A New Approach to Women’s Health: Introducing the Women’s Lifelong Health & Wellness Clinic
Have you reached a point in life when your body feels different—but you’re not sure why? Is sleep harder to come by? Is your energy level different? Has your weight and metabolism changed? Are you moodier, less focused, or do you just feel different than before? If your answer is yes, you’re not alone.
These changes are common, especially during perimenopause and menopause. Yet many women say they feel unprepared—and unsure where to turn for guidance.
To better support women through every stage of life, MarinHealth is launching the Women’s Lifelong Health & Wellness Clinic, a new program designed to provide personalized, comprehensive care focused on women’s health, vitality, and long-term well-being.
Care That Evolves with You
The clinic is led by Dr. Lizellen La Follette, who brings years of experience caring for women across all stages of life. In this new role, she focuses on helping women understand and manage the health changes that can occur over time—whether related to hormones, metabolism, or overall wellness.
The Women’s Lifelong Health & Wellness Clinic offers in-depth consultations and individualized care plans tailored to each woman’s unique needs. Services include:
- Menopause and hormonal health
- Metabolic health and weight changes
- Gynecologic health
- Bone health and osteoporosis risk
- Sexual and vaginal health
- Preventive health and long-term wellness
Rather than brief, one-size-fits-all visits, the clinic emphasizes time, education, and partnership—so patients can better understand what’s happening in their bodies and what options are available.
A More Connected Approach to Care
One of the defining features of the clinic is its team-based, coordinated approach. When appropriate, patients are connected with specialists across MarinHealth, including:
- Cardiology
- Endocrinology
- Orthopedics
- Behavioral health
- Nutrition and other supportive services
This integrated model ensures that care is not only personalized, but also comprehensive—addressing the full picture of a woman’s health.
You’re Not Alone—and You Have Options
While hormonal changes and midlife health shifts are natural, they don’t have to be something women simply “push through.” Today, there are many effective ways to manage symptoms, support long-term health, and feel more like yourself again.
“Our goal is to provide women with the time and support they need to understand these changes and take an active role in their health,” says Dr. La Follette. “Every woman’s experience is different, and care should reflect that.”
Now Accepting Patients
The Women’s Lifelong Health & Wellness Clinic is now welcoming new patients.
If you’ve been experiencing changes in your health—or simply want a more proactive, personalized approach to your well-being—this clinic offers a place to ask questions, explore options, and develop a plan for lifelong health.
