Dana is a Doctor of Nursing Practice who focuses exclusively on perimenopause and menopause care. She became a Certified Menopause Expert because she saw too many women going without the specialized care they needed.
Her approach: listen first, understand the full picture, then build a treatment plan grounded in the latest evidence and designed for each individual.
Because coverage for menopause and midlife care differs between plans, please verify your benefits directly with your insurance provider.
A superbill can be provided after your visit for possible reimbursement if we are not in-network with your plan.
Yes. The initial consultation is completely free with no obligation. It's an opportunity to talk through symptoms, ask questions, and learn about options — with no commitment required.

There are effective non-hormonal options for managing symptoms like hot flashes, sleep disruption, and mood changes. Treatment plans are always based on individual preferences, health history, and comfort level.
All appointments happen over a secure video call. A link is provided before the appointment — no special apps needed. It works from a phone, tablet, or computer.
Many women aren't sure whether their symptoms are related to perimenopause, menopause, or something else entirely. That's one of the reasons the consultation exists — to help clarify what's going on and point in the right direction.
