Menopause Society Certified Practitioners in Tennessee
74 practitioners have an office in Tennessee, and 67 more can see patients here by telehealth. 93 of them are certified by the Menopause Society, and the most are in Memphis, Nashville and Chattanooga.
Dr. Dombo is a board-certified OB-GYN who is going through the menopausal transition herself. She says starting hormone therapy and changing her nutrition and supplements took her from exhaustion and poor sleep back to enjoying life, and that is why she does this work. She trained in the early 2000s, when hormone therapy was widely feared, and now calls it the gold standard for symptom relief. The first visit runs 60 minutes and covers medical and gynecologic history, medications, nutrition and exercise, then a personal treatment plan. The visit also lists a nutritionist assessment, an exercise plan and mindset coaching, and follow-ups run 25 minutes. She writes publicly about why menopause hits Black women harder and how often they face barriers to care.
The Sexual Health Institute is a small private clinic in Brentwood that Brooke Faught opened in July 2025. She is the practice's only provider. Her focus is menopause management alongside sexual health, vulvar and vaginal problems and urogynecologic conditions. Before this she spent nearly twenty years running the Women's Institute for Sexual Health in Nashville, a practice she founded in 2005, and that subspecialty background shapes how she works. Care is in person at the Brentwood office and by appointment only. Her website is a single page, so it does not say which treatments she prescribes, what visits cost or how to book other than by calling.
Galen OB/GYN East is the obstetrics and gynecology side of Galen Medical Group, a large Chattanooga physician group, and McLelland is one of more than twenty providers at the Gunbarrel Road office. She has practiced there since 1998 and still does obstetrics and gynecologic surgery, so midlife care is one part of a wide practice rather than all of it. Galen is the one that puts her forward on menopause, and she went on a local podcast to talk through the physical and hormonal changes of midlife, writes a Substack on women's health, and has a book due out in 2026. In recent years she has trained in functional medicine through the Institute for Functional Medicine, and she writes that she would rather start with lifestyle change than go straight to a prescription when that will do. Her provider page also lists a long shelf of patient handouts she uses, on hormonal symptoms, osteoporosis and gut health. Visits are in person at the Gunbarrel Road office, and the group arranges video appointments by phone.
