Menopause Specialists Who Accept Medicare in Colorado
161 practitioners have an office in Colorado, and 120 more can see patients here by telehealth. 186 of them are certified by the Menopause Society, and the most are in Denver, Aurora and Boulder.
Lyons Health and Wellness is a small clinic in the Colorado foothills town Megan Foreman comes from, and she started it after leaving corporate healthcare. It is a primary care practice as well as a hormone practice, so the clinician treating your perimenopause also manages things like thyroid and cholesterol. A first visit covers your history along with sleep, food and exercise, and labs are ordered at the end so the results can be gone over at the follow-up. The clinic prefers Biote pellets and explains why it favors them over daily creams and pills, though patches, tablets and creams are options, and it uses compounding pharmacies when a dose needs to be precise. Prescriptions go to the pharmacy you choose instead of being sold in the office, and hormone care does not require a membership. Before opening the clinic Foreman ran the disordered eating team at CU Boulder, and the practice does weight and metabolic care alongside hormones.
Dr. Fagan owns Four Mile Creek Health, a small direct primary care practice in Boulder where she is a family doctor to her members. Hormone therapy is handled inside that primary care relationship, alongside weight and metabolic health, rather than as a separate menopause program. Visits run 45 minutes, and members can reach her by text, phone or email and see her in person or remotely. Her interest in hormones goes back a long way, since her master's thesis was on bioidentical transdermal hormone therapy. Her panel is full, so new patients are booked onto her calendar and the first visit may be several months away. A free 15-minute meet and greet comes before joining.
Dr. Price is a gynecologist at Boulder Women's Care, the hospital-run OB/GYN group at Boulder Community Health. She is the one doctor the hospital lists specifically for menopause care, and she also delivers babies and handles general gynecology. Menopause treatment there can include lifestyle changes, non-hormonal options and individualized hormone therapy. She sees patients in Boulder and at a second office in Erie. New patients can book online through the hospital's portal, which starts them with an annual gynecology visit. Patient reviews mention that she takes time to work through whether hormone therapy is a good fit.
Angela Jones handles menopause and hormone care at Phase II Center for Women's Health, a gynecology and pelvic health clinic in Millcreek run by an all-female team. The clinic does no obstetrics, so appointments are not bumped for deliveries. Before moving into women's health she worked in emergency medicine and critical care. She prescribes both bioidentical and conventional hormone therapy, offers non-hormonal options, and keeps an eye on bone and heart health after menopause. She also covers routine gynecology like annual exams and contraception, and a gynecologic surgeon in the same office sees bladder and prolapse problems. The clinic bills insurance, and visits are booked by phone.
She is the only OB-GYN at Intermountain Health's East Crossroads Clinic in Aurora, so the women's health care there is hers. Alongside general gynecology and obstetrics she takes menopause visits through Intermountain's menopause program, which is built for women roughly 35 to 65 with perimenopausal or postmenopausal symptoms. You fill in a symptom questionnaire first, then get 30 to 60 minutes to go through symptoms and leave with a care plan, and the program says a physical exam usually is not needed. Follow-ups are half an hour, and the program runs both video and in-office appointments. She works with FDA-approved hormone therapy and non-hormonal medication, and adds lifestyle and wellness counseling. She grew up in Parker, came back to Denver for her residency at Saint Joseph Hospital, and her other main interest is minimally invasive gynecologic surgery.
Damara Andreoli is a certified nurse midwife in the OB/GYN clinic at Denver Health, the city's large public hospital system. The midwife team there sees women for well visits and gynecologic care through menopause, and they work alongside the hospital's physicians. She sees patients at the main campus clinic in central Denver. Phone and video visits are offered for most gynecology appointments, but only to patients living in Colorado. New patients can book online through the hospital's scheduling system, and interpreters are available for every language.
