Menopause Specialists Who Accept Medicare in Maine
39 practitioners have an office in Maine, and 63 more can see patients here by telehealth. 68 of them are certified by the Menopause Society, and the most are in Portland, Scarborough and Freeport.
Olive Tree Medical is a small concierge practice in Wellesley run by two women physicians who keep the panel to a few hundred patients. Dr. Walkey is a primary care internist who is also board certified in lifestyle medicine, and she became a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner in 2024 to focus on women's health in midlife. Membership covers a long annual exam and a schedule of follow-up visits, with a lot of care happening by phone, text, email and video in between. Health coaching, nutrition consults, fitness testing and stress management are folded into membership rather than billed on their own. Walkey was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020 and says it pushed her toward the prevention and lifestyle work she now does with patients. New members start with a free in-person meet and greet, and places are limited, so the practice adds people to a waiting list once it fills.
She is one of about fifteen clinicians at MaineHealth's Congress Street office in Portland, a hospital department that also houses maternal fetal medicine and used to be called MMP Women's Health. She sees patients at MaineHealth's Bramhall Street OB/GYN clinic on the same Portland campus as well. MaineHealth lists perimenopause and menopause treatment among the gynecology care these offices provide, so a menopause visit here sits inside general OB/GYN care rather than a separate menopause program. She finished her residency at Maine Medical Center and then went back for a public health degree at Harvard, and she now also covers MaineHealth's Pen Bay and Waldo hospitals up the coast. Visits are arranged by calling the office on weekdays, and MaineHealth patients use the MyChart portal for messages and bills. MaineHealth publishes no bio for her and says nothing about how she uses hormones, so her own approach is not described on the site.
Luke Roberts is an obstetrician and gynecologist in the MaineHealth group, which runs offices across Maine. He sees patients at the group's Portland office on Bramhall Street, listed as his primary office, and at its Scarborough office. The practice covers routine gynecology exams, preventive screening, birth control and sexual health, pregnancy and birth, and menopause and healthy aging. MaineHealth's menopause pages name both of the offices he works from and describe care for hot flashes, sleep trouble, mood changes and vaginal dryness. For hormone therapy the group describes estrogen, progesterone or a combination, weighs the risks with each patient, and advises the lowest effective dose. Bone loss after menopause is treated as part of the same care, and visits, messages and test results run through the MyChart patient portal.
