Care runs as regular office-based primary care, and patients mention using the portal for questions between visits. Online self-scheduling is open to people she has seen before, while a first-time patient is asked to call the office instead. BayCare publishes nothing about menopause, perimenopause or hormone therapy on her page, and the service list for her office does not mention it either.
Dr. Robertson runs a solo practice focused only on perimenopause, menopause and other midlife concerns. She does not provide routine primary care. Care is a membership she calls a wellness year, built on longer visits and an ongoing relationship so hormone balance and sexual health can be adjusted over time. She says not every woman needs hormone therapy, but every woman deserves a thoughtful conversation about it. Gynecologic exams are done in the office, though Pap smears are only done for patients who have no primary care provider or gynecologist. She opened the practice after her own midlife symptoms were dismissed as just part of getting older.
Optiml is a new practice in Winter Park run by Amber Braithwaite, a nurse practitioner, and it opens in December 2026. It will offer hormone therapy, metabolic care and what it calls healthspan medicine, aimed at people who were told their labs were normal but still don't feel right. Until it opens, the only way in is a waitlist form on its website, and the practice says it will contact people as places open up. Its full website, including prices and details of how care works, is not live yet.
A solo nurse practitioner practice in Tampa combining primary care with midlife hormone care, run by an autonomous nurse practitioner who is a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner. First visits and annual wellness visits run about an hour and follow-ups about half an hour, offered both in the office and by telehealth, with hormone plans guided by symptoms, labs and history. The practice also handles chronic conditions, basic in-house lab testing and peptide therapy.
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.
Dana Johnson is a registered nurse who spent about 20 years in the ICU before founding Qavah Functional Wellness, a telehealth-only practice. She started it after her own Long COVID turned into autoimmune and gut problems and then a hard menopause transition. Hormone therapy is offered to Alabama residents only, while the lab and gut health services also reach a few other southern states. Each hormone plan starts with lab work and a consultation, and bioidentical hormones come as creams, gels, pills, troches or injections. Prescriptions are written by the practice's licensed providers rather than by Dana, who is a nurse. New patients start with an online consultation request, and the team calls back within one business day.
Dr. Dweck is a gynecologist who sees menopause patients at Well by Messer, a multi-specialty metabolic and wellness practice on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. She moved there after 29 years in practice in Westchester County. At the practice she focuses on gynecology, menopause and sexual health, including hormone therapy, painful sex, low libido and vaginal changes after menopause. She also has training in medical sex therapy, which is unusual for a menopause doctor. New patients request an appointment through an online form, and the office calls back within a day to confirm it. Outside the clinic she is chief medical officer of Bonafide, a company that makes non-drug menopause products.
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.
Krystal Algier is a nurse practitioner with a small self-pay practice in Easton that offers hormone and weight care alongside aesthetic skin treatments. Women usually start with a short one-on-one clarity session. If more care makes sense, she moves on to a full hormone evaluation with a history review, lab work and a written plan. She sees patients in person in Easton and by telehealth in Maryland, Delaware and Florida.
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.
