About Female Focused

Female Focused is a telehealth-only practice started by four friends, and Dr. Bernstein-Lawler is one of the founders. New patients begin with a long video visit and then follow up every four weeks to three months, depending on what is being treated. There is a separate visit for cancer survivors who want to explore hormone or non-hormonal options based on their cancer history. The founders say they share a commitment to breast cancer survivorship. The practice does not offer hormone pellets because it says the FDA has not approved them. Everything is virtual with no physical exams, so you are expected to keep your own primary care doctor and gynecologist.
