Help! Perimenopause
Seeking doctor recommendation's for help with what I think is perimenopause. I had a wonderful Integrative medicine doctor before I moved to Oakland. I had Kaiser for years and years but now (unfortunately) have Cigna through my new job. So I’ve never had a private practice doctor in the East Bay. Oakland based, will travel for anyone recommended who can help! PMS has become a week long saga with despair and rage. Thank you!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE my doctor, Dr. Talia Gracer - https://www.johnmuirhealth.com/doctor/Talia-Gracer-MD/1659670024 . I don't know that she has a specialty in perimenopause but I know she got me through it. She really LISTENS. In fact, she saved my life two years ago when I was ignoring some symptoms.
I’m not sure if she focuses on perimenopause, but Dr Loharuka is an amazing OBGYN at Sutter Eden in Castro Valley. She has a very holistic approach to care. I also went to Oldershaw acupuncture in Oakland, they focus on fertility and women’s health. They don’t take insurance, but you could submit their invoices for reimbursement if this is part of your coverage. I didn’t have Cigna reject any invoices.
