About Helia Health

Helia Health is a small menopause practice in Cornelius that Dr. Haddad founded, and she also sees patients across North Carolina by video. Care runs on an annual membership. New patients start with a nurse visit and then a 60-minute consultation, and after that they can message the team between visits. She prescribes FDA-approved hormone therapy and non-hormonal options, but she does not use hormone pellets or injectable hormones. The practice takes on complex cases, including women with a history of breast or gynecologic cancer, BRCA carriers, early or surgical menopause, and conditions like POTS. It does not do annual gyn exams, so you keep your own gynecologist for breast and pelvic exams. It is currently accepting a small number of new patients.
