The MEDI Assessment is a thorough hormonal assessment that will address your concerns and symptoms during the menopause transition. The MEDI can also assess other hormonal concerns, such as those related to contraception methods that may affect mood or anxiety, or severe premenstrual symptoms.
Nurse practitioners (NPs) are certified and trained healthcare providers who are authorized to provide a wide range of services to patients. In Ontario, NPs have completed a master’s degree in Advanced Practice Nursing, then they have passed a certification exam and are registered with the College of Nurses of Ontario (CNO). They also must have extensive clinical practice experience before they can register with the CNO as an NP. Once registered, they can provide a range of healthcare services, including diagnosing and treating common illnesses and injuries, prescribing medications, ordering and interpreting diagnostic tests, and providing health education and counselling.
Nurse practitioners in Ontario have an important role in improving access to medical care for patients, particularly in underserved areas of healthcare and remote areas.

There is strong medical data to show that talk therapy is a very effective treatment for many mental health problems. Individual, couples, and group therapy can help people make substantial and long-standing changes in their mental health. There is also evidence that physical brain changes take place during therapy. Patients who go through therapy actually develop new and healthier ways of thinking, feeling and interacting with other people; they feel less stressed and can function better in their day-to-day life.
