WellFemme is Australia’s most trusted Telehealth service specialising in perimenopause and menopause care, founded by women’s health GP Dr Kelly Teagle in 2018.
WellFemme is Australia’s most trusted Telehealth service specialising in perimenopause and menopause care, founded by women’s health GP Dr Kelly Teagle in 2018. Our team of experienced GPs provide evidence-based consultations, treatment, education and ongoing support through secure video appointments.
For most women though, working with menopause-informed doctors is just the start. Many will need expert advice from other types of health practitioners to manage their own unique health and situational circumstances around midlife.
For example: pelvic floor physiotherapists to help with continence, pelvic pain or sexual issues; dieticians to help with food intolerances, digestive or weight management issues; psychologists or counsellors to help work through situational or psychological problems; and personal trainers, coaches or exercise physiologists to help you overcome physical barriers for lifelong healthy movement and function.
But how do you know which healthcare providers are experienced, caring and motivated to manage the particular issues of women in the menopausal transition?
WellFemme has drawn from our trusted network of menopause-informed healthcare providers to curate a Directory of Doctors and Allied Health practitioners with outstanding commitment and expertise in women’s healthcare.
Our MenoConnect Directory provides a selection of excellent health professionals from around Australia who are passionate about providing the best possible support for women around midlife and beyond.
All our Preferred Providers have been vetted for qualifications, registration and experience; we’ve even consulted their professional referees! All to ensure that you can book a consultation with confidence that your health professional has the experience and skills relevant to managing midlife women’s issues.
Access to multiple health practitioner types, all specialising in caring for menopausal women

WellFemme have appointed a Project Officer to review all Expressions Of Interest for inclusion in our MenoConnect Directory. Once we have confirmed their initial information and qualifications, they are requested to submit a deeper level of information regarding their services, pricing and expertise. Their professional referees are also contacted to validate their stated level of experience and skill.
Once they have passed our vetting process they can officially claim the title of “WellFemme Preferred Provider” and be included in the MenoConnect Directory.
We also collect feedback from Directory users about their experiences with chosen Practitioners to ensure continued standards of care.
No referral is required to book an appointment with any of the Allied Health Practitioners or GP’s listed in the MenoConnect Directory. Where medical specialists do require a referral this will be stated in their Directory profile.
Some Allied Health Practitioners may be able to provide Medicare-rebated services under a GP Care Plan or Mental Health Plan. You can enquire about these services directly with your chosen Practitioner.
WellFemme makes every effort to rigorously screen Directory applicants and verify their claims, however we do not directly supervise or have personal knowledge of the services provided by these independent practitioners.
The Directory is provided free for the community, to help guide women in finding health practitioners with particular skills, commitment and expertise in menopause care. WellFemme takes no responsibility for the services they provide or their outcomes however.
That’s a great question, because there is often a lot of crossover between the types of health services provided by various practitioners. The Directory enables you to filter for particular Practitioner types, but you can also enter search words related to your specific issue, eg. osteopenia, IBS, PMDD. This may help to narrow down Practitioners who specifically mention that issue in their profile.
You can also enter specific information in your contact form on the Practitioner’s Directory profile, to get more information from them. There is no obligation to proceed with a booking or consultation if they don’t seem to be a good fit for you.
