About MaineHealth Obstetrics, Gynecology and Maternal-Fetal Medicine - Portland

She is one of about fifteen clinicians at MaineHealth's Congress Street office in Portland, a hospital department that also houses maternal fetal medicine and used to be called MMP Women's Health. She sees patients at MaineHealth's Bramhall Street OB/GYN clinic on the same Portland campus as well. MaineHealth lists perimenopause and menopause treatment among the gynecology care these offices provide, so a menopause visit here sits inside general OB/GYN care rather than a separate menopause program. She finished her residency at Maine Medical Center and then went back for a public health degree at Harvard, and she now also covers MaineHealth's Pen Bay and Waldo hospitals up the coast. Visits are arranged by calling the office on weekdays, and MaineHealth patients use the MyChart portal for messages and bills. MaineHealth publishes no bio for her and says nothing about how she uses hormones, so her own approach is not described on the site.
