About Hera Beauty & Wellness

Dr. Cernaianu is a board-certified OB/GYN who also holds board certification in anti-aging and integrative medicine, and she runs a concierge practice alongside a separate med spa. Hormone care is a core service, and she prescribes FDA-approved estrogen, progesterone and testosterone products as well as compounded creams and pellets. She is upfront about which routes insurance covers and which are paid out of pocket. Her site says hormone follow-ups run about three times a year, and she avoids writing a year of refills at once. She also evaluates thyroid and adrenal concerns and treats urinary incontinence. Her training began in Bucharest, and she was the first foreign medical graduate admitted to the LSU residency program.
