About Gail Zimmerman, MD
Dr. Zimmerman is a board-certified internist with a small private practice in Bay Head, where she sees adults for primary care as well as menopause. She uses bioidentical hormones when hormone therapy is a good fit and prescribes non-hormonal options when it is not. Before recommending anything she goes through your medical and family history, with close attention to osteoporosis, breast cancer and heart disease risk. She worked as a psychiatric social worker before medicine and still manages psychiatric medication, so she can treat mood and anxiety alongside hormones. She books longer visits than most offices on purpose. New patients request a visit through an online form, and staff confirm it by phone.
