179 practitioners have an office in Massachusetts, and 66 more can see patients here by telehealth. 166 of them are certified by the Menopause Society, and the most are in Boston, Chestnut Hill and Worcester.
Dr. Robinson works at a Beth Israel Lahey Health primary care office in Waltham that takes patients of all ages. She leads the practice's menopause group visits, a monthly evening session you can attend in Waltham or join online instead. The sessions go through what the evidence says about menopause and cover both hormonal and non-hormonal treatment options, plus nutrition and exercise. You sign up for one by contacting the practice nurse rather than booking online. Because this is a general primary care office, she also looks after the rest of a patient's health, including long-term conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure.
Robyn Kievit is a nurse practitioner and dietitian who treats women in perimenopause and menopause with FDA-approved hormone therapy and psychiatric medication. Her particular focus is women who have or have had an eating disorder, disordered eating or body image struggles, for whom midlife hormone changes can be especially unsettling. She says she was the first dietitian to become a nurse practitioner, so she looks at medication and food together. She works closely with a patient's therapist, other doctors and treatment center. Most visits are by video, with offices in Boston's Back Bay and West Concord and seasonal home visits on Martha's Vineyard.
Jenesis Women's Health is a small Hopkinton practice focused on perimenopause and menopause, led by Dr. Braley with a physician assistant co-founder. Dr. Braley is an internist who worked in hospital care and medical education before opening the practice. Care starts with an hour-long first visit, ideally in person, followed by half-hour check-ins in the office or by video for women anywhere in Massachusetts. She prescribes estrogen, progesterone and testosterone when they fit, and favors FDA-approved products such as bioidentical estradiol and micronized progesterone. Heart risk and bone health are checked as part of deciding on hormone therapy.
A solo women's health nurse practitioner practice in Acton serving women through perimenopause and after menopause, plus weight management and postpartum care, available to any Massachusetts resident by telemedicine. Care starts with a paid 60-minute intake covering health history and targeted labs drawn locally, after which the patient keeps a written care roadmap whether or not they continue. Ongoing care is structured as three to six month programs at a fixed rate rather than one-off visits, with a lower-rate maintenance phase afterwards.
Allie Theiss is a menopause coach, not a licensed clinician, and she does not prescribe. The main service is a private three or six month coaching program on her own six-part framework, covering nutrition, supplements, flower essences, sleep and stress, intimacy and energy. Smaller options are a one-off audit with a recorded video review, and single paid sessions by Zoom, phone or in person in Akron. She writes that hormone therapy was not an option in her own menopause, and the program's answer to hormonal symptoms is supplements, flower essences and lifestyle change rather than medical treatment. When checked, the online calendars for the paid sessions showed no open times and were not taking payment, so the audit and the coaching program were the open ways to start.
Dr. Carol runs a small concierge practice for women in perimenopause and menopause, and she is going through midlife herself. She spent about 20 years as an emergency physician before turning to menopause care. Care starts with a free 30-minute video call, then a package of two long visits, each 60 to 90 minutes, with messaging between and after them. Visits can be at her Manhattan office, by video, or at your home or workplace. The visits look at symptom treatment along with bone, heart and breast cancer risk. She does not replace your own doctors, so you still need a primary care doctor and a gynecologist for exams and mammograms.
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.
Dr. Tracy is a naturopathic doctor who has focused on perimenopause and menopause for about twenty years. She sees patients only by video. She can prescribe hormone therapy only for women living in California. Care is sold as a six-month program with monthly one-on-one visits and messaging, or a shorter lab-and-plan option for women who want to carry it out on their own. She starts with labs, nutrition, supplements and herbs, and says hormones are not the starting point. When she does prescribe, she uses FDA-regulated bioidentical hormones at the lowest effective dose, prefers patches and creams over pills, and brings up hormone therapy at the second visit when labs are reviewed.
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.
Mia Elder is a certified nutritionist whose practice works only with women in perimenopause, menopause and postmenopause, including women with premature ovarian insufficiency, surgical menopause, and women who are on hormone therapy or cannot take it. She prescribes nothing and does not manage hormone therapy, so the care here is nutrition counseling alongside whatever a woman's own prescriber is doing. Care runs either as a single ninety minute midlife check-up or as a six session program that opens with a full intake and then meets every few weeks, with message access and research done between sessions. She was diagnosed with premature ovarian insufficiency at 39 after five years of being told nothing was wrong, and she built the practice around what she wishes she had been given. She spent seven years in metabolic health at Dexcom and reads continuous glucose monitor data, and she says plainly that she will not hand anyone a list of forbidden foods. California patients need a physician referral before she can see them.
Dr. Roca is an OB/GYN at Atrius Health, a large multispecialty group, and sees patients at its Davis Square office in Somerville and in Medford. He lists perimenopause and menopause care among his clinical interests, along with pregnancy care, fibroids and minimally invasive gynecologic surgery. Atrius OB/GYNs manage menopause symptoms and talk through menopausal hormone therapy. Harder cases can be referred to the group's Menopause Consultation Service, which is mostly virtual. Atrius says some specialty care may be limited to patients who have an Atrius primary care provider, so setting one up first can help. He speaks English, Spanish and French.
Dr. Fleming runs a small gynecology office in Wellesley with one nurse practitioner, and menopause care is a central part of the practice. She prescribes estrogen, with progesterone for women who still have a uterus, and uses non-hormonal prescriptions for hot flashes when hormones are not a good fit. For vaginal dryness and painful sex she also offers the Juliet vaginal laser in the office, including for women with a history of breast cancer. Her site is frank about supplements and says she does not recommend black cohosh. Visits are in person or by video, and new patients booking a menopause consult online are currently scheduled with her nurse practitioner. She came to medicine after a first career as a financial analyst.
Dr. Boutwell runs a small independent practice in Lexington for women over 40, combining internal medicine, lifestyle medicine and menopause care. Instead of a monthly fee you buy a block of her time, and emails, record reviews and care coordination all count toward it along with visits. Care starts with a long annual assessment and then moves to quarterly check-ins with one-month and three-month action plans. She can be your main doctor or work alongside a primary care doctor you want to keep. She spent more than 20 years as a hospital physician at MGH and Newton-Wellesley and can guide you through an ER visit or hospital stay. She also runs a separate ten-month Healthspan Program open to women outside Massachusetts, and new patients start with a short video meet and greet.
Sapphire is a small midlife practice that Laura Brown founded and now runs with a second nurse practitioner. First visits are booked as an hour-long in person appointment, and follow ups run about 25 minutes either in person or by video. The practice does not do primary care or general gynecology, so patients keep their own provider for routine screening. Hormone therapy is one of its main focuses and may include estrogen, progesterone or testosterone, though the practice does not insert or prescribe pellets. There is a separate medically supervised weight loss track with prescribed GLP-1 medication, monthly visits and body composition scans. Laura also hosts an evening meet up each month with a guest speaker on a midlife topic.
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.
Elektra Health is a virtual menopause practice where every visit happens by video, and each patient is paired with a Menopause Society certified clinician plus a coach for nutrition, exercise and emotional support. Elektra clinicians prescribe FDA-approved hormone therapy and non-hormonal options, and the company says plainly that it does not prescribe compounded or non-FDA-approved medications and does not make money from selling supplements or products. It is also not doing medical weight loss at the moment. Visits are billed to insurance where Elektra is in network, and there is a published cash rate for people who are not. DeLasho has belonged to The Menopause Society since 1994, and she says she moved into telehealth because a routine annual gynecology visit never left enough time to talk about menopause. She is named on Elektra's clinician pages, but the sign-up flow pairs each patient with a clinician rather than letting a new patient choose her.
Dr. Kunkel is a gynecologist who runs her own membership practice for women's health inside Direct Doctors, a physician-only direct care group in East Greenwich. She spent seven and a half years as a general OB/GYN before building a practice around midlife women, and she also holds board certification in obesity medicine. New patients start with a one-time consult of up to an hour, then join her monthly membership, which is required for hormone therapy. Members can reach her directly by text, email and phone. She also treats primary ovarian insufficiency and handles in-office gynecology such as biopsies and IUDs. She began her working life in theater before switching to medicine.
Gliss Wellness is a virtual-only OB/GYN practice Dr. Walsh co-founded with a second board-certified OB/GYN, and menopause care is its main focus. Care starts with a 30-minute video consultation about your symptoms, and if hormone therapy suits you, you leave with prescriptions for the first three months. A follow-up at three months keeps refills going for the rest of the year, and refills in between happen by message through the patient portal. There is no membership, and you fill prescriptions at your own pharmacy. The doctors can't examine you in person but can order labs and other tests. Dr. Walsh's own interests include pelvic pain, endometriosis, fibroids and weight loss, and a free 15-minute call lets you meet the team before booking.
Beyer is a Midi clinical leader and sits on the company advisory board, and she still sees patients by video. She trained in obstetrics and gynaecology, then dropped obstetrics to work on gynaecology and hormonal health only. Weight is her second focus and she holds a diplomate from the American Board of Obesity Medicine. She talks openly about gaining weight before her 50th birthday and losing 35 pounds over five months, and she uses that with patients who are struggling. Care runs through Midi only, so visits are by video and anything needing an exam or imaging goes to an outside clinician. Her page has no booking link of her own, so the Midi sign-up does not let a new patient choose her by name.
Meaghan Goorley sees patients through Midi Health, a national virtual menopause clinic that works by video only. She began her healthcare career in 2011 in critical care, the operating room and oncology, then moved into family care in 2022, with most of her work since in primary care and some in addiction medicine. She says she came to Midi because primary care visits were too short to get into prevention and hormone care. Her stated approach is to ask a lot of questions, look at the whole picture, and offer the safest treatment that fits what the patient wants. She wants a space where no question counts as too much information. A new patient can book with her by name.
Dr. Page Crane is one of eight physicians at About Women By Women, a women-owned, all-female OB/GYN practice that has served the MetroWest area of Massachusetts for more than thirty years. She trained at Yale College and Harvard Medical School, finished her OB/GYN residency at Duke in 2020, joined the practice in 2023, and sees patients at both the Wellesley and Walpole offices. Her own stated clinical interests are minimally invasive gynecologic surgery and the evaluation and management of abnormal uterine bleeding, and she says she especially enjoys caring for patients through pregnancy. She is the only clinician on the team listed as a Menopause Society Certified Provider. The practice offers FDA-approved hormone therapy in oral, transdermal and vaginal forms plus transdermal testosterone for low libido, and it states plainly that it does not use compounded bioidentical hormones. Visits are unrushed, same-week slots are held for urgent problems, labs and ultrasound are done on site, and the team describes its care as concierge-level attention without membership fees.
Dr. Edelman has run her own private gynecology practice in Middleboro since 1987 and sees women from age 18 into their eighties. She practiced solo for most of that time, and in September 2024 a second board certified gynecologist who is also menopause certified joined her. Menopause care here means consultation and treatment, with plant-based hormone prescriptions or non-hormonal medication for hot flashes and night sweats. The office also runs two energy based devices in house, ThermiVa radiofrequency for vaginal dryness, painful sex and leaking, and an Emsella chair for bladder control. Her book Menopause Matters was published by Johns Hopkins University Press, and the North American Menopause Society named her its Menopause Practitioner of the Year in 2010. In the office she draws pictures and uses anatomical models so patients can see what she is describing.
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.
Lori Pigeon runs this small Canton practice for women and men in midlife, after nearly 30 years as a nurse practitioner in traditional medicine. She started it after her own late 40s, when the avid cyclist who rode 100 miles at a time found her energy gone and struggled to get answers. Every new patient starts with a long consult, and she recommends the simplest level of care that fits, from a hormone plan on its own up to a coached program. She prescribes bioidentical estrogen and progesterone and considers testosterone for some women, mainly for low desire. Weight loss with GLP-1 medication is a big part of the practice, and she is openly skeptical of peptides and supplement hype. Visits are in person or by video, including for patients in Maine, and new patients currently join a waitlist.
