About Peninsula Doctor

Peninsula Doctor is a small concierge family medicine practice in Menlo Park, and each physician there keeps a panel of about 100 patients. Dr. Kim is the clinician the practice names for perimenopause and menopause, and she works through hormone therapy options with women and handles the monitoring that follows. Her menopause care sits inside regular primary care, so one visit can cover bone density, heart risk and the weight and metabolism changes of midlife. Membership runs for a year and covers visits, in-office blood draws and most in-office lab work, plus twelve visits with the practice nutritionist. Members can reach their physician by phone, text or video, and the practice recommends coming into the office when an exam or testing would help. Two things to know before joining are that the practice does not prescribe ongoing controlled substances, and that anyone who is Medicare eligible signs a private Medicare contract to become a member.

Its physicians have opted out of Medicare, so a member who is Medicare eligible signs a private Medicare contract, and the practice recommends keeping health insurance for hospital, specialist, imaging and medication costs outside the office.
