MyMenopauseRx is a virtual menopause practice founded by a gynecologist, and Krantz is one of about a dozen clinicians a patient can pick from. Visits are video appointments of about thirty minutes, and most patients come back every eight to twelve weeks until their symptoms settle. She prescribes FDA-approved estradiol and progesterone rather than compounded hormones, and the practice is clear that it works alongside a patient's own primary care doctor rather than replacing it. Testosterone is written only for patients located in Illinois, and everyone else gets the prescription from their own doctor while the practice manages the dosing. Krantz has practiced for more than thirty years in university, HMO, community health and telehealth settings, and she completed the integrative medicine fellowship at the University of Arizona with training in medical acupuncture. She works from Oregon and says she has aged alongside her patients, which is how menopause care became her emphasis.
Dr. Gray is an OB/GYN at University Health Women's Care in Lee's Summit, part of Kansas City's public hospital system, and she has been medical director of University Health Women's Care since 2021. She says she focuses her practice on menopause and sexual medicine, and she is one of only two clinicians the system lists under menopause medicine. The clinic's menopause page describes care built from lifestyle changes, hormone therapy using estrogen, progesterone, testosterone or DHEA cream, and non-hormonal options for women who should not take hormones. It also cites evidence that starting hormone therapy before age 60 may help the heart, which says something about how early she is willing to treat. Sexual health is a real part of the work, and she sits on two membership committees of the International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health. Visits are in person and booked by phone with no online scheduling, and new patients fill out a gynecology questionnaire and a family cancer history form before the first appointment.
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.
Dr. Green runs a gynecology-only practice in the Northland of Kansas City, so her clinic days are never cut short by deliveries. She treats perimenopause and menopause with FDA-approved hormone therapy, including bioidentical options, and offers non-hormonal medicines for women who can't or don't want to take hormones. You can bring up hormone therapy at your first visit, but a Pap smear or pelvic exam is booked as a separate visit because of how insurance covers it. She also runs menopause group visits where you are welcome to bring a friend, and follow-ups and lab reviews can happen by video. She is a gynecologic surgeon too, so the same doctor can manage fibroids or a hysterectomy if it comes to that.
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.
Laura Grant cofounded Women's Wellness Center in Columbia with her husband Mark Grant, also an OB-GYN, in 2007, after more than a decade of delivering babies. She stopped doing obstetrics and now sees women only for gynecology, hormone therapy and pelvic floor problems. The practice runs its hormone care almost entirely on compounded pellets inserted under the skin at the hip, and says plainly why it has moved away from pills, creams and injections. Patients on pellets come back every three or four months for a face to face review with their provider. Her other main interest is bladder and bowel control and pelvic pain, which she works up herself and then treats in the office with pelvic floor therapy rather than with surgery or long term drugs. She writes and signs her own patient handouts, including one arguing that hormone therapy is safe for women who have had breast cancer.
Kasianchuk is a registered dietitian at Gennev, a virtual menopause clinic, so her work is nutrition and lifestyle counseling rather than prescribing. Gennev's doctors handle medication and hormone therapy, and she works alongside them with shared notes in the patient record. Her own page names weight management, bone health and cardiovascular health as her areas, along with sports nutrition and exercise physiology. A first visit with her runs 50 to 55 minutes and follow-ups run 30 to 40 minutes, usually every two or three weeks for at least three months, with text support in between. She also runs Gennev's lifestyle care program as its senior director of lifestyle care. Gennev's weight management track starts with the dietitian rather than the doctor and you can self-refer into it, while nutrition care in the general menopause track comes as a referral from your first doctor visit.
Carrie Wieneke Broghammer is a general obstetrician gynecologist at The University of Kansas Health System, where she chairs the OB/GYN department. The department runs a midlife program called Menopause, Intimacy and Midlife Transition, and its menopause care includes hormone therapy. Her own profile describes the breadth of obstetrics and gynecology rather than a menopause-only practice. She came to KU in 2008 and started its minimally invasive gynecology program, so gynecologic surgery is a real part of her work. Her bio says she wants patients to understand their options and play a part in their own care, and she sees teens, adults and adults over 65. Visits are at two locations on the Kansas City campus, video visits are available, and a new patient starts by sending an appointment request and waiting for a scheduler to call back.
