Christina Kitchen runs a small self-pay practice in Jackson, working out of Expansion Health, and has cared for women's sexual and hormonal health for more than twenty years. She has a dedicated hour-long perimenopause and menopause consult that covers hormone and non-hormone treatments and plans labs as needed. Sexual health is a big part of her work. She has separate visits for low libido and pain with sex, and those visits also look at whether perimenopause is involved. Visits are deliberately long, and she also sees women for gynecologic exams, PCOS and metabolic health. An optional concierge membership adds same-day or next-day access for patients who want it.
Kim Mellick is a family nurse practitioner at a small two-provider family practice in Jackson that also does aesthetics. She sees women in perimenopause and menopause and also offers general primary care for adults, so one clinician can handle both. Visits are in person at the Maple Way office, and new patients call to book and bring intake forms to the first visit. Before this she spent years in orthopedics, urgent care and reproductive health. For more than a decade she has also worked at the county health department's sexual and reproductive health clinic, caring for people without insurance.
