Your Midi clinician will use this time to get to know you, your symptoms, your full health history and your personal health goals.

Your Midi clinician will work with you to make sure you’re up to date on your in-person care, including Paps and mammograms. If you need testing, we’ll direct you to a facility in the Bakersfield area that’s convenient for you. For bloodwork, Midi generally uses Labcorp because it has a vast network of drop-in locations, but we can order tests elsewhere if you prefer. Just let us know in your health questionnaire if there’s a specific facility you’d like us to use.

Once your tests are completed, your clinician will review your results and make changes to your Care Plan if needed. We will reach out to you if it’s necessary to talk through your results in a follow-up visit.

Yes! Midi believes in individualized care, so we recommend treatments based on your symptoms, your unique medical history, and your personal approach to health. Not every woman should take hormone replacement therapy (HRT), or wants to, so we draw from the full range of alternative solutions. We may recommend non-hormonal medications, supplements and botanicals, and/or wellness therapies (eg, acupuncture, cognitive behavior therapy, yoga), instead of HRT or alongside it. We also coach you on simple but effective lifestyle shifts around sleep, mindfulness, nutrition, and exercise. Finally, we consider a variety of safe and effective non-hormonal prescription medications which can bring relief without HRT.

Yes, the hormones Midi prescribes are bioidentical, which means they have the same chemical and molecular structure as hormones that are produced in the human body. We choose from a range of FDA-approved preparations that are “bioidentical” including pills, patches, and vaginal formulations.

Midi suggests that you contact your insurance provider at the number on the back of your insurance card, to get the full picture of what your coverage is for menopause care, whether there will be copays, and what your own financial responsibility will be.
