How To Find The Right Menopause Provider For You?

‍

If you go to Google and type “menopause doctor” or “menopause clinic”, you’ll immediately get hundreds of results back at you. 

‍

While it’s amazing to have more options available than ever before, there’s a new challenge: not all providers are created equal. With so many new voices entering the space, how can you be sure you're getting evidence-based care and good information?

‍

The First Thing We Look For In a Provider

‍

Our first recommendation is simple: check The Menopause Society's provider directory. 

‍

Physicians and providers listed there have completed certification and passed a basic evaluation. It's not the only measure that matters, but it's the only common, objective standard to verify that a provider knows the fundamentals of menopause medicine.  

‍

That being said though, this is just our first filter — there are still more factors to take into consideration when choosing a provider.

‍

What Else Distinguishes an Expert Menopause Clinic?

‍

Focused Experience and Specialization

‍

Experience matters enormously, and so does concentration of practice. We've deliberately focused our menopause clinic to see primarily perimenopause and menopausal patients. We dedicate time to conferences, continuing education, and delivering lectures on menopause care. This specialization means we stay current with the latest research and can address complex cases with confidence.

‍

Comprehensive, Evidence-Based Treatment

‍

As menopause physicians, we can do more than simply prescribe hormones. We treat the full spectrum of what makes a woman: we evaluate pelvic ultrasounds, interpret labs, manage cardiovascular risk, address bone health, and understand the interconnected nature of midlife health changes. 

‍

We also know when something falls beyond our expertise—and we're not afraid to refer to specialists when patients need that care.

‍

Collaborative, Patient-Centered Approach

‍

Your menopause care deserves a team effort. Our physicians can call specialists to discuss findings on your behalf. We look at the complete picture of your health, not just isolated symptoms. 

‍

We believe the best menopause provider for you is one who takes time to hear your story, understands your concerns, and respects that you're also juggling work, mothering, traveling, and living your life.
