50 practitioners have an office in South Carolina, and 51 more can see patients here by telehealth. 61 of them are certified by the Menopause Society, and the most are in Mount Pleasant, Columbia and Greenville.
Dr. Houlton is an OB/GYN at MUSC Women's Health in Mount Pleasant and also sees patients at the Daniel Island office. She lists menopause as one of her main clinical interests alongside robotic surgery and pregnancy care. She practiced in Seattle for almost nine years before moving to Charleston. She sees women of all ages and says she values caring for the same patients over many years. New patients can book a new gynecology visit online through MUSC MyChart.
Dr. Cobbs runs Dominion Gynecology, a solo office on the South Strand Medical Center campus in Myrtle Beach. After nearly three decades of hospital obstetrics and gynecologic surgery in Northern Virginia, Dr. Cobbs moved to South Carolina and opened what the practice calls an office only preventative gynecology practice. Patients are seen for Pap smears, breast exams, contraception, abnormal bleeding, vaginitis, vulvar problems, PCOS, endometriosis, painful intercourse and menopause, and hospital surgery or delivery is referred to colleagues in Myrtle Beach. Menopause is one of the appointment types the site advertises, and that entry offers help with vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, low libido, fatigue and weight gain. Nowhere does the site name a treatment or say what is prescribed, so what the practice does about any of those symptoms is not published. A banner on every page says the office is taking new patients, appointments are booked by telephone, and a patient portal is linked from the top of every page.
Parkside OB-GYN is a fifteen provider group in Greer that cares for women from adolescence through menopause. Its general women's care list names hormone replacement therapy and menopausal medicine, and a separate sexual wellness list names hormone replacement therapy again next to low libido, painful sex and care after cancer treatment. The group does a wide range of in office procedures, from colposcopy and LEEP to endometrial ablation, IUD placement and hysteroscopy, and it handles hysterectomy and myomectomy surgically. Dr. White's bio names relieving menopausal symptoms as a favorite part of the work, along with managing heavy menstrual bleeding and getting to the root of pelvic pain. Obstetric patients deliver at Patewood Hospital on the Prisma Health campus in Greenville, and one of the nurse practitioners leads a Menopause 101 class. New patients start by calling the office, and there is no online booking.
