Diana Kumar is a board certified OB-GYN who co-founded Gliss Wellness, a virtual practice built around perimenopause and menopause. All care happens by video and secure messaging, so there is no office to visit. A menopause visit runs about 30 minutes and ends with a plan and prescriptions for an initial three month period, followed by a check-in visit before refills continue for the rest of the year. She prescribes hormone therapy when it fits, can order labs and scans, and sends prescriptions to the patient's own pharmacy. She also sees women for weight counseling and for urgent gynecology problems handled through a short written form. Her stated areas of interest are PCOS, sexual dysfunction, bone health and longevity medicine.
Midlife Wellness is a solo, consultation-only telehealth practice run by Lisa Gay from St. Croix, seeing women in the US Virgin Islands only. It is explicitly a complement to a patient's primary care provider or gynecologist and does not provide primary care or general gynecology. Visits are long, with an hour for the first one, and cover both hormonal and non-hormonal options. Estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and thyroid hormone are prescribed when clinically appropriate, but the practice does not place hormone pellets and asks women on pellet therapy to book a full initial evaluation rather than a transfer visit. Follow-up runs six to twelve weeks after starting treatment, then every six to twelve months once a regimen is settled.
Dr. Noor is a family physician who spent years in primary care, hospice and elderly care before her own perimenopause, which she first mistook for long COVID, led her into menopause medicine. Her Exeter practice is cash-pay and built around yearlong memberships, with a registered dietitian and a mindfulness coach on the team alongside her. Bone health is a particular focus, and an in-house DEXA scanner checks the spine, both hips and a forearm along with a trabecular bone score. She practices evidence-based hormone therapy and says plainly that she does not offer hormone balancing or hormone supplements. The practice does not do general primary care outside its top concierge tier. New memberships and new patient consultations are paused for now, and new patients join a waitlist.
Lauren Lockwood runs a solo virtual practice for women in perimenopause and menopause, and she also cares for women through pregnancy and postpartum. Care starts with a short introductory video call, then a one hour first visit that goes through health history, labs, symptoms and daily routines. She can prescribe medication including hormone therapy, order labs and imaging, and refer out to other clinicians when needed. Hormones are treated as one part of a plan that also covers nutrition, movement, sleep and stress, alongside functional lab testing and professional grade supplements. Half hour follow-ups keep the plan moving as new labs come back. Because every visit is virtual she asks patients to keep their own primary care provider or gynecologist, and she also runs workshops and educational events through the practice community.
Dr. Varys is a family and lifestyle medicine doctor at Carytown Direct Primary Care, a membership practice in Richmond that she opened with her husband, who is also a family physician. She names women's health and menopause care, weight loss medicine and pediatrics as her main interests, and she sees patients of all ages. The practice treats low estrogen in women with hormone therapy and also prescribes weight loss medication. Members get unlimited visits and can call or text their doctor directly, with same or next day appointments. IUD insertions and a few other procedures are done in the office. She went to medical school in Prague and says she opened the practice because care should be a real conversation rather than a rushed appointment.
New England Medicine is a small direct primary care practice in Wellesley Hills run by Dr. Leland Hull, an internist who sees adults 18 and older. Patients pay a yearly membership instead of having visits billed to insurance, which buys longer visits when needed, virtual care and a way to reach her between appointments. Menopause care is part of her everyday primary care rather than a separate hormone clinic, so she can also be your regular doctor. Before opening the practice she spent years in academic medicine and research at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard, much of it on preventive genetics. New patients start with a short video meet and greet before deciding whether to join.
Alisha Ghajar is a naturopathic doctor who sees women in perimenopause and menopause from an office in Seattle, and by video for anyone living in Washington. Washington lets naturopaths prescribe, and she does prescribe hormone therapy, though she also runs a hormone-free track of food, movement, stress work and herbs for women who cannot or would rather not use hormones. First visits run 60 to 90 minutes, and you fill out long health questionnaires and upload past lab results before you come in. Once a woman is past menopause she shifts the focus to long-term risk, naming osteoporosis, heart disease and type 2 diabetes as what she wants to head off. Weight and body composition are a large part of the practice, and she will use weight-loss medication when nutrition and training are not enough. She does not work as a primary care doctor and asks every patient to keep their own PCP for anything outside her focus.
Kristen founded Harmony Health Partners after decades as a women's health nurse practitioner, and she wrote openly about leaving rushed, insurance-driven care to build it. The practice is mostly telehealth for Connecticut patients, with limited in-person visits at an office inside a physical therapy clinic in Gales Ferry. Every new patient starts with a 60-minute Blueprint visit, and labs are ordered before it so the first appointment is spent on results and a plan. She prescribes bioidentical estradiol, progesterone and testosterone, and also treats weight gain, insulin resistance, thyroid problems, PCOS and PMDD. She works alongside two other nurse practitioners, one focused on cancer survivors and one on autoimmune and joint conditions, and coordinates care with them when symptoms overlap.
Jamie Wendt sees patients through Midi Health, a women's health practice that works only by video. She started in 2008 as a labor and delivery nurse and spent about a decade there before qualifying as a nurse practitioner in 2019, and she has worked in women's health throughout. About three years ago she shifted her focus to midlife and menopause care, which she calls the most meaningful work of her career. A first visit runs 30 minutes and return visits run 15, and care plans draw on FDA-approved hormone therapy, non-hormone prescriptions, labs and supplements. She writes about spending a year with one patient finding the right mix of hormone therapy and medication after a history of severe postpartum depression. If you need a physical exam or imaging, Midi refers you to someone local and keeps managing the rest by video.
Stacey Ratliff sees patients at the Mariemont and Kenwood offices of Concierge Medicine of Cincinnati, a three-office group founded by Dr. Lisa Larkin. She runs her own direct primary care panel and takes patients of both sexes from adolescence onward, with midlife women's health as her main interest. There are two ways to see her. You can join her membership, which costs a monthly fee plus a charge for each visit and starts with a six-month commitment, or you can book a one-off in-person menopause and women's health consult that covers perimenopause and menopause symptoms, irregular bleeding, incontinence and weight. Members reach an on-call provider after hours and use the practice's athenahealth portal for records and messages. She spent six years in primary care before adding her menopause certification, and her bio notes that she travels and spends time at the beach when she is not working.
Olga Ihnatsenka practices family medicine and is also board certified in lifestyle medicine and obesity medicine. She worked as a physician in Belarus before moving to the US, then trained at the University of Florida and stayed on as clinical faculty. Care here is a direct membership, and new members start with two 60 minute appointments before settling into monthly 30 minute visits with messaging in between. The practice prescribes FDA approved hormone therapy and testosterone gel for women, and says it generally does not use compounded hormones. Women who would rather not take hormones are offered non-hormonal medication and lifestyle changes instead. She writes the practice's blog series on estrogen, progesterone and testosterone, and she talks about using lifestyle medicine through her own menopause transition. Members must live in Florida, and visits can be in person in Gainesville or by video.
Tammie Blair sees patients through Midi Health, a virtual women's health clinic that works by video only. She focuses on the hormonal changes of perimenopause and menopause, and names weight shifts, poor sleep, mood changes and painful sex as the symptoms those changes drive. A first visit runs about 30 minutes and ends with a written care plan, and follow-ups are shorter check-ins you can book as often as you need. Midi's hormone options are FDA-approved patches, pills, gels, creams and sprays, and a plan can also include vaginal estrogen, non-hormone prescriptions and GLP-1 medication. There is no office to visit, so Midi refers out anything that needs an exam such as a mammogram and asks you to keep seeing your own regular doctors. Her own page on the site has a booking link that starts a new patient with her.
Wendy Ronco is a nurse practitioner at a large primary care practice in Exton, and her work there now centers mostly on menopause care. To see her you have to be a patient of the practice with one of its clinicians as your primary care provider. New patients can enroll with the practice and then book with her. She sees patients in the office and also does menopause visits by video on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, for patients who are in Pennsylvania at the time. She has spent her whole career in women's health and obstetrics and also handles gynecology such as Pap smears and IUDs. The practice's clinicians also run a free on-demand video series on menopause.
Dr. Fleischman runs a small hormone practice in Stamford that treats both women and men. Care starts with a free 15 minute phone call, then a detailed health questionnaire filled in through the patient portal and an hour long first visit. A phlebotomist comes to your home or office to draw blood and collect urine or saliva samples, and those results shape a written plan given at a second visit. She leans hard on bioidentical hormones and offers pellets, injections, creams, capsules and vaginal treatment, with prescriptions filled at either a compounding pharmacy or a regular one. Her training is in anti-aging and functional medicine rather than gynecology, so plans come with food, sleep and stress advice alongside the hormones. Follow up is about six weeks in and then two to four times a year.
Nefertari McClarity is a family nurse practitioner who runs a small virtual clinic for women in perimenopause and menopause. All visits are by video. Care starts with a long first visit and labs, then a second visit to go over results and set a plan. She prescribes hormone therapy including testosterone, offers non-hormonal options and GLP-1 medication for weight, and puts a lot of weight on gut health, with stool and SIBO testing available.
Vanessa Weiland runs a small Washington clinic focused on perimenopause, menopause and sexual health. She sees patients in person in Shoreline and North Bend and by video anywhere in the state. Care comes as four-month programs rather than single visits, each starting with an hour-long first visit and including messaging between appointments. She prescribes hormone therapy, including testosterone for low desire after menopause, and also uses non-hormonal treatments. She lives with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome herself and sees women whose EDS, mast cell or POTS symptoms flare around menopause. She is also a trained clinical hypnotherapist and uses it for hot flashes and sleep.
A solo physician practice treating perimenopause and menopause, medical weight management and related chronic conditions. Menopause care can be booked on its own without joining a weight program. Visits are paid one at a time rather than by membership, in person in Lakeville or by telehealth, and patients complete intake questionnaires in a portal before the first appointment. The practice prescribes only FDA-approved preparations, which are pills, patches and vaginal formulations, and states plainly that it does not prescribe compounded medication.
Empowered Wellness for Her is a nurse practitioner led clinic in New Albany that runs on memberships rather than one off visits. Everyone starts with an initial care consultation, and after that Courtney recommends one of three plans. One is a six month plan for women who are starting hormone therapy or still sorting out perimenopause symptoms, and the most involved plan adds more testing and monitoring for the long term. There is also a nutrition and coaching plan run by the practice's registered dietitian that does not include nurse practitioner visits or prescriptions, so it is worth checking which plan covers what you need. Beyond hormones the practice works on weight, sexual health, and care for breast cancer survivors and women at high risk. Courtney does a monthly women's health segment on a Columbus morning show, and the practice messages with patients through a secure texting app.
Dr. Milovina is a board-certified ob/gyn who has run a private practice in Beverly Hills since 2002. Menopause care sits alongside her general gynecology and obstetrics work, and she sees women of all ages. For menopause she offers hormone testing, bio-identical hormone therapy, vaginal estrogen, vaginal DHEA and vaginal hyaluronic acid. The office also has a CO2 vaginal laser and a pelvic floor chair for urinary incontinence, so those treatments happen on site. Many of her patients have been with her since she opened, and she sometimes cares for several generations of one family. New patients start by calling the office.
Dr. Moyers runs her own concierge gynecology practice in Fort Worth, built around perimenopause, menopause and sexual health. Most patients join a yearly membership that covers an annual physical plus eight more visits and direct access to her by phone and email, and pay-per-visit appointments are also available for those not ready to commit. She prescribes estrogen and progesterone in several forms and offers testosterone for low desire, along with in-office treatments like MonaLisa Touch laser and pelvic floor Botox. Sexual health is half of her focus and she also does osteopathic manipulation, so painful sex and pelvic pain get real attention here. Follow-ups can be done by video for patients in Texas and West Virginia, but exams and procedures happen at the Fort Worth office. The practice suggests women over 50 keep a separate primary care doctor.
MOOV El Dorado Hills is a physician-run longevity and aesthetics studio, one of nine MOOV locations. Dr. Braxley spent her career in emergency medicine before moving into longevity work, and she says her own health experience is what pushed her to change direction. Her focus is women, and she puts hormone therapy together with weight loss and everyday lifestyle changes. New patients usually start with a short virtual consult that works out which labs to run, and the plan is built from those results. The studio also does skin treatments, heart risk testing and GLP-1 weight programs, so hormone care sits alongside a lot of other services rather than being the whole practice. She is finishing board certification in obesity medicine in late 2026.
SmartMED is a family owned clinic in Roswell where most care happens at a drive-thru window, though primary care and hormone visits take place inside the building. Melissa Anderson runs the primary care and hormone management side of the practice. She is a member of The Menopause Society and did her hormone training through Harvard certification programs. A hormone visit starts with a symptom and history review, then targeted hormone and thyroid labs, and prescription hormone therapy when it fits, with follow-up labs to track how it is going. The practice runs its own lab arm, so you can pay for panels directly instead of going through insurance. One thing to know is that they do not prescribe controlled substances and will refer you elsewhere for those.
Solo virtual practice Stearns founded after a nurse practitioner career that began at a sexual medicine clinic and continued in geriatric primary care. She sees women through perimenopause, menopause and beyond, licensed only in California. New patients start with a free 15-minute discovery call and a long initial consultation with a questionnaire completed beforehand, then choose between stand-alone visits and The Midlife Membership, a concierge model with a four-month foundation phase and direct access between visits. She prescribes only FDA-approved hormone therapy sent to a local retail pharmacy and explains at length why she does not use hormone pellets. She does no in-person exams or procedures and works alongside a patient's primary care and gynecology providers. Beyond core menopause care she offers osteoporosis management and cancer-informed menopause care for women with a history of breast or gynecologic cancer.
Chapel Hill Wellness Collective is a small integrative clinic, and Dr. Otter is its medical director and the clinician behind the hormone care. Her Perimenopause and Menopause Jumpstart Program opens with a consult about symptoms and goals, then builds a plan that can combine menopausal hormone therapy with lab work, meal and exercise guidance, and IV nutrient or NAD+ infusions. She writes hormone plans from current research and a patient's own lab results. Dr. Otter came out of emergency medicine and is also board certified in obesity medicine, so weight and metabolic health sit at the center of how she treats midlife symptoms, and GLP-1 medication is part of the program for women who need it. For what the clinic does not do itself it reaches outward, working with the Medical Day Spa of Chapel Hill on hormonal skin changes and with local pelvic floor therapists, and it offers the O-Shot for sexual health. Care is in person at the single Chapel Hill office, which is open four days a week.
