Serving Washington, DC · Telehealth across DC · In-person ~7 miles north in Kensington, MD
Gynecology & Women's Health Care for Washington, DC
Most of our DC patients see us by telehealth — gender-affirming hormone therapy, modern menopause care, birth control consults, refills, and follow-ups, all without the drive up Connecticut Ave.
For exams, IUD placements, and other in-office procedures, our Kensington office is just over the DC line — straight up Connecticut Ave NW.
How DC Patients See Us
Telehealth in DC for almost everything. We're licensed in DC and use telehealth as the default for DC patients — gender-affirming hormone therapy (initiation, dose adjustments, monitoring), menopause care and HRT, birth control consults, refills, follow-ups, and questions. No drive, no parking, no waiting room.
In-office for what actually needs an in-person visit. Annual exams, Pap smears, IUD placement and removal (with sedation), nexplanon, in-office procedures, and any visit where a physical exam matters. Our office is at 3720 Farragut Ave, Suite 202, Kensington, MD 20895 — about 7 miles north of upper NW DC, straight up Connecticut Ave NW (which becomes MD-185 at Chevy Chase Circle).
Driving: From upper NW DC (Friendship Heights, Tenleytown, Cleveland Park, Dupont area), Connecticut Ave is the most direct route — usually 20–30 minutes depending on time of day. From Capitol Hill or other quadrants, plan more time.
Parking: Free on-site lot at our office — no meters, no validation, no garage hunt.
Transit: The Red Line connects DC to our area, but the ride routes through downtown DC (Metro Center) and back up — from Dupont, ~30–40 minutes to the closest stations to our office (Wheaton or Twinbrook). Most DC patients who do come in person drive. For everything else, telehealth.
Why DC Patients Choose Us
DC has plenty of OB/GYNs. Here's what we hear most often from patients who switch to us — usually because they wanted telehealth that actually works, or care that didn't require coming out at every visit.
Telehealth that's a real first option, not an afterthought
Hormone therapy initiation and management, menopause care, refills, follow-ups, sensitive conversations — all by telehealth, with the same provider every time. The drive up only happens when a hands-on exam matters.
Queer-owned & gender-affirming
Gender-affirming hormone therapy, post-surgical care, fertility planning, and routine gynecology that doesn't make assumptions about your body, your partners, or your history.
Sedation for IUD insertion (and other procedures)
If you've had a rough placement before — or you're avoiding one because of what you've heard — we offer nitrous, oral sedation, IV sedation, cervical block, and TENS. Real comfort options, not 'take an Ibuprofen.'
Modern menopause & HRT care
FDA-approved bioidentical estradiol and micronized progesterone, current NAMS guidance, and we don't dismiss perimenopausal symptoms in your 40s as 'normal aging.'
Independent, not hospital-owned
We're not part of GW, MedStar Georgetown, Sibley, or Howard. Longer appointment slots, fewer system-mandated workflows, and the same provider visit after visit.
Same-week appointments are usually possible
Most patients with new symptoms can be seen within a week, not a month. We staff for accessibility on purpose.
What DC Patients Come To Us For
Most of these can start as a telehealth visit, with in-person follow-up only when needed.
Your First Visit
Book online or call
Same-week appointments are usually available, telehealth or in-office. If you're switching from a DC practice, you don't need to do anything — we'll request your records.
Intake from home
Forms are filled out through our portal before you arrive (or before your telehealth visit), so we're not eating the appointment with paperwork.
We actually talk
First visits are scheduled longer than a typical practice — same on telehealth as in person. We get history, walk through what's bothering you, and only do exams or procedures you've consented to.
Plan together
We discuss options — labs, imaging, medication, procedures — including what they cost and what your insurance covers. You decide what to do.
Follow-up that fits your life
Most follow-ups can stay telehealth. Refills go through the portal. You only come up to Kensington when something needs to be done in person.
Insurance & Cost
We accept CareFirst, Anthem, BCBS, Aetna, Cigna, and UHC — the major plans most DC patients carry. Annual preventive visits are covered with no out-of-pocket cost under the ACA. We do not accept Medicaid, Medicare, or Tricare.
Care That Comes To You
Book online — telehealth visits are usually available within a week, in-office within two. Same provider every time.
