Menopause Society Certified Practitioners in Michigan
191 practitioners have an office in Michigan, and 79 more can see patients here by telehealth. 194 of them are certified by the Menopause Society, and the most are in Grand Rapids, Ann Arbor and Holland.
Dr. Schisler runs a direct primary care practice in Bay City, the town she was born and raised in. She spent seventeen years in a traditional insurance-based practice before switching to a monthly membership in 2023. Members get unlimited office visits and can reach her directly by text, email, phone or video chat. Hormone therapy for perimenopause and menopause is one of her stated interests, alongside fitness, nutrition and preventive medicine, and she took Dr. Heather Hirsch's course on prescribing and managing it. She still looks after the whole family, from children to seniors, so menopause care sits inside general primary care rather than in a separate program. New patients enroll online or by phone, and she or her staff call to set up a meet and greet before the first appointment.
Dr. Brode is a board certified urologist who gave up surgery and now runs her own virtual practice for women in perimenopause and menopause, and she sees men for sexual health too. Visits happen by video, and she takes patients in Michigan, New York and Texas. New patients can start with a short introductory call that is only a conversation about whether she is a fit, with no diagnosis or prescribing. Her hormone care stays with FDA approved therapy, and a visit covers sleep, mood, stress and daily life as much as medication. Her urology background shows in what she treats, including bladder leaks, urgency, waking at night to urinate and repeat UTIs alongside vaginal dryness and painful sex. She says going through perimenopause herself showed her how little she and other clinicians had been told about the options, and she went on to take extra training in menopause care.
Kelly Strawser is a certified nurse midwife at Henry Ford Women's Health in Royal Oak, and her profile names her a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner. Henry Ford says its certified nurse midwives care for women from puberty through menopause, and menopausal care is one of the services they list. The midwives treat menopause as a normal life stage rather than a medical problem, and they work alongside the gynecologists and obstetricians in the same group. Hormone therapy is offered and matched to a woman's own risk profile, with estrogen available as a gel, pill, patch, ring or vaginal cream. Henry Ford cautions that custom compounded hormones are not tested for purity or safety and points women to regulated products instead. Menopause is one of the reasons a patient can be seen by video visit through the Henry Ford patient portal.
Zuli Direct Care is a two physician direct primary care practice in Mishawaka that serves South Bend and the surrounding area. Members pay a monthly fee that covers unlimited visits, and they can reach their own doctor by phone, text or email. Dr. Bajuyo is a family physician who is also certified by the Menopause Society, and the practice lists menopause, perimenopause and other hormonal concerns among the things it treats. The practice writes that most physicians were never taught about menopause and hormone therapy, and it points to both of its doctors being trained in it. Visits happen in the office or by video or phone, and labs and many common medications are handled in house. Dr. Bajuyo's patient panel is full, so a new patient joins her wait list or enrolls with the other physician.
Dr. Yehl founded Coastal Women's Medical after 24 years in hospital medicine, having worked first as a nurse and then as a certified nurse midwife before medical school. The practice is built around long visits, with 90 minutes for a new patient and a care plan written once labs come back. Ongoing hormone care runs on a monthly membership with quarterly visits, and patients who become clinically stable can step down to a cheaper program with fewer visits. Weight change in midlife is treated as a hormonal problem, so GLP-1 medication is managed alongside hormone therapy rather than in a separate track. Primary care is reserved for concierge members, and everyone else is seen for hormone, menopause or weight care. The office also runs medical grade red light therapy and a paid audio course for women who want to arrive at an appointment prepared.
Dr. Anyaoku founded Hibiscus Aesthetics and Wellness in Katy and is the only clinician there. Hormone care starts with a wide lab panel rather than a symptom questionnaire, and she orders markers like free T3, DHEA-S and fasting insulin that a standard physical skips. She prescribes bioidentical hormones as patches, creams, injections or pills, and no page on the site mentions pellets. She is also a diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine, so weight and hormone questions get handled in the same visit. Aesthetic treatments happen in person at the Katy clinic, while hormone, weight and longevity care can be done by video in 23 states. You pay per visit and there is no membership or package.
IntimMedicine Specialists is a small Washington DC practice that Dr. Simon founded and still runs as medical director, with two physician assistants who have worked with him since the 1990s. He treats women across the whole reproductive span, and the midlife side of the practice covers menopause and perimenopause, low testosterone, bone loss, sexual pain and sexual function after cancer. His approach to hormones is to balance estrogen, progesterone and testosterone, and the practice says most women can use hormone therapy with few risks. For testosterone he will use gels, injections or pellets, and he says he does not treat on lab values alone. Visits happen in the M Street office or by video, and virtual appointments are offered on Saturday mornings as well as weekdays. New patients submit a form or call and the office rings back to finish booking, and because the practice runs its own clinical trials some patients are offered a place in a study.
Concierge Medicine of Westlake is Dr. Fiffick's own practice. She keeps the patient panel small and runs it on annual memberships rather than billing insurance. The women's health membership covers non-obstetric care through midlife, with perimenopause and menopause symptom management alongside bone health, cardiovascular risk and urogenital health, and it includes hormone prescription management when she judges it appropriate. Members get 30 or 60 minute visits, same or next day openings, and her direct phone, text and email, and virtual visits are offered as a supplement with prior approval when an exam is not needed. She came to women's health through family medicine after being told early on that the only route was OB-GYN, then spent two years in the Cleveland Clinic's Specialized Women's Health fellowship. As an osteopathic physician she also does hands-on manipulative treatment, which patients can buy as its own membership or one visit at a time.
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.
Takes Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield +4 · first visit $150
Kelly Perisin is a nurse practitioner at MyMenopauseRx, a video-only practice that treats nothing but perimenopause and menopause. It was started by a Chicago-area gynecologist and bills insurance like a regular office. Visits take about 30 minutes on Zoom, and you can book the same clinician every time and message the care team between visits. Kelly came to menopause care from weight management and urgent care, and she draws on that when helping women with midlife weight gain. The practice prescribes FDA-approved estradiol and progesterone sent to your own pharmacy, and it prescribes testosterone directly only for patients in Illinois. It is meant to work alongside your own primary care doctor, who still handles anything that needs a physical exam.
Gennev is an all-virtual menopause clinic owned by Unified Women's Healthcare, and care starts with a 30 minute video visit with a menopause-trained doctor. Dunsmoor-Su is Gennev's chief medical officer and she also carries her own patient list. The areas she names herself include premature ovarian insufficiency, breast cancer risk and survivorship, endometriosis, and weight management with medication. Her background is clinical epidemiology, and she still runs women's health drug trials as a medical director at a Seattle research centre and teaches OB-GYN residents. She says she treats each visit as a chance to explain the current evidence so the decision about treatment is a shared one. Doctors here prescribe FDA-approved hormone therapy when a patient is a candidate and non-hormonal medicines when she is not, and the clinic tells patients to steer clear of compounded weight drugs made outside FDA oversight.
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.
Takes Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield +2 · first visit $250
Jennifer Soper is a women's health nurse practitioner who sees patients by video through Midi Health, a national virtual menopause practice. She spent 25 years as a labor and delivery nurse before becoming a nurse practitioner. She says estrogen therapy changed her own life when hot flashes started at 50, and that is why she moved into menopause care. Visits are billed to insurance or paid per visit, with no subscription. You can ask for her by name through the Book a Visit with Me link on her Midi page, though that can mean fewer open times than booking with any clinician.
Sarah Wallis is a certified nurse-midwife and women's health nurse practitioner with twenty years in women's health, seeing patients by video through Midi Health. Her focus is health and wellness in midlife and the menopause transition. She speaks English, Spanish and Arabic and describes her care as culturally sensitive. In her own words, many of her patients have felt dismissed by a health system that does not grasp how big the changes of midlife are. She wants every patient to understand how her own body works, so she can take charge of her well-being. Midi lists her as a clinical leader and her page has no booking link of her own, so the sign-up does not let a new patient choose her by name.
Dr. Kim runs a small general gynecology office in Saginaw where menopause management sits alongside routine exams, contraception and gynecologic surgery. Her site says she handles every service herself, from pap smears to menopause treatment, so you see the doctor rather than being handed off. She also treats osteoporosis, from screening through to treatment. The office has in-house vaginal laser treatment for dryness, painful sex and leaking after menopause, mostly run by her nurse practitioner, who started out in urology. Visits are in person only and booked by phone. The office is closed on Fridays and keeps a short lunchtime slot for people who can't come in during the workday.
Dr. O'Shell is an obstetrician gynecologist at Associated Obstetrics and Gynecology, a seven clinician group with offices in Bloomfield Hills and Clarkston, and joined the practice in September 2020. The practice bio describes care across the whole span of a woman's life, from routine and high risk pregnancy through to midlife and menopause, and names hormone replacement therapy among the stated areas of expertise. Hormone replacement therapy is one of eleven services the group lists under its own What we offer heading, and the gynecology page sets out menopause management alongside osteoporosis diagnosis and bone density testing. Surgery is a real part of the work here, with training in minimally invasive gynecologic, pelvic and robotic technique and certification in da Vinci robotic surgery. The practice runs a blood test for vitamin D status in its own office and reports that half the patients it checks come back deficient. Residency was in obstetrics and gynecology at a hospital in Southfield, and the bio notes deep roots in the local community after growing up in Walled Lake.
Dr. Bianchi is an OB-GYN at the Marshfield Medical Center clinics in Iron Mountain, in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Menopause care is one of the types of care her profile lists, next to pregnancy and general gynecology, so menopause visits sit inside a broad OB-GYN practice rather than a separate menopause clinic. Her bio says she manages menopausal symptoms and also treats abnormal uterine bleeding, sexual health concerns and pelvic organ prolapse. The women's health department she works in names hormone therapy and bone density screening as part of its menopause care. She describes her approach as listening to the concern, doing her best to find an explanation, and then offering evidence-based options. She trained in osteopathic medicine and did her residency in Michigan, and she is raising three children with her husband, a captain in the Air Force.
Somerset Gynecology and Obstetrics is a seven physician obstetrics and gynecology practice with one office in Troy. Dr. Paladino treats patients from childhood through old age, with stated medical interests in anovulatory syndromes and menopausal hormone management. The practice says it offers traditional hormone replacement therapy and bioidentical hormone treatments, and it treats osteoporosis prevention as part of menopause care. Dr. Paladino is also a minimally invasive surgeon who operates laparoscopically and robotically, including a single site robotic approach. The practice page describes Dr. Paladino as an LGBTQIA friendly physician who provides gynecologic care and gender affirming hysterectomy to transgender men. The office runs diVa laser vaginal therapy for dryness and painful sex.
Walnut Lake OBGYN and Wellness is a four clinician practice inside the UWH of Michigan network, and Dr. O'Keefe is the one there who holds the menopause certification. She sees women from adolescence through menopause and keeps a pregnancy and gynecologic surgery practice alongside the menopause work. Her own page says she provides a full range of menopause treatments including the Mona Lisa Touch laser for vaginal dryness and pain with sex. A colleague in the same office offers that laser as well, so it is not hers alone. The practice bills insurance and publishes its own list of accepted plans on its page. New patients can choose her by name in the booking tool and book a first visit.
Dr. Marcotte is an OB/GYN at a large women's health group in West Bloomfield whose physicians all provide menopause care. Her own focus is minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, including vaginal and laparoscopic hysterectomy and repair of bladder leakage and pelvic prolapse. That makes her a good fit for women whose menopause symptoms come with bleeding, prolapse or incontinence problems that may need a procedure. The practice treats menopause with hormone therapy, estrogen therapy and non-hormonal prescriptions. Before joining the center she trained resident physicians in Cincinnati. Care is in person at the West Maple Road office, which says it is always accepting new patients.
Alexis Phillips is a family nurse practitioner at Okemos OB/GYN, one of twelve obstetrics and gynecology offices run by University of Michigan Health-Sparrow. She is the only nurse practitioner on the Okemos team, and the other providers listed there are physicians who also work at the system's other OB/GYN offices. Care is in person at the single Okemos office, which is open weekdays. New patients start by downloading the office's own paperwork packet and calling to be scheduled, because the site has no online booking. Visits are billed to insurance, and the system publishes the plans it takes rather than what a visit costs. Her page says she became a nurse practitioner because the human body fascinates her, and she mentions yoga, crocheting and her French bulldog Winston.
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.
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.
Abby Brown is a nurse practitioner in the obstetrics and gynaecology clinics at University of Michigan Health, and she sees patients at the Brighton health centre as well as two Ann Arbor sites. She trained in both nurse midwifery and family practice, and she cares for women across the span of adult life, from contraception and low risk obstetrics through menopause. She is also one of the nurse practitioners in the health system's vulvar diseases clinic, which treats skin conditions of the vulva such as lichen sclerosus along with precancerous changes. A new patient there gets a long first appointment covering nursing education, a clinical exam and a sexual health visit, and a return visit is often with a different member of the team on purpose. Referrals to that clinic are heavy enough that it no longer takes routine vulvodynia cases and sends them to a separate clinic in the system. Visits can be in person or by video, and a video visit means being physically in Michigan on the day.
