Women’s Midlife Health Center
At the Women’s Midlife Health Center, we provide gender-based consultative service to improve the overall health care of women facing complex medical and gynecologic problems in midlife. Our specialists work closely with referring physicians to coordinate services and provide recommendations for care.
Our experienced core group of clinicians, practicing in gynecology, internal medicine, reproductive endocrinology, and integrative medicine, will enable you to access a multidisciplinary team of experts here at Magee-Womens Hospital of UPMC. We have established relationships with physicians in a wide range of specialties, including digestion, bladder function, cancer, and heart disease.
Our women’s health specialists work together to offer consultation, diagnostic testing, and support services for perimenopausal and menopausal women. Because our experts share resources, research, and expertise, you not only benefit from their collaboration, you can be confident they are caring for nearly every aspect of your health—all in one place.
