Gliss Wellness is a virtual-only OB/GYN practice Dr. Walsh co-founded with a second board-certified OB/GYN, and menopause care is its main focus. Care starts with a 30-minute video consultation about your symptoms, and if hormone therapy suits you, you leave with prescriptions for the first three months. A follow-up at three months keeps refills going for the rest of the year, and refills in between happen by message through the patient portal. There is no membership, and you fill prescriptions at your own pharmacy. The doctors can't examine you in person but can order labs and other tests. Dr. Walsh's own interests include pelvic pain, endometriosis, fibroids and weight loss, and a free 15-minute call lets you meet the team before booking.
Aimee Feste is a nurse midwife at MAHEC Ob/Gyn Specialists, an academic teaching practice in Asheville where Ob/Gyn residents train alongside the faculty. Her provider bio says she cares for women from their first period until after menopause, plus the health events in between. She also works in the practice's Center for Pelvic and Vulvar Health, which she joined in 2020 when a longtime colleague retired, and there she sees patients with vulvar skin conditions and genital pain. Vulvar clinic patients get a call from clinical staff in the month before a first visit to go over health history and what they want from the appointment. New gynecology patients fill out an intake packet for their office, and visits are booked by phone because MAHEC's online self-scheduling only covers its family medicine patients. MAHEC discounts care by family size and income for patients who cannot pay in full.
