I’m Dr. Aoife O’Sullivan, a medical physician (MD) with almost 30 years of training and experience, and my current work is dedicated to the comprehensive care of women in midlife.

I’m a proud member of the North American Menopause Society, the International Menopause Society, and the International Society for the Study of Women’s S*xual Health.

Along with my two menopause-besties and colleagues, I co-host an educational podcast, centered around women’s midlife healthcare, called “The Dusty Muffins”, .

I founded Portland Menopause Doc, my telemedicine practice, to serve women in Oregon and Washington and support them as they navigate the complexities of menopause with evidence-based, individualized care and shared decision-making.

In recent years, I’ve focused exclusively on menopause and midlife health—and honestly, I love it. Helping women feel like themselves again during this transition is some of the most rewarding work I’ve ever done.

I regularly teach residents, medical societies, and professional organizations across Oregon, and I partner with businesses and community groups to bring menopause awareness, in general and in the workplace, into the spotlight.

You can find me online as , where I share education, bust myths, and encourage real talk about midlife and hormone health. I’m also a frequent podcast guest, a member of the powerhouse Menoposse community, and a fierce advocate for equity in women’s healthcare.

Together with three other incredible physicians, I co-founded the Portland menopause collective , focused on educating the public and clinicians on perimenopause, menopause and hormone therapy.

My mission is simple: to empower, educate, and elevate the care women receive in midlife—and to make sure they never feel dismissed, invisible, or alone.

It’s a cute and funny term, the Menoposse, but it does have a more serious side, it is a collection of clinicians and advocates who are fighting for women’s care to emerge from the dark ages. I’m delighted to be a part of it ☘️

The Menoposse is growing and getting stronger everyday! Here is a list of incredible physicians, clinicians, thought leaders and policymakers who are knowledgeable, compassionate and paving the way for contemporary menopause care for all of us. Thank you so much for your hard work and support. (artwork cred)

A landmark article was published this week. Written by Dr. Vonda Wright, an orthopaedic surgeon and her team. Every single day she sees the musculoskeletal effects due to our dropping levels of hormones during the menopause transition. They paid to have it open access so you can read and print it and give a copy to all your friends, and all your doctors - unfortunately they were not taught any of this in their training!

Fifty-one percent of humans are born with ovaries. As the ovarian production of estrogen diminishes in midlife and ultimately stops, it is estimated that more than 47 million women worldwide enter ...

This is all I ever need with my patients, TIME together. If you have time, and aren’t rushed, you can get to the bottom of almost anything. My patients usually tell me exactly what’s going on with them, most of my job is listening to them and putting the pieces together. We make a great team 💞 ✨

I would love to see you at the .collaborative

Don’t waste any more time going from doctor to doctor and hoping the next one knows about menopause and women’s midlife healthcare. Most patients that I see have spent years, and thousands of dollars, seeing all kinds of providers and buying all kinds of supplements. When you see one of the clinicians at the collaborative we really know what we’re doing and we will get you feeling alive and back to yourself ✨

Oh my gosh, this really speaks to me!!! Thank you for making this reel

I took six months off work, unpaid, and did every menopause course and training I could find. I then came back and incorporated all of that knowledge into my practice of general medicine.
That's after 6 years of med school and a 3 year medical residency in Ireland. Then I moved to the US and completed a second 3 year residency in the US - during those 12 years I was taught NOTHING about midlife women's care. I then practiced medicine for another almost-20 years and never came across anything to do with this topic in all the hours of continuous medical education I had to competed to remain board-certified. Thats 50 hours a year!!!

Looking back its as though women just disappear after we give birth or turn 40/50. It's hard to wrap your brain around it.

The biggest problem now is that you can't give good menopause care in a 15 minute visit. For me, I need at least an hour with my patient during that first visit. That's just not how the insurance companies (who rule everything in medicine now) will allow us to function. So it really does end up being a specialty for all those reasons!

Wonderful post, thank you for opening this conversation Dr. Ghofrany!

⏰ At the Collaborative we get a full
hour to spend with our patients at their first appointment.
Because we have that time together you will feel heard and seen.

📚 Our clinicians have worked in medicine and healthcare for years and are highly trained in perimenopause and menopause care. We use the most up-to-date, evidence-based medicine and we practice shared decision-making with our patients.

🚫 You will not be gas-lit or demeaned at the collaborative. We provide compassionate and empathetic care to our patients.

💻 When you work their way through Dr. Hirsch’s 8 hour comprehensive course before I see you, and you have that deeper level of knowledge, we get even more out of that time together.

🦸🏻‍♀️ After our visit you can join the patient FB group and continue to receive support and education from our group and from other women dealing with similar life and health experiences. We host lively community events twice a month.

💞 It really is a special group to work with and we care deeply about our patients. You can tell from our testimonials that our patients know that we’re a team

✨ If you’ve been considering a visit withcollaborative, what are you waiting for? If you’re spending your time and energy hitting dead ends, go straight to the source of the best care available.

💖 For those already part of our crew, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Thank you for trusting us with your menopause journey.
