Partners in Peri - Hera Menopause
Opened August 2023, by founders Dr Sunita Chelvanayagam and Dr Michelle Cotellessa, Hera menopause is a bespoke menopause and women’s health clinic which strives to change the way all women think about their overall health, enabling them to act pre-emptively, confidently, and scientifically. We are a likeminded team of GP’s who are driven to make a difference in women’s lives.
Our goals are to:
Help restore and maintain our patient’s biopsychosocial capacity enabling them to have fulfilling relationships, careers and long, healthy lives.
Advocate for women within their community and workplace to ensure equality and allowances for all stages of reproductive life particularly during the Perimenopause & Menopause.
Ensure the highest quality and delivery of compassionate care by maintaining and reviewing professional standards and keeping up to date with current evidence by ongoing education. Our doctors are active members of local and international menopause societies, and we regularly give educational talks to other doctors and patients alike.
We believe in ‘slow medicine’ with longer initial and follow up consultation times than regular general practice. Menopause care is a trusted partnership between doctor and patient. We are passionate about all aspects of the hormonal journey, with particular interests in Perimenopause, Menopause, PMS/PMDD, Complex HRT issues and Menopause after Cancer.
We consult face to face at our centrally located clinic at 8 Walcott St Mt Lawley WA but also via telehealth for our remote patients if required. At the current time we service Western Australia only.
