Redefining Menopause Care for Every Australian Woman
WellFemme is a Telehealth menopause clinic, providing evidence-based menopause information and treatment in collaboration with clients’ usual General Practitioner.
We manage a collective of extraordinary clinicians who care about menopause and perimenopause, supporting one another to continually develop our knowledge and treat patients.
WellFemme’s doctors are passionate about helping menopausal women reach their best potential. “Shared experiences are empowering experiences” says Dr Kelly Teagle. “This happens when we embrace and discuss what’s happening to us. Normalising menopause breaks down the fear and frees women to explore the potential of their “new normal”. That is WellFemme’s vision: healthy, happy women.”
Dr Kelly Teagle - Founder, CEO & Clinical Director
Dr Kelly Teagle graduated in Medicine from the University of Queensland in 2001 and served as a Medical Officer in the Royal Australian Air Force before specializing as a GP in women’s reproductive and sexual healthcare. After experiencing early menopause at age 42, Kelly was motivated to deepen her expertise in menopausal care. In late 2018, she founded WellFemme Telehealth to ensure women across Australia could access expert menopause support regardless of location. WellFemme now serves thousands of grateful patients nationwide.
Based in Canberra, Kelly sees patients via Telehealth, manages WellFemme, writes health articles, and advocates for improved women’s health policy. Her leadership style is collaborative, values-driven, and deeply empathetic—building WellFemme into a movement transforming how Australia supports women through midlife and beyond.
