About The Endocrine Co.

Dr. Pauley is a pediatric endocrinologist who opened this direct-pay practice in 2023. Much of the clinic is growth and puberty care for children, and she also sees adults, so the menopause side is one part of a broad endocrine practice. Women come for perimenopause and menopause care that includes hormone therapy, and the practice also treats thyroid problems and runs a medically supervised weight program. The practice does not bill insurance for visits. New patients fill out an online request form, then the office calls to set up a one hour first visit. Some follow-ups are done by video. The menopause page names her nurse practitioner, Jennifer Delgado, as the clinician to work with, so a new patient may see either of them.
