Jennifer Ha runs the hormone and integrative medicine side of The Skin Clinic, a Houston practice otherwise known for injectables and laser work. She sees women in perimenopause and menopause, and she also manages thyroid and metabolic problems. Every plan starts with lab work, and the clinic says treatment is never prescribed on symptoms alone. She does the evaluation, prescribing and follow-up herself, and plans can include estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid medication or GLP-1 medication when the labs support it. She came to this field through her own health struggles and an interest in functional medicine. Patients often mention that she reads the intake forms closely and does not rush the visit.
Dr. Sims is a Houston OB-GYN who runs a perimenopause and menopause clinic inside her own practice. Most visits happen by video, and established patients can also be seen at her central Houston office. New patients start with a virtual visit that opens with a short group orientation and then moves to private time with her. She mixes standard hormone therapy with functional medicine, herbs and Ayurveda, and she also treats low testosterone in women and runs a medical weight loss program. She writes openly about her own autoimmune illness and losing 70 pounds, which is what pushed her toward this style of care. Her main practice bills insurance, and women outside her network can join a separate self-pay program built around labs and education modules.
