Menopause Specialists Who Accept Medicare in Mississippi
14 practitioners have an office in Mississippi, and 45 more can see patients here by telehealth. 34 of them are certified by the Menopause Society, and the most are in Madison, Southaven and Biloxi.
Premier Women's Health is a full OB/GYN office in Gulfport, with two physicians and Graves as its women's health nurse practitioner. She grew up on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and trained in a dual family and women's health nurse practitioner program at UNC Chapel Hill, doing clinical rotations at Duke in maternal-fetal medicine and labor and delivery triage. She credits the two physicians she works beside for her training, and says caring for women at every stage of life is what she found most rewarding. Her own stated clinical interests are wellness and prevention, adolescent health, diabetes and polycystic ovary syndrome, so the menopause side of the work comes from the practice rather than from a focus she names herself. For menopause the practice offers hormone therapy and bone health screening, and it runs a separate wellness arm built around bioidentical hormone pellets, inserted under the skin and meant to last four to six months, with hormone labs drawn about a month after each insertion. Care is in person only, and new patients start by filling out a packet from the site.
Sanders Clinic for Women is an independent women's health practice in Tupelo that has been open since 1971, with nine physicians and three nurse practitioners working out of two offices in town. Dr. Turner joined in 2004 and does general obstetric and gynecologic care, seeing patients at every stage of life. The practice splits its gynecology work into care before 40 and care after 40, and menopause treatment sits in the after-40 list next to well woman exams and urinary health. The site does not say what menopause treatment here involves or whether hormones are part of it. Visits are in person during weekday clinic hours, and a new patient starts by calling or filling in the appointment request form on the site. Dr. Turner studied microbiology at Mississippi State before medical school and has chaired the obstetrics and gynecology section at North Mississippi Medical Center, where the clinic's doctors deliver babies and operate.
Dr. Swing is a board-certified OB/GYN whose practice is built around hormone care for women in perimenopause and menopause. A first-person account on the site describes going through menopause in the mid forties, finding that the regimens taught in residency did not work, and then taking extra training in bioidentical hormone therapy. Hormone patients join an annual cash-pay program, and the practice will only fill hormone prescriptions for women enrolled in it. Testosterone pellets are placed in the office in a procedure that takes ten to twenty minutes, written up in the first person down to how long the paper strips stay on. Routine gynecology runs on a separate track and is billed to insurance. A nurse practitioner joined in 2025 and covers much of the general gynecology.
