"I have delivered thousands of babies during my 30+ year career. The process of bringing a baby into the world is such an awe-inspiring event, and I always felt so honored to be part of these joyous occasions in my patients' lives. I watched families grow, and even some of the daughters I delivered started coming to me before heading off to college.
But as my patients aged, so did I, and the focus of my practice shifted from babies to midlife concerns, perimenopause and menopause.
The issues that face midlife women are complex, and I want to have the time to address all facets of health at this time in a woman's life, something that cannot be done in the routine 15, or even 30-minute, well-woman exam.
That is why I started this practice, so that each of my patients gets the individualized, comprehensive, and compassionate care they deserve." ~Beverly Joyce, MD

What to expect:
Initial Consultation:
In this hour-long initial visit, we will review your history and current concerns. Then we will discuss the options and strategy, including, but not limited to, hormone therapy. We will also touch on nutrition, sleep, exercise, and supplements. Labs and imaging may be ordered.
This is a chance for you to feel fully heard and bring all your concerns to the table. I want to partner with you to find the best course of action for you!
Before we close, we will set the priorities for the follow-up visits and schedule them.
Follow-up visits:
The 30-minute follow-up visits are to review your symptoms and see how the strategy is working for you.
If there are side effects or other concerns, we will address them and possibly tweak your regimen.
If labs or imaging were ordered, we will review them.
If there are additional concerns to address, we will start addressing those too.
