About UC Medical Center Obstetrics and Gynecology at West Chester South Medical Office

Dr. Fermann is a gynecologist with UC Health, the University of Cincinnati academic health system, and sees adults at its West Chester South medical office. Her own profile lists menopause, perimenopause and hot flashes among her clinical interests, alongside general gynecology. She also names primary ovarian insufficiency, pelvic pain and vulvar pain, which makes her a sensible choice for women with early menopause or painful sex. Care runs through a large hospital system that bills insurance, so this is regular office gynecology and not a stand-alone menopause program. New patients book by calling the office. She also teaches as volunteer faculty at the UC College of Medicine.
