Katherine R. Behning

Kate Behning runs a solo gynecology practice in downtown Seattle that she opened after leaving a healthcare corporation over its limits on abortion care. She has held Menopause Society certification since 2013 and follows its guidance closely, so she prescribes standard hormone therapy but not compounded hormones or pellets. Visits happen in her office or virtually by video, phone or portal message. She is not a primary care provider and asks patients to keep one for non-gynecologic care and routine screening labs. A longer menopause consultation can be added to an annual exam but is billed as a separate visit. She describes her style as plain explanations with no upselling of trendy hormone treatments.
