Frequently Asked Questions Questions

At Gaya Wellness, we don’t believe in sugarcoating—or drowning you in jargon. Here are the answers to the questions we get asked the most, served up with clarity, compassion, and just a little sass.
1. What type of providers will I be scheduling a consultation with?

Gaya Wellness PLLC takes great pride in employing only top-rated and board-certified physicians. The Gaya Standard is pretty high. You can rest assured that the physicians on our platform are super advocates for their patients and committed to their empowerment. Not only that, but we also have high standards for the local partners we select to work with and market their practice on GAYA Wellness.

You bet we are. We practice the utmost care with your medical record and billing information. We have safeguards to prevent a system breach and regularly conduct compliance training for our employees to ensure your privacy.
It is no longer recommended that a “ Routine Pelvic Exam” be taken annually. A woman still needs to have routine pap smears- but even that is only done every 3-5 years. Of course, there will always be exceptions. When you need an in-person visit for pap smears or a specific problem, we will arrange for you to see one of our trusted local partners who meets the vigorous GAYA Quality and Comfort standards.
We currently accept all Employer HSA/FSA plans not to limit our clients by their insurance Carrier. We are also within the network for Aetna and Cigna, and you may submit your invoice to get reimbursed directly if you have this insurance. We are working diligently towards accepting most insurance carriers and conducting our direct billing soon.
YES! Every service we offer can be paid for using these options.
Gaya Wellness PLLC does not guarantee prescriptions. It is up to the doctor to recommend the best treatment. Our doctors do not issue prescriptions for substances controlled by the DEA, non-therapeutic, and/or certain other drugs that may be harmful because of their potential for abuse.
You should not use Gaya Wellness if you are experiencing a medical or mental health emergency. In the event of a medical emergency, please call 911.

Welcome to 90% of our patients. “Normal labs” don’t mean optimal health. We look deeper—comprehensive panels, advanced testing, and most importantly, your actual experience. If you don’t feel like yourself, there’s a reason. Our job is to find it.

Simple: you meet with your provider online, from anywhere. We handle the testing (we’ll order labs and imaging you can complete locally), review your results, and create a personalized plan. You still get expert, compassionate care—without the waiting rooms or awkward paper gowns.

Yes. When medications or hormone therapies are appropriate, we prescribe them. But we don’t stop there—we combine prescriptions with lifestyle, nutrition, and integrative support so your plan works on every level.

We cover the full spectrum of women’s health, including:

  • Hormonal imbalances (thyroid, estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, insulin)
  • PCOS, perimenopause, and menopause
  • Fertility and preconception planning
  • Postpartum recovery and breastfeeding support
  • Pelvic pain, endometriosis, ovarian cysts, fibroids
  • Sexual health (low libido, dryness, pain)
  • UTIs, infections, and urgent care needs

If it impacts your body, mood, hormones, or confidence—it’s on our list.

Yes—some exams (like Pap smears and certain imaging) must be done in person. Think of us as your ongoing care partner who handles the day-to-day, root cause, whole-woman health, while your in-person gynecologist covers the procedures we can’t do virtually.

Easy. We’ll order the labs and imaging you need at a local facility near you. Once results are in, we break everything down in plain English (no confusing medical mumbo-jumbo), and use them to build your care plan.

Absolutely. This is one of our specialties. From hot flashes and night sweats to mood swings, brain fog, and low libido—we’ve got solutions that combine science, hormone support, and lifestyle strategies.

We specialize in women’s health—period. That means our care is designed for women, by women’s health experts. It’s not generic medicine—it’s health care tailored to your biology, hormones, and life stages.
