A doctor who's been
on both sides.
I spent twenty-five years as a physician before menopause taught me what medical school never did.
I was in my late forties, mid-consultation with a patient in Dubai, where I served as a medical director, when the first hot flash hit. I had built a career across continents. I had treated thousands of women. I was not, by any measure, medically uninformed.

Whole Body Menopause Care
Your cardiovascular system, your brain, your bones, your metabolism, your sleep — menopause affects all of it. I assess and treat the whole picture, not just the symptoms that brought you in.
Precision Medicine
Your genetics, your biomarkers, your history, your goals. Cookie-cutter protocols fail because no two women experience menopause the same way. Your care plan should be as individual as your biology.
The Long Game
Menopause isn't an event — it's the doorway to the next thirty years. I help you build the foundation for cardiovascular health, bone density, cognitive vitality, and metabolic strength that lasts.
