Menopause Specialists Who Accept Insurance in South Carolina
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.
Gennev is a virtual menopause clinic and Brekke is one of the doctors on its prescriber roster. She is a board certified OB-GYN with more than 25 years in practice, and her own page names perimenopause, menopause, premature ovarian insufficiency and weight management medication. Her stated approach is for women who are good at supporting everyone around them and who struggle to put themselves first. She says she does not do meal plans or macros, and works instead through small habits that build on what a patient already does well. Visits are by video and run 30 minutes, and a referral to one of the clinic's dietitians can be made at the first appointment. The clinic prescribes GLP-1 medication on its weight track and says plainly that it will not use compounded versions.
Dr. Evans practices at a Novant Health clinic on Daniel Island that handles menopause and sexual wellness only. Three clinicians work there, and a new patient gets a 40 minute first visit. Her own focus is hormone change and sexual health, including pain with intimacy, low libido and recurrent vaginal infections. The clinic prescribes hormone therapy and non hormonal treatment, and it also works on bladder and pelvic floor symptoms. Visits can be virtual or in person, though the clinic asks patients to come in for testosterone compound refills. She says most women never raise sexual health problems with a provider, and she built her practice around giving them the chance to.
Waverly Women's Health is the OB/GYN clinic of Cooperative Health, a federally qualified health center serving Columbia and the surrounding Midlands. Moore is one of seven providers there, working alongside OB/GYN physicians and other nurse practitioners. The clinic covers women's health at every age, from annual exams and pregnancy care through menopause and post-menopause hormone therapy. Visits are in person on weekdays, and new patients either call the clinic or send an appointment request online for a scheduler to answer within two business days. Because it is a community health center, fees slide with household income for people without insurance and no one is turned away for being unable to pay. Interpreters can be arranged, including Spanish and American Sign Language.
Peter Salib is an OB/GYN at Novant Health Southeast OB/GYN in Matthews, and he is one of the clinicians on Novant Health Virtual Menopause Wellness. That service runs by video and covers perimenopause through postmenopause, with hormone therapy among the treatments it offers. It also handles sleep problems, sexual health and bone loss, and it can connect you to Novant cardiology if heart health is a worry. If you need labs, imaging or an in person exam, your care team arranges it at a Novant location. The rest of his practice is general gynecology, including minimally invasive and robotic surgery and obstetric ultrasound. He says the patient relationships are what drew him to the field, and he sees patients in English, Arabic or Spanish.
Dr. Blank is an internist who runs a concierge primary care practice through MUSC Health in Mount Pleasant. Members pay a yearly fee on top of their usual insurance and get same-day or next-day visits, in person or by video, plus direct contact with her by phone, text or email. She keeps a small patient panel so visits are not rushed. She is also board certified in lifestyle medicine and obesity medicine, and she builds diet, exercise and daily habits into treatment with a focus on progress rather than perfection. Her pages do not describe a separate menopause service, so menopause care here is part of her ongoing primary care. Joining means making her your primary care doctor, and patients must be 18 or older.
Kate Dwyer is a registered dietitian with a doctorate in clinical nutrition who runs an online nutrition counseling practice. She works with women on perimenopause and menopause, fertility and pregnancy, and PCOS. She does not prescribe hormone therapy.
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.
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.
