Amber Dortch, MSN, APRN, FNP-C

Finding my purpose in women’s health: “I’ve been a Registered Nurse for 20 years, spending 15 of them in the emergency department as a trauma nurse. After becoming a Nurse Practitioner, I worked in mental health, pain management, and primary care, where I saw just how many women struggled with perimenopause symptoms without real support. I realized this was a huge gap that I couldn’t address properly in primary care, which is what led me to Midi.”

I’ve been in your shoes: “My passion for menopause care started with my own experience. I had the fatigue, weight gain, sleepless nights—none of which improved with diet, exercise, or supplements. When I sought help, I was dismissed, told to ‘eat less and move more.’ As a practitioner, I lead with kindness, knowing firsthand how frustrating and isolating this journey can feel.”

Getting to the root of the problem: “For years in primary care and pain management, I felt like I was just handing out dollar store band-aids—temporary fixes that never addressed the real issue. That’s why I love this work. With the right treatment, women can sleep, have energy, and feel like themselves again. You don’t have to settle for feeling awful.”
