“THE COLLABORATIVE”


Book Now


TAKING CARE OF WOMEN IS OUR PASSION.

We are now accepting patients into the Health by Heather Hirsch MD
Collaborative’s practice, a private telemedicine practice of clinicians trained
under Heather Hirsch MD. We are now in 23 U.S. states and growing rapidly!

Our team is on a mission to empower women in midlife so that they are equipped
with real, science-backed advice on menopause and perimenopause. Using the main
principle of shared decision-making, we listen carefully to your medical
history, current symptoms, and health goals to provide you with therapeutic
options and ultimately a plan of action! 

Because the well-trained clinicians at The Collaborative also want you to be
empowered and educated, all new patients receive a complimentary copy of Dr.
Hirsch’s Reclaiming Menopause Master Class. There is no one-size-fits-all
approach to menopause, and plans can change with you. Menopause is hard, but it
doesn’t have to be that hard. 


WHY CHOOSE THE HEALTH BY HEATHER HIRSCH MD COLLABORATIVE?



EXPERTISE YOU CAN TRUST: Led by renowned menopause specialist Dr. Heather
Hirsch, our collaborative brings together an incredible team of expertly trained
healthcare professionals committed to guiding you through every aspect of
perimenopause and menopause. No crazy gurus here.

COMPREHENSIVE MENOPAUSE CARE: We know our stuff. You won’t be dismissed because
of your age, your lack of hot flashes, your “unrelated” symptoms, or given an
unrelated medication that doesn’t work for you… did we miss anything? You won’t
be dismissed.

INNOVATIVE EMPOWERMENT: We stay at the forefront of medical advancements to
provide you with the best possible solutions and share that knowledge with you.
Every patient gets a copy of Dr. Hirsch’s Reclaiming Menopause Masterclass.
You’ll be empowered with information and resources to make informed decisions
about your midlife health.

PRIVATE FACEBOOK COMMUNITY: At The Collaborative, we also know that community is
crucial. No one should have to face midlife alone! Our private Facebook group
provides not only that much-needed community but twice monthly live events from
allied healthcare providers and Dr. Hirsch herself! Access is only for patients!

FAQS


IS THERE AN IN-PERSON OPTION?

You can schedule to see Dr. Hirsch in person in her NYC office, where she sees
patients a few days each month.


WHAT DO WE SEE PATIENTS FOR?

All your ‘hormonal havoc concerns,” including premenstrual dysphoric disorder
(PMDD), perimenopause, menopause, post-menopause, hormone therapy, sexual
health, and post-menopausal concerns like bone health, fatigue, and weight
challenges.

How does it work? New patient visits are 60 minutes in length. After
registering, you will receive an intake form to complete that is reviewed before
your visit. You will also receive a free copy of Dr.Hirsch’s course covering
perimenopause and menopause. Together, we decide on your diagnosis and order any
necessary testing, lab work, and prescriptions (including HRT) that can be sent
to your local pharmacy. A lot of shared decision-making is done along the way.
We work right alongside your primary care doctor and gynecologist as needed.


SPEAKING OF HRT- WHAT DO YOU PRESCRIBE?

We prescribe FDA-approved hormone replacement therapy (HRT) that can be sent
right to your local commercial pharmacy that is covered by your insurance or
available economically!


PRICING: HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

Pricing is as follows:

New telemedicine patient with Dr. Hirsch $1050
Follow-up telemedicine visits with Dr. Hirsch $500

In-person NYC new patient with Dr. Hirsch $1450
Follow up in person in NYC with Dr. Hirsch $700

New patient visits with Collaborative Physician MD/DOs (state dependent) $700
Follow-up patient visits with Collaborative Physician MD/DOs (state dependent)
$350

New patient visits with Nurse Practitioners (state dependent) $500
Follow-up patient visits with Nurse Practitioners (state dependent) $250

We would love to see you as a patient for you to get the answers and relief you
need and deserve.

We don’t take insurance, but we can make you a ‘Superbill’ that you can self
submit for partial or full reimbursement from your insurance company. You can
also use FSA/HSA funds if applicable..


WHAT STATES DO YOU SERVE?

Are we not in your state yet? Stay tuned by joining my email list.

You can also book to see Dr. Hirsch in person in her NYC office, where she sees
patients a few days each month.


WHAT CAN WE NOT DO?

We cannot serve as your primary care clinician. And, since we are virtual, we
cannot do physicals, pelvic exams, pap smears, or procedures. However, your
local clinicians can certainly continue to help with these in-office tests.


HOW DOES IT WORK?

New patient visits are 60 minutes in length. We usually schedule a follow-up in
2-3 months and see you every 2-3 months until you feel amazing!
Follow-up visits are usually 30 minutes in duration.

We always answer your quick questions between visits as well!

We welcome working with your primary health care team or gynecologist as needed.


HOW DO I TAKE NOTES? DO I DO REFILLS OR PRESCRIPTIONS OR ANSWER QUESTIONS?

We use an electronic medical record system (called Avon) that many clinicians
also have access to (meaning that your team of doctors is likely able to access
my notes electronically).


DO YOU TAKE INSURANCE?

We do not. However, you can easily access a super-bill after your visit. This is
essentially a medical receipt that you can submit to your insurance for possible
reimbursement. You can also use an HSA if you have one to cover your visit.


WHAT IS YOUR CANCELLATION POLICY?

We get it – plans change. If you need to cancel your appointment, we’ve got you
covered:

 * Cancellation: You must cancel your appointment at least 3 days before the
   scheduled appointment to receive a 50% refund of your consultation fee. The
   other 50% can be used for credit towards a future appointment for up to one
   year for the same individual.

 * Reschedule: If the appointment is rescheduled more than 3 days of the
   appointment, there is no cost.

 * Late Cancellations (within 3 days of the appointment) will not be refunded.

 * Conditions Apply: Refunds and credits are subject to meeting cancellation
   criteria.

being offered several potential approaches/options. In addition to receiving
expert advice and guidance, I felt like a true partner in my care. I also
appreciate Dr. Hirsch’s energy and enthusiasm for her work. It makes “treating a
problem” feel more like simply taking positive action for better health.

When I got off the call, I cried telling my husband about it. In a year and a
half of struggling, no one has looked at me as holistically or with more

might be able to feel good and thrive again.
