Dr. Semby is a naturopathic doctor who works mostly with midlife women and with women worried about their long-term brain health, including those with dementia in the family. She came to medicine in her 40s after a career in finance, and she went through menopause and breast cancer herself. She says hormone therapy is one part of menopause care and not the whole of it, and she treats it as an individual decision. She is open to discussing hormones for women whose history makes the decision harder, such as breast cancer or heart disease. Care runs as a six-month program with eight physician visits and direct messaging between visits, or as a one-time baseline assessment with labs. She sees patients at her Carlsbad office or by video.
