About Sutter East Bay Medical Group

Dr. Cohen is an OB-GYN with Sutter East Bay Medical Group, seeing patients at the Adeline Care Center in Berkeley and at a second office in Richmond. Her own philosophy of care names symptoms of menopause along with abnormal bleeding, fibroids, endometriosis and pregnancy care, so menopause sits inside a full obstetrics and gynecology practice rather than a dedicated menopause clinic. She directs the OB-GYN residency program at Alta Bates Summit Medical Center and is board certified in obesity medicine as well as obstetrics and gynecology, which is worth knowing if weight is part of what you want help with. Unusually for this health system, her own page publishes the list of plans she takes. Video visits are offered to existing patients only, so a first appointment has to be in person.
