Ally Pitman is a women's health nurse practitioner at a small Connecticut practice where most visits happen by video. Her focus is women who have had breast or gynecologic cancer and are dealing with hot flashes, sleep trouble and other hormonal symptoms after treatment. For survivors who cannot take hormones she works with non-hormonal options, and she also treats perimenopause, menopause and PMDD in women without a cancer history. Care starts with a 60-minute first visit, and labs are ordered before it so the results are ready to discuss. She works alongside two other nurse practitioners in the practice, one of whom handles autoimmune and rheumatology problems. In-person visits are limited and take place in a physical therapy office in Gales Ferry.
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.
