Tired of Feeling “Not Like Yourself”? 

It’s Not All in Your Head. 

Maybe It’s Your Hormones.

 

Expert care + education for perimenopause & menopause relief in North Carolina

 

We’re Building Something Special. Join Us First.
Women in various situations can't sleep, in an argument, sad looking, having a hot flash

You’re not crazy.

You’re not broken.

It might be perimenopause.

 

Let’s be honest. You didn’t expect midlife to come with hot flashes, brain fog, and spontaneous rage at your spouse for chewing too loudly.

But here you are. Exhausted. Frustrated. Maybe even a little scared.
You’re doing your best, but something feels... off. And no one seems to be giving you real answers.

We’re here to change that. 

Are you experiencing:

✔️ Brain Fog
✔️ Weight Gain
✔️ Can't go to sleep or stay asleep
✔️ Mood Swings
✔️ Low Libido
✔️ Night Sweats
✔️ Sore Joints
✔️ “You’ve changed” (thanks, family 🙄)

The truth? You’re likely going through perimenopause. Or you may be in menopause. Your body is begging for the kind of care most doctors aren’t trained to provide.

That’s where we come in.

We’re Not Just Doctors-We’re Hot (Flash) Women™ Too.

As physicians navigating midlife ourselves, we know firsthand the some of the challenges of perimenopause: the sleep disturbances, brain fog (forgetting names is the worst!), and the weird joint pains. And just like you, that's on top of kids, spouse, parents, pets, work, etc. etc. 

That's why we've created a space where your symptoms are taken seriously, your concerns are met with compassion, and your care is tailored just for you.

You don’t have to settle for feeling "off" when real relief is possible. We can help you reclaim your energy and confidence.

Here’s What’s Inside the Hot (Flash) Women™ Experience

This is a 12-week tailored program for women in North Carolina that blends virtual medical care with coaching and community. Because you don't need to "tough it out" alone.

Our Patients Say It Best

 
"Doctor Gonzalez has always been so good about being aware of all the medical issues in my body. I know that this is because she realizes that there is a human being who needs help and not just a number. I can’t say enough about this practice, if you are trying to decide if they are worthy the money…THEY ARE!!!" --VP
