Rewriting the narrative of women’s health
For decades, I've been deeply immersed in the world of women's healthcare. From practicing reproductive health to menopausal care, my journey has been one of learning, growth, and transformation. Along the way, it became clear to me that women need more than just medical treatment—they need to be listened to, and understood.
During my 15 year tenure at Bellevue Medical Center, I had the privilege of providing comprehensive care to women of all ages and backgrounds. And I learned that conventional medicine, while essential, often falls short in truly addressing women's needs. So I began to explore alternative approaches and healing modalities.
Through a fellowship in Integrative Medicine with Dr. Andrew Weil, where I explored the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit, plus additional studies in Functional Medicine, I discovered a new perspective on health and wellness—one that considers the whole person and root causes, not just the symptoms.

a path to healing
As I navigated my own perimenopause journey, it was a time marked by personal challenges including the death of my father, a temporary cross-country move and parenting three young children. Personally and professionally, I gained a deeper understanding of the unique challenges women face during this phase of life.
I saw the importance of addressing hormonal health from a holistic perspective and discovered more about the intricate connections between hormonal imbalances and chronic illness in women.
Traditional approaches are falling short in addressing hormonal imbalances and their impact on overall health. This is why I'm so dedicated to guiding women through this journey with compassion and expertise, guided by functional medicine principles.
The decision to start my own practice was born out of a desire to provide personalized, holistic care to women in a way that wasn't readily available. In 2018, I took the leap and haven't looked back. Whether you're struggling with hormonal imbalances, mood or sleep disturbances, or chronic symptoms, we're here to guide you through this transformative time. And to help you reclaim control over your health and vitality through comprehensive testing and targeted interventions tailored to your unique needs and experiences.

“She always asks the right questions and puts all of the pieces together to get me feeling my best. When I first started seeing Marilynn, I was struggling with psoriatic arthritis and poor sleep due to hip pain, but I didn’t want to take medication. Within a few weeks of seeing her, all of my pain was gone and I was sleeping through the night pain-free. Without meds!”
