Cibolo Family Medicine is a five physician direct primary care practice with offices in Boerne and northwest San Antonio, and Ashley Sommerhalder works out of the San Antonio office near The Rim. Members pay one flat monthly fee for unlimited visits and reach their physician directly by phone, text, email or video. Membership is not billed to insurance, so members tend to keep a separate plan for hospital care, specialists and imaging. She is the only Menopause Society certified practitioner on the team and describes advanced training in menopause and midlife women's health. The practice groups menopause and hormones under women's health, but the site never says which hormone treatments she prescribes. New members can sit down for a free in-office consultation at either office first, and Spanish-language help is available.
A solo direct primary care family practice in San Antonio seeing women, men and children for wellness visits, chronic conditions and same-day problems, whose physician is a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner. Members pay monthly instead of using insurance and get direct access by phone, text or video alongside same or next-day appointments in person or by telehealth. Labs are drawn in house at negotiated cash prices, with discounted imaging and body composition scanning through local partners. The practice's stated position is that symptoms rather than hormone levels should guide diagnosis, so routine hormone testing is not usually needed.
Dr. Cornforth is the only provider at Cornforth Gynecology and Medspa, the independent San Antonio practice she opened in 2021 after years in small and large group practices. She sees women for routine gynecology, abnormal bleeding, fibroids, endometriosis, contraception and menopause, and she does the surgery herself when it is needed, including robotic assisted hysterectomy. For menopause she works with estrogen patches, gels and pills, progesterone for women who still have a uterus, vaginal estrogen for dryness, and nonhormonal treatment when hormones are not appropriate. Gynecologic ultrasound is done on site, and in office lab draws are described as a benefit for members of the practice Essentials Tier 1 Access program. Virtual visits are limited to established patients who enroll in that program and hold an access code, so a new patient starts in the office. Booking requires a credit card authorization form before the appointment is reserved, and the practice charges separate administrative fees for prescription refills, prior authorizations and paperwork.
This is a one-physician membership practice that treats hormones as one part of a performance and longevity program for women and men. Dr. Wenhold spent ten years as an emergency room physician before starting it and is board certified in family medicine. Hormone therapy is dosed from the lab work that anchors the membership, which is repeated twice a year. The same membership covers nutrition and training plans and GLP-1 weight medication. Members reach the physician in person or by video, and the first step is a free video call to see if it fits. Dr. Wenhold's own article on perimenopause says normal labs do not rule it out and calls hormone therapy the most effective treatment for hot flashes for suitable candidates.
