Why I Chose a Direct Care Model for My Menopause Practice

Hi, it’s Dr. Christa Waymire! I’ve been getting a common question lately: Why don’t I take insurance in my menopause-focused practice? I’d love to share the reasoning behind this decision and how it benefits my patients.

Dr. Waymire, Menopause Care Specialist

In traditional healthcare, physicians often face time constraints due to the insurance model. That system limits my ability to deliver the thorough, personalized care you deserve. By adopting a direct care model, I’m able to focus entirely on you. This means no rushed appointments, no unnecessary lab tests, and no cookie-cutter treatment plans.

During your first visit, you’ll have a full hour with me to discuss your unique symptoms, goals, and questions. Together, we’ll craft a care plan tailored specifically to your needs. That level of individualized care simply isn’t possible within the confines of a traditional insurance-based system.

Some women wonder if this investment is worth it. I often ask them to consider what they spend on temporary self-care like hair appointments, massages, or pedicures. While those treatments can help you feel good in the moment, menopause care offers lasting benefits—not just for your mental and physical well-being now, but for your long-term health. Treatment can reduce the risk of heart disease, osteoporosis, and even dementia. In other words, prioritizing your menopause care is one of the best investments you can make for your health and future.

I’m here to help you thrive during this phase of life, and I would love the opportunity to guide you through it. If you have questions or want to learn more, feel free to reach out through my website or contact me directly via text 952-522-4565 or email at waymire@dragonflymenopausecare.com.

Let’s work together to help you feel your best and start living your best years now. I look forward to meeting you!

Warmly,

Dr. Christa Waymire
