Dr. Dawn Frankwick

For 38 years, Dr. Dawn Frankwick has walked alongside women through every chapter of their health journey. She has welcomed over 10,000 new lives into the world and supported thousands more as they faced the physical and emotional changes that each stage of life brings.

 

Today, her heart lies in hormonal health. With a decade in functional medicine and over 20 years spent navigating her own menopause journey, she knows menopause is far more than numbers on a lab report.

 

It’s personal.

 

That’s why she believes every woman deserves both knowledge and choices. As a physician, Dr. Frankwick is passionate about clear communication. She loves transforming complex medical details into simple, empowering information, so women can make confident decisions about their health.

 

Her approach blends evidence-based medicine with truly personalized care because every woman’s experience with hormonal changes is unique. Dr. Frankwick wants each patient to leave their conversations feeling understood, informed, and ready to take their next step with confidence.

What Is Functional Medicine?

Functional medicine takes a holistic approach to healthcare, weaving together the many threads that influence a person’s well-being. Instead of focusing on isolated symptoms, it explores the broader landscape of health. This might include:

 

  • Medical and family history
  • Hormonal health
  • Nutrition
  • Sleep 
  • Exercise
  • Stress
  • Metabolic health
  • Environment
  • Lifestyle 
  • Laboratory findings

 

The goal is to better understand your individual health picture and use that information to develop a personalized approach to care.
