Helping Women Thrive Through Perimenopause and Beyond

Personalized, physician-led care for women navigating hormonal changes, weight shifts, fatigue, brain fog, and the transition into midlife - with a focus on thriving, not just surviving

Meet Dr Gaye

I was a physician—and I didn’t recognize my own perimenopause.


In my late 30s, I started feeling anxious, off, and disconnected from myself. I had the training. I had the experience. But no one had taught me what was happening to my body.


That moment changed everything.


Now, I help women navigate this phase with clarity, science, and support—so you don’t have to figure it out alone.


What Makes This Different

  • Physician-led, personalized care
  • Root-cause, functional medicine approach
  • Focus on healthspan—not just symptom relief
  • Ongoing support through a membership model
  • A safe space for women to feel heard, understood, and guided


Why a Subscription-Based Model

Think of your health like your car. Insurance  will cover the crash—but not the oil changes, tune-ups, or routine maintenance that help prevent it.


Traditional healthcare often waits for symptoms to appear. Our subscription-based model takes a different approach.


We focus on prevention, not reaction.


✅ What You Get:


  • Unlimited routine exams
  • Ongoing communication and guidance
  • Functional lab reviews
  • Personalized plans including nutrition, movement, hormones, and stress management
  • Long-term tracking and accountability


This is wellness as a partnership—not a transaction.

Women's Health Done Right

  • You Are In The Right Place If ...

    • You feel “off,” but your labs are “normal”
    • You’re gaining weight despite doing everything right
    • Your energy, sleep, or mood has changed
    • You’re experiencing brain fog, anxiety, or burnout
    • You’re in your late 30s, 40s, or 50s and wondering what’s happening to your body
    • You want to feel strong, confident, and in control again

    You’re not imagining it. And you’re not alone.


  • A Different Approach To Women's Health ...

    Most women are told their symptoms are “normal” or just part of aging.


    At Designed4Wellness, we take a different approach.


    We look at the whole picture—your hormones, metabolism, brain health, stress, sleep, and lifestyle—to understand what’s really happening in your body.


    Because midlife isn’t the beginning of decline. It’s an opportunity to rebuild, reset, and thrive.

How To Get Started ...

  • Step 1: Book A Discovery Call

    Start with a 20-minute discovery call to learn more about the practice and determine if this is the right fit for your needs.


    This is your opportunity to ask questions, share what you’re experiencing, and understand how we can help.



  • Step 2: Comprehensive Consultation

    If we agree we are a good fit from the Discovery Call, we’ll schedule a full consultation.


    During this visit, we will:

    • Take a deep dive into your symptoms and health history 
    • Perform a focused physical exam
    • Identify root causes and contributing factors
    • Order advanced labs tailored to your needs

  • Step 3: Personalized Plan

    Once your results are in, we’ll meet again to review everything in detail and create your personalized plan.


    This may include:

    • Hormone optimization
    • Nutrition and metabolic support
    • Lifestyle and stress strategies
    • Targeted therapies based on your results

  • Step 4: Ongoing Support & Optimization

    Your body is not static—and your care shouldn’t be either.


    Through ongoing follow-up and support, we adjust your plan as your body evolves, helping you feel better, stronger, and more in control over time.
