Women's health
, expertly led
Menopause and perimenopause care, hormonal health, PCOS management, birth control, recurrent UTI care, and preventive screening including Pap testing — by physicians who specialise in women's health.
Real medicine for real symptoms
Comprehensive women's health care — menopause and perimenopause management (including HRT), PCOS, hormonal weight gain, contraception consultations, and preventive screening. Physician-led, evidence-based, virtual across Ontario.
Hot flashes, brain fog, sleep loss, weight gain, mood changes — they are not "just part of getting older." They are physiological consequences of hormonal change. And there are evidence-based treatments.
Women's health concerns — particularly around menopause, perimenopause, and hormonal change — are too often dismissed or undertreated. Our program is built on the principle that these are real medical issues with effective, evidence-based treatments.
Birth Control & Contraceptive Care
DOS physicians provide birth control consultations, prescriptions, and method switches — including combined and progestin-only pills, and referral for IUD insertion.
Recurrent UTI Assessment & Management
For women experiencing recurrent urinary tract infections, DOS provides assessment, management, and preventive strategies, with referral for further investigation where indicated.
Pap Testing & Preventive Women's Health
Pap testing and preventive women's health screening are available at the DOS Vaughan Clinic. Our physicians also coordinate mammography and bone-density (DEXA) referrals as part of preventive care.

How your program works
Designed to take the time and care these conversations deserve.
Confidential Intake
Complete a thoughtful intake form online — covering symptoms, history, and what you are hoping to address. Our team reviews within one business day.
Lab Work if Needed
Hormones (FSH, estradiol), thyroid, and metabolic panels may be ordered to inform your plan — but for most menopausal women, the diagnosis is clinical.
Specialist Consultation
A virtual visit with your DOS physician to discuss your symptoms in depth, review options, and design a plan that fits your life.
Prescription & Plan Start
If indicated, prescriptions are sent directly to your pharmacy. Plans are individualised — one size does not fit all.
Ongoing Adjustment & Review
HRT often needs fine-tuning over the first few months. Regular virtual check-ins to optimise dose, address side effects, and keep you well.

Our program is open to women at any life stage with menopausal, perimenopausal, or hormonal health concerns.
