Our Mission
We know that we have estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone receptors incorporated in our brains, hearts, bones, breasts, muscles, liver, blood vessels, skin, and joints. Loss (menopause) and rollercoaster hormonal levels (pregnancy, perimenopause, and breastfeeding) not only affect our reproductive system but ALL of our body systems NOT related to reproduction. We are more than our reproductive systems- we are whole persons.
Dr. Lairamore’s goal is to equip women through shared decision making processes using evidenced-based medicine and listening to each patient’s personalized challenges and goals to determine an individualized plan to best support all seasons of a woman’s life.
Why Postpartum and Menopausal Medicine?
The postpartum time period with the loss of normal female cycling hormones is a "mini" menopause. My practice is to support and alleviate the changes in these seasons.

Testimonials
KR-
“Dr Lairamore is a strong advocate for women’s health and well being in the ever changing area of pre and postmenopausal care. She took the time to listen to my history and provided me an individualized plan that included taking into account my hypothyroidism and other medical conditions, reviewing my labs, nutrition, natural treatments, and prescriptions.
Dr Lairamore has done a wonderful job assisting me in successfully navigating my hormonal and aging journey. I am extremely grateful to have found her.”

“I truly could not have breastfed successfully without Dr Lairamore’s support. From the very beginning, she brought so much knowledge, encouragement, and compassion into our journey-especially as a twin mom. Her home visits were incredibly comforting and convenient during such a vulnerable time, and her integrative approach made all the difference.
Not only did she help guide us through proper nutrition and latch techniques, but her OMT treatments were life-changing for easing the physical discomfort that came with carrying twins. When one of my babies needed bottles in the hospital, she gave us the confidence and guidance to transition to successful breastfeeding once we got home.
What I also loved was how she included my husband in our sessions and helped us create a plan that supported our entire family. Her expertise, patience, and genuine care empowered us every step of the way.
If you are a new parent and want the best support possible, I cannot recommend Dr Lairamore enough. She is truly extraordinary, and we are forever grateful for her role in our breastfeeding success and our early parenting journey.”

“Working with Dr Lairamore was truly life-changing for me and my baby. I had several complications from oversupply leading to clogged ducts, mastitis, and my baby having painful gassy stomach. She gave recommendations in feeding and pumping changes especially when I went back to work, herbs to restore my gut/skin biome and prevent clogs, and OMT to treat my mastitis without using antibiotics.
She offered patience, encouragement, and knowledge during each stage when I needed support and was ready to give up. Thanks to her guidance, I gained confidence in breastfeeding and learned to truly enjoy the bonding experience with my baby. She helped me to gently wean and dry up my milk when I felt my breastfeeding journey was complete. I can’t recommend her enough to any new mom looking for compassionate and expert help.”
