What is perimenopause?
Perimenopause begins for many women in their early 40s — sometimes earlier — and is often dismissed as stress or aging. The symptom pattern is real and treatable: changing cycles, sleep disruption, mood fluctuation, cognitive fog, and metabolic shifts.
How long does treatment last?
It depends on the condition and how you respond. Many patients see meaningful improvement within 4-8 weeks; chronic conditions may require ongoing management. We set clear expectations at the first visit.
Are same-day appointments available?
Yes — subject to scheduling. Call (305) 209-0001 or book online to confirm.
Can I continue care by telehealth?
Yes, for most follow-ups. The first visit is usually in-person for a complete exam; medication adjustments and lab reviews work well by telehealth.
