You have created A Woman's Place Medical Center in Healdsburg, California.  Can you describe A Woman's Place- what it offers, the philosophy,  and what kind of woman comes to your medical center?  What was your inspiration for A Woman's Place?

The inspiration for A Woman's Place came about because we were aware of how dissatisfied women were with their perimenopause and menopause care.

Currently we are trying to reach physicians, pharmacists and the public with the message of the importance of considering a woman's complete health picture before automatically deciding on hormone replacement.  We are also encouraging increasing regard of natural approaches as viable, safe options to good health at midlife.

Besides speaking, we are executive editors of a newsletter, H.O.W. Health Opportunities for Women. (877-547-5499)

Selecting Over-the-Counter Products
Dr Carolle Jean-Murat, author of Menopause Made Easy comments on selecting over-the-counter medications and supplements and says, "There are many brands of herbal medications on the market. Because they are classified as a food, they are not regulated. Over-the-counter herbs and supplements lack quality control of content. There is usually a batch-to-batch variation."
