About Northwestern OB.GYN Consultants

Dr. Solotke is a general OB-GYN in a six-doctor private group at Northwestern in downtown Chicago, and menopause is one part of a broad practice that also includes pregnancy, contraception and surgery. Visits are in person near Northwestern Memorial, and video visits are offered when the doctor thinks one is appropriate. He describes his approach as shared decision making built on education and honest conversation. He has worked in LGBTQ+ health since 2016 and provides gender-affirming hormone therapy. He also does minimally invasive and robotic surgery, which helps if bleeding or fibroids come up alongside menopause.
