About Gyn Wellness Center
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.
