Infinite Wellness is a small Miami clinic owned by Desiree Orta, a nurse practitioner who trained at the University of Miami and Jackson Memorial Hospital. She approaches hormone changes through functional medicine and starts everyone with a consultation covering labs, symptoms and lifestyle before anything is prescribed. Hormone care may include estrogen, progesterone or testosterone, and she also places hormone pellets under the skin. The same practice does a lot of aesthetic work such as Botox, fillers and microneedling, with a dermatologist as medical director, so hormone patients share the clinic with cosmetic ones. She also runs a medical weight loss program built around GLP-1 medication, and a separate thyroid visit for people already on thyroid medication who still feel unwell. Appointments are booked online and the hormone consultation and follow ups can both be done virtually.
Alvarez and Vinueza is a two doctor OBGYN office in south Miami that covers pregnancy care, annual well woman visits and gynecologic surgery, with menopause handled as part of general gynecology rather than a separate program. The doctors use both hormone replacement and non hormonal medication depending on the patient, and they work on hot flashes, vaginal dryness and lower sex drive. They arrange bone density and mammogram screening when it is needed, and they also evaluate pelvic pain. Some gynecologic surgery is done in their own office instead of a hospital, which they say means quicker recovery and less cost to the patient. Dr. Vinueza has practiced in Miami since 2003, sees patients in English and Spanish, and says the small size of the office is what lets him avoid rushing a visit. New patients fill in an appointment request online and a staff member calls back to confirm a time.
Dr. Karmin is a gynecologist who started this practice in 2006 after many years in New York. She does a lot of her gynecologic work in the office, including ultrasound at the visit, hysteroscopy, colposcopy and LEEP. For menopause she uses hormone therapy and nonhormonal options, and the practice says it usually recommends FDA approved bioidentical hormones. Vaginal estrogen, low-dose antidepressants for hot flashes and osteoporosis medication are also on the menu. She sees patients from adolescence through menopause and speaks both English and Spanish. She works alongside Dr. Dejean, and new patients can book online.
Dr. Moreno-Jackson is the medical director and only listed physician at a small boutique OB/GYN practice in Kendall. She grew up in Puerto Rico and says she went into medicine because women there were not always listened to. The practice covers gynecology and obstetrics, and she delivers babies at Baptist Hospital of Miami. Menopause and hormone management are listed among the gynecology services alongside pelvic pain, incontinence and heavy or irregular periods. The site is also written in Spanish, and the practice offers same-day and short-notice appointments plus an on-site lab and ultrasound.
Dr. Khamvongsa is a gynecologist and urogynecologist who runs a multispecialty women's practice in the Medical Arts West Tower in Kendall. He prescribes bioidentical hormone therapy for perimenopause and menopause, and he also treats mood symptoms with non-hormonal medication when that is the main complaint. His urogynecology training means bladder leakage, prolapse and painful sex can be handled in the same office as hormone care. He is a fellow of the International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health and sees many patients for low libido and vaginal dryness. He is a retired Navy commander, and he and his office staff speak Spanish, with French also available from him. New patients request an appointment through a short form on the website.
