The Nafsi Institute

Medicine for the Modern Woman.

Women's health, done differently: hormones, metabolism, sleep and breath, treated together by one physician.

After forty, a woman's body changes in ways medicine has been slow to take seriously. The weight that will not move. The sleep that will not come. The fog, the heat, the heart that races at 3 a.m. Too often these are sent to five different specialists, or dismissed as stress. I built the Institute so that they are heard, measured and treated in one place, by a physician who is board-certified in internal medicine, pulmonary and critical care and a Menopause Practitioner. These changes are real, measurable and treatable, and we approach them as partners.

The Nafsi Institute

Hormone therapy, prescribed with precision.

Hormones are measured before treatment begins and rechecked at every adjustment. Estradiol is transdermal and FDA-approved, and testosterone is dosed to the normal female range, with blood levels to confirm it.

  • Symptoms tracked with a validated menopause score
  • Sleep, heart and bone health assessed alongside hormones
  • Pelvic floor therapy referral when symptoms call for it
  • A program of Rockford Pulmonary Clinic, with Rockford Research Institute's clinical research in the same building
A note on testosterone pellets: we do not place hormone pellets. Pellets are not FDA-approved for women, cannot be adjusted or removed once implanted, and frequently raise testosterone above the normal female range.
