Kristen Semanision is a family medicine physician at One Medical's Upper East Side office in Manhattan. She writes on her own page that she is a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner and particularly enjoys working with people in midlife. The rest of her bio leans on prevention, nutrition, stress management and mental well being, and she says she cares for patients of all ages and loves working with new parents. The office runs its own lab for tests its providers order, and it coordinates specialty referrals through Montefiore Einstein. One Medical names menopause as part of what its primary care providers handle but never says which treatments it prescribes, so what she offers for hormones is not published anywhere on the site. Her page has no booking link of her own, so the One Medical sign up does not let a new patient choose her by name.
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.
A concierge integrative and functional internal medicine practice in Manhattan for adults with chronic conditions and midlife health, led by a board-certified internist who is also a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner. Care is sold as twelve-month packages pairing physician visits with an integrative health advisor. The first assessment is a 90-minute consultation plus an advisor visit, and New York patients are encouraged to come in for a brief exam. Consultations are by video, with unlimited portal messaging and calls answered within one to two business days.
Dr. Nouriel runs one of the few solo OB-GYN private practices in New York City, on the Upper East Side, and sees every patient herself at each visit. She is a Menopause Society certified practitioner and prescribes hormone replacement therapy when it suits the patient, with non-hormonal options offered alongside it. Her menopause work reaches past symptom relief into muscle, bone and heart health, with exercise and nutrition built into the plan. She is also a minimally invasive gynecologic surgeon and performs many procedures in her own office instead of sending patients elsewhere, and she delivers at Lenox Hill Hospital. She worked as a biomedical engineer in medical device development before medicine, and she now teaches as an assistant professor at the Zucker School of Medicine. Visits are booked online and the office reviews a patient's insurance benefits before confirming the appointment.
Lee Ellen Morrone is one of two doctors at this Upper East Side practice, alongside Karen Kirsch, and the two have worked together for more than 25 years. The gynecology side covers perimenopause and menopause evaluation and management, along with hormone replacement therapy including bioidentical hormone therapy. Morrone is the surgeon of the pair, and the practice singles out precision in gynecologic surgery. This is still a full obstetric practice, so the same two doctors who handle midlife care also deliver babies and cover their own patients around the clock. Visits are long by design, with 45 minutes set aside for an annual and up to 90 minutes for a first visit. Both doctors are certified in MonaLisa Touch.
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.
Dr. Latte-Naor is an internist who spent eight years on the integrative medicine service at Memorial Sloan Kettering. Much of her practice is women going through menopause during or after cancer treatment. First visits run about an hour, and she suggests coming to the Upper East Side office for that one, with video visits available for patients in New York, New Jersey or Pennsylvania. Alongside hormone therapy she uses sleep-focused behavioral therapy, mindfulness and hypnosis. She gives frank, evidence-based advice on herbs and supplements, sells none herself, and passes any supplement discount on to patients. You can book a single consultation or ongoing care, and her office sends an intake packet once you schedule.

Dr. Buruiana has run her own solo practice in a midtown Manhattan medical building since 2001. She is board certified in both internal medicine and obstetrics and gynecology, and she uses that primary care training to look at a patient's whole health rather than one complaint. Her stated approach to menopause is to treat it as a moment to prevent later disease, so prevention of bone loss and heart disease sits alongside symptom care. The office is an accredited advanced sonography center and runs its own gynecologic ultrasound, saline infusion sonography and office hysteroscopy on site. New patients complete a long health questionnaire before the first visit and are asked to allow two hours for it. Her site describes her menopause care at length but never names a hormone or any other medicine she prescribes.
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.
Dr. Eden is a gynecologist with a solo private practice in Midtown East, where she sees women from adolescence through menopause and beyond. For menopause care she starts with a physical exam and a review of your history, then builds a plan that can include hormone therapy and lifestyle changes. She also does the MonaLisa Touch vaginal laser in her office and offers it as an alternative or add-on to hormones for dryness, painful sex and mild leaking. She treats lichen sclerosus and other vulvar skin conditions, which many menopause clinicians don't. She says she spends a lot of time with each patient, and she is a keen believer in yoga and other complementary therapies.
Mulberry OBGYN is a solo practice on Centre Street in Lower Manhattan, started by Dr. Nyein so that patients see the same physician at every visit. Perimenopause and menopause are the center of the practice, alongside sexual health, surgical gynecology and a concierge pregnancy program. He begins with a long history of cycles and symptoms rather than a single blood test, and uses labs and imaging only where they add something. For hormones he favors regulated FDA-approved preparations and advises against compounded protocols and pellets, and he will consider testosterone only for diagnosed low desire. Because he is also a minimally invasive and robotic surgeon, he can work up abnormal bleeding in his own office with ultrasound, endometrial sampling or hysteroscopy. He is an osteopathic physician who offers hands-on osteopathic manipulative treatment to some patients, and he is the next generation of a family that has cared for women in New York for more than fifty years.
1060 OBGYN is a private, physician owned practice with two Manhattan offices, one on the Upper East Side and one in Midtown. Dr. Elliston co-founded the practice and serves as its Medical Director, and the practice names menopausal hormone therapy, advanced family planning and hypnobirthing as the areas of specialization. All of the practice's physicians deliver at Lenox Hill Hospital, so a full obstetric service runs alongside the gynecology care. The office places IUDs on site and offers local anesthesia, nitrous oxide and intravenous sedation for the procedure. A separate electromagnetic chair treatment for pelvic floor weakness and urinary leakage is bookable at the Midtown office. Telemedicine visits with the practice's clinicians are arranged by calling the office.
Kostant is one of several gynecologists at Carnegie Women's Health, the gynecology office of a high risk pregnancy group called Maternal Fetal Medicine Associates on the Upper East Side. Her own page says she handles annual exams, pregnancy planning and perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms, and that she does office and outpatient surgery herself. The practice describes menopause care as starting with blood work to check hormone levels, then choosing between hormone therapy with estrogen and progesterone or a low dose antidepressant. Carnegie also does BioTE hormone pellets, but the site names two other doctors with that service rather than her. Visits are requested through a form on the site, and you pick either the office or a Zoom appointment when you fill it in. Because the group's main business is high risk obstetrics, midlife care sits in the same office as genetic cancer screening and a nutritionist.
Downtown Women is a long established SoHo practice staffed by women clinicians, and Dr. Buxbaum joined it in 1994 to rebuild the obstetrics side. She delivered babies there for years and now limits her practice to office gynecology. Her stated interests are premenstrual syndrome, perimenopause and menopause, along with abnormal uterine bleeding and the management of abnormal Pap smears. The practice answers the menopause question on its own FAQ, saying it has providers with a special interest in treating menopause and that the approach covers lifestyle strategies, bioidentical hormones and conventional hormone replacement therapy. One thing to know is that she is not on the practice's online scheduler, so her appointments go through the office appointment staff by phone. The practice also runs an in house reproductive mental health program whose therapists see patients through perimenopause and menopause.
Dr. Baron runs her own integrative and functional medicine practice on the Upper East Side, and she sees adult women, men and older adolescents for primary care alongside menopause care. New patients are invited into a secure email portal and fill out an initial health history before the first visit, which is a long history review followed by a physical exam. A gynecological exam, if the patient wants one, usually waits for the second visit. She relies heavily on diagnostic testing and often orders functional medicine panels on top of standard fasting labs, and she sells supplements through her own dispensary. Stress is her other focus, and she thinks it drives much of what she sees, so she teaches patients breathing techniques, meditation and basic yoga and has written a book about it. She is also trained in the Bredesen Protocol and runs memory programs for people with cognitive decline and for prevention.
Upper East Side Gynecology is a two physician practice on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, and Dr. Wells built it at this address in 2005. The services page lists management of menopause among its office gynecology, but the site names no hormone treatment anywhere, so what is prescribed for menopause is not published. Most of the published detail is procedural. The office does LEEP, colposcopy, biopsies, diagnostic hysteroscopy and IUD insertion on site, and laparoscopic and vaginal surgery is done at Mount Sinai Medical Center. Dr. Wells and the other physician here trained together in residency at Mount Sinai in 2001, and both still teach residents and medical students. New patients register and sign their forms on the practice portal before the first visit, and that portal is also how patients message the doctors directly.
Dr. Goodstein is a gynecologist at Carnegie Hill OB/GYN, a small group of women doctors on the Upper East Side. She sees patients from their teens through menopause and lists hormone therapy and irregular bleeding among her areas of expertise. She is also trained in CO2 laser treatment of the vulva and vagina. The first visit is unhurried, with a full history and a sit-down talk with the doctor after the exam. She has been in practice since 2000 and still delivers babies at Mount Sinai.
