Hi, I’m Dr. Lillian Medhus.
As a dedicated Women's Health Nurse Practitioner, I am passionate about empowering women to take charge of their sexual wellness, hormone health, and gynecologic care. With extensive training and experience, I strive to provide comprehensive and compassionate care tailored to each patient's unique needs and experiences.
I have undertaken substantial post-graduate training in the holistic treatment of sexual dysfunction, chronic pelvic pain & endometriosis, and hormonal conditions, including peri/menopause and PCOS.
I believe that effective healthcare thrives on strong relationships, which is why I prioritize long visit times that allow us to connect on a personal level. I take the time to listen deeply to your concerns, understand your health history, and collaborate with you on a path to wellness. My approach is rooted in empathy and respect, ensuring you feel comfortable discussing intimate and often sensitive issues.
