Dr. Ashaye founded InTouch Primary Care in Sugar Land and is the only physician there. She is board certified in family medicine and in lifestyle medicine, and her site says she has specialized menopause training. Her menopause page works through non-hormonal options before it reaches hormone therapy, and it names the actual drugs and delivery routes she uses. Women can keep their own primary care doctor and buy menopause care on its own, or put both under one plan. Care runs on an annual membership that covers follow-up visits, prescription management and direct messaging with her. She also records a weekly health video on her own YouTube channel and holds free community talks on metabolism and menopause.
Alex Suarez runs Care By Alex as a solo practice out of Sugar Land, with virtual visits and in person visits both by appointment. New patients choose one of two starting points, a single wellness consultation or a longer deep dive that bundles an intake, a foundational lab panel and a separate visit to go through the results. She prescribes hormone replacement therapy, testosterone and GLP-1 weight medication when she judges them appropriate, alongside supplement and lifestyle guidance. Thyroid care is a real part of the practice, and she looks past a single TSH value at free T3, free T4, reverse T3 and antibodies. Ongoing hormone treatment is currently delivered through Juvan MD, a Houston wellness practice where she also sees patients, so the independent Care By Alex route is mainly consultations. She says she started the practice after struggling with her own hormones and weight and being told her labs looked normal.
Vida Family Medicine is a small direct-care practice in Sugar Land, and Dr. Kumar is the internist there who handles midlife and menopause care. Her perimenopause evaluation runs over two visits, a 60 to 90 minute history and physical with labs ordered, then a results review where she sets a plan that can mix hormone and non-hormone treatment. She wants the first visit in person because she does a physical assessment including a pelvic exam, and after that visits can be by video, with messaging in between through the practice's Spruce app. She will also come to your home for a new patient visit in some Houston neighborhoods for an extra fee. She came to this from hospital and ICU work and primary care at the VA, and she says plainly that she makes no money from selling medications or supplements, so she sticks to proven treatments and steers people away from quick fixes sold by non-experts. She asks patients to plan on six months to a year of working together, and the practice cannot take anyone eligible for Medicare or Medicaid.
Sweetwater OB/GYN Associates is a Sugar Land practice Dr. Blonder co-founded with Dr. Shannon Crowe in 2009, and the two are still its only physicians, working alongside six nurse practitioners. He is a BioTE certified practitioner and has his own hormone page on the practice site, so pellet therapy is his work and not only Dr. Crowe's. Hormone care starts with in-office blood work covering sex hormones, thyroid levels and a metabolic panel, and the pellets are placed in the office. For women who would rather not take hormones the practice offers Estrovera, a non-hormonal product for menopause symptoms. Dr. Blonder came up through surgery and still does minimally invasive gynecologic work, including incontinence and pelvic support procedures. A med spa called Sugar Land Hormones and Wellness runs inside the same office and shares the hormone program.
