Dr. Susan Baumgaertel is an internal medicine physician with over 30 years of clinical experience. In 2020 she launched MenopauseMenu, a free informational website providing nourishing support for menopause and beyond. 2021 started a new chapter as she stepped away from direct patient care and founded a novel telemedicine business model, myMDadvocate. She uses her extensive lmedical experience and expertise to serve patients by providing medical consultation and advocacy support. Common topics include aging with intent, preventive care, menopause, chronic diseases, autoimmune conditions, weight management, behavioral health, cancer and survivorship support, caregiver stress, coping with chronic pain, and referral advocacy. She also serves as an ally to primary care and specialty physicians and surgeons by helping to “offload” more thorough and deep-dive discussions with patients on medical issues and navigational concerns, a service that our current strained healthcare system often cannot support in a timely manner. She published her first book "The Menopause Menu" in 2023—an all-in-one giftbook, medical guide, and recipe book for navigating menopause.Some of the topics we discussed were:Who Dr. Baumgaertel is and what she doesHow potential postmenopausal issues can be addressed and supported starting in the peri/menopausal time periodNutritional aspects of treating menopauseStress management and its role in addressing menopausal symptomsHow to help with hot flashesHow to help with sleep and brain fogAbout Dr. Baumgaertel’s book, The Menopause MenuLearn more about me or schedule a FREE coaching call: https://www.joyfulsuccessliving.com/Join the Voices of Women Physicians Facebook Group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/190596326343825/Connect with Dr. Baumgaertel:My professional business website, myMDadvocate:https://www.mymdadvocate.com/My free informational and blog website, MenopauseMenu:https://www.menopausemenu.com/My book website page:https://www.menopausemenu.com/book/YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@dr.susanbaumgaertelLinkedIn Profile:http://linkedin.com/in/susan-baumgaertel-mdSoMeDocs Professional Profile:https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/susan-j-baumgaertel-md/Facebook Page—Menopause Menu:https://www.facebook.com/MenopauseMenuMy book on Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CFZC3RT6?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860
