I am a Board Certified OB-GYN in Atlanta, Georgia and an expert on bio-identical hormone therapy in menopause. A graduate of University of Maryland School of Medicine, I have been giving advice for over 25 years. I am a speaking consultant for several pharmaceutical companies on the benefits and risks of the controversial hormones – estrogen and progesterone.

I have always been a strong advocate and prescriber of hormone therapy and other natural remedies. I am a realistic believer in bio-identical hormones. I particularly like Suzanne Somer's approach. The monumental and controversial Woman's Health Initiative (WHI) study which dropped it's bombshell in July, 2002 prompted me to start my Email list, DrRehertsAlerts, which currently has over 2000 members. You are invited to join.

There is widespread disagreement in the medical community and in the popular press regarding the indications and safety of hormones. I keep abreast of the most recent and ever-changing arguments for and against their use in medical treatment. Over the years I have accumulated hundreds of articles on this subject which I Email to patients to back-up my advice – I believe medicine is more a science than an art, and research is its foundation. I give many second opinions on this subject – I can be an alternative viewpoint to your personal physician’s recommendations.

I am available to give my views and opinions on hormone therapy, as well as the latest news and research on this ever-changing subject.
