Menopause Specialists Who Accept Insurance in New York
349 practitioners have an office in New York, and 126 more can see patients here by telehealth. 329 of them are certified by the Menopause Society, and the most are in New York, Rochester and Brooklyn.
Angela Glasnapp leads Prime Women's Health and Wellness, a menopause program housed inside the New York Bariatric Group. She is a board certified bariatric surgeon and obesity medicine specialist who went on to become a certified menopause practitioner, so one doctor handles both the hormone side and the weight side of midlife. Care runs as a yearly concierge membership with extended visits, priority scheduling, and direct access to her by portal, text or email between appointments. She prescribes systemic and vaginal hormone therapy as well as non hormonal options, and will add a GLP-1 medication to a midlife plan when it fits. Visits happen in person at a few New York and New Jersey offices or by video for patients in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.

Toun Sogbein is a women's health nurse practitioner with Visana Health, a women's health practice that works entirely by video out of Minneapolis. She handles menopause and perimenopause along with the gynecological and sexual health problems that often sit alongside them, and she came to this work from public health clinics and a community health degree. First visits run 45 minutes, and patients stay with the same provider and can message the care team through the patient portal between visits. Visana's menopause care follows protocols written by Dr. Barbara Levy, and a patient can go the hormone route or a non-hormonal one after talking it through. Labs and imaging get ordered near home when they are needed, and optional health coaching covers food and exercise for anyone who wants that support. Many patients reach Visana through an employer or health plan, and the site has a start page where you look up yours.
A virtual women's specialty care platform for complex hormonal, metabolic and gynecological conditions, where menopause and perimenopause sit alongside PCOS, endometriosis, thyroid disease, fibroids and primary ovarian insufficiency. Each patient is assigned one medical provider, either an obstetrician-gynecologist, an endocrinologist or a women's health nurse practitioner, plus a registered dietitian, and stays with both. Care starts with a 30-minute medical visit and a 45-minute nutrition visit, broad hormonal and metabolic labs, then check-ins every week or two. Prescribing is optional and patient-directed, covering transdermal and oral estradiol, micronized progesterone, a non-hormonal drug for hot flashes, weight medication and thyroid replacement, and a separate arm ships custom-compounded medication to patients.
Capital Region Women's Care is a gynecology only practice with offices in Troy and Clifton Park and a team of five clinicians. Its services list includes menopause care alongside annual exams, ultrasound, contraception and in office procedures, though no page describes which hormone treatments are offered. Dr. Bloss is the practice's surgeon and performs robotic and laparoscopic hysterectomy, fibroid removal, ovary removal and endometriosis surgery. He has a particular interest in chronic pelvic pain and belongs to the International Pelvic Pain Society. His bio says the births of his six children shaped how he practices and that he spends a lot of time talking things through with patients. Current patients can book annual exams, problem visits and injections online, but new patients still have to call the office to get established.
Dr. Kurss is an OB-GYN at Invision Health, a large multi-specialty group in Williamsville outside Buffalo. Its doctors in neurology, pain, primary care, physical therapy and other fields all share one medical record. He does some gynecologic procedures in the office, such as endometrial ablation for heavy periods, so patients can skip a hospital stay. He teaches residents as a clinical assistant professor at the University at Buffalo. His practice bio doesn't mention hormone therapy directly, though the group's other OB-GYNs list menopause care. New patients book through the main scheduling line.
Greece OB/GYN is a long-established Rochester-area obstetrics and gynecology group of four physicians plus a PA and an LPN, caring for women from puberty through menopause out of one suburban office built in 2019. Alongside routine gyn and obstetric care it runs a urogynecology arm with urodynamic testing, pessary management, bladder instillations, post-tibial nerve stimulation and bladder Botox, and does office-based procedures including hysteroscopy, colposcopy, LEEP and endometrial biopsy. It says it was the first practice in the greater Rochester area to offer ThermiVa, a non-hormonal radiofrequency treatment for vaginal dryness, painful intercourse and urinary incontinence. Dr. Hunse's listed professional interests are pre-conception and prenatal care, family planning, infertility, menopause, and minimally invasive surgery including robotic procedures.
Tiffani Hughson is a certified nurse midwife at Maiden Lane Medical, a large multi-specialty practice in lower Manhattan. Her practice profile lists her as a telemedicine provider, so visits with her are virtual for patients in New York. She trained in full-scope obstetrics and gynecology and now focuses on perimenopause, menopause and women's sexual health. She manages hormone therapy alongside routine gynecologic care. The practice offers oral and transdermal hormone therapy, vaginal estrogen and DHEA, and non-hormonal medicines. Visits are booked online through the practice's 24/7 telemedicine scheduler.
Trust Women's Healthcare is a women's health practice with offices in Brooklyn and in Deer Park on Long Island. Menopause care sits alongside PCOS, routine gynecology, sexual health and pregnancy care, and for menopause the practice names hormone therapy, non-hormonal prescriptions and treatment for vaginal dryness as its options. It was founded by a nurse practitioner who built it for women who get brushed off elsewhere, especially women of color, and it runs on insurance rather than out of pocket payment. Keavern Kirby earned her master's in women's health at SUNY Downstate and her own stated focus is gynecology, menstrual cycle disorders and pelvic pain. The office is open six days a week with evening hours most weekdays and Saturday mornings, and new patients pick their own slot through the online scheduler. There is also a medically supervised weight loss program that can include prescription medication.
Faubion is an internist at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville and sees patients through its Women's Health Specialty Clinic. She founded and directs the Mayo Clinic Center for Women's Health, and every condition listed on her own clinical page is a menopause or female sexual health one, so midlife care is the whole of her practice. The clinic runs two routes for a new patient, a menopause consultation that covers natural, surgical and cancer treatment induced menopause as well as primary ovarian insufficiency, and a sexual health consultation for low libido and painful sex. Her page says she helps women work through hormone therapy and understand their options. Appointments go through Mayo's central request process, which in most cases needs no referral, and established patients message her team through the Mayo patient portal. She also practices at Mayo's Rochester campus, and away from work she grows orchids and cooks.
Mulberry OBGYN is a solo practice on Centre Street in Lower Manhattan, started by Dr. Nyein so that patients see the same physician at every visit. Perimenopause and menopause are the center of the practice, alongside sexual health, surgical gynecology and a concierge pregnancy program. He begins with a long history of cycles and symptoms rather than a single blood test, and uses labs and imaging only where they add something. For hormones he favors regulated FDA-approved preparations and advises against compounded protocols and pellets, and he will consider testosterone only for diagnosed low desire. Because he is also a minimally invasive and robotic surgeon, he can work up abnormal bleeding in his own office with ultrasound, endometrial sampling or hysteroscopy. He is an osteopathic physician who offers hands-on osteopathic manipulative treatment to some patients, and he is the next generation of a family that has cared for women in New York for more than fifty years.
Kostant is one of several gynecologists at Carnegie Women's Health, the gynecology office of a high risk pregnancy group called Maternal Fetal Medicine Associates on the Upper East Side. Her own page says she handles annual exams, pregnancy planning and perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms, and that she does office and outpatient surgery herself. The practice describes menopause care as starting with blood work to check hormone levels, then choosing between hormone therapy with estrogen and progesterone or a low dose antidepressant. Carnegie also does BioTE hormone pellets, but the site names two other doctors with that service rather than her. Visits are requested through a form on the site, and you pick either the office or a Zoom appointment when you fill it in. Because the group's main business is high risk obstetrics, midlife care sits in the same office as genetic cancer screening and a nutritionist.
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.
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.
