Getting the Menopause Care You Need in Nova Scotia Is Harder Than It Should Be

Many Nova Scotia residents face the same frustrating reality: long waits for specialist appointments, GP offices stretched too thin to focus on hormone health, and providers who aren't specifically trained in menopause medicine.

If you've had your symptoms minimized, spent months waiting for a referral that led nowhere, or struggled to get clear answers about hormone therapy, you are not alone.

NuHaven Health now serves Nova Scotia residents virtually, bringing nurse practitioner-delivered hormone health care directly to you, from wherever you are in NS.

What Is Virtual Menopause Care?

Virtual menopause care means connecting with a qualified nurse practitioner by video, from home or wherever is convenient for you in Nova Scotia. During your appointment, your provider reviews your symptoms, health history, and hormone health goals, then develops a personalized care plan that may include hormone therapy (HRT), non-hormonal options, or a combination approach.

No travel to Halifax required. No specialist waitlist. Just focused, evidence-informed hormone health care from a practitioner who specializes in this area.

Meet Your NuHaven Care Team

Virtual hormone health appointments for Nova Scotia residents are led by Angela McGraw, DNP, NP, MSCP, Nurse Practitioner and Clinical Director of NuHaven Health. Angela holds the Menopause Society Certified Practitioner (MSCP) designation, the recognized gold standard in menopause care expertise, and one of very few practitioners in Canada to have achieved it.

Angela brings deep clinical experience in hormone therapy (HRT and non-hormonal options), perimenopause and menopause management, and medical weight loss, with a patient-centred approach focused on listening, validating your experience, and building a care plan that works for your life.

Alongside clinical care, Gineen Nicholls, Women's Holistic Hormone Health Coach and CanFitPro Certified PTS, supports patients in building the lifestyle habits that complement hormone health treatment, including movement strategies, metabolic health, nutrition guidance, and stress resilience for women navigating menopause.

Our psychologist, Jo-Anne Burt, is also available to Nova Scotia residents for mental health support and counselling.
