About Newton-Wellesley OB/GYN
Newton-Wellesley OB/GYN is a long-running obstetrics and gynecology group with offices in Newton, Wellesley and Walpole, and it is affiliated with Newton-Wellesley Hospital. Dr. Erisson joined in 2019 after training in Israel and New York and teaching at Northwell for three years. She still does obstetrics and minimally invasive surgery, so menopause care here sits inside a regular gynecology practice rather than a standalone menopause clinic. The practice describes ordinary prescription menopause care, including hormone therapy, vaginal estrogen cream and low dose antidepressants, and says nothing about compounded hormones or pellets. Appointments run through an online request form where you can ask for her by name, and the office keeps same day slots for patients who are having problems. Lab work and ultrasound are done on site and messaging goes through the patient portal.
