What Is WellFemme

What Is WellFemme

A Telehealth Menopause Clinic Run by GPs

WellFemme is Australia’s first dedicated telehealth service specialising in perimenopause and menopause care. Founded by Dr Kelly Teagle, a GP with lived experience of early menopause, WellFemme was created to improve access to quality care for women across the country — particularly those in rural and regional areas. Our team of experienced GPs provide evidence-based consultations, education and ongoing support through secure video appointments. We work collaboratively with each patient’s usual GP, ensuring continuity of care while offering expert insight into managing menopausal symptoms with both hormonal and non-hormonal approaches.

Our Origins & Purpose

Founded in 2018 by Dr Kelly Teagle, WellFemme was inspired by her own early menopause experience to ensure equitable access to menopause expertise—especially for rural, regional and underserved women.
