Dr. Frisch is an endocrinologist in Ridgewood who treats perimenopause and menopause alongside thyroid, diabetes and weight problems. She is also board certified in obesity medicine, and before medical school she worked at Merck researching estrogen receptors. It is a small practice that books long visits, and patients can reach their doctor directly by phone and email. The first visit is in person, and some follow-ups can be done by video. She checks bone health as part of menopause care and treats osteoporosis when needed. She speaks Spanish and Hungarian.
Barbara Dougherty is a nurse practitioner at YoungerMeMD, a hormone and longevity practice in Conshohocken. The monthly membership is charged on top of the cost of treatment and does not include medication. The intake fee covers baseline lab work, which is drawn at Quest only and needs 8 to 12 hours of fasting. Beyond hormone care the practice also offers peptides, low dose naltrexone and rapamycin.
Mercedes Deal founded Rêver Wellness, a private-pay clinic in Coral Gables that blends hormone care with skin treatments and weight care. Hormone therapy there is only available through a paid membership, and the tiers that include it also cover follow-up visits and lab work. Care starts with baseline labs and a first visit of about two hours, then labs are repeated every three months while the plan is adjusted. She prescribes bioidentical estradiol, progesterone and testosterone for women in perimenopause and menopause. She is a family nurse practitioner with extra training in functional medicine and peptide therapy, and the clinic also runs a thyroid and adrenal workup. New patients start with an intake questionnaire and a member of the team replies within a day or two.
This is a small concierge practice built around long, unhurried visits and a low number of patients. Dr. Greenwald focuses on perimenopause and menopause, hormone therapy and sexual health. She trained at UCSF, built her practice with Stanford Health Care, still teaches there and works on the obstetrics side at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center several days a month. Care runs through a membership, and visits can be in person or by video. She is not taking new patients right now. Two colleagues in the same practice, Dr. Nazaneen Homaifar and Dr. Sarah Isquick, are certified menopause providers and are taking new members.
SPOKEmed is Michelle Middleton's own telemedicine practice, which she founded in 2024 after years in orthopedics and a move into weight and hormone care in 2020. She is the only clinician there, so every consultation and treatment plan is hers, and patients can reach her directly between visits. Care starts with a short exploration call, then lab work and a plan that may mix hormone therapy, weight medication, nutrition and coaching. She prefers FDA-approved bioidentical estrogen, progesterone and testosterone, keeps compounded troches and creams for the cases where nothing commercial fits, and refuses pellets because the dose cannot be adjusted or removed. Advanced testing such as DUTCH hormone panels, stool analysis and genetic reports is available when symptoms are confusing, though she says most women can start hormone therapy on symptoms and history alone. Prescription care runs in Florida and New York, while the coaching side is open to women anywhere in the country.
Greece OB/GYN is a small, long-running practice on the west side of Rochester with four physicians, a physician assistant and a nurse. Tariq-Fazili trained in obstetrics and gynecology in Rochester and joined the practice after residency, and her own bio names menopause as one of her professional interests along with adolescent gynecology and minimally invasive robotic surgery. It is a conventional insurance-based office, so you call during set phone hours to book and bring the downloadable new-patient forms with you. Gynecology care covers menopausal transitions and office procedures such as hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy, and the practice also runs a urogynecology service for bladder and prolapse problems. The site does not say which hormone treatments she uses, and it never mentions virtual visits. She and her husband live in Rochester with their daughter and two sons.
Dr. Goodstein is a gynecologist at Carnegie Hill OB/GYN, a small group of women doctors on the Upper East Side. She sees patients from their teens through menopause and lists hormone therapy and irregular bleeding among her areas of expertise. She is also trained in CO2 laser treatment of the vulva and vagina. The first visit is unhurried, with a full history and a sit-down talk with the doctor after the exam. She has been in practice since 2000 and still delivers babies at Mount Sinai.
Elizabeth Swenson is a board certified obstetrician gynecologist certified by the Menopause Society. Her listing points to Gennev, a national telehealth menopause service that bills insurance and also publishes self pay rates. Gennev does not name her anywhere. Its Our Providers page lists thirty six doctors and she is not among them, the site search returns no result for her, and no bio page exists for her while other clinicians' bios load normally. No other current practice could be found for her.
Rhonda Gottmann is a women's health nurse practitioner certified by the Menopause Society. Her listing points to Midi Health, a virtual menopause clinic that sees patients by video only and refers out for anything needing an in person exam. Her registry record lists five Midi locations across New York, Kentucky, Florida, Ohio and Arizona, all sharing the company's single phone line. Midi does not currently name her anywhere on its site. Her bio page there returns a not found error and she is absent from the clinician directory, and no other current practice could be found for her.
