Jennifer Ha runs the hormone and integrative medicine side of The Skin Clinic, a Houston practice otherwise known for injectables and laser work. She sees women in perimenopause and menopause, and she also manages thyroid and metabolic problems. Every plan starts with lab work, and the clinic says treatment is never prescribed on symptoms alone. She does the evaluation, prescribing and follow-up herself, and plans can include estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid medication or GLP-1 medication when the labs support it. She came to this field through her own health struggles and an interest in functional medicine. Patients often mention that she reads the intake forms closely and does not rush the visit.
Complete Midlife Wellness Center is a Houston practice founded in 2020 that sees only midlife women, across three offices and by video. Leah Love is one of its two physicians and is listed as the practice gynecologist, with eight nurse practitioners and two nurses making up the rest of the care team. Most of her career was in academic medicine, where she won awards for teaching, leadership and research, and she says she grew tired of putting a band-aid on illness that was preventable. She writes openly about food as medicine, including how she became anemic in college eating cheap processed food and fixed it by changing what she ate rather than by taking iron. Hormone care starts on one of two set routes, a shorter visit with a limited blood panel or a longer visit with a fuller panel and a follow-up visit built in. The practice names her for its unhurried 30 minute annual wellness exam, which it offers to existing patients only.

Lindsay Botsford is a family physician at One Medical's BLVD Place office in Houston, which is a general primary care practice and not a menopause clinic. Her own page on the One Medical site says she is a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, and most of her Houston colleagues' pages carry no such line. The office page says you can book online without a membership and that visits are billed to you or your insurance. She is also a regional medical director for One Medical across Texas and the Midwest, and she still keeps her own panel of continuity patients. 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. Nothing on the site says what One Medical prescribes for menopause.
Dr. Rao is an OB/GYN at Kelsey-Seybold Clinic, a large Houston multispecialty group, and she is one of only a handful of its providers whose profile carries a Menopause Care specialty tag next to OB/GYN. She trained at Baylor, where she was chief resident, and she sees patients in English and Hindi. She still runs a full obstetric and gynecologic practice rather than a menopause only one. Her menopause work covers hot flashes, bone loss, bladder symptoms and pain during sex, and she also does minimally invasive gynecologic surgery. She sees patients at the Rice Village OB/GYN office and the Downtown Clinic, and operates at the Berthelsen Main Campus surgery center. Care is booked through the group's own round the clock scheduling line or its patient portal, and her profile shows her open to new patients.
Dr. Christi founded this Houston practice in 2014 and runs it as two arms in one building, a urogynecology and surgery office and a separate longevity, hormone and aesthetics clinic a few suites down. She is a board certified urologist who spent her career in female urology and urogynecology, so prolapse, urinary incontinence, overactive bladder and recurrent urinary tract infections are her core work, and she has her own treatment pathway for interstitial cystitis. Hormone care for perimenopause and menopause runs through a year long concierge program with two tiers, built on an 80 marker blood panel and quarterly dose adjustments. The hormone pages describe bioidentical estradiol, progesterone and testosterone delivered as pellet implants, transdermal creams or sublingual troches, and say she inserts the pellets herself. The menopause page markets the practice as not a pellet mill, while the hormone pages put pellet implants first, which is worth knowing before a visit. She wrote a book on aging called The BioVitality Blueprint, and the practice says she and her husband use the same hormone therapy it prescribes.
Dr. Sims is a Houston OB-GYN who runs a perimenopause and menopause clinic inside her own practice. Most visits happen by video, and established patients can also be seen at her central Houston office. New patients start with a virtual visit that opens with a short group orientation and then moves to private time with her. She mixes standard hormone therapy with functional medicine, herbs and Ayurveda, and she also treats low testosterone in women and runs a medical weight loss program. She writes openly about her own autoimmune illness and losing 70 pounds, which is what pushed her toward this style of care. Her main practice bills insurance, and women outside her network can join a separate self-pay program built around labs and education modules.
Dr. Groves is a gynecologist at a large, physician-owned internal medicine clinic in Houston. After several years of delivering babies in private practice, she now sees only gynecology patients, adults aged 17 and over. She lists perimenopause and menopause care and hormone replacement therapy among her areas of expertise, along with alternatives to hormone therapy. She also does in-office procedures such as IUD placement, Nexplanon, colposcopy and endometrial biopsy. Her stated approach is evidence based and whole person, with longer visits set aside for complex or multifactorial concerns. New patients book by calling her office, and the clinic's online appointment requests are for established patients only.
Dr. Tarrant is one of two gynecologists at Medical Clinic of Houston, a physician owned multi specialty clinic near Rice University, and she works out of its sixth floor. She is a board certified OB-GYN whose practice here is limited to clinic based gynecology, so she does no obstetrics. She sees adult women from menarche through menopause and beyond, and her bio names hormone replacement therapy and alternatives to hormone therapy among the things she treats. She came to medicine from biomedical engineering at Vanderbilt and has more than twenty years of clinical practice behind her. She has recorded short video answers to about twenty patient questions on her profile, covering how her office runs and what she considers as an alternative to medication. New patients start by calling her secretary, since the clinic's online appointment request only works for established patients in the portal.
Complete Midlife Wellness Center was founded in 2020 by an OB/GYN who had built one of the largest all-female OB/GYN groups in Houston and wanted to work only in midlife medicine. Brandi Wachel is a certified women's health nurse practitioner who first worked for that founder in 1999, then spent years in gynecologic oncology at MD Anderson caring for women newly diagnosed with cancer and others going through chemotherapy and radiation. She rejoined the founder in 2005 and came to this practice in 2021, and she still sees patients she has had for twenty years. Hormone care runs on two set routes, a shorter consultation with a limited blood panel or a longer one with a full panel and a follow-up visit built in. The practice prescribes both FDA approved and compounded hormone therapy, says it has performed over 15,000 pellet insertions, and refines its dosing with Baylor College of Medicine. Brandi also does Juliet vaginal laser treatments, which the practice offers to women who cannot take estrogen, including breast cancer survivors.
Christy Claverie is a women's health nurse practitioner at the Tanglewood office of Complete Women's Care Center, a three office obstetrics and gynaecology group in Houston. She spent years as a labour and delivery and emergency room nurse in Louisiana and Texas before qualifying as a nurse practitioner in 2018, and joined this practice in 2019. Her own bio is the part of the site that names menopause for her, and it says she helps women weigh evidence based treatment choices through perimenopause and after. The practice page about menopause care speaks for its doctors rather than its nurse practitioners, so her own certification is the clearer signal here. Alongside menopause care she sees pregnancy and gynaecology patients and does her own obstetric and gynaecologic ultrasounds. Her online booking calendar is not published, so a new patient sends an appointment request or calls the office.
Dr. Patni has been with Kelsey-Seybold Clinic since 2009 and sees patients at the group's Rice Village OB/GYN office, which has three OB-GYNs. Her profile names menopause care as a specialty alongside general OB-GYN, and her bio says she works on midlife health through lifestyle changes, hormone therapy and osteoporosis prevention. She also runs a full obstetric practice and does minimally invasive gynaecologic surgery, so menopause is one part of her work rather than all of it. She is bilingual in English and Spanish and trained at UTHealth in Houston. Her published research, under her earlier surname Phatak, includes work on preventing preterm birth. Her page shows her as welcoming new patients and starts the scheduling flow from the profile itself.
Dr. Perez is an obstetrician gynaecologist at the UT Physicians Women's Center in Memorial City, the clinical practice of UTHealth Houston. She went to medical school and trained in residency at UT Southwestern and is board certified in obstetrics and gynaecology. UT Physicians gives every provider the same short profile of schooling, board certification and languages, so the site never says what she treats or which hormone therapies she prescribes. Her profile at UT Physicians is new and longtime patients have followed her from a previous practice, including one who says she has seen her for more than twelve years. A patient review on her page describes her talking through menopause. New patients book by sending the Women's Centers appointment request form, which lets you name her as the preferred physician.
Emily Medley is a licensed nurse practitioner who prescribes, and she pairs that with clinical hypnosis. She founded a small Houston practice for women, and her own menopause page described shared decision-making on lifestyle changes, bioidentical hormone therapy and non-hormonal options. Medical visits there ran under a named collaborating physician, while the hypnosis, Reiki and energy work sat in a separate non-medical business she also owns. Offering hypnosis as a non-drug route for hot flashes is unusual here, and it is the thing a patient would remember about her. Her practice website has been offline since the middle of 2025 and the domain is now parked for sale, so her prices, intake process and availability cannot be checked today. A provider profile at Katy Wellness Center and Family Physicians still names her for women's health and menopause care, and that clinic looks like the live way to reach her.
