AlcheMe Health is a small Davenport practice for women in perimenopause and menopause, founded by nurse practitioner Kristin Everhart. Labs are ordered two weeks before the first visit, so the hour-long first consultation goes straight to your results and options. She prefers to start with FDA-approved hormones and compounds only when needed, and she does not offer pellets, which the practice calls invasive and not FDA-approved. She also starts one hormone at a time so you can tell what each one does, and offers low-dose testosterone for women. Medical weight management with in-office body scans is a big part of the practice, and GLP-1 medication can be part of that plan. The practice does not replace your primary care provider or gynecologist.
The Group has been practicing in the Quad Cities since 1978 and is an obstetrics and gynecology practice, with its main office in Davenport and a second in Clinton open on Wednesdays. Eight physicians work alongside midwives, nurse practitioners and physician assistants, and Barclay joined in 2006. On the gynecology side the practice handles perimenopause and menopausal symptoms, and also bleeding after menopause and urinary incontinence. Bone density screening and pelvic floor therapy are done in the office, so a woman worried about her bones or her bladder can be seen in one place. Care is in person only, and a new patient either calls or sends the appointment request form, after which the office rings back to confirm details before anything is booked. The site never names a hormone treatment, so what she prescribes for menopause is not published.
