Dr. Balderston sees patients at Gyn Wellness Center, a gynecology only practice with four offices around Hampton Roads, and her office is the First Colonial one in Virginia Beach. She moved there from Coastal Gynecology, which no longer lists her. Her own page puts the menopausal transition, hormone therapy and sexual health at the center of her work, and she is the only clinician at the practice who holds the Menopause Society certification. She is also the practice's surgeon, and the site says she is one of the first providers in the region to offer vNOTES, a vaginal procedure it says brings less pain and a faster recovery. New patients are usually seen within two days, and a video visit can be booked as a first appointment. The practice made a point of starting to take Medicaid because most gynecologists in the area do not.
Tidewater Physicians for Women is an obstetrics and gynecology group of eighteen providers with offices in Virginia Beach and Norfolk, and Hallberg is one of its women's health nurse practitioners. The practice's own online scheduler prints a focus area of menopause on Hallberg's listing and on nobody else's. Its menopause page says the team handles hormone replacement therapy, preventive care and changes in sexual function, and it names nurse practitioners alongside the physicians as the people who do that work. Hallberg's own bio points to work with adolescents and to colposcopy, and to a role as president of the Virginia Council of Nurse Practitioners. The group also keeps a licensed clinical social worker on staff who sees patients for problems like depression during menopause, which is unusual in a gynecology office. Robotic surgery is reserved for a few named physicians, and Hallberg's appointments are booked by phone rather than through the online calendar.
