Concierge primary care
Same-day access, 45-minute visits, one physician who knows your history
Women's health
The whole arc, from contraception through perimenopause and bone density, without changing practices.
Overview
Women's health at Aurelia is led by Dr. Priya Raghunathan, who trained in obstetrics and gynaecology before moving to primary care, so cervical screening, contraception, perimenopause and bone health are handled here rather than referred out.
Perimenopause in particular is a long conversation rather than a single appointment. We schedule it properly, because a symptom diary and a treatment trial take months, not minutes.
What is included
Well-woman visit
Cervical cytology with HPV co-testing, breast examination, and a review of screening due dates.
Contraception
Full range including IUD insertion and removal in clinic, with counselling on risk and side effects.
Perimenopause and menopause
Symptom mapping, discussion of hormone therapy risks and benefits, and non-hormonal options where preferred.
Bone health
DXA scanning, vitamin D and calcium assessment, and resistance training guidance.
Iron and thyroid
Ferritin and thyroid function are checked properly rather than assumed, because both mimic perimenopause.
Preconception counselling
Folate, rubella and varicella immunity, medication review and a referral pathway to obstetrics.
How it actually runs

Long first visit

Only what changes management: ferritin, TSH, vitamin D, and hormone levels where they genuinely inform a decision.
- 03
Shared decision
The evidence for and against hormone therapy in your specific circumstances, written down, not summarised verbally.
- 04
Trial and review
A defined trial period with a scheduled review, usually at 8 to 12 weeks.

Bone density interval, screening calendar and a plan for when treatment should be reassessed.

All questionsFor most healthy women within ten years of their final period, the benefit for symptoms and bone outweighs the risk. It depends on your history, and it is a conversation, not a policy.
Yes, generally until 65 with adequate prior screening. Your physician will confirm what applies to your history.
Yes, insertion and removal are done here, with proper analgesia and a 45-minute appointment rather than a rushed slot.
We do the initial assessment and then refer to a reproductive endocrinologist, staying involved in the coordination.
